    my honest opinion is that the recording makes it almost unlistenable...

    the vocals are... redundant...

    def vaguely oasis-y, but a... pretty poor song...

    IMO

    ok, well ive put up a new vocal, i thought the understated vocal worked better but obviously not.

    personally, i know im not a good vocalist, but i havent heard one band or artist in ireland or the UK who got as good a guitar sound as I got on that song in the last few years. most amateur and signed stuff is pretty boring but at least my song hits you straight away, like all good music.

    It would appear that you suffer from delusions of grandeur.

    Dunno about the Beatles/Oasis comparison :rolleyes:
    I'm gonna be honest and say the vocals are pretty poor but the guitar I actually found pretty bearable, good luck !

    Thats one of the funniest things i've ever heard!!! How did you record the guitar then? DId you use more than one mic? Condensors? Did you use a mid-side technique? Did you EQ it and compress it? Did you find the sweet spot in the room to record it? I doubt it to be honest!
