Hi, friends !

to this point, but had to do it
anyway i.e. this little lovesong
to a slow funk rhytm !

You´ll Take My Breath Away (Music & Words by Norman Wibe)

Darlin,´ can you feel
for real
can you feel all these lovely vibes
and tell me how to deal
´cause I wanna hold you tight
all through this magical night
and it´s gonna be all so right
Oh, my , my, sweet sweet darlin´

Darlin,´your every touch
so much
joy and love will bring to me
sweetheart you´re in my clutch
´cause I wanna go hold you tight
all through this magical night
and it will be all so right
Oh, my , my, sweet sweet darlin´

Oh, you´ll take my breath away
hey, darlin´
your kisses will make me weak and sway
I´d say, I´d say

Darlin,´ a glance from your eye
can make me cry
out of joy and happiness
I think I´m goin´to fly
´cause I wanna hold you tight
all through this magical night
and it will be all so right
Oh, my , my, sweet sweet darlin´

Oh, you´ll take my breath away
hey, darlin´
your kiss will make me weak and sway
I´d say,
Oh, you´ll take my breath away
hey, darlin´
your kiss will make me weak and sway
I would say, I would say,
yes I´d say !

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Excellent love song!

Your vocal is really strong and the backing tracks are perfect. Love that slap bass!

Dani,

A nice combination - these "funky" tracks and your velvety vocals.

A sweet song. Some nice melody changes...

Well done.

When I saw the title I thought it would be a song about the virus smile ...Stay well!

I will admit, I didn't see that coming! smile

I like what you did. Very nice write and delivery. You two were made to sing together. NO doubt about that. Thanks for sharing. smile

Very nice Dani!

Your heartfelt writes and vocals are always
a bright spot.

Interesting choice of backing tracks and they

And of course....great harmony.

Very lovely,
