Hi Tony, For what this song is, it works well. You do a good job of telling his story in a creative way. Your lyrics describe the people who surrounded the Kid Juan Pizarro well. I could see you singing this in a bar or at an open mic and doing your thing man. It's a good song! The production is very good too. I wish had more but I honestly don't have much more to offer here. I don't think Tarantino would use this in a movie and I'm not sure what element or what film of his or music use makes you think he would this is a blues/spoken word track which I guess could be a background use in a film if there was a scene where someone was sitting in a bar talking a performer was up on stage singing this. Its a good track, but I really don't think its right for tarantino or syncs in general. because of the specificity of the lyrics, it makes it hard to sync
Artist's Submitted Question:
Hi Jody -Did this song specifically with a Tarantino esque film credit roll or crime movie in mind -its off of a C D I released called "Dreadful News" It came with a crime newspaper fold out with cooresponding news stories to each song Would really appreciate your review. Thanks Tony D
Hopefully I answered this question above. If you're going to write for getting a sync, your lyrics would want to be more general. Of course there are exceptions and I've been wrong before. I would focus on creating ethereal moods with your instrumentation and then maybe some ooo's and ahhh's or some type of gospel spiritual thing would suit your voice well Having great production is half the battle and you already have accomplished that which is fantastic! And you are an artist and I can hear that in your performance. You know who you are as an artist which works for selling CDs. Selling CDs is different though from getting a SYNC. If you want to get a trailer spot, for example, the construction of your song would be very formulaic. Watch the trailers online that use original songs and you'll see what I mean...study their arrangements and instrumentation.
