Ok, I'll play along. Don't miss the secret message from Carlos near the end, where he explains who he has bequeathed with all of his magic powers for the rest of time.

Is she a white magic woman? I'm not sure if you made that completely clear...

that note from :27-:31 with the slight distortion is a Carlos signature sound that most people miss when they step up to this plate. Nice!

So I listened to all the songs doing the Santana challenge and kept you as the last one of them, David.
I thought you would come up with a lot of surprises in your song and you didn't disappoint me!

Let's start with the lyrics. Very good find from you to stick on that 'white magic women'.
Regrettably I couldn't understand your last secret words in Spanish, so the message will remain secret from me.

Then the song itself: Also a good find of you to base it on the original song. And you did that very well!

If singing was included in the contest, I think you got really close, but still not like the master, unfortunately.

And then your solo: For me you are the winner!!!

I hadn't expect you to play so well, but that's what you did (or have you hired someone? You can tell me in a private chatt).

Now there is one thing though...
I am not the judge of this contest. Keep that in mind as you celebrate my judgment,

Hans

I saw this post on my phone yesterday, but had to wait until to hear the magic you made, David. Man, those lyrics must have kept you awake nights just getting them right. Your guitar is really really engaging and quite accomplished. Well said, Carlos, and way to play that baton, David.


Enjoy whatever happens!

David,

Another great Santana offering—man, I’m glad I’m not judging this contest because it would be tough to choose. Cool guitar solo! Good stuff!

All my best,

White Muggle Fellow?
Lost a White Muggle Fellow
Lost a White Muggle Fellow

I've Lost a White Muggle Fellow
Got me so awake I am blind
That he's a White Muggle Fellow
He's tryin' to take a devil out of me

Don't turn to face me, oldie
Don't turn to face me, oldie

No, Don't turn to face me, oldie
Start muckin' around with your facts
Don't turn to face me, oldie
I just might put up my muggle acts

My dictionary oldie
Had My dictionary oldie

No I had my spell check baby
Turning your brain into pulp
You need me so good - muggle fellow
You can leave me here prone


Cheers

Haha David,

Do you mean she's a white "magic woman", or a "white magic" woman?
That's really important you know, because there's quite some difference between those two women!
According to the way you sing it, I think it's the first.

However, great song.
