I liked it for the most part, but when the drums came in on Scarlet eyes it was pretty sloppy. Good job though, your getting alot of plays. Expect a new freind.

SCARLET EYES: Drums are, as Druumer89 said, sloppy. They're also too loud in the mix. The sound quality of the guitar is actually OK until you hit the chords, but after that it sounds way solid state. Put some reverb on the drums, as well, whether you keep that track or not (I'd suggest redoing it.) The vocals were subpar, and also need some help in the production area. It was alright. A nice effort.

DAISY GIRL: Quite good. The acoustic sounded nice, the whole song was fairly well done. I liked that harmony in the chorus. My only major gripe with this one on a quick listen through was that the lyrics weren't all that great. Not that they wouldn't hold up, but they could be much better, and you would have a great song here.

Good job. Hope that helps.

EDIT: Eh, on Scarlet Eyes, I didn't mean that the chords sounded bad- just that the sound of that rhythm guitar has noticable room for improvement- at least through the speakers I'm using.

I agree with the previous posters that the drums are overpowering. The chording was okay. Voice could be stronger. Some pitch issues.
I enjoyed it thoguh.

I loved Goodbye Daisy Girl. Very nice harmony on the chorus. Again, agreeing with CantBuyAThrill when he says the lyrics could be better. If you revamp the lyrics just a bit it will be phenomenal.
Very catchy. :)
