Thanks to GaugeN for the cover photo!

I'll take any feedback on this one. It was really super duper fun to make and I hope any of the LPS fans here enjoy it <3.

You heard some of my complaints already, but just to tackle some of the vocal issues:

In the future, just to make sure you make your singer sound fab 100% of the time:

have them send you a bunch of takes (unless they're like me and cut takes together themselves before sending it off to you...even then, try to get more takes anyway). I don't think you particularly want those breaths/breaks in a song like this, and of course it's impossible to sing through this verse without those SO YOU SPLICE TAKES. You're also more likely to put together a consistent sounding performance with that (I mentioned spots of difference in the two verses).

I think for this particular melody, Kris would have had an easier time if the song was maybe a step higher? She's like a mezzo or something right? I don't think it would deviate too much from the tone you want, and those low notes in the hook would probably work better.


P. SWEET SONG THO, HEHEHEHE

Noted. I'll talk to you more about it when I get home (spoiler: no I won't).
