Description:
Here's a poem I wrote that I put to music today. I just used the pinhole of my macbook, haven't had lots of time to mix it down, so sound quality is what it is.

feedback is alwaysss appreciated.

Lyrics:
Drained from another day away

We’ve hardly spoken lately

Just a few words

Find their way home

Meaning translated

Twisted and broken and alive

I wonder

The sky has no answers

But the only clues are fragments

Pieces of feeling

Shards of you

The winds carry voices

Whispers from the distance

I sing the rhythm of my heart

Percussive accompaniment

A single voice without harmony

Drained from another day away

We’ve hardly spoken lately

Just a few words

Find their way home

Hardware:
macbook, my big baby taylor, my voice.

Software:
garage band 2

a lovely song and I like your vocals a lot. Would definitely be worth re-recording with better production.
Cheers

thank you! &mdash 12/20/07 - 11:41:34 PM
thank you! The recording process was as rough as they come. I did the whole thing in about an hour from start to finish (minus writing the poem, which i wrote about a year ago) in my dorm room with no soundproofing and lots of city noise, noisy neighbors, thin walls, etc. Using the macbook mic was new experience for me also. Not excuses, just simply acknowledging that the production is extremely lacking.

butttt, I'm glad you found something nice about the song as a whole. I hope to come back to it sometime and give it another go. thanks again for the listen!

I can hear it. &mdash 12/19/07 - 08:57:21 AM
Like the raw sound and still I wonder what it would or could be if some gear was added to the remix.Perhaps starting as is and then taking off with production added.Fine writing here.Much enjoyed the tune as is.

Blessings,
