Lyrics
Beer cans and frozen hands
Jackie with the Buick sedan
sucker punching Ricky
cuz he wouldn't shut the fuck up
black path and sniffing glue
trading cards and who has who?
Min kissed the girl
but I didn't have the guts

People change but I don't believe that
people change
I think we all stay the same

Nose down and West coast bound
listening to Mr. Brown
Tommy Mader I should've kicked your
punk-ass
Trisha Martin, Christian Wood and Rosie
you were too damn good
Martha had me down but it all went
too fast
People change...
but I don't believe in people changing
I think we all stay the same

You used to believe in someone
now theres nobody around
you used to believe in something
now its nowhere to be found

Venice Beach, having drinks
i never even stopped to think
time rolling on and I didn't feel a thing
so unaware that love affairs had fallen
to the great despair
now I don't stand quite as tall as I used to be
singing

Nice voice and sound
I like the song. There is a carefree tone to the piece that highlights the message in the lyrics. A little denial goes a long way sometimes, doesn't it?

Personally, I wouldn't have panned the guitar and voice the way you did. They both should be front and centre.

A lot of popping as well with your vocals. It's unfortunate, considering how well you sing. I've been struggling with voice recording myself. Purchasing a pop filter went a long way in getting rid of these annoying consonants. Also, try singing across your mic rather than right into it. This also helps.

My final thought is about the songwriting. There isn't a lot of meloday variation or chord progression change with your chorus. I liked how you sang up the chorus the second time. The first time the chorus is sung, it just sounds like a fragment of the verse.

Overall, though, pretty good effort.

thanks, what does it mean to "pan" the voice and sound? I am brand new to
recording so this is good stuff for me to learn! Thanks again.

Did that "pop filter" work?

"Panning" is when you situate an instrument more in the right or the left. It's controlled by the knob beside the volume slider in the track in GarageBand.

And, yes, the pop filter has helped me quite a bit.

Search the forum threads available on the site for more tidbits about using GarageBand. There are lots of little gems there.

Cheers.

Great minus the recoding difficulties
Your voice is awesome..like a mix of Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young.
The song itself is catchy as well.
