Does my voice fit this downtempo trip hop style?

Lyrics

Love is
Love is

Pomp and Circumstance trace your footsteps
Your mind is free from care.
While I lay here in your shadow
No one notices me there.

Love is
Love is
Love is poison

I deeply feel this
this disconnection.

I've always believed that independence is key.
So when I turn around don't you follow me.

I deeply this disconnection
making me reconsider my choices and selections
If I choose to follow you
Am i giving up a self that I'll never learn to know?

Love is
Love is poison

	nice Song Sort of reminds me Of the band Garbage but without the pretense, good job on production and the vocals are excellent!

	it fits ooh yes, your voice fits for sure. Moreover, your voice is such an added value to this song, and the vocal harmonies are splendid. This song has such a natural flow in it. A perfect production as well. Wonderful collab guys. Walter Check out my latest song called boundaries

	gracias :-) Thank you so much! It's always nice to know that what you add to a work of art is WORTHY! Eddie's songs are wonderful, and I always find it challenging to add to his work but bring in my own originality. Maybe that's how new genres are born! Hmmmm.

New Bond theme?
I loved the first seconds of this, and it just got better. It has a real
sense of drama - reminds me of the theme to a Bond movie ( you
know, a Connery, not a Roger Moore).
You're voice sounds great, and the harmonies are really well put
together. Lovely crisp production - the drifting bells sound wonderful.
This is one of the best tracks I've heard here in a while, which is saying
something - it sounds CD ready. Only quibble is that the chorus, for
me , needs a little more impact to make it a little stronger.

Great work - look forward to hearing more from you.

	helpful Echo thank you for the honest feedback. Being new to this whole la dee da singing thing, I have yet to learn how to make a good chorus (and write too!). How do you do that ya know? Buy a dummy book!?!??! Ha ha. Thank you again for the advice and I agree! -Linda Check out my latest song called Hopes and Dreams

HEY SWEETY!
Nice killa tune! Great second upload! A good rule of thumb is to double your vocals expecially for the chorus which it sounds like you did in certian places. It sounds also like the vocals could use a little more euphoric effects to match the back ground. Just a minor thing and it may be personal preference. Sounds awesome! Glad your getting such a wonderful reception over here at ham slams!

nice job you two!
Intriguing tune and singing. Although the constant "ringing" of the one
tone in the song was a little distracting, the rest of it was great. Your
main vox track could have been brought *up* very slightly, and given a
teeeny bit more room reverb. But that's all the critiquey stuff I can come
up with. The lyrics are really nice, and the singing and harmony was
tasty... for some reason, reminds me a little of Poe (what a singer *she*
is!) Great track! Welcome to Macjams, thank you for gracing us with your
talent!
ttfn,
Drakonis

	Cool groove I love the groove and the line, Love is poison. I enjoyed the melodies. Your vocal quality is very soothing in a sexy way. I just wanted some chord or key changes to take the song to a few other levels. Great melodies all over the place though. Check out my latest song called WinterSong

	Popular progression used successfully by many artists. Led Zeppelin's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You", Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4" and most recently Green Day's "Brain Stew". This song differentiates substantially. Vocals are great as usual nicely layered and fit the groove well. Thanks for sharing. Check out my latest song called Pigs Fly

	reminds me of Massive Attack. Nice. Theres something making a falt popping sound like a phonograph record in the first part and middle of the song where its the most notable. It seems to vanish after that. Check out my latest song called no sanctuary
