I got the idea for this one at McD's. I was sitting outside eating at a table and a little bird landed about 3 inches from my hand and sat there for the longest time. I began to think I wonder where he has been and what he has seen. This was also used for the 'second person' week 8 challenge at 50/90 Songwriting Challenge. Here is the link. The bird is midi. The guitars and drum are Realtracs.

32. Little Bird (Spread Your Wings and Fly)

This song is a big departure from my normal type of music. The instruments are all midi with the exception of the real drums. It is 9/8 time. Here is the link

33. Fall On His Grace

Hi Robert,

Wow! I've been listening to some of your 50/90 songs. Your songwriting is zooming! "Fall On His Grace" is exceptional. It is lyrically simple, wonderfully melodic and spiritually uplifting; these features makes it highly memorable and perfect for a hymn. It's a real credit to you.

An interesting fact is that 9/8 was regarded by the Church in Bach's day as the perfect time signature because of its association with "3" (i.e. 9 = 3 x 3) and thus the Holy Trinity. For this reason, many of Bach's works are written in 9/8. The Church used to use a circle in the time signature to signify this time signature. If the time signature was anything other than 9/8, the Church used to use a half-circle. In time, this half-circle developed to become our "C" for "common time".

I'm heading back to listen to #33 again, now.

Regards,
Noel

Here is song 34 of the challenge. I got the idea for the song day before yesterday, sat down yesterday and wrote the lyrics, then put in Biab.

Style is Amplitude El Gtr Solo Ctry Workin

379 Bass
1518 Elec Gtr Solo
378 Acoustic Gtr Strum
RD=Nashville Train ev16
I also added 413 Electric Gtr Solo Train Pick

Here is the link The Finger


(c)2012 Robert Taylor


We've all seen this symbol thrust
When someone feels disgust
They raise their hand up in the air
Their middle finger waves
Lord it got me thinking
That the number one is used to point
I will be the finger Lord that points the way to You

I will be the finger Lord that points the way to You
I will flip the switch that brings the lost soul to the Light
I will be a helping hand to make their gray sky blue
I will be the finger Lord that points the way to You

When they have hit bottom Lord
When life has left them floored
I will stretch my fingers out and help and lift them up
I will use my fingers to caress away their pain
I will be the finger Lord that points the way to You

If we will lay down our sword
We'll see a brighter day
When every finger across the land
Is only used to shake another mans hand

Repeat chorus

Thanks Tommyc, I appreciate all of your feedback. I have always liked the blues. I loved the early blues by Elvis. The sound they got at Sun Studio was amazing. It is funny they call it the blues and yet the music itself is so lively in most cases.

This is a contemporary Christian/praise and worship tune. The bass came with the style I added the piano realtrac from a different style. It is song 37 of 50 for the 50/90 challenge. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to listen, and those who have given feedback. Band in a Box is the perfect songwriters tool. Of course you all know that, Lol! Here is the link

I have been thinking of this song for a long time. I have always wanted to put into music the Passion events. All of the tracks are Acid Music Studio Pro 6 loops, yeah I cheated guys LOL. I took my laptop today and began to listen to different tracks to see what would fit. It covers from Christ walk to Calvary to His Ascension to Heaven. Here is a time line of the events put to music, these may not be exact times but they are close. All feedback is welcome!

000-17s Walk To Calvary

18s-42s Nails and Agony

44s-1m Father Forgive Them, They Know Not What They Do

1m-1m11s Heaven Watches/Chaos Begins

1m12s-1m19s Total Chaos

1m20s-1m39s It Is Finished/The Temple Ripped From Top To Bottom

1m40s-2mn2s Anticipation

2m3s-2m21s The Stone Rolled Away

2m22s-2m28s He Is Risen

2m29s-2m44s Tell The World Our Redeemer Lives

2m46s-3m23s The Ascension

Here is the link 39. Calvary To Glory
