Hi. Here's my newest composition. I hope you enjoy it. It's a love song with a Latin feel, from a singer who is not very confident about himself.

Bass, Guitar, Pianos are MIDI from Jazsalsa.
Vocal, vibes, trumpet and flute are mine.
I mixed this in the Reaper DAW, using some reverb from one of their VSTs.
As It Happens: copyright 2017, Sam Buttrey:
When I'm with you, it makes me want to try to dance,
You make me feel like I can fly through the air,
But as it happens I can't dance at all,
I look ridiculous, but I don't care.
When I'm with you, it makes me want to sing out loud,
You make me want to raise my voice to the sky,
But as it happens I can't sing a note,
And when I start, it makes the children cry.
In my dreams I hold on to you with heart and hands,
But if you see or hear me when I sing or dance,
There's no chance.
What can I do to make you start to notice me?
Perhaps some poetry would do the trick.
But as it happens I can't rhyme at all,
Except for several bawdy limericks.
---------------------------------------------------------
I'd paint a picture like the ones DaVinci made,
So future generations honor your name.
But as it happens I can't draw at all,
I still have trouble with that "Hangman" game.
I'd cook a meal for all your senses to enjoy,
The kind to bring an epicure to his knees,
But as it happens I can't cook a lot,
Just macaroni and that powdered cheese.
All these things that I want to do to make you mine,
Let me be the man you thought you'd never find --
Never mind.
What can I do to make you start to notice me?
Perhaps a new Ferrari, something like that.
But as it happens I just bike to work,
In orange vest and stupid plastic hat.
---------------------------------------------------------
When I'm with you, it makes me want to try to dance,
You make me feel like I can fly through the air,
But as it happens I can't dance at all,
I look ridiculous, but I don't care --
I look ridiculous, but I don't care.
