Hi Irwin
Much more intelligible as just vocal. Suggested path for collaborating:
  • Have someone tune the vocal to stay on key.
  • Have them up with chords for the melody and make a simple piano/vocal or guitar/vocal. (Vocal can just be a melody guide)
  • Have the lyrics re-written as the are repetitive & cliche and don't have any story line, imagery, etc.
  • Then, if all is good, production and performance/vocal.
I see BuzzFeed offered to help so let's see how you guys do. Good luck!

:-) Casey

Great vocal, but I agree - a little help with some of the technical stuff. I’d be happy to flesh out a few things then pass it back to you.
I’ve worked with many artists this way and would love to take it on.

Paul (Buzz Reed)

Ps - loved Shart Pants!
Thanks for wanting to help Paul, I'd always wanted to work with someone who plays wind instrument.

Glad you love my song "Shart Pants"

I send you a PM
