Hi, Ron of the DC.

I was probably having way too much fun. At some point, I decided to not worry about matching the original melody, and I think it shows.

(Are there slight vocal glitches at 1:48 and 2:58? Maybe?)
Maybe, but I'm not hearing them. frown

I'll have another listen later.

Your mix sounds open and clear despite the swirl of activity, that's really cool, too.
After posting last night, I had another listen this morning and chopped out most of the instruments on the intro, and added the acoustic guitar. I also did a couple more cuts at another point... I think it was the second bridge.

I love the "wall of sound" that you get when everything is playing together, but then go back and wonder "Does this really need to be playing here?" and end up cutting out all these loverly bits.

But I'm happy the mix has some clarity.

Thanks again for the exhaustive notes, they are very helpful and a lot of fun. smile
I'd actually written half a song's worth of lyrics for something entirely different. And when I started working on the melody, I had something entirely different in mind.

Of course, all that went out the window the minute I started working on it. laugh

I also thought about starting with a string trio on the intro, and fade in the other instruments. That went away pretty quickly, too. But I added a new fade at the end that sort of reflects that idea.

Thanks for stopping to listen and comment - I appreciate it!

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