If someone wrote something like this for me, I'd consider it the best gift I ever received. smile My husband liked it. I had to sing it over and over. The first few times I would tear up and had to quite...especially on the line..you honor me, teach me with every word, every deed...cause he always has.
Agree with Kevin that the vocal should be more up front. If you're like I was, you might have a subconscious (or even conscious) desire to keep them low. I probably do but I also try to sing loudly and also not sure how to make them more upfront with audicity..any suggies??? Possibly because you don't like the sound of your own voice. I am not wild about it...LOL A lot of folks don't when they are just starting - because it sounds so different than they expect. It's all in their head though. smile I like the sound of your voice on this and want to hear it better! Thank you Scott...if you have time check out my newest song on the board...make you change. It is more, lady Gaga, stying...haha
I didn't feel that the verses and chorus were too similar. What DID seem a little too consistent though was the phrasing throughout. You use a lot of pauses - which is effective. But it might be more effective if you use them in either the verse or chorus but not both. Would give a little more dynamics to the song if you changed that up a little. All one opinion of course - and I'm no pro. I may consider that. I did the pauses mostly to add to the meaning and how one may naturally speak, of course the music made need for more pausing, in places

Bet your husband has a big smile on his face though smileThanks Scott. I did it for him for Christmas. He deserves so much more.

Scott
