So I did this last week but couldn't find a host. Luckily Ryan hooked me up (thanks dude

). I did it in one take of each track...I'm not that happy with the way the vocals came out, but then again I never am...haha..so yeah, give it a listen.

So i just gave it another listen and turns out the guitar track came in pretty crappy too. I need to re-do this.

that was pretty good...the guitar was pretty good, especially the bridge.....i think thats where you vocals were best....work on the vocals just a bit more, especially during the chorus...other then that, nice cover:)

i thought it was great. if you can hold a beat and sing along, then the rest can be worked on. your voice was great and no one's ever happy with their own vocals

you have a better range than you're allowing yourself though. you should open up a little, sing louder. i think you should maybe capo it up, sing it another half step or step higher and get loud w/ it. you have a great voice.

yeah i always feel like i am holding back because i don't want to get scratch in the recording...my microphone absolutely sucks and if i let myself go i get a lot of static. especially with words that have f's in them. i can't really explain it..i have tried muffling the mic but then you can barely here me. i have to go out and buy a decent mic...anyone have any recommendations?

and thank you everyone for your comments, i appreciate them

Great job! Sounded great, but I've never heard the original version (Damien Rice right?) so I can't really compare. Your voice was wonderful, keep up the good work.

And have you tried singing a bit farther away from the mic to get rid of that static you were talking about?

Yeah but then you can barely hear me and the quality is crap. I think the only solution to this problem is getting a decent quality mic.

yea, you can definetly hear her fine. volume wasn't an issue. it's her letting her voice go, that's the only issue.

can't give you any advice on a mic, i'm still using a piece of crap myself. so good luck w/ that

exactly..and the thing that sucks is that i can feel it when i actually am singing but i can't really do anything about it if i want a good recording! i'm gonna do some research on mics. :evil:
