Lyrics:

Be In Love Again (by Dani) ©Dani Lindroos 2014

Be in love again
what a lovely feeling
I never thought I´d feel this way
I hid my love away

Then you just came by
oh, you lovely being
and now you´re mine
for you I´ll pine
you make me feel so fine, so fine

When you look at me
love is what I´m seeing
in your light gray eyes
so nice, I love you oh my babe

Long to be with you
love to feel your kissing
and thru the night
I hold you tight
and it will feel so right
so right

to be in love
fall in love
be in love
fall in love

Solo
be in love
fall in love
be in love
fall in love
I´m in love again

Dedicated to Li !

Cheers
Dani

Well Dani, every so often everything seems to fall into place and a song so exceeds expectations that it reaches to the heights of Spectacular. This is one of those songs. This is a well written song, the style, vocals, mix and especially the harmonies are all spot on. But there's more. Aleck's solo takes this one over the top. Great collaboration.

You have truly raised the bar for your future posts with this one. One of your best, if not the best you've done so far. I don't think a song and performance could fit you any better. Thanks for posting. I love this one.

Another Dani classic with the wonderful harmonies. Love the panning you use on the vocal and also the key change. Loved Deans solo. Nice collaboration guys.

Great song, I have never tried doing a vocal song in odd time, this one meters so well with the lyrics; thanks for sharing!

Hi, Charlie ol´pal !:))


You are just too kind with me
but as you know I do feel most humble by
your most kind words !:))

The 5/4 meter is not necessarily
the easiest of meters to work
with and there are no soloists
(none that I know od) that can handle
a solo to that meter ! I feel most
humble that Dean offered to play
a solo to it ......and what a solo !!!

Cheers
Dani

Dear friend Guenter !

I know you love harmonies
and honestly I also had you
in mind (in fact every time)
when pondering on if and in
that case how many voices to
put into the mix ! :))

Dean´s solos are nothing less than
unearthly !:))

Thank you Guenter for your
most kind words

Hi, Robert !:))


Thank you for your most kind
words ! The odd meter, yes,
there could be a lot more of
them as they often make music
more interesting than most
used meters ?

Really interesting and cool tune!! And, what a killer solo by Dean! I feel the vocal processing could be a bit lighter and the level a bit higher in some parts. Great stuff!! Take care. Greg

Hi, Greg !:))


Yes, I think you are right,
it sounds a bit heavy and
sharp at places !:))
I think we must blame it on
the poor mixing abilities of
the composer ! (chuckle) !!:))
Thank you, Greg, for your
most kind and constructive words !

Cheers

A fine example of what this BIAB community
can produce with collaborations. This sparkles
and the harmonies are gorgeous. Then you
have the cool guitar behind it all. Glad this
one fell into place for you!!

We enjoyed it.

Floyd,

We thank you. It's good that you didn't get to learn the whole story behind this Keystone Kops Kollaboration. I am going to leak some of it when I send a comment to Dani.
