Thank you, Ezra, for your input! I agree, I need LOTS of practice. :-) I wish I had started when I was younger, but better late than never! I appreciate your kind words.]]> Hear Here aurora https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378371 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378366 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 21:40:56 +0000 Hear Here EzraplaysEzra https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378366 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378365 Wed, 26 Sep 2012 21:17:09 +0000 Hear Here Hobson https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378365 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378291 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 22:15:11 +0000
It's not like we had sunshine always
There were umbrella years
When all we felt was inside out
No shelter from the tears]]> Hear Here aurora https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378291 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378265 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 04:11:42 +0000
I really appreciate your taking the time to give input, so grateful to both of you! :)]]> Hear Here aurora https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378265 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378262 Sun, 23 Sep 2012 20:48:23 +0000
Your singing is very good. You have a beautiful voice. You're right on pitch, even with some difficult intervals. You sound relaxed and controlled, yet expressive.

Don't worry about needing to do several takes before you get it right. It gets easier, but it will almost always take a few tries before you're happy with what you record.

Consider changing the second line from "Just you and me and us" to "Just you and me, just us."

My personal opinion is that there are too many different metaphors in this one verse:

It's not like we had sunshine always
we had our share of rain
climbing separate mountains sometimes
or on a different train]]> Hear Here Hobson https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378262 https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378256 Sun, 23 Sep 2012 03:39:24 +0000
I don't have any goals other than to play and sing for my own enjoyment and (hopefully) that of family and friends. I'm not destined for greatness but I'm fine with that. :-)

Thanks again!]]> Hear Here aurora https://guitarnoise.forum/hear-here/first-song-thoughts-appreciated/#post-378256
