I feel like there are some notes missing for some reason... Is there perhaps a second guitar/bass part to this song? Perhaps I'm simply remembering it poorly... A number of parts just don't sound complete, however.

keepwalking responds:

Yes I shortened the song at the end because my ipod was falling from my foot :)

scratcy

Great song, but recording issues make it hard to listen to on anything but low volumes.

Kingbastard responds:

yeah, I fixed that issue on the master. This and a lot of my other acoustic material was just recorded using an onboard mic on a Boss Micro BR so the quality is really not that great, but a little bit of x-noise & eq tweaking sorts it out to a more listenable level, personally i like a bit of noise too, as long as it's not too intrusive:P

Sounds a bit scratcy

Sounds like it would be good, but is rendered intolerable by the excessively scratchy guitar playing through the entire song. Go back and clean it up. (and people, don't vote neg until you actually listen to the song)

Moon-Shadow responds:

This is apparently the unmixed version, or according to Max it is.
We'd love to rerecord this but we just don't have the time.

Thanks for the listen!

sounds good.....

until the mic seems to screw up around 0:45. FIX THAT. I don't care if you spend an hour repeating your recording process, you have to fix that, it's killing your song.

demented2005 responds:

Actually i have an updated version :)
I should prob get rid of this one and update it

"if you're gonna make it soft, make it meaningful"

and you did. Once yet AGAIN, this isn't my favorite style, but I consider it a success. Perhaps you'd like to change your comments on the song's rating now. Also, thanks for not cussing (as far as i can tell) in the course of this song. Three straight 10s isn't that bad a way to start off a song's rating history.

demented2005 responds:

haha, no cussing in this one :)
Tried to make this one a little more family friendly
thanks alot for the nice comment man :)

repetition

Don't spend a large chunk of your song repeating 4 words. You could get away with that in a longer song, but this is a bit too short to tolerate it. I like where the song sounded like it was going, it was just a bit too short. The ending kinda just cuts off, maybe change "It's a new day" to more of a chorus, which would solve the problem with then ending if added own there. Personally, I'm considering this a work in progress, but hey, it's your work, do (or don't) whatever you want with it. Oh, and profanity will never get you off of newgrounds and into the big-time because you're not a rapper, and I really hope you don't, because this shows potential, but needs a bit of editing work

demented2005 responds:

haha i read all your reviews, thanks so much :)
Yea the short ones are WIP.
Plus i hate the ending need to change some of that.
And i heard the song tonight gonna be a good night or whatever.
And was curious to see if i could do something like that.
haha :)

can't hear

vocals need to be turned up, as well as the overall volume of the song, nice piano melody it occasionally clashes with the guitar.... Mostly though, TURN UP THE VOLUME FOR THE SINGER!!! CAN'T HEAR IT!!!! Live recording's no excuse

HannsB responds:

hi lordsthief, maybe no excuse, but there is nothing i could do, because:
two tracks with all on it are two tracks with all on it, one for the left, one for the right. thats all i have. so what shall i say and do?

great

just so you know, i've given out only fifteen 10/10s
only comment: some of the lines don't sound like they have right number of syllables minor rewording might help it achieve pure distilled awesomeness.

guitardude77 responds:

Thank you very much for the honest review, and support! Haha. Yeah, I know some words sound like they drag on for a bit too long. Thanks for the insight though. =)

Awesome

make more. might want to keep out the "suicidal" bit, and it's not my favorite style of vocals, but you did good here. also, turn up the volume on the vocals

giftedbuttwisted responds:

Haha dude you do realize this is a remix of the Sean Kingston song right? I didn't write it.

amazing

get out there, save up to bribe someone to put you on radio, buy a tv-ad and just play this song, it'll be worth it. if you can pump out even one of these a month by working non-stop, then it'll be worth it a dozen times over, reach high, this is an unbelievable piece, it's great to find something like this on newgrounds, but it deserves a better audience, too many freaks on this site, and it doesn't get you much money........

Ic3m4n responds:

Thanks a lot! Thats really motivating (something i really needed today ^^)
But i just make the music i want to listen...and if others can enjoy these tracks too, i am more than happy ;) Music should always be free! So i will never sell anything...copy, spread, enjoy and have fun.
