Firstly, I'm not so sure about the 1,2,3,4 count - it sounds really goofy! I'm not sure if you were going for that - but to my ears it sounds goofy... I'm also not too keen on the falsetto "ooohs" at the start either...

THe mix is really good, maybe the guitars could be a little more distinguished but overall it is good! Not my favorite musical style by any means so I can't really comment much more than it sounds fine to my ears!

I'll second everything said by docaroo. The only thing was i thought the guitar was just a hair too trebley for me. Still, very well done.

I like the main vocal when it starts at :20. Really nice work in the performance there. The ac rhythm guitar is very well played but it sounds kind of thin and hard. The vocal bits at the intro and ending aren't as effective as the rest I think. Good song with lots of potential.

pretty clever lyrics....

i agree about the falsetto.... it doesn't seem necessary here. i think the guitar could be tweaked to bring out more mids and bass. it is a catchy song though, i'd like to hear a redone version when it improves.

To me, this is Bod Dylan finaly learned how to sing.

Nice performance, nice song. Very catchy and tastefull.
Needs more bass and less treble.
Anyway - Well done!

thanks for all the response. much appreciated. i see what you guys mean about the guitar being a little trebly. i listened back to it, and it sounds a bit harsh. still trying to find that sweet spot to mic my acoustic. only got the B1 mic a week ago. will keep practicing. thanks again.
