Default We Three Kings by Broddie

I was trying desperately to finish another Xmas original but I'm stuck on the words, so while waiting for inspiration, I started playing some classical-type guitar, and I noticed that the tune for "Romanza" is very similar to "We Three Kings."
This is the second take. Reverb is the only effect. I'd like to record it again in a real live room, because GarageBand's reverb effect is the suck.

Mic hotter than I thought, but it's late and time to let go....

edit: Oh yeah, I just got a Presonnus tubepre and I don't know how to use it yet. It ****ed up the sound but added more noise than you'd expect to hear from a Rode NT1-A. My bad probably.

edit: Ooops, I used the dreaded w-bomb and it got filtered out.

LOL!!! One star. Yes, I agree It's not necessarily terrible, just probably not contest-worthy. And after listening critically now I can see that I shouldn't have posted it in the contest.
Good call whoever rated the thread. I'm actually glad someone had the balls to point out when someone sucks. I'm not being sarcastic at all when I say "Thank You."
