hahahaha, I'm only 18 and I think I haven't finish puberty yet to explain trying 'to act manly'? hahaha. jokes aside, I have a subtle deep voice that can't go higher than that, well I could reach a little higher, that explains the 2nd vocals.

hmm your comment about the guitar sounds like what my ex-guitarist always say.

 

[tim098]

justheretolook you need to chill. Although i admit daryl's original comment seems harsh, his later reasoning does make a lot of sense. Sure, I dont agree with him saying its a bad song cuz i personally feel it is a good song. And Im not some tone-and-rhythm deaf jackass who knows nuts about music, I know what im talking about and i know a potentially great song when i hear one.

The fact that he did bother to listen carefully and give his own honest opinions remains though. Even though they do seem overly harsh, u should filter out anything that seems to be personal, and use the criticism in a constructive way.

He may not feel about this song the way I, and seemingly you, see it. But out there in the real world its gonna be just like this, some like it, some dont. thats why u gotta take it the right way man.

 

[justheretolook]

yes maybe I need to get ready for the same comments in the future, but don't worry, me and daryl already solve the situation. and btw, hopefully i'm not like your sub-nick hehe.

Bass is nice, however a few notes seemed to be slightly out of place. Guitar solo isn't that bad. Tone could do with some work though. Dynamics a little out of place, it's full-blown almost all of the time. How bout slowing it down or softening it for the verse?

You guys DO remind me of The Libertines, but sorry, you guys aren't there yet! Keep working and I really hope to see you guys making it.

 

[justheretolook]

thank you for the encouragement!

 

[justheretolook]

hmmmm, I was just wondering if any of you softies are coming to see us play this saturday at central. any comers? so you can rate the 6 originals we're playing, including Marionette. because I'd really like to know.

 

[Pete_Wentz]

If you put your song on display for people to judge then be prepared to take some criticisms along with compliments. If not dont make a topic asking for it.

 

[justheretolook]

that is soooooooooo yesterday. and so as Fall Out Boy, soooooooooooooo yesterday

 

[Pete_Wentz]

haha yeah, we are so yesterday bro. Its always been a wish of mine to write a song as good as marionette before we fade out but the future looks bleak

your song is the best song written by a local band EVER. screw those people who say ur singing is bad. they dont know nothing about 'style'. and your lyrics is freakin poetry, shakespears would be put to shame!!!! . ur solo is so sexy mans, slash totally will get pwned mans. and dont even get me started n the bass n drums. theres not enough vulgar words to describe their tightness and the way they drive the band

6 stars outta 5. keep it up. i cant believe u kids arent signed to a major label yet!

 

[justheretolook]

-.-! did your mum teach you how to lie? i'm disgusted. what a waste of a sin. (like I said, daryl and me settled the diffy and you don't even know what we said in our pm's, so shut the .... up)

anyways. the Tapestry schedule is up! go to their blog, wait ah..

[haz_flow]

yo bro..sorry to say this..
but i dun think u could tolerate comments..
which i wonder why are u asking for them..

and u shouldnt have brought in people's parents..



Erm..Maybe artists dun expose themselves(in any way) in the internet for a simple reason..
Coz one wrong move, and they'll be damned..
(Read between the lines bro..no malice)


Peace

 

[daryl]

Leave justheretolook alone... Sobsss... Leave him alone... Sobs sobs

 

[visa]

the song itself has potential actually, keep working at it.

reminds me a little bit of sourgrapes.

you're still young, so perservere, don't let the armchair critics get you down!

 

[justheretolook]

wtf daryl ahahaha.

look here im sick and tired of people asking me what to do on the forums. i know where i went wrong, so just leave it! you all are just trying to re-start the fire, and if you want fire, i give you fire, like what i did to that pete wentz guy, or whatever his name is. you come just to comment on the song, if you dont wanna comment, leave. a thread its like a house, don't try to be an intruder. get it?

 

[justheretolook]

i will persevere visa, thanks alot dude!

 

[KeDraiv]

Listening to the song again, i think the bass line is a bit erm hard to hear lah. dunno if it's me but yeah.

to me a bassist, if i want the bass line to like stand out, i'll sort of make the rhythm go a bit softer and let the bass line to be a counter melody. will really work well together with the singing. If not you can let the bass be the lead like in "she'll be loved" by maroon 5.

and as for the rushing thingy, to me, my view is like you're playing it 170-180 by metronome,w hich is quite fast lah, so you may tend to rush when u get the feeling lah. Maybe you'all can slow down and maybe count by whole notes instead of half notes? ( i'm not that sure, just a suggestion)

tat's juz imo lah. =]=]

 

[visa]

yes, for constructive advice-

try slowing down the song, you may be surprised to find it more groovy and soulful.

also, don't fight with your critics. it makes you look bad.

 

[smurfpiss]

The musical motifs when you look at it separately ain't that bad, but the arrangement wears it down, really low. I'd suggest rearranging it and before recording make damn sure the drummer plays in time, forget all those rolls and fills just make sure it's played in time.

 

[visa]

listening again, i have to suggest x2 that you slow it down- it'll force the guitar solo to be more emotive too, and make it easier for your guitars and bass and drums to lock together- which is important, even for a "messy-sounding" song like this, you need the groove to be locked in.

 

[justheretolook]

if we do slow it down x2, it'll not be our style of music. most of our music consist of fast garage rock except for ska and some lil bit of pop songs. but then again i'll try to slower down the tempo a little bit. thanks people
