Hello Friends,


A song from my early days of BIAB. So this is a rough, It’s funny how sometimes Midi instrument sounds appeal to me, There was no way I could find a RT to replace that little piano in out clip no matter how I tried.

Hi Paddy,

nice song. No matter if you use Midi or not as long as it sounds good. And this sounds good.
Enjoyable listen.
I'd like to see the lyrics printed.

Paddy,

This has a very cool sound - excellent song and I really like your vocal delivery.

Bob

It is true that sometimes MIDI tracks have a freshness and tightness that simply works in a song.
This is another very fine contribution to the forum.
Good composition, lyrics and vocals.

Rob & Anne-Marie

What Guenter said!

And I'll add that this is a good match for your vocal delivery!

Nice one, Paddy.

Had a good "Gordon Lightfoot feel" to it.

Nice job on this - your vocal is confident.

Enjoyed it.

Enjoyed that nice and catchy chorus. Agree with Floyd a bit of Gordon Lightfoot there.

We're also down with the Lightfoot feel.

Very engaging with a clean airy mix.

Enjoyed it!

J&B

Paddy, I enjoyed it. Your vocal sounds very good on this one. Some of the midi super tracks sound better than the real tracks. Whatever gets the job done. Tom

Very pleasant tune!! I like that folk style. You arranged it right and your voice is perfect for this type of song. You're doing some great stuff!! Take care. Greg

I really like this one Paddy. Glad you brought it back!!

Hey mister she said put that whisky bottle down come and dance with me
I can see it on your lonesome face // your down that road of broken memories
I have been there so many times myself // I know the forest from the trees
So I will teach you every step I know// to the dance of broken memories

She said I once danced with princess and kings // from London Paris to Rome
Till I could see that really wasn’t me // I had left all the gold back at home
I had a good man a man of the soil // he could not see the gypsy in me
So I left to dance on my own // and him with broken memories

People ask why I dance alone with tears in my eyes
But I dance with the ghosts of the past // and I dance to broken lullabies
So mister put that whisky bottle down come and dances with me
I will teach you every step I know to the dance of broken memories
I will teach you every step I know to the dance of broken memories

Thanks for all the encouraging comments. I was told it good practice to add the lyrics if you can. I can see the value of that, hence the above


Paddy G
