Really? Oh, well, maybe that's true, I can't really tell, because the words don't sound that muffled to me.. but that's probably because I know them. :lol:

*We’re moving slowly, hand in hand

As they watch our every step

It looks like we’re unwelcome here

But what makes you think that I care?

Cause I don’t give a damn, give a damn

(Let them stare) I’m not letting go, so beware

(Let them stare) I’m ready to fire back

The mannequins are protecting their factory

We are a danger to them

Fake shine and smiles

Oh, nothing seems to matter to me

Cause now I’ve got you

*I’ll pull you closer, hold you tight

Even though they whisper that it’s wrong

Won’t stop, and as the lightning strikes

More heads are turning, feels so right

And I’d do it again, it again

(Make them stare) They better stay out of my way

(Make them stare) I’m ready to fire back

The mannequins are protecting their factory

We are a danger to them

Fake shine and smiles

Oh, nothing seems to matter to me

Cause now I’ve got you (And it feels so right)

The mannequins are protecting their factory

We are a danger to them

Fake shine and smiles

Oh, nothing seems to matter to me

Cause now I’ve got you

Oh, yes, I know what they are thinking (thinking)

We are too human to fit in (fit in)

We breathe, we think, we feel, and they can’t change us

And we know, yeah, we know...

*CHORUSx2

And it feels so right

Cause now I’ve got you

Feels so right, feels so right...

Thanks, guys. :party::hug:

I'm getting a studio mic on my birthday, so I'll get to recording other songs pretty soon.

You really can make a really ****ing and big record with that kind of songs.

+ a s-xy voice : you got it

So okay, I got myself a semi-professional mic + studio headphones. We (me + my best friend) recorded a song we wrote together called Boundary. Here are the two versions of it (one is fully produced and the second one is semi-acoustic).

BOUNDARY

BOUNDARY (Acoustic)

*A lonely spider spins my web of thoughts

And stars are now my only company

There’s just one thing that makes me stay awake

Another „truth“ is more then I can handle

*

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

You took it with you right before you left me

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

Will you decide to heal it or to break it?

*

„Goodbye“'s the word that freezes every clock

There’s just one try to fix them, only one

Our fragile „perfect†was my everything

So hurry up, our time is running out

*

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

You took it with you right before you left me

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

Will you decide to heal it or to break it?

*

If that’s not what you mean

Why does it hurt so much?

Why can't you understand?

Why don't you understand?

That I am the one...

*

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

You took it with you right before you left me

My wounded heart is in your hands tonight

Will you decide to heal it or to break it?

P.S. I have a small part in it near the end.

P.S.S. I hope the vocals are not too loud, I have three different mixes of each version, and I'm still not sure if the volume of the vocals is right.

Do you have any tips on editing vocals? I struggle with editing for the chorus, I never get the big chorus-feel. I want it to sound like I have backup singers kind of, but it sounds so weird when i try to sing them myself (multiple recordings) any tips?

First of all, I love it. I love both versions, but I prefer the acoustic one. It does more for the vocals, I think, and I don't think the vocals are too loud at all. Lastly, I love your part at the end. As I've said before, I love your voice.

Love All your stuff!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH, GUYS. I don't even know what to say besides "thank you" to express my gratitude to you for listening to my stuff. :hug:

First of all - don't record a song in one go. Record four-five takes of each part separately (1st verse, chorus, etc), pick the best ones (or combine the best parts of each take). The basic treatment for the chorus is to have three different takes of the lead vocal: one in the center channel, and two other ones turned down (pretty low in the mix, just to give the main vox some additional depth) and panned 100% (or 90%) left and right. Also you can record some harmonies... again - two different takes panned hard left & right. You'll have to make sure that the timing of everything is good beforehand and, if not, tweak the parts that are off.

Just to bump the thread here's a short piano improvisation I recorded today (I love noodling around).

I'll get to recording some new vocals tomorrow, and, if I'm lucky, I'll be done with one or two songs by Monday.
