David James Martinez ft Selena C – Taste of Happiness (Original)

Bio: I am a singer-songwriter out of Mississauga, Ontario. I love music, and I write it from the heart. Sharing my music, and being able to connect with others through the music, is one of the most wonderful things I’ve ever experienced. I hope you enjoy the music too.

    I like the song, cool. Thanks :-)
    How do you want others to percive you?
    Think about this a little, and visualize how you think you appeared in your "video". Then take a look on what you have done, and see if this fits with your expertation of your selves.
    Again, thanks for a cool song.

  • Hello David & Selena,

    That was a fun way to start your video...nobody's submitted one with that kind of intro yet. It's also very cool that you both go from goofy and fun to soft and sexy. I really dig the way the two of you blend notes when you blues them. Vocally, it can be a real nightmare if the singers aren't syncing up or are trying to one up each other...yawl don't have that problem!

    Languid and sultry, "Taste of Happiness" is like a warm summer's day or maybe it's because I live and Florida. It's hot and humid outside, storm's rollin' in, and you two are cooing through my speakers...it fits the mood of my day today.

    For most of the song you stay on key. What you might want to spend a little more time on is the parts where you're rockin' a little harder. Selena you fall out of pitch here more often than David. Check out 3 minutes 26 seconds into the video...you both go a little south on pitch and blend. And then a bit more near the back end of the song. Still, I enjoyed this way more than I didn't. Those are small points that I know you can easily remedy with a little more attention. I really liked this submission!!!

    You both have a personable approach to your internet audience and a great song to back up your vibration. I look forward to hearing more from you. There's a ton of talent, appeal, and marketability with your blend. David, I checked out some of your other vids...you seem like a really cool guy and I think it's great that you reach out to other artists to showcase your talent...humility is a beautiful thing.

    Namaste,

    Brian
