Hi, friends !:))

I´ve been off road quite
a bit so there has not really
been time to write or produce
anything new ! Sorry for that,
as I´d love to write and compose !

Anyway, I´ll put this little
Christmas Country up as
Xmas is slowly creeping upon us
once again and it felt like the
time needed a wintry tune !

The Style is: CNTRYSH.STY
and the instros are:

Bass: 539
Piano: 2043
Drums: RD:S Country Shuffle
Guitar: 372
Pedal Steel: 370
Synth Pad: 1840

Recorded with Mixcraft 7 pro, stagg mic used

Lyrics:

My Wintertime (Music and lyrics by Norman Wibe)

Air is gettin´cold
you need to be bold
while the temp is droppin´low
snow on the ground
ice down below
you´ll have to be rightly dressed, to to get yourself around
I love you wintertime of mine , wow!
you make me feel so very fine !
playin´ a drift
needin´some thrift
will satisfy like nothin´ down the line

Everythin´is white
feelin´allright
pushing thru the snow
just movin´on
yeah sure, but slow
doesn´t matter if the autumn´s temporar´ly lost and gone
I love you wintertime of mine , wow!
you make me feel so very fine !
Feelin´the wind
chillin´my chin
that´s the sign for Christmas time, there´s no better sign !


Air is gettin´cold
you need to be bold
while the temp is droppin´low
snow on the ground
ice down below
You´re gonna love my wintertime
You´re gonna love my wintertime

Cheers
Dani

Hello, Dani

I wonder if it already snows in Finland.
It will take a little more time until we will have snow in Japan.
What a pleasant song.
A merry feeling is brought to me.
I hear Brian Wilson in this tune too.
Very Enjoyable listen.

Best Regards.

Dani,

You`ve made me feel better about the gloomy West Coast grey day
here. I pictured Fred Astaire dancing to this.
Beautiful harmonies ( especially like that low part!)
and a nice melody.
Very enjoyable.

Pretty song evocative of imaginary White Christmas here.

Excellent lyric and vocal Dani. We have had our first snow fall a couple of weeks ago. Perfectly timed :-)

Have to say this is the first X-mas song I've listened to this year, and it puts me in the mood!! Sweet harmonies. Has that celebratory feel appropriate for the season. Another Dani classic!! Take care. Greg

Great song to start out the season of carols smile LOVE the vocal harmonies, someone mentioned Brian Wilson upthread and I really can't agree more. We don't get much snow in this part of Canada but maybe we'll be lucky this year!

Hi, Robert !:))

I hope you can forgive me
for not thanking you for
your most kind words for
My Wintertime, that I thus
have to use as my x-mas tune for
this year!:))

I am hopelessly after
regarding the music posted
on the site, but all my good
friends are still posting or at
least most of them and that is
remarkable indeed !:))

With this I´d like to wish
all my old (and new) friends on
the site as well as Peter and the
staff at PG a most wonderful
Christmas and a superb New BiB year
2022 !

Cheers
Dani

Dani,

It's great to see you still posting music! I know you took a hiatus a while back and had doubts about producing more music, but this proves you still have the talent and ability to offer up fantastic work! It's a lovely song! Thanks, Torrey

Hi, Dani.

It's nice to hear you, even as a callback.

I enjoyed the harmonies and mellow arrangement! smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
