The Burt Bacharach Discussion Forum

Hey everyone,

A little while back I put up a version of me singing and playing this song that I wrote. But recently I collaborated with a singer based out of New York and here's what we came up with. Hope some of you like it.

Thanks for watching and take care.

What a beautiful song. Your chord structures and changes show you are a real true Burt Bacharach fan especially around 1"51. I also heard traces of Ne-Yo in your singing, composition, and lyrics. Are you inspired by him too? I dont know how well you are as an overall composer but dont be afraid to play around with melodies and instrumentation to add some exciting variety to your repertoire. With some percussion I hear your song having a vibe like this, a song NeYo wrote for Mary J Blige. hear is an amateur but well done Piano version that has a very Bacharach sound imo I will be listening out for more of your stuff.
