Well it's been quite a while since the last vocal submission, but I must say time hasn't changed the beauty in your voice. Just like Zelda's Lullaby this has amazing vocal work, and the lyrics for the most part work very well with the song and reflect the tone and feel of the song. There was a spot in the beginning in which the pitch went off some, and I would have liked it to all be in Latin compared to about half and half because it works better with the song feel, and the song sounded overall better during the Latin section of the lyrics. 4.5/5 I don't like it quite as much as Zelda's Lullaby, but it is still very well done, and though pitch goes off a couple times in the beginning and my preference would have rather had Latin lyrics for the feel of the song, I still like it quite a bit. Also, the download doesn't work for me, so I was wondering if you disabled downloads? Thanks for reading -Staadsy
Reviews for "Ballad of the Windfish"
I never pitch correct my vocals, which will sometimes create the "Live Off-Pitch" problem. And I decided to keep the lyrics half Latin/half English simply because that's how it came to me that night. But I am happy that you gave me your honest feedback. It's very helpful ^_^
Was going through random audio files to see if I could find anything I liked, or anything inspirational for writing. Most were just 'meh' to me, a few made me bounce a bit which got me to download them and give them a decent rating. This piece though immediately captured my focus and I was drawn in entirely. I was distracted a bit by trying to translate the Latin bits (having those translated somewhere would be awesome <3) and I immediately had to download this.
Hoping to hear more great things from you :D I loved the blend of vocals and audio you did here. 4.5 stars because I so thought there could be some minor improvement with the backup vocals (they sometimes overpowered the main bits, obscuring what was being sung, and in the earlier part they felt a touch rushed) but the sheer fact you were able to take a relatively obscure LoZ tune and give it lyrics that made it so much better then it was to begin with is absolutely outstanding!
Great, great, great job!
Well thank you ^_^
I didn't translate the lyrics, actually, because someone told me that it distracted them last time I did it. hahaha I guess it goes to prove the old saying "you can't please all the people all the time"! :D
But I'm glad you gave it such a high score. Thank you!
Awwwwwww.....
That was so nice...

I'm glad you liked it :D
You picked the best song to make a tribute from. Links Awakening is my all time favorite game.
I'm happy you liked it! That's a great thing to hear from a true fan of the game.
very beautiful not exactly my style but incredibly calm and nice
Well thank you for taking the time to listen and review, even if it's not really your thing ^_^
