I like the concept of the song. And it's fun. Go BoSox!
I think its a little fast. Just a couple of bpm less, and the humor might have more impact; be more understandable.
Nice work. Thanks!

Haha, pretty corny but fun. I hate the Red Sux and the Spankees, so they can both go to hell. 
Mix sounds pretty good. It sounds like you're straining vocally or not belting it out hard enough. You've already got everything tracked so a drop in key may be out of the question, but I think it would help. Musically it's pretty tight and well played. Fun little song. Women can be such a pain in the ass.

I agree that perhaps you could bring it down in key. But everything else sounds nice (although I personally like the drums a bit more up in the mix).

Thanks for the listen. I'm real concerned about the electric guitar sound. Just can't get those kinds of parts sounding like I hear on other records. I think I gotta get a good amp. Maybe when My divorce is final and I get some of my money...
I can drop it a whole-step...just four tracks. And reduce the tempo with the magic of midi.
I thought if I sang it real high and strained, it'd have more emotion. It's a whole-step up and out of my toppest comfort zone...my daughter is always accusing me of not getting enough ooomph in the vocal. It sounds ...and is...strained. I just wasn't sure if anybody else would hear it that way. Got the answer.
I haven't watched baseball since Yaz played for the Sox. The tune's autobiographical, but it was while I was practicing or recording that the pile-on always happened. I figured more guys would relate to ball games. We can all relate to the pile-on, I think.
Think I'll load it up and make the changes. TX
Yeah, Rokket...Listening a low levels now, the kit gets lost. I mixed and mastered real loud...shoulda checked it lower. Learning curve.

I've been able to capture some really good tones from a 10-watt practice amp and make them sound really huge. It's not so much the amp as how you mic it and which mics you use. A little more time spent before tracking and messing with mic placement will reveal a whole slew of things you hadn't heard before. Devote a few days to messing with mic placement and not concentrating on the song. You'll be glad you did.
That's why we all come here, isn't it?

What makes you believe you'll have any money after the divorce is final?
Nice work. Everyone else above took all the stuff I'd have offered.

I brought the kit, bass gt ,and guits up, spread the guits a little, used another verb, changed out a couple strainier vocal parts, borrowing from better parts, and tried selective compression and EQ to smooth the whole out. Vox sounds better buried in the mix more, I think. I got rid of some irritants?
The instrumental..the one that counts....might sound too sluggish at a slower tempo? I tried moving the kit fromm 144 to 138...something happens to the feel and sound of the kit...needs to be entirely re-done.
Gonna give it a few days and get back to it.
