OUR SUPER HERO original --- NEEDS HELP BAD!---

[hardlock]

Boy this song has me beat!  I think is has potential but I wrote it too low and slow to sing so speed and pitch raised it then dropped the pitch back down.  

I'm burned out on it myself.  Have a listen and see if anyone has any suggestions.  (New singer best of course) Maybe harmonies over my dead vocals?  

"Our Super Hero" Lyrics
---------------------------------------------------------
   Here he comes
   Better clear the way

   You can count on him
   No matter what they say

   He's our super hero
   Come to save the day
---------------------------------------------------------
When the weight of the world comes crashing down
And there's nothing left to do

It's time to call on a higher power
One that will always see you through
--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------
There's those who don't believe he's real
But he still helps them just the same

He comes to each in different ways
It doesn't matter who's to blame
-------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
We never know how he'll appear
Could be the doctor saving lives

And the fireman on the line
Or just a neighbor in disquise

I thought this had a really cool vibe to it. It is definitely low and slow!

It sounds good the way it is I think.

Thanks all - I quess I just can't stand my own voice and would like to hear it sung by someone else - Hey James, where are you?

well executed enjoyed it

[Speed Demon]

Hardlock, I like this tune just the way it is. Just needs the vocal to be brought up in the mix.

Nice work on this one Ken.
I really like the lyrics, great story here how anyone can be a super hero.
Great guitar leads, I love the tone on your guitar.
Vocals are solid but I think you should turn them up in the mix.

If you want send me a backing track on this and I would like to try the vocals or if you want maybe add some harmonies to your vocals.

Solid tune.

Here's the latest mix.  Speed Demon has added an outstanding killer bass-line to the song (THANKS GENE!!!) and I bumped up the vocals.  

Had a problem there due to the edited pitch, speed changes so ended up just overdubbing the raw vocal track over the pre-mixed original with the added bass and too soft vocals.  This gives some fullness to the vocals I think and allowed me to filter out the lows in the "top" vocals for clarity.  Only problem is I couldn't quite match the location on the track but I'll just say I added some echo or whatever.  

See what you think.
