Soliloquy The Young Son's Song ------------------------- Song #2 in the Trilogy. Here, the Young Son is reflecting/meditating the morning after returning to the Father. Maybe my most difficult song to produce, since it's all free-form...not being a confident performer, I couldn't rely on Style or RT's or even entering chords in BIAB to create the structure. It's taken me a long time to get this to a point where I wasn't frustrated and unhappy with it. Melody relies on #4 tones as passing tones to major chords. ------------------------ I open my night eyes, and I see where I am; There's a fragrance so fresh in the air; My pillow is sweet, and a robe's at my feet; And the ring on my finger's still there. I look in the mirror--it's the face of a prince; And I'm dressed in the clothes of the court. Amazed that it's so, 'cause the man that I know Who returned was a much different sort. Low was the road I wandered, Lusting for evil and sin; Wasted my selfish young years; The shame who I've been.. I gaze in the mirror and I can't understand How his mercy could loose what I'd done; Too filthy to hide, but his arms opened wide And my father said, "Welcome, my son!"

Nice song. It held my interest throughout and you've got a well mixed clear production. I could hear a little of your lack of confidence in the vocal in spots but you have a very nice voice so hang in there. This is a quality write and production and I look forward to hearing more from you soon. Enjoyed listening.

Really interesting song.
I like the free form aspect. It has that modern art sound going on big time.
Very creative!!

Excellent!
You are an excellent musician as well as a singer and songwriter.
I can picture Michael Bublé singing this!
My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Hello, Tom
This song is so beautiful!
Excellent melody and chord progression!
A little bit Tom Jobim's feel.
A little bit Michel Legrand's touch.
I love this much.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Wow - simply put, this is beautiful. I love how stripped down the backing tracks are. It gives it an almost haunting quality. I really like experimental music, and this is right on the cusp of what I'd consider that. A great example of what Band-in-a-Box is capable of here. Thanks for sharing 
Cheers,
Deryk
