Description

I posted this one earlier today and became aware of some flaws in the mix. So i have taken the tips from Aclarke and done something about it. Now it has crisp sound with upfront vocals! A great tune, believe it or not ;). I have also changed the artwork, now you can se a tanned Selters, looking very dangeorus!

Lyrics

a word isnt always what you need
sometimes the silence makes me breathe
breathing out load in wide open space
screaming of joy, by the sight of your face

nothing must change

A word isnt always the good deed
sometimes they even make me bleed
bleeding inside and leaving a trace
screaming out loud by the things that you say

nothing must change

	Now this is what I was talking about! Things are in better sonic spaces now (you might want to lower the level of the piano a little before the flute comes in). This is so much better, Selters! Excellent work. Now all we have to do is get you a Boston Red Sox hat! :) Check out my latest song called By Your Window

	Dangerous, yes, in that Yankees hat... I think this is your best one yet, selters... It's got this interesting pop rock sensibility... A very strong vocal, and a very strong vocal mix... Sounds like you're having fun with the keyboard! Ed Check out my latest song called Uno/I Like The Way... (with Macaudion, SISTERS, ktb, and ziti)

	Nice A nice, feel-good song. Good, clear vocals and good guitar accompaniment. I also liked the little flute in the background - nice touch. Good job! Check out my latest song called Rise

You Still Have the Gift
Of creating beautiful melodies in very pleasant frameworks. The first
two lines of the lyrics are really great also. They really set the mood of
the song right away in a very poetic manner. In fact, generally
speaking, your lyrics have been great also. I would just like to see you
step out a little and write someting a little longer with more variation in
theme. But I'm not taking away from the fact that this is another great
little pop song that would have enough lyrics for most folks.

	Lush fuzzies Yeah, you got your vocals up front and personal...the way I like it. The piano is too loud and meanders too much. Use the piano in intro, at ends of phrases, in a break, but don't let it step all over your soothing voice.

pretty, but still rough
Very nice song structure & melody, it sounded very pretty. I liked the
gentle singing of the nice lyrics. But it really sounded like instruments
were slightly out of tune to me. Also the midrange sounded really
boomy to me, may want to adjust the equalization a little. Sorry, but it
sounds like maybe only "a little must change" on this one. :-) But I
would love to see this fixed up some more, it is really a great song.
ttfn,
Drakonis

	Wonderful I love your vocals on this. Nicely done song here. I like the piano too with the guitar and the addition of the flute. I do agree there could be a little more variation in the melody but as it is, this is really good Slimmie Check out my latest song called Waiting For You 'Feat' David Paul Newell & Slimmie

	piano i agree the piano is a little loud at points. your voice is lovely as always. nice us of instruments. i think if the pian were a little lower it would keep it from overpowering the vocals at points. Check out my latest song called Broken Spirit

Unfair
I should refuse to comment on yours.

I like everything you do. You make me think "I would have done that!"
This assumes I had a clue what to do? I am not tone deaf, but have no
idea how to create actual music.

I think if I was to get hyper-critical I'd say that everything seems on the
same level. It would be nice if some of music came in higher or lower
than other parts of the song. Lyrics seemed to fight for their place.

Also, song just ends. You rule though, so is sort of like saying, "Best
steak I ever had, wish it had been 20 cents cheaper."
