The lyrics for this one were written by fellow South African Marthie Nel Hauptfleisch

FALLING IN LOVE

Lyrics:

Oh Why Do I want you like I do
Do Need you like I do
Miss you like I do
Oh When Will I feel your hands again
will I Taste your lips again
Read your eyes again


chorus

If we can make it Through this
Nothing can stop us From falling in love
yes If we make it Through all of this
Nothing will stop us from Falling in love


3)Everytime
You catch me by surprise
Drown my head in highs
Leave me hypnotized


So just tell me one more time
You miss me One more time
Tell me What this is
is Tell me that it's love

Joanne,
A very sweet melody you`ve given to Falling In Love and your crystal clear vocal makes this a keeper.

Somehow I missed this one totally.... wow.... love the combination of the children's lullaby lyrics with the reggae music..... so very cool.

What a great song.

Thanks Floyd, Robert, Janice and Bud and Herb for checking back in. I appreciate it. Herb, were you referring to "Song to wake you in the morning"? Just can't pinpoint any reggae in my songs so not sure which one you are referring to.

Nearly on the home run! My FAWM profile has a "cup" on it for reaching the finishing line but there are still two "cheats" (two duplicates) So still going to try and get the last two in before the end of the month.

Here are some lyrics that could be interpreted to be slightly political so may not appeal to all but if anybody would like to set them to music I would really appreciate it (I am starting to run out of steam!). They are Based on the poem "The White House"
by Claude McKay, 1889 - 1948

Your door is shut
against my face,
As sharp as steel
with discontent;
But with courage
And with grace

Chorus
I hold myself
to the letter
of your law
I bear my anger
proudly

The pavement stabs
beneath my feet,
And passion strides
upon the street;
Where boldly shines
your shuttered suit

I search for wisdom
every hour,
inside my body
Low and raw,
And buried deep
I find my power

Chorus
I hold myself
to the letter
of your law
I bear my anger
proudly

Bridge
I keep my heart inviolate
Against the poison of your hate.

Chorus
I hold myself
to the letter
of your law
I bear my anger
proudly

And for my grand finale I am posting THIS ONE. Yes it is a political Hip Hop tune.

THE LETTER OF YOUR LAW

I get the feeling that political songs are not very popular this FAWM but I thought I would finish off with this anyway. Because it is political and is about anger I could not think of anything to do but yell! Hence you do not have the pretty folk song that you may come to expect from me but a rather ugly hip-hop one!. Oh well. My very first HIP HOP song. FAWM is certainly a good place to experiment and BIAB is the most versatile tool for trying out something new.

I will say that I wont be putting it on my FAWM album which will be called "A song to wake you in the morning"!!

It is based on the poem "The White House" by Claude McKay, 1889 - 1948

Lyrics:

Your door is shut against my face,
As sharp as steel with discontent;
But with courage And with grace
I bear my anger proudly

Chorus
I hold myself to the letter of your law
I bear my anger proudly

The pavement stabs beneath my feet,
And passion strides upon the street;
Where boldly shines your shuttered suit
I bear my anger proudly

Chorus
I hold myself to the letter of your law
I bear my anger proudly

I search for wisdom every hour,
inside my body Low and raw,
And buried deep I find my power
I bear my anger proudly


Chorus
I hold myself to the letter of your law
I bear my anger proudly

"The Letter Of Your Law" is really cool! It has some swagger to it and you really deliver the goods - loved it!

Joanne,
Plus 1 for your gutsy take on this poem. If anyone could make hiphop sound sweet its you...but yes, you gave us a good gritty version of yourself!
Some interesting voices in the background and a nice production job, under some time constraints as well.

Than you Will and the Bob brigade (rsdean,Bob Buford and Robert) for taking the time to listen to this experiment. It is appreciated.

CONVERSATION AFTER THIRTY YEARS

So here is number 14. These most haunting lyrics were written by Elizabeth Petty. I just don't know whether they are happy or sad or just plain realistic and I also can't decide if I want to end up this way or if I don't. But I nearly weep everytime I think about them.

Anyway, here is my musical take on them. One person on the FAWM forum said it reminded them of Simon and garfunkel "bookends".

If you listen on headphones you will notice that I panned the versus and the "choruses" to opposite sides to give the feeling of a conversation between two people. I balanced this panning with midi generated lines that follow the line of my vocal. I pitched up the verse midi line and used a violin. For the "chorus" I pitched the midi line down and used a cello. The idea was to give the impression of the versus being sung by a woman and the "choruses" being the mans reply.
Lyrics:
do you think it will stay this warm
from now until the start of spring?
or do you think it's a fluke kind of
bizarre climate change thing?
em
I don't really know.
whatever you believe
I will say that it is so

should we take the dog next time to a
new and different dog groomer?
or do you like the old puppy cut
she got from that lady on Spooner?

I don't really care
do what you think is best
for her and her hair.

did you see that the Bedfords
bought a new car I think it's a Jeep?
or do you think it is a Japanese
look a-like one they bought for cheap?

I don't really think
what the neighbors get
haven't seen their new car yet

did you ever imagine we would be
together for over thirty years?
do you ever remember worrying
that we would lack things to say dear?

Yah it is officially OVER. I have 15 new songs most of which I am very proud of and will be released on iTunes on a new album shortly. Thank you so much to all my collaborators. Liz Petty, Arthur Rossi, Bob Buford, Marthie Hauptfleisch and Cynthia Wolff. You have made this FAWM absolutely fantastic and something to be repeated many more times...

I could NOT resist these wonderful lyrics written by Liz Petty so ended up writing and recording two songs in my last day.

ENOUGH (CEMENT SHOES)

Lyrics:

Enough (Cement Shoes)

V1
working two jobs
raise three children
fighting back the tears
when she is hurting

taking the hits
trying to stay married
ignoring all the pain
that she has carried

PC
and now she has had enough
no... more...strength.... to stay tough....

C
she's got cement shoes on
walking in the water
somebody's mother
somebody's daughter

she's got cement shoes on
treading in the water
its the only option
that life has taught her

and the water drowns her tears...

V2
sitting at home
watch the window
feeling all alone
since she's a widow

missing her kids
knowing that they are busy
waiting for their call
she grows more lonely

PC
and now she has had enough
all... the.. sadness... is too much.....

C
she's got cement shoes on
walking in the water
somebody's mother
somebody's daughter

she's got cement shoes on
treading in the water
its the only option
that life has taught her

and the water drowns her tears....

B
waves of women
broken battered
still crash against a shore
waves of women
empty forgotten
will haunt us evermore



C
they've got cement shoes on
walking in the water
somebody's mother
somebody's daughter

they've got cement shoes on
treading in the water
that is the only option
that life has taught them

and the water drowns their tears....

Just listened to a selection of these songs. Excellent work - some really pretty melodies, and vocals abound.
Really well done.
Finished off with the last one Conversation After 30 years which has a lovely haunting sound and melody.
