discuss intelligently and tell me how shitty it is.

What all did you cover? Just the voice, or did you do the instrumentals as well?

Your voice is flat in some of the parts, and it also starts lagging and is behind by a second or two behind the beat somewhere around the chorus. In fact, now that I listen to the whole song, your voice is completely missing the beat, it's either too early or too late.
But the instrumental is pretty on-point! The instrumental sounds exactly like the Tears for Fears song.

just the vocals. the instrumental version has that wicked ending portion though; it's pretty sweet.

yeah, there is some kind of offset that i can't account for. i was on beat when i was recording, i had to edit some parts to even make it fit at all.... oh well, the cringe is real.

Yeah, I'd say you need to work on it a bit. Timing was off in spots, maybe using a headphone setup through an audio mixer (to eliminate perceived latency while recording) would help getting everything on beat.

yeah, that's what i think, it literally has some kind of latency, that i, as a hu-man, can't account for without some prior knowledge on the recording/production process.
but it was fun though. it wasn't meant to be perfect.

i don't really have a set-up for audio engineering of this sort. it can be processed internally, what music i make less seldom; in this case, i literally just started singing a beat behind, then corrected some of the spots by cutting out of the quiet parts.
if i was recording more vocals and live instruments into my comp, i'd consider the whim to purchase more mixing equipment.
but for now bricolage is perfectly fine for me. like i said, it doesn't need to be perfect; my own edification needs not be perfect. i just had fun doing it either way.
the more people cringe, the better. 
but thanks, i'll bookmark that, in case it ever comes in handy.

Yeah, I'm just sharing the info as to why it is that way, and how people alleviate it. It stumped me for ages when it came to recording guitar.
You don't have to get too crazy with anything equipment wise. I use one of these, and you could go even cheaper. So long as you can hear on your headphones what's happening without it going through a computer (which needs to modulate it to a digital signal, and then back to an analog one), you hear things relatively instantaneously.
It gets trickier when you try to use digital effects through the computer though.

audio engineering is a tricky thing.
but it's weird, it's not like i recorded my singing into the computer...no, just a handheld microphone recorder...so i still don't really fathom how it had that delay, seeing as it wasn't recorded into the computer. 'splain that.
all i did was follow along with the song through headphones and recorded it on to the handheld, and those two pieces of equipment are separate.

Ah, I was assuming you were recording into a microphone connected to the computer and possibly going off that. I mean, if it's choppy all over without any latency issues while recording, you really just got to work on keeping the beat.
Laying an audible metronome throughout the song might help. I suck at singing and mine would be all over the place as far as timing goes.

I couldn't really understand the words. That might just be me though- I usually have a hard time with lyrics. I gather it's about the shroomery?
The original is one of my all time favorites. In fact, just the other day I made a post discussing how remarkably relevant the thematic content of Tears for Fears's songs is these days. The post includes some covers/remixes. You can find it here: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23940147#23940147

yeah uploading it had caused the vocals to get drowned out a little bit from what i had heard.
my favorite part is
Shroomery- where the mods won't ban you Trolling hard while the shitbirds tumble down When they poop I'll be lol'ing, mind you
So glad I've almost claimed it Sad when they try to meme it Everybody screws the message board
oh and Tears fucking rocks. neverending.

i tried to just improvise the lyrics over nothing, and then edit it in, and got some parts better, but then some parts are worse. no wonder it costs so much damn $ to produce a record- all those takes. =\
oh well, the cringe version will have to do.
