New Song - Any Thoughts Welcome!

[Nola]

On the mix or the song. Thanks! I think the mix is a bit muddy...but retro? I kinda liked it muddy.

Here are the lyrics:

You can be happy and
Not be sad and
Still want to get out of it
Maybe tonight I am

Name the time and place
And I'll meet you there
We have to get out of here
Maybe tonight we will

Only want to be
Only want to see
Which way the wind blows
And only how
Which way the wind blows
And only how

Take me back to then
When you were a friend
I would do anything
For that again

Oh which way the wind blows
And only how
Oh which way the wind blows
And only how

My thoughts are, take some shine off off the vocal reverb (If your reverb lets you EQ the verb, pull down the above 4-5K area and maybe EQ out below 1K). You're right, a bit muddy, but I think if you worked the EQ on the source vocals, pull down the 250 HZ area (sweep to find you area), I think the mix would still be to your liking and not sound muddy.
