Silver Lining:Lyrics sound a bit mumbled and forced. I can't really understand what you're doing. I do like the individual string melody for the verses.
Anathema: Again, sounds a but mumbled but I was able to understand most of the lyrics. Reminds me of Nirvana, actually. I do have to say that your voice is able to hold it's key and tone...and that's rare to find, these days.
She Said: The timing changes really threw me, on this one. Felt a bit abrupt. Seems like there's a lot of emotion going into this song (which is a good thing).

Next step add some layers ie drums from drum machine ( boss dr 880) add some lead guitar and simple bass lines following your chord progressions.

With Silver Lining how you mentioned that you ''can't really understand what you're doing", in reference to the lyrics of the song or something else?
Thank you for your positive feedback on my voice in Anathema and my verse string melody on Silver Lining! Appreciate it.
I have been told before I am very Nirvana, I try not to be but their influence on me is so huge haha. I was hoping noone else would say that but ah wells.
I've gotten Eddie Vedder too.Post edited by Thoughts_Arrive onAdelaide 17/11/2009, Melbourne 20/11/2009, Sydney 22/11/2009, Melbourne (Big Day Out Festival) 24/01/20140 -

I can totally hear some Nirvana in there and a bit of PJ. In terms of Silver Lining, I meant with lyrics. Sorry, I should have been more clear.Thoughts_Arrive said:

I think it'd be cool to hear some bass/drums, too---if that's the direction you're looking. To be perfectly honest, these recordings reminded me of Kurt Cobain's demos for "Do Re Mi" and "the boombox version of "Smells Like Teen Spirit".Grand Rapids '04, Detroit '06

I love those demos of Do Re Mi and SLTS.
Hearing those acoustic demos of Do Re Mi, Lithium, Been A Son, Sliver and other songs on the With The Lights Out box set inspired me to do acoustic demos. And hearing Kurt's earliest demos on Fecal Matter where his voice didn't sound good. I have now had 3 singing lessons, hoping to do more and keep creating.

It's hard to get used to the sound of your own voice, especially without reverb or echo. Keep it up. How much you pay for the singing lessons?

Thanks guys.
I recorded a new song demo, didn't turn out how I would have liked. My singing ability cannot match the idea in my head. I done like 5 takes. I don't know if I will upload it on Soundcloud.
