I really like this song but I think you should get some voice lessons because at 00:56 you can't carry it and perhaps some coaching can help you with that. Otherwise, good stuff.
"You either have to be Black or pretend to be Black to get anywhere on American Idol."
Bullshit. American Idol has had 6 seasons, 3 Black winners, 3 White winners. And the 3 White winners certainly did not "pretend to be Black"; they all have very White musical styles.
Great song, Meade. I think that you are very talented, however, your performance does need more work. In the future, I can see you singing a duet with Carrie Underwood at the Grand Old Opry. Good luck to you!
Don't lose weight just because of a bunch of ass-hats on YouTube---it's about the music, man. In America they don't understand that. Go to Europe, you'll see all sorts of people who aren't "perfect", but who make incredible music. Fuck Americans and their stupid obsession with how everything looks as opposed to how the music sounds or how good the actor is.

VASINGER 4 years ago
I'm not being disrespectful. I definitely feel you have potential but you need to work on 00:56 and 1:34 to truly achieve perfection.
chicagopolice 4 years ago 3
Probably so. I was really tired when I filmed this and it was an outtake from something else.

You have a good, professional sound and you write a pretty melody. Nice modulation going into the final chorus, too.

So, 13 percent of the population is represented at 50 percent? Thanks for PROVING my point!
Nearly every song they sing is over-embellished and in the style of some Black gospel choir. Compare it to a real vocalist like Karen Carpenter.

As jsprev said, 50% of the winners PROVES his point! Nice going.

I really like your song talking in circles. I haven't seen you live yet... but i am working on it! Thanks.

Hey Meade! I haven't seen you since the Mama's Family board apparently went kaput. Good to see you again.
I was just about to suggest that you put some video of your performances here - hey, free advertising - , but looks like you beat me to it.
Nice song btw, and I think you should put your "Nicole Kidman, will you marry me" song here as well. I still find myself singing that one in my head.
See you later.

Don't lose weight just because of a bunch of ass-hats on YouTube---it's about the music, man. In America they don't understand that.
