sorry, dude, i don't like the whole out of tune classical guitar strumming chords thing. record it again with in-tune steel strings if you want to do this sort of thing. buy a cheap epiphone or something.

You should just sing the song normal and quit all the fancey crap. It doesn't work for you :).

[KungFuMoose]

At first I wasn't sure about this... but I find that I really like your interpretation of the song. And your voice is just fine. :D

[CurlySingsSongs]

...which voice suits the taste of the public or something like that - I personally like the nasal, like Placebo or do you remember "Teenage Dirtbag"? that is pure nasal singing... I adore it, am I alone? but oh well, I accept the criticism on that anyways, but possibly I'm gonna torment your ears with some other nasal song anyways ;-)

Cheers,

[affgaff]

its not just the nasal singing.

It's interesting how much the comments for each individual song deviate from each other... I've heard every single thing between "butchering", sounding like stewie from family guy and that I should sing Blues or something, because of a deeper voice (Drifting Away)... clearly irreconcilable categories aren't they? ;-) or "you should join "German Popstar" (Ohne Dich) and so on... I guess it's a good way to find out which voice actually suits me, or more correctly...

[strawboy1230]

[bigbadben]

[TakeOneTabletDaily]

[JimiHendrix574]

whats with accent noob

[CurlySingsSongs]

Noob indeed, you wise October '06 joiner ;-) what about accent?

[JimiHendrix574]

You sound like your trying to hard, and putting a twang in your voice dont sound right doesnt suit the song mate and keep the normal chord it sounds shit with your 'different chord'

[CurlySingsSongs]

got ya, well, at the beginning I didn't get into it perfectly, true, however I feel that the rest is not like trying too hard - some of it is due to the crappy digicam I've recorded with, you should see the lil mic, dude! ;-) with louder&higher tones it tends to overmodulate (you can perceive it if you listen closely) but it's still better than I expected... about the twang, I intentionally or more exactly naturally have that nasal sound in the voice

[CurlySingsSongs]

(2) It is a typical feature which I very much like in many songs by Death Cab, Placebo or bands like that; this is also just part of my voice & style :-)

which version do you refer to saying it doesn't suit the song? Iron&Wine? you're definitely right! however this is NOT my favorite version, how bout Ben Gibbard, who wrote that song? He does have a very nasal voice, that's why I love it - check out his live versions of that song! Then you'll have a different picture...

[fancypals]

good job!
