First Post. Pop song made with my 7 singing siblings, opinions wanted

The song was written by two of my siblings, it was a farewell/wedding gift to our older sister who recently got married. It was produced and mixed by me, performed by my siblings and me, with a guest performance by Lauren Logan on violin. Constructive criticism is very much welcome!

Rig: (my brother's home studio)

Logic 8
Battery
KRK VXT6 monitors
Bluebird mic
Martin D28
Fender Mustang
Some cheap bass guitar
Guitar Rig 3
NI B4 (hammond)

We also made a little video of it, it's also attached if you wanna watch it



I look forward to your comments, thank you in advance.

Agustin

Intresting to hear all the different voices I guess through the same mic ?

Actually neither. I own both but I didn't have my rig with me (they live in San Antonio, TX. I live in Caracas, VE), I was working with my brother's, so we used some cheap pitch corrector he had. It didn't take a lot of it, 'cause I really pushed them to get good takes from the start, and they're all pretty good singers. If you want an opinion, I prefer Autotune over Melodyne.

cheers!

there's something really harsh and bright about the vocals specially at around 1:00

This is very charming and moving. It had to have meant a great deal to all involved. Quite a bit of talent in your family, and I think the song writing shows a lot of potential. With the right finishing touches, I do imagine this could reach a wider audience.

You guy can write some serious stuff! That was about as awesome as awesome gets. My only complaint is that the vocals sounded to heavily compressed for me, but that's my taste. Other than that definitely cool!
