I suspect you heard the remix. wink

Regarding the "rhyming" issue, I'm really strict on that, but I think that "can't believe" and "make believe" would be accepted by most traditionalists, kind of like "show more" and "know more" would be OK.

My only issue is the ending doesn't really meet the standards that the rest of the track set up. Maybe instead of what you have, make an accapela final 2-bar phrase--after all, the vocal ensemble is the gem of this, so why not finish it off with a vocal flourish?
Heh. I had initially thought of doing an instrumental fade, but that song was already long enough. Then I had a quick chaotic ending where the instruments stopped at different points, with an acoustic guitar that kept strumming until it stopped. You know, the standard BiaB ending. It was cool, but I finally went with a short ending.

I did consider a vocal tag, but was a bit burnt out at that point. If I go back for a remix, I'll certainly give it more thought.

Thanks for listening and the suggestions!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
