Hey Gabriel, The song is good. But, I have some feedback. When you have the bass with vocals going on I think the bass is too loud, I think the vocals sound should not be over powered by the bass. Rest of the song is good. I would not go too far correcting tthe pronunciation, if is affects the melody. There have been songs by great artists where they pronounce things differently. (Billie jean is a great example) Hi! Thank you for the feedback! This is just a mixdown not a final mix that's why we didn't work too much on the mix and voice edition. First of all the song is really great and the vocals are expressive and captivating. Hope you will be successful with the song and find a broader audience in English speaking or English centric countries. Now to the pronunciation. Of course there are words where it is apparent that Luciana is not a native speaker. But it also adds some slightly exotic vibe that makes it really interesting. If you want to strive for perfect pronunciation though, Luciana should focus on a clearer articulation of e and i. I refer here to words like distress (the i is formed too far up in the nasopharynx, means the tongue comes up but shouldn't). Another one is "will". She makes the i too long, it sounds more like wiihl. Same in whisper or killing. The "i" in front of more nasal consonant combinations like ng are also something to focus on. "Said" is slightly over pronounced, but that might be part of the phrasing. Same with the e in ear. Another thing to look for is the combination of p and l as in place or please. She pronounces it more like bl (sounds a little like blace). But again I love it like it is. Great song, great singing. Hello ItsMe! Thanks a lot for taking the time for such a complete and helpfull feedback! This will really help us to know which things we have to work on. Well I still think the way she says killing is so nice and sweet...I love it that way...Pllllllleaaaaaaaaaaaaassssee dont change those things.. OK! -------------------- My lessons

O that was great! This goes straight into my iPhone. Don't worry about the english, it's great. You can hear an accent here and there but that just gives it a personal touch imo. Thank you for the feedback man! You can use the mp3 freely! -------------------- My lessons

Wow man! When I first read this topic I must confess I was frightened about what I was going to listen to. To avoid being influenced by others point of view, I first listened to the music before reading the forum. I'm not a native speaker, I'm Brazilian (and I guess people from Argentina and Brazil have almost the same accent when speaking English…) but usually I don't like English versions (Shakira, for example…btw I'm not comparing ) But if you want to know my honest opinion, I really loved the accent and of course, the song! Bravo Luciana! It sound very "natural and pleasant" to my ears! Good Luck! Now, I think it's time to buy a Cirse's album! Hey! Thank you very much for the comments! It's really cool to know the opinion from a neighbor from Brazil! Hope to play there soon! -------------------- My lessons
