Lyrics:

It’s a long way to Monday without you
White walls and wailing, I won’t make it through

Is there any love left that I could borrow?
I won’t forget you; will I remember tomorrow?

Night watered breezes tangled through your hair
Who’s running their fingers when I’m not there

Is there any love left that I could borrow?
I won’t forget you; will I remember tomorrow?

Morphine kisses
Stitches with misses
Infectious calumny
Lay your hands on me

Your jazzy rhythm walk keeps repeating
Last night I felt my heart stop its beating

Is there any love left that I could borrow?
I won’t forget you; will I remember tomorrow?

"No story. No glory. Just a song." No, just a masterpiece!

I really liked this song. You vocal, harmonies, instrumentation, lyrics and mix are all top shelf. My toe was tapping from the git go.

This is definitely a winner that you should be very proud of.

Hi, this one is First Class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Could easily fit right in to a movie soundtrack. Please get this song out there for the world to enjoy...everyone has been in this moment at one time or another.

Respectfully,

I won’t forget you; will I remember tomorrow? is a very evocative line. No story? So I get to invent one with clues from your song? Cool!

Loved the changes. Those sus4ths are nearly always in my toolbox...such a nice "reaching" quality to them. Now, tell me there aren't any and I'll slink away embarrassed.

Band and voice are in top form. I really enjoyed this.

The harmonies are ace and lift the excellent song beyond the present...very late 60s coolness.

Hi Ezekiel,

This is a very good song, with strong (but sometimes difficult to translate)lyrics.
The way your song is composed makes it works out hypnotic 9in a way) and especially intriguing.
I like that in a song.

Have a nice day,
Hans

A really nice production. Build well.

Cool vocals. The harmonies sound so tight I'd guess they were generated?? - really well done (live? melodyne? BIAB?) - nice.

A lyric that really keeps the ear and the mind engaged.

There is an interesting 60's vibe to this that cannot be pinned down - folk stuff like Peter, Paul & Mary or even The Mamas and the Papas...with some Lemmon Pipers and Strawberry Alarm Clock mixed in...

Well done.

That line and this "Night watered breezes tangled through your hair
Who’s running their fingers when I’m not there". You're good with words Ezekiel's Storm, but I only have one. WOW!

Really love how this song builds.
Wonderful job you have done on this.

Maybe the best I've heard from you with intriguing lyrics and your always good vocals. And a great ending to boot. Nice work!!

Sometimes "just a song" is just as powerful! I think you did an especially good job on the vocals. They really helped set the tone.

Thanks for sharing!

Mario, Notebynote, Ray, Hans, Floyd, Marty, Rob, Tunemonger, Ember:

Thanks so much for listening to my little song and for posting such positive comments.

Tangmo:

Your ears are correct. I was tooling around with the chorus first (Bb6, Abmaj7, Cmaj7, Cm7, G, Gsus4), then decided to write the verses around a sort of drone of G, Gsus4 repeating. Thanks for your feedback.

Really nice feel to this one. I like it a lot.

Loved it. A more "serious" song if that makes sense ... where the vocals and, of course, the writing (for me) are what "steal the show". Great job.
Posted By: AudioTrack Re: Will I Remember Tomorrow - 02/12/20 08:34 AM
One of the first things that really impressed me was the chord progressions.

The lyric phrasing is superb.

All of this absolutely complemented with perfect vocal delivery.

Yes, a masterpiece.

Ezekiel's Storm,
Arrangement is very (Very!) strong. Definitely not "just" a song. It would take me years to write something complex like this smile Vocals & production is pro level. Enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

I enjoyed the smooth chording, the sweet sounding band and your silky voice. Beautiful lyrical images. Nicely flowing build up to the excellent psychedelic ending.

A really excellent song, great feel and top notch vocals.

Superb stuff.

I have to write brief thanks to you guys. Grading and lesson has been eating up my time more than a WalMart shopper on free hot dog Sunday.

Leon, Musician 17, Video Track, Misha, Janne, Peter:

I appreciate your comments. You are much too kind. As for my vocals, digital tech makes me sound better than I am. However, I think I sound best when I'm hearing me in my head, but then on the recording, I think WTF, I ain't putting that out there! smirk

one- Two - and - three - and - Four - and - Drawed me right in and the next thing I knew I was locked in....Time flies when you're having fun. very nice job.

Deceptively simple with a really good chord progression and imaginative production that leans into 60`s psychedelic pop ( an era I enjoy very much).
Excellent vocals and a very good mix.
Cool music!

Robert

My favorite of yours Scott! I love the twists and turns of the melody and chord structure in the verses! VERY effective use of strings in this! Your vocals are excellent! I feel this is your best work that I've heard! So many good things happening with all the instrumentation! One of the top songs posted in the forum as far I'm concerned! Thanks, Torrey
Posted By: Deej56 Re: Will I Remember Tomorrow - 02/14/20 10:45 PM
Ezekiel,

Love, just love the vocals and harmonies on this—really well executed, so pretty on the ear. Clean production that keeps pulling the listener in, more and more as the song progresses. And then that magnetic bridge. Very impressive work here, and a truly engaging listen! Great work!

All my best to you,

Deej

Thanks, Robert. I was aiming for a bit of psychedelia with a brief tip of the hat to Klaatu's "Sub-Rosa Subway" ending.

Thanks for those encouraging words!

Well, it didn't take long for folks to fill up the superlatives cup!

And well deserved it is.

We have little to add to all the goodness that has been stated...
The write, vocals, band and mix are all outstanding.

We will mention how much we like writes that let the listener
connect a few dots. Great example of that!

Much enjoyed it.

Came back for another listen, this one is special, methinks...
Posted By: dcuny Re: Will I Remember Tomorrow - 02/18/20 04:28 AM
I agree there's a strong '60's feel underlying this.

I enjoyed the trip! laugh
Posted By: rsdean Re: Will I Remember Tomorrow - 02/18/20 07:02 AM
What a great song and sound! I love the 60s vibe.

Production is excellent as are the vocals.

Really enjoyed this one!

For "Just a song" ... this ain't to shabby!!! Actually it's excellent! The excellent harmony shouts "Mamas and Papas" to me. Love the the little extra at the end! Best to you ...

Alan

Very cool lyric and vocal. Harmonies were excellent. Loved the laid back acoustic in the backtrack. Such a lovely song. Well done.

Nice dreamy song...
With some vivid images...

Night watered breezes tangled through your hair
Who’s running their fingers when I’m not there

I enjoyed listening to your composition.
