I would like to dedicate my new song Kingdom Now to all the magnificent forum song posters who get out there every day, tearing it up, and inspiring me with their great songs that just keep getting better and better.
And also to my good buddy Hear To Learn who keeps relentlessly pushing and prodding me to new and dizzying heights of musical madness.
When midnight came I was dreaming I could fly an angel came from nowhere and took me for a ride we sang all night then she was gone and left me dreaming at the golden gates of dawn
PreChorus
And if you want it I'll show you how It’s a kingdom made of sound And if you missed it I'll break it down This whole world Is sacred ground
CH
And I’m not waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom anyhow I’m now waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom Cause I’m living in the Kingdom I'm living in the Kingdom Now

Each passing day Draws us to our destiny Faith is sometimes all we have Sometimes all we need So you be you and I’ll be me just keep believing That we really can be free
PreChorus
And if you want it I will show you how It’s a kingdom made of sound And if you missed it I will break it down This whole world Is sacred ground
CH
And I’m not waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom anyhow I’m now waiting on the Kingdom I’m not waiting on the Kingdom Cause I’m living in the Kingdom I'm living in the Kingdom Now

Band in a Box and Real Tracks: A lot.
Some from the “Enamor” and “Inspire” styles.
Also, various BIAB midi styles parts from 2001 to 2018 were blended into the mix. It’s a boiling brew. I basically raided the warehouse.
The instruction manual came in handy.

The cymbals are a part of the drum style I used but that is a fairly easy fix when it is time to press this. I will make a note of it. Thanks.
(It would sacrifice some of the turnarounds though which are part of the drive, but I kind of see/hear what you mean now that you point it out. I didn't really notice it before or at least it did not jump out at me.)

Yeah, haha. I think every new one is gonna be the masterpiece. I'm still writing songs. Nothing new to post for a while until I move the studio to the new house we're buying. Busy. Busy.
"When midnight came I was dreaming I could fly an angel came from nowhere and took me for a ride we sang all night then she was gone and left me dreaming at the golden gates of dawn"
That first verse grabbed me and never let go for the ride.
Yeah, man, be here NOW.
Huxley said, "After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music." I read that very recently but being old I can't remember where. Maybe here on the forum. For some reason this tune brought it to mind.
Nice one Mr Snyder

When the song started playing it wasn't at all what I expected! I'm not sure what exactly I was expecting to hear, but the sound that came out of my headphones wasn't it. That being said, that's not a bad thing! I was very surprised in a pleasant way, then I heard ...
"When midnight came I was dreaming I could fly. An angel came from nowhere and took me for a ride. We sang all night then she was gone, and left me dreaming at the golden gates of dawn."
This is really poetic writing and was very beautiful. So thank you very much for this cyrstal clear image! It really set the tone.
David, 'a kingdom made of sound" - love that line and many others. Your energy comes through in the vocal,drums, guitars, and all the other layers going on here. Awe, with a cool beat... welcome back!
David.. Really enjoyed this.. My favorite elements: 2nd time thru the chorus you added those little piano notes, just the right tiny sparkles to highlight the chorus.. Also liked how you brought down the arrangement to start the fadeout, then built it up again as you took it out.. And the overall track (melody, mix, lyric, vocal) all perfectly balanced and complimentary. Thanks for sharing your work!

Continuous 8 beats of bass and elec. guitar throughout this tune are very comfortable. I like this. It is suitable for highway drive. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
"When midnight came I was dreaming I could fly an angel came from nowhere and took me for a ride we sang all night then she was gone and left me dreaming at the golden gates of dawn"
That first verse grabbed me and never let go for the ride.
Yes, that first verse is pure gold. Also loved the "Kingdom made of sound" line.
Songwriting at it's best IMHO, not to mention a brilliant performance.
Wow - what a tune! I absolutely loved the progressions and melodies here. I'm getting a strong Tom Petty vibe here. A very strong, and catchy chorus and some impressive lyrics too. When those synth lines come in for the chorus, it put it over the top for me.
