Its Not Worth It - BradoSanz

Description : ALL THE LOOPS FOR THIS SONG ARE FOUND ON MY LOOPS PAGE - The "WORTH" Loop Pack.

Entering this for a contest raising awareness about the dangers of distracted driving. Decided to take a different spin than previous winners and take a more positive approach to this issue. The song time limit is 2:00 minutes. I came up with this song last night. What do you guys think?

Hi Brado, I enjoyed listening to this track! :) I love your vocals! The production sounds polished. I agree with your decision to take a more positive approach in tackling the issue. I think the track is radio friendly. Both the music and the message will resonate with kids.
I also felt that it had a 90s vibe just like Kyle/ImproveWithError mentioned. I’d enjoy some more of those throwback sounds. Hehe. Anyway, great job and I hope you win the contest! :)

Sending you good vibes,
Iti Yati

Nice song! My only suggestion is to give the backing vox a little less presence and have them sit behind or beside the main vocal track. ATM they sound like they're sharing the same space if you get me? Pehaps take some of the lower mid out of the backing vox to make some room. Good job and good luck!

Brilliant Brado. there is something so ultimately "American" about your cool track. I believe that you really get the message across. It is very thoughtful work. Of course awesome production and sounds great. Congrats!

Nice job on this Brado, well produced as always. It reminds of something out of the 90's a little like Counting Crows or Goo Goo Dolls. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

You little legend! I can see you ruling the pop world on a yacht touring the Mediterranean in the near future whilst I struggle with the 9 to 5 day job. :)

Hey Brado,sorry for the strong worded review but it just sounds like a complete cheesy sellout to me which I presume is exactly what you are trying to achieve.The performance is spot on its just the genre.Good luck.I am glad I didn't offend and I shall keep these type of comments to myself in the future as its not the way this site needs to go.

Perfect! Thanks for explaining yourself :) I don't mind a strong-worded review as long as there is elaboration - we are all entitled to our own opinions! It is definitely cheesy and sellout, but I assume that is what most kids (the target audience for this contest is teenage/young drivers) listen to today - so why not meet them where they're at? :P Plus, I'll do it if it gives me a shot for $1500 :) Too many sad, after-the-accident-happened type song winners. Just wanted to change it up, ya know? Something more cheery, before-the-accident-happens type song and with a bit o' cheese :P

I think my view on this song is summed up perfectly in my reply to StaticNomad's comment: " I need the money for college or I wouldn't be wasting my time haha."

Thanks for the honest review!

I would appreciate some elaboration as to why you find it so dreadful :) I am not offended, just curious as to what made you consider it so.

Thanks,

Greetings, Mr Bradobro.

This song is totally not worth it. No, just joking. It is worth listening to and should be a strong contender in your little competition. Maybe it'll play on TV or something.

Yes, I guess going for a fun, jaunty pop vibe is a bit unexpected with a warning video. Almost sounds like distracted driving is great fun (from the song's vibe).

Maybe you can put it through a filter that switches it all to minor keys and get some dark, low ominous notes in there to give it some menacing gravitas. No, just joking again. I'm just trying to think what sort of music you get on those sorts of TV ads. I guess that music always contains some elements of danger and discomfort and no doubt minor keys.

This is all very direct and breezy. No hanging about with the verse and chorus switches (your usual style).

Congrats.

Hey StaticNomadobro,

"Almost sounds like distracted driving is great fun (from the song's vibe)"

Made me laugh really hard at that, thanks.

Thankfully its not for a commercial, just a simple submit-your-music-for-a-prize type deal, so I'm not too worried about it, I need the money for college or I wouldn't be wasting my time haha.

Thanks for the review,

Bradobro

Hey Brado excellent job, would make a great PSA. Your vocals are great, the three part harmony and layered vocals are clean and powerful. It sounds like "power pop" all around a great production. Great Job instant fav

Rather catchy, very commercial sounding, that's a good thing in this case.

I'm really trying to find a flaw but I'm having great difficulty.

I honestly think you have a really good chance of winning this, keep us updated!

Description : Peace
Peace is something I haven't felt in a while.
Im not talking about the small moments where you feel peaceful.

Im talking about being at Peace. The kind where you sit in the rain/snow, and just...lay there. In the moment where you accept yourself..
