This is a song that I wrote about my Dad. For better or for worse, when I've played this song for my friends and co-workers, several of them started sobbing, even the ones that still have their Dads--just warning you.....

My question is:

do you think this song is a little bit tooooooo sad?
Like "depressing" sad?

Great song! I like how you crafted the lyrics and how it sounds.

 

A slight criticism, though: your voice seems a bit muted/quiet in this song. I know it's a somber song and not meant to be loud but in my opinion (I want to stress this part ) adding a bit more volume would make it better.

 

Keep it up!

 

Thanks for the compliments!

Yeah, you may be right, the vocals could be a bit louder.  In fact, when I mix songs that I  know I'll pitch to the film/TV contacts I have, in hopes of getting a placement on film or TV (believe it or not, back in 2007 I had one of my songs placed on one episode of the ABC TV soap opera "One Life To Live", which is a show that came to an end last year I think), I usually boost the vocals louder than usual, because music supervisors of TV shows tend to like the vocals a little louder in the mix.

 

Oh, and thanks also for adding a comment to my new video "I'll See YOu In My Dreams"--female version!!
