Ok...where do I start...? I believe that this is my first post under the "Songwriting" forum. I'm basically a one man band, and can't write/rehearse songs with a band. So I basically draft songs on my DAW...once I'm comfortable with the composition, I retrack everything.
This is where I'm at right now...I have a rough draft of a song and I have a few concerns/questions. The first is that it is 7:20 long...maybe that's ok...not sure.
As mentioned, this song will be completely retracked and the vocals are VERY clumsy...still working them out.
Here is my proposal...anyone willing to listen and provide feedback regarding the composition will get both rep points AND 100 'Thank you' recognition entries in this thread. With all of that and $.50, you can buy some coffee.
Seriously, here are some spots I'm looking at:
3:50 - is this change ok?
4:30 - is this part too long?
5:05 - is this re-entry awkward?
6:05 - is the harmony during the chorus more appropriate
6:40 - is the song too long? Is this point a candidate for shortening?
This song has some meaning to me since it was inspired by a true event from many years ago.
