I think it's a good song, but I wouldn't sing it as a duet.
It's a "guy after breakup" song, so kick the girl out of the chorus.
Asterian can easily carry this song home on his own.

Thanks Misha for your kind and positive comment smile deja vu, yeah, I just read some tv/movie reviews and most of the complaints were that the idea had already been used, so probably that is the future for all art, there is no more room for original ideas (so it doesn't matter whether AI or human has generated the art...). And the familiar feeling is more and more present, this melody reminded me of... another song of mine whose melody I "got" in a dream, so ideas seem to come from the mysterious subconscious level...

What a powerful statement ... yes!

We liked the irony of the soft, mellow band and vocals with the lyric shouting an “I can’t take it any more!” attitude.

We think you nailed the Waits vibe.

The BiaB session crew did a great job (excellent solo) as did you with the mix.

Well done,

J&B


Thanks Janice & Bud for your pleasant comment smile Glad to notice that you understood the irony and Waits vibe.

Your song is very interesting and not at all mainstream. Thanks for posting.
Mark


Thanks Mark for your nice feedback smile I can fully recommend Synthesizer V, the quality is amazing compared to Vocaloids and it is very easy and quick to get an excellent vocal track.

But this is very nice. When the harmony vocals came in at 'No more, no more' I had to smile, because I liked that very much.

I also heard another song from you recentl, but not on the forum. I have to find out what it is called, but it was also beautiful.
I'm coming back o that one.
I noticed you're getting more handy with the AI-vocals with every song.
But what I liked most are the songs themselves. Your creativity is increasing at 'god speed'.

Very good!
Hans


Thanks Hans for your very pleasant review of my song smile I hope you'll enjoy my coming songs also, even if my creativity is decreasing wink

Thanks B.D. for your kind comment smile Well, these themes are universal, that's why I thought it would be okay to have a female vocalist in the chorus part also. But I partly agree, the last verse is more from the male point of view, so the last chorus could be sung only by the male vocalist(s).

Janne,

I'll leave it to others to discuss the lyric content and theme! I
like the backtrack you've constructed especially The Cajon folk drums! Melody and chord structure are excellent as usual with your tunes!

Thanks, TB

Thanks Torrey, I appreciate your heartwarming comment smile Glad you liked the Cajon drums, for some reason I have preferred more calm, folky RDs recently.

It looks like I'm about a month late here. Sorry about that.

I like the opening lines:
No more break-up songs
no more heartsick blues
all the million ways
to say goodbye
have been used

Good!

I'm with Ray about the harmony singer.

I see this as a song in a musical.

Asterian as Tom Waited..... Dcuny Nailed it


That was interesting. Some rather interesting, unique and quite unexpected musical choices.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Thanks Mr. Storm for your nice comment smile No need to worry about being late, this forum has been quite slow lately, people are hopefully enjoying summer smile Hmmm just wondering what kind of musical that would be...
