Really has a lot of emotion!
Plus the sounds of the city! Really have to commend you to put this type of style on MJ!
Very original, kind of has a feeling of Bono ! Again so full of emotion! Very life emotion!

Way to go! This really has a sound of originality! Good quality in your voice! Nice backdrop too!

Thanks a lot dude. I love the Bono comment. I had to listen to it again to see because I didn't pick up on that but your right. I think there is a small kind of Bono sound to my voice. Thanks for listening.

Nice Vocals
Really nice vocals. Raw but really heartfelt. I like the melody and of course I really like the harmonies. I could really hear a band behind you rocking this one out. Nice job.

Thanks Mark,
I am still learning how to mix so all my stuff is a little too loud or too quiet. Thanks for commenting.

Hey
The distorted, clipped vocals are a little bit sloppy, but I love the idea here. You have a great voice! Kinda like Bono's. Great song! I would HIGHLY recommend remastering and fixing this trick.

I appreciate the comment and I agree. I was early in my education in mixing and I still possess that ingnorance to an extent. I recorded this a few years ago and out of laziness left it alone. I am glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening.
