I recently added two new songs to my Soundclick page. I feel pretty uncertain about the quality. First, both are slow tracks, which is the hardest thing to do. Second, I feel my voice is really not up to par. It took me quite a while to get an acceptable result. I keep telling myself that I just have to find the right style or something but I have my doubts about singing. Anyway, see for yourself. I also posted them on various forums. Most of the feedback was about the guitar tones (these are guitarhead communities, it's true).
I decided to record an album's worth of my older songs, And found a nice photo I took one evening for the "cover". I call it "Bad Moon Rising". Most of these tracks have a very somber mood, hence the title. Still, this nagging insecurity about my voice is holding me back. Last night I was surfing the iTunes Music Store, listening to Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen, some of my big influences, and began wondering if I should bother at all. But I guess I'll just have to try and ignore this and do my best...
