Hey 
Yes, I have very poor strumming ability. I really do know that. I have to work on it. Thanks.

Very nice |
I like your voice quite alot. It's different to the type of music that i usually listen to, but you can sing very well. The song has quite alot of potential. If you perfect it and add some more instruments, like violins or something else to make a contrast against the guitar, the song would be alot better for it. Great song, keep up the good work.
hhhmmmm
I feel the need to post something here... Look, I love the way your vocals are recorded.
I dislike the strumming... Somehow, listening to this, the magic of your style doesn't get through to me, and to me it is less strong (to put it nicely) than most of your other work.
Also, I agree with mr. Swordfish about the lack of hook. And it has nice stuff "I'll always love you from afar" niiice - but I'm waiting for the catchiness, it doesn't come. I may sound harsh, but that's because so many others are sticking feathers up your behind, I think you need to come off your cloud and distance yourself a little from your work, to look at it from a more objective point of view.
So you can be more critical to what you're making; work on your strumming before you record, and write an allround better tune. You owe it to yourself. You need to live up to your own standards.
Still giving it a more than good rating though - don't get me wrong
But re-Seven is much better... and Obligations is THE thing... and Five Lost Friends but that's personal.

Ha, hey puppet.
Thanks for the input. It's funny you should say all that, because obligations was the first song I ever put on here... It's always been my favourite. But if you read the first few posts, you'll notice it was really poorly recieved. So then I went and checked out some other music on the site and realized it was predominantly rock. And then noone heard from me on the site for like, 6 months. Then I decided to come back and give it another shot.
I don't, unfortunately, think you'll ever sway me on the 'hook' issue. If a hook doesn't come naturally I won't put it in there. It's the same with middle 8ths. If you look at All That I Can Be, or even Evergreen - they have hooks. One wasn't recieved well, one was.
I suppose, and kill me for saying this, I do make music for myself. If I don't like it I don't record it.
But I completely agree about the objectivity thing. And I really do need to work on my strumming. But I recorded that the day after I wrote it. I had no choice.
Thanks, man
