I tried my hand at another pop ballad. I wanted to try a style which allowed me to fit in a lot of backing vocals and some harmonies. I didn't go too complex with the arrangement and vocals at this stage. But I liked some of the results.

I'm not sure my voice really works with this style... or maybe I just need a lot of singing lessons! But I do like these kind of songs and I think it's something I can work on.

Style is _CHILPOP.STY (Electronic Chillout Pop)

Nice work on this Delightfully catchy and upbeat - easy to follow, and proof that sometimes less is more. I'm getting some strong 90's pop vibes on this one. Really well textured too, and a nice change of pace compared to the usual Band-in-a-Box output.

Thanks for sharing!

Sounds like you did pretty well with your pop ballad here...
Your vocal was clear & easy to follow...
But I sure wish I had some lyrics to read while I listened to your song.

Thanks for the comments and taking the time to listen. I have to admit that 90s pop is the period that inspires a lot of my music. I might have to try something a bit more modern next time!

That's a good idea, I'll start putting some lyrics up with my songs from now on.

Richard,
Good stuff! Nice pop composition!

"not sure my voice really works with this style... or maybe I just need a lot of singing lessons!"
lol this is funny!

I think your voice works very good with this tune. Unique and personal.
I took a few "master" classes with couple of established singers/teachers, just to better understand a theory behind the voice. Sure, it was fun and educational and I learned a few very valuable "points", but the best "teacher" is to practice. The more you do it, the better you get. Hope to hear more.

Thank you for posting!
