I thought the idea behind this one was hilarious. I am a fan of Pearl Jam There seems to be a bit of missed hiss, not that it hurts bad, but it's there. Balanced very well, you sound like perhaps you were holding back a bit, very funny, and just overall a fun song. One of your better recordings to date. . .
POTQ- Very well done, Ant. Your singing was good, and the lyrics were very funny. A good job overall, at making fun of Pearl Jam.
I agree that you should have put more umph into this, but it was still a good parody of a great OS. The hiss kinda added to it, made it seem unprofessional and underground, which pretty much describes Grunge music so it really worked.
I kept expecting this to turn into "A$$hole" by Denis Leary... vocally kind of weird & weak - but I'm not sure if that was intentional or not, not knowing the OS.
Overall, a good recording. I wasn't blown away by this particular song, but enjoyed the Pearl Jam references.
Thanks everybody. Phil: For some reason, this recording had no bass in it. Dave said I performed this better over the cell phone. Sounding tinny was definitely not intentional here...
