Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Many thanks to everyone who helped me in my crash course to producing  
a song in Logic. It was for an online song contest. In the end I ran  
out of time, before I had got to grips with everything, particularly  
vocal production, but I`m pleased with the result - its probably the  
best song overall that I have written (musically and lyrically) and it  
sounds more or less how I wanted it to. I actually had to send an  
unfinished version, that's how much I ran out of time, but in case  
anyone is interested, here is a link to the song.

It sounds great on my ipod and mac, with decent headphones, less great  
in other situations, but I guess that I still have a lot to learn  
about mastering, along wiith many, more basic skills. Still, with more  
time I can now go back and relearn at more leisure.

If anyone has a spare few seconds to hit the 'vote' button, here is  
the link. The public vote only comprises one out of 20 sets of votes.

My entry is song 23 - Disturbing Tendencies by Londonvision featuring  
Tiina.

You can listen to the contest version of the song here

Some of you might be interested in the contest itself - it is strictly  
for amateurs and is a European based contest run by Eurovision Song  
Contest fans.

Anyway, thanks once again for all the tips!

Here's the lyric of the song. A happy little number, I think you will  
agree!


DISTURBING TENDENCIES

words and music by Andy Brook
sung by Tiina Kolehmainen

You were a beautiful baby; heaven sent, heaven knows
You had a privileged childhood - boarding school, and it shows
Why is it no-one else can see what I can see? You need help
you are displaying Disturbing Tendencies

Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?

Too many nights end in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn on the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up
And what will you be?
And will it be before your nemesis will show up?

With your celebrity lifestyle, gutter press stalking you
They set you up just to knock you down - that's what they always do
Now it's becoming clear for everyone to see, you need help
You are displaying Disturbing Tendencies

Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?

Too many nights end in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn out the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up
And what will you be?

When are you ever gonna grow up
And what will you be?
And will it be before your nemesis will show up?
Will it be before....

Are you gonna grow up?

You were a beautiful baby; heaven sent, heaven knows...
