Thanks for the compliments Torrey! I kept the vocals low on the verse parts since my voice had a hard time hitting those low notes sounding like a moan. I didn't want to boost that! smile

Thanks Robert! I will do what I can to get something out in the future.

Good call, with each passing of the chorus phrase I stacked more instruments and vocal layers until the last chorus at the end.

Thanks Shigeki! I thought maybe a key of F or G would have been better than the C Major I chose. I will make sure to use a higher key on the next song I do!

Janne, you are very good in that description! I actually modelled the Tonal Balance in Ozone 8 Mastering to the Weezer song, "Say It Isn't So". Good call!

Thanks for the compliment Tommy! I won't be cranking out songs near as often as most folks but will do what I can.

Thanks Bud! That's the IT Geek in me!
