this was my first attempt at a remake. i did both the vocals and the background music. i'm by no means a trained singer, and the singing is merely myself using sound recorder on the computer. the background music was made with sony acidpro. please be kind. i know there are a few spots where i had pitch problems singing. hope i didnt destroy the song for you. thank you so much for taking a listen!!!!

It's really cool, I think some syn th exaggeration on the part where it says "Mad World" would have been really cool. It's very catchy, the song is so calm and melancholy to make it into a techno remix is very cool.

"okay..."

I give about 8/9 for the actual beat and background music
but about 2/3 fo the singing. It got better at about 0:45, just that beggining made me want to switch it off. I'm sure some vocal training would do wonders, but untill then I would keep practising. You can only get better :)

i agree. but this was recording a good 2-3 years ago...i have come along way in my vocals...check out the track i did with kazmo under his profile...we have another one in the works too, i think you will see the improvement. nonetheless, i still appreciate you taking the time to listen and review the song, even if it wasn't 100 percent up to your liking! <3

"Great, but not exactly true to the original"

Honestly, I love the way your voice sounds, but I don't think this range is correct for the song. As others have said though, it does fit the beat well and the background. With a little bit of vocal training, I'm sure this would sound even better, though it's pretty damn good as is. It's a spin people don't really expect.

My only gripe I really truly have is the way this song is remade. I would only rip on you for taking a very expressive song and putting heavy emphasis on synth. So what I mean to say is that the songs' true nature is corrupted in that sense. Thankfully, you make it sound good. I'm merely a purist in the lyrics.

I'll give it a five on any day. Your talent at least merits that much.

i wanted to try something different...and i think my voice has come a long ways in the 2 years since this song was done. i would have done some things differently looking back and may revisit it sometime. thank you for stopping by to listen! i really appreciate your honesty!!!! thank you for your comments! <3
