Sorry Crash is this a joke - are you purposely posting something completely dreadful to see how polite people are ? :shock:

Just awful.

Doesn't pass the 3 second rule...
Piano is robotic/quantized... nothing natural about the sound
Vocal comes in with a Scoop
Vocal processing sounds like bad early 80's
Had to turn it off

Although would have appreciated a tad more detail why its so Awful, just for my own development :
OK Thought it was a wind up. I'm sure you've posted better things before now.

Intro : Bad midi sounding piano that seem like it's played by an arpeggiator and not a human...Suggested fix..learn piano/keys or if not buy EzKeys then at least you'll have some decent pianos and playing styles

11s - The vocals are the worst part. It sounds like a cross between Darth Vader and a Cylon doing the worst Elvis impression you've ever heard. Robotic, pitchy - it's un-listenable other than as a parody : Suggested fix - take off the robotic effect, possibly get someone else to sing it.

I can' barely hear the drums , they're not mixed at the right level but from what I can hear they don't sound in time with the piano ; Bring up the drums , bass and other elements so they balance, listen to the piano & drums by themselves to make sure the groove is in sync.

Lyrically it is pigeonholed to a certain life event so it's universal and could only be used in a scene where it's someone's birthday. Suggested fix - Don't use very specific events in lyrics for sync - get the Robin Fredrick book about writing for Film & TV

The listing asked for live played instruments and I don't hear any. It also asks for well performed vocals and a polished mix neither of which are present here. It's not often I can't make it all the way through a track , hopefully you can save the $5 and put it towards something that will help you.

Mark
