Hi Gabbe,
I've been listening to it a few times and listening to the original. Well
what can I say ! You're cover is truly and by far better than the original
to me !
I really like the way you singer sings, there's some kind of controlled
lazyness and I love the way she intentionnaly stumbles on the rhythm...
I also agree with Jeremy, no tremelo, no vibrato, just plain simple : good
choice !
The sound is really good even though on my Hi-Fi the voici is a bit too
strong and tends to shadow the guitars sometimes.
but it's an excellent job : I'm considering loading it on my mp3 player...
things i don't do often because i'm too lazy :)

First of, thank you very much all for your kind
words!! =)
About the generally *bad* mixing: I actually mixed this on regular old
Creative-speakers. Some of the guitars especially are boosted so much in the
mid (to compensate for the speakers) that they probably will distort in some
speakers. I could go back and remix it since I now have real monitors, but I
feel as the song kind of represents the skill level and mindset I had at
that particular time. I like "glueing" a song to that specific time when it
was fabricated =).
The FX-chain for the vocals is:
Calf 12band EQ (just using the lowpass to eliminate unnecessary freqs under
100hz)
Calf De-esser
Calf Compressor
Calf 12band EQ (regular song eq-work)
Calf Vintage Delay
Fader
Calf Reverb
All plugins from the Calf-git LV2 pack =)

All of the recording/mixing was made with Ardour
and the Calf-git
plugin pack + some various plugins.
Nice everything.
Too bad the saturation at some points.
What mike & preamp (if any) do you have (for the voice)?
Maybe you don't remember, but what effects did you put
on the voice (compressor, eq, reverb, what reverb software,
and so on)?
