I composed this song at about the same time I wrote ‘Do You Love Me‘ when I was 15. I recorded it during my first year at University. Like the song ‘Upside Down’ I uploaded recently, I still feel that much more can be done with ‘The Big Day’ in regards to mixing. The main problem I have with it is that I don’t know exactly how it should sound, so I keep changing all the settings of all the tracks and the master mix to see if I prefer it or not. I could spend forever on this so I decided the last mix I’ve done is the final version and it is as good as it is going to get. If I re-recorded it I would take out a chorus or something because I feel it does get a bit repetitive at times. Anyway give it a listen below! 🙂

The song is about somebody who can’t sleep and is up all night worrying that something might go wrong at their wedding the next day.
