A song I wrote a while ago

Discussion in 'Our Music' started by Lenny Belardo, Sep 10, 2020.

  1. Recording quality and vocal performance aside, I'm surprised you found nothing evocative in these lines. I'm not saying I think its "special" but I do think it is suggestive and can be interpreted by the listener, which is something I always try and do. Not make a statement, but suggest images or emotions.
    I wrote it and I'd like to know what it means.

    Day comes through the window
    Breeze sings like a morning remedy
    Spring comes like a whisper
    Love grows on a branch of every tree

    And your eyes so wandered
    Sun kisses me drops of embers
    Trickle down my neck like a melody

    Catch a tear in the ocean
    World waits as she dries those tears of blue
    For you

    And in the dark he comes
    And no one knows he’s there
    Gives the people hope
    Shows you he cares
    And in the dark he comes
    Forgiving your mistakes
    Gives life to your dreams
    Gives love when you’re awake

    Night stops at the window
    As he brings the evening remedy
    Drops his tears in the ocean
    World sleeps as she pours those tears of blue
    For you


    And in the dark he comes
    And no one knows he’s there
    Gives the people hope
    Shows you he cares
    And in the dark he comes
    Forgiving your mistakes
    Gives life to your dreams
    Gives love when you’re awake

    Drops his tears in the ocean
    World sleeps as she pours those tears of blue
    For you

    I like it, Well done especially from that long ago. I used to love recording demo sessions. The band would come in and in a few hours you might have 1-3 nice songs. to be mixed on another day.

    I guess that I can't follow what you are trying to express and that I don't understand the story. There are evocative lines that help conjure visual representation of those lines, though for me I cannot fathom the whole in regard to its constitute pieces, kinda like not seeing the forest from the trees type of scenario. It's like I'm suffering from dyslexia and the letters on the page are very hard to pin down and makes it difficult for me to grab the gist.

    I'm a hard sell when it comes to critiquing art in general, and in retrospect a bit of a dick for not having PM'd you instead of originally posting here. Sorry for that.

    I disagree with your self-assessment :p It sounds great
     
  5. To break it down into its most simplistic expression I guess what I'm trying to say is there is a higher power that regenerates our collective creative spirituality. It comes at night when we sleep and readies us to be free each day, anew, fresh with each awakening.
    The tears of blue are the price we must pay for the pain and suffering of our creation.

    @Lenny Belardo Me likey bro. It's crowded,noisy and unpolished but has heart, the correct emphasis on melody, some interesting instrumentation/arrangement (i dig the bass a lot) and lyrical merits. All in all a most proper song with personality. I'd willingly remix the fk out of this vocal and some of the channels therein, in a funky down tempo fashion without hesitation.
    Nice work mate :)
