Always like to post a Love Song on January 1st. Happy New Year y'all.

WHAT LOVE WILL DO
BY David Snyder

https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs2/what-love-will-do

V1

Every time I look at you
I understand what I could be
You give me faith and lift me up
And the courage to believe
And when you’re praying late at night
I know sometimes you pray for me
So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need

CH:

AND THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
IT’LL TAKE A BRUISED OR BROKEN HEART
AND MAKE IT BETTER THAN BRAND NEW
AND THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
IT’S NOT HARD TO COUNT MY BLESSINGS
ANY TIME I LOOK AT YOU

V2

And when I look into your eyes
I’m at peace with everything
I feel sunshine everywhere
Even when there’s pouring rain

CH:

AND THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
IT’S NOT HARD TO COUNT MY BLESSINGS
WHEN I HAVE MY ARMS AROUND YOU

Inst.

AND THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
THAT’S WHAT LOVE WILL DO
IT’LL TAKE A BRUISED OR BROKEN HEART
AND MAKE IT BETTER THAN BRAND NEW
IT’LL TAKE A BRUISED OR BROKEN HEART
AND MAKE IT BETTER THAN BRAND NEW
THAT'S WHAT LOVE WILL DO

David,

An excellent Love-Song-write.

"And when you’re praying late at night
I know sometimes you pray for me
So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need"

Nice!

A very strong chorus, too.

A very sincere sounding vocal. Special.

David,
it's a sweet song carried by a good arrangement and lovely positive lyric but the rendition of the melody clunks at the end of the 1st line.


Cheers

"And when you’re praying late at night
I know sometimes you pray for me
So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need'

Were I (Bud) a talented song writer I would write something like this from me to Janice immediately!

Wonderful theme, lyric and production and so emotionally performed.

Wow!!

David, what a great start to a new year and what a fantastic love song.

"So you can tell the man upstairs
He gave me everything I need"

This is so true. I thank him everyday for my wife.

As you said "that's what love will do"!

I think this one of if not the best you have ever done. Great vocal and backing tracks. But man those lyrics really took it over the top for me.


I get most of my exercise these days from shaking my head in disbelief.

Well, David, that's what I call a nice habit...

But you're far too fast for me - I'm still turning over in my mind what I might comment on WHITE WRAPPING. The Kanye + DJT video is still haunting me in my nightmares, gimme a break... No song for European sissies, I suppose...

So it's a treat to listen to WHAT LOVE CAN DO - it's so nice... Just love everything about it: great backing track, excellently sung, very impressive.

Thanks for soothing my mixed-up mind and again Happy New Year.

Stefan

Very strong chorus that is musically climactic without being overwhelming. I like where the melody went at the end of the second verse on the line "Even when there’s pouring rain." Thanks for sharing your positive and heartfelt song.
