I don't consider myself a very strong vocalist, but I'm still proud of this performance. Whether or not this is good enough to make it into the next round, I'm just glad I could make it into this round.


Edit: I forgot to include the lyrics, please forgive me I'm not used to having vocals in my songs


(And thanks for the frontpage, love you Newgrounds)


Lyrics


Running through the summer breeze

With no responsibilities

Nothing to worry about or stress over

Just doing as we please


We enjoyed our freedom

Living it to the fullest, as we could enjoy it

And when I look back at the memories we made

I'm glad it turned out this way


Do you remember when I held your hand?

We stayed out all night playing in the sand

But now, that feeling's gone away

I know there's no going back

But the memories have turned to black

Fading from me, every day


Oh, bring me back to the summertime

When we all knew things would be fine

A relic of a simpler life

I miss the past, when things didn't seem so bad

These memories, these memories will be all I'll ever have


Oh, bring me back to the summertime

When we all knew things would be fine

A relic of a simpler life

I miss the past, when things didn't seem so bad

These memories will be all I'll ever have

Gorgeous track! The vocals are pretty, but the first vocal section kinda sounds tinny? It fixes itself at 1:37 so idk what was going on there. Also freakin BEAUTIFUL harmonies and guitar in the final section <3

Curruff responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The tinny vocals at the beginning are actually intentional, I liked having the softer sound at the beginning and how it transitioned into the rest of the song.

I wished the vocals were a bit louder. You have a perfect voice, so don't be shy and let it shine for others to hear.

Bruh you have a fantastic voice. Would recommend placing your vocals more into the forefront of the mix, your voice is definitely strong enough to carry the track forward. There were goosebump moments in there when the choral parts came in and during the buildup at 2:00. You should definitely be more confident with what you've got.

Hope ya make it to the next round with this!

Curruff responds:

Thanks for the reassurance! I guess it's just easier to see from the outside.
