Original Song

Post by BB4LIFE »

Hello Everyone,

This is my latest "creation." I'm pretty proud of it. Lyrically I'm always inspired by Hal David. I think in this particular song I kept things quite simple as far as the lyrics go. I just came up with it during the last week or so. But I really spent a good amount of time on it in the wee small hours of the morning (this morning). I'm exhausted now and need to sleep. But I wanted to share it with anyone who might care to watch it.

Thanks and take care.

Really good. I hear the BB/HD influences. I am not sure what your full instrumentation would consist of or whether you would keep it stripped down like that but it would be interesting to see what it would sound like finished. You and the song have alot of potential.

Geoff - Thank you very much. I'd definitely have to put some strings in there somewhere. I love strings and piano together. Maybe I'll get around to doing it one of these days. Thanks again for the compliments. I appreciate it.

Vincent - I don't know man? Someday...perhaps, haha. Take care.

This song is so great I don't know what else to say. You can tell you are a true Bacharach fan. I would take out the cheap midi instrument though. If you replace that you have a masterpiece.
