Sad feeling

This just has a really sad feeling to it actually. It kind of just makes you feel sad that you had just broke up but then you feel happy because you feel a weight has been lifted off your chest and that you knew she/he wasn't the right one for you. The piano just makes the tune sound sad and some parts subtly remind me of Kingdom Hearts as well.

The overall flow seems to be down and dreary yet also happy as well. The tune flows like quicksand and ensnares the listener to stick around and hear it a few times and realize that there is always someone out there for them. Beautiful piece.

Short

Really enjoy the piano in this one...
Everything has a nice sort of 'build up', but I just feel that it ended far too soon. I know that you stated in a response to the other review that it was your emotions put in to the song, and you just couldn't make it any longer. But I personally believe that when emotions are poured in to music, those emotions should create the longest, greatest and most touching songs you'll ever write in your entire life.
So, that was my major issue with this song, not much else comes to mind about it being bad at all.. I just feel that it was going so great, and then it just came to an end, leaving the listeners wondering why, or what.

My only suggestion is that if you ever decide to do another song with your blood sweat and tears put in to it, you make it at least 3 - 4 minutes long, I usually go for 3 - 4 when I'm doing an emotional track, some artists I know go 6 - 7 minutes. If you really want to put your emotions in to it even more than you already have, I'd say that is how you do it.

Never rush in songs like these, spend days or weeks on them, let your heart make the music.

Underrated, short, needs more punch

Hey stargenx,

--Production--
The piano is nice and crisp, with the lower notes resonating quite well with me. The strings and the accompaniment are at the correct volume, and they invoke a sense of build-up skilfully.

--Experience--
It starts off tender, then gets more involved. I like the progression of the piano, it creates a very epic feel to it. The reverb you have added makes it seem almost mystical as well. I would recommend you put some other elements into the mix later on in the piece to build it up even more, because right now it seems like just a snippet.

--Style--
The unique quality of this song is that it doesn't overdo anything. It keeps things emotional while not being over-the-top and stays with the same theme congruently throught the whole duration. But it just stays on the same progression and never takes us anywhere. I would have liked to see some other chords come in after the 1:27 mark and just take the piece away somewhere else. Maybe even drums.

--Wow Factor--
The quality of the sounds used is superb, the composition supreme. A very minimalistic piece, perhaps too much so. That's why it got low-ish ratings, simply because there was no "wow" factor. Listeners await a build-up, climax, and then a resolution. This was a very good and long build-up, but no climax.

--Personal Tilt--
I was actually quite favourable to this song despite its briefness. I was searching for reasons why this would be given such a low rating and all I could find was the minimalism. Haters gonna hate, I suppose.

--Production-- = 18/20
--Experience-- = 20/20
--Style-- = 17/20
--Wow Factor-- = 13/20
--Personal Tilt-- = 15/20

OVERALL SCORE: 83/100
