Hi, friends ! Sorry for having been off side for too long but there´s not much I´ve been able to do to it as I´ve been in a frantic episode of my life with among other things travels abroad ! In any case, I found an older song I had written before and thought that perhaps I could finish it somehow and here is the result: http://soundcloud.com/user-337827005/sooth-me http://app.box.com/s/52vfwfjznosonpa6dx92abosmarlq04r ...and here are the lyrics: SOOTH ME ! (MUSIC AND LYRICS BY NORMAN WIBE) When I´m feelin´blue I´ll be turnin´to you you´re the only one noone else around ´cause you´re so true always so true When I´m feelin´sad and it feels truly bad you take away my pain easin´all the strain makin´ me so glad baby so glad There are times when darkness fills my inner mind when I feel I´m just left behind sooth me, baby just sooth me in your arms that´s where I wanna be Verse solo Take away my pain ease all my strain and I´m so glad baby so glad Since we met I´m not alone feels so good to strike a tone that´s new and not too old almost like of gold feels like our love,my darling, it has grown feels like our love,my darling, it has grown Recorded with mixcraft 7 pro, compressor and reverb used ! STYLE: HEPN120.STY INSTROS: Bass 684, Piano: 2495, Drums: RD:s Nashville even8/hihat ride, Guitar 1: 405, Guitar 2: 543, soloist = Guitar 3: 1356 Brent ! Cheers Dani

I liked the feel of the song, but I feel it was disrupted by the choice of the twangy type guitar solo -
like the solo was being stretched to a tempo where it suddenly sounded like a distraction (who is that guitar god noodling like yngwie J Malmsteen in the background?)
I am also a mixcraft 7 user - they would have done much better building version 8 around a BIAB intgration instead of that melodyne work they did. Perhaps its sour grapes because I already have the full melodyne software and their integration doesnt add much for me :-)

Hi FabKebab !
Very many thanks to you for
taking the time to listen and
comment ! Thank you so much for
that ! the Guitar God is Brent Mason
and there are not many there who
can play these kind of fills, you do
agree, don´t you ? :))
Take Care
Cheers
Dani

Dani,
I really like this song - one of your best, I think. Very nice melody. Your vocal and harmonies are well done.
I did not care for the guitar fills... they don't fit the sweetness of the song. It was busy. I think a different lead instrument would suit the song better. A smooth sax, maybe? An e. piano?
Cool song.

I agree about the musicianship - but I think it is played too fast at the tempo of your song and would be better removed from this track

Hi, Floyd !
Thank you for your most
kind and instructive
words ! I did change the
tune i.e. I did take the
fills away but left the
solo as I could not change it anymore !
Cheers
Dani

Dani,
It's great to see a new post from you! I'm real glad you've taken time out from gallivanting around and have put together this latest from your songwriting desk.
I enjoyed it. As floyd said, I reckon that this is one of your best. You've done a terrific job!
Best wishes to you and Li on your travels,
Noel

Very smooth, Dani. Good to hear one from you! (If I was going to be pulled away from the forum, I would like for it to be due to traveling abroad, as long as it was for fun.) Thanks for sharing this one. Steve

Dani, another great delivery
Interesting selection of chords throughout the song, gave it great appeal.
Liked it from start to finish.
