This is an old song I wrote thirty five years ago, does it still have merit ?, I don't know, I  think I like it because I sang it before I had the voice problems, all feedback appreciated. And I do know I definitely put too much reverb on it, :D

Thinking of you
I woke up this morning thinking of you
Your presence is with me in all that I do
You you you you you you
You you you you you you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you

I reached out to touch you but you were not there
My hand held the ribbon you wore in your hair
You you you you you
You you you you you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you

Guitar solo

Your love is a grape and I drank the wine
But now I am greedy and I want the vine
You you you you you
You you you you you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you
Round and around round and around
Thinking of you

Finish off with first verse fading out

Hola @Jazz101

it's the first song I heard today and I enjoyed it; it gave me a strange feeling to hear your voice from before... I liked it too.

To me it seemed like a timeless song, love songs have no expiration date!!!

It has a beautiful melody, very easy to listen to, and the musical repetition of "you" makes it appealing to hum, it's so catchy...

The only catch? The mix, here your voice was a little lost, maybe because you used an effect? I don't know but getting back to what matters, I'm humming it "you you you.." 
Me encantó!!
Have a nice weekend!

Thank you Mora,

I agree I did put too much reverb on it. I am going to update it with someone else singing, glad you like it, all the best,

Thanks Elvis, yes it was too much, It will be nice to bring it up to date with the right singer.

Pero bueno! Can you redo the mix? I think it's not necessary to change the singer, just give to your voice more level? just that!! @Jazz101

This is a great track. I agree with others here that the vocal is too far back in the mix. If you still have the original multitrack recording you could fix this easily. Otherwise there's some good Ai tools which may do the trick. I'm thinking of Steinberg's Spectral Layers, but there's a few others including some free online services. it would be worth putting in the time. I enjoyed this. :)
