Reviews for "AIM - distance"

I have nothing to say, your voice just keeps getting better, and the composition was great! Keep up the good work!

Lovely song! I caught a rolled R (0:29, "Prayed") which didn't quite seem to mesh with the rest of the melody and wasn't repeated. The lyrics are wonderful and heartfelt. Great buildup from piano to full orchestral. Good luck in AIM!

IIRC, I actually repeated the rolled R in 'cracks in our hearts ever widened', but meep~

Glad you enjoyed it; thank you! <3

I don't have anything technical to say, just that I realy love the composition and your voice.

---Official AIM review---

I like the soothing piano at the beginning and the breathy vocals. The lyrics have a wistful vibe that you bring out in the vocals quite well. The instrumental is a tad simplistic at first, but I thought it was a wise compositional choice to add to the texture as the piece goes on, between the bass fade-in at around 1:20 and the more conspicuous string entry at 1:55. The backing vocals and more legato style at 2:02 were great for some structural variety. The atmosphere of the piece is also really beautiful, and I love the atmospheric instrument at 2:27 that almost sounds like a theremin. The variations on the refrain at the 3-minute mark are great. You really hit the piece home before scaling back the energy for a fittingly sentimental ending. The vocal editing isn’t perfect. There are a couple of moments where your voice sounds a little strained at the top of your range (1:03, 3:12). Overall, the vocals are both strong and heartfelt, though. It’s hard to find much to complain about here. The production is quite strong. The instrumentation is beautiful. You’ve clearly put a lot of emotion into this piece, which certainly helps this piece stand out. Keep up the great work, both of you!

Beautiful) can't say I like all the song - the part between "I'm not who you once knew" was a little bit off to me, but that's just me. It's a beautiful song anyway
