My first pop song

I'm usually a jazzer but somehow this popped out of my head.

Fun song. Nice tones.

I think the vocals could come up 1 dB.

The vocal level isn't too bad IMHO, except for one sustained note; every time it's sung it's difficult to discern its pitch.

Darren, I absolutely enjoyed that very much! Unfortunately, like the music I'm hoping to (eventually!) complete myself, I'm afraid it might just have too much class about it. :lol:

Love from Melbourne, mate. :dance:

As everyone said, the vocals need to be beefed up a little. I do like the song, and you're clearly good to go with the instrumentals, but it still needs some tweaking to become great!
