From: Max Arwood on 7 Apr 2008 00:16 Thanks for listening Sue. I am working with envelopes to thicken up the low end of the guitar when it is exposed, then thin it out as the song fills in. I would like the second but the guitar and overall thinness. Otherwise I think I like the upper registers ok on it.

From: Rick Paul on 7 Apr 2008 02:44 For me it is a tough call. They're certainly different. The first one feels mellower, and is quite pleasing to the ears. The second feels more like a commercial mix, though -- more "radio ready", if you will. Note: I am only listening through my crappy computer speakers. One other comment on this in general: The chorus melody is eerily reminiscent of Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn", with the exception of th line that goes "lying naked on the floor" (which corresponds to "your love will guide me home" in this guy's chorus). The rest of the chorus, though, feels like pretty close to a carbon copy on the melody.

Yes. You might call it too thin. The way it struck me was too edgy ... i.e. with that point in the midrange. First one is more flat and neutral.
