Hi, friends !:))I finally got my gear working again
and will be posting some new material soon 1
In the meantime I felt I had to remix this one
as many of my listeners had mentioned that the
background had too much noise i.e. the background
vocals and after I´ve listened to it I had to
agree ! Don´t know if it is better now but .....?

The instros are the same as on the earlier version
it is only the mix that has changed !

SURFERS FATE (Music and Lyrics by Norman Wibe)


Weather´s just fine for surfin´along today
so will you pack your things once again, my dear
my little darlin´we´ll have to go
for we don´t know for how long it will show
but if we leave now, we´ll be back by five , I swear
surfin´away

Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get
to the surf and the waves that is somethin´I´ll never forget

We´ve been doin´this thing so many times before
glidin´like magic over the ocean´s floor
love the moment to be towed out to sea
and to ride the waves don´t you see
an addiction, leavin´ you always wantin´more
and to adore !

Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get
to the surf and the waves that is somethin´I´ll never forget
or a solo

Hurry, darlin´ vamonos now ! ´cause it´s gettin´late !
weather´s fine and the surf seems to me there to rise so great
let´s go fast, thats the right thing to do
I need you darlin´,we´ll have to be two
You know this is what we both could be callin´”surfer´s fate”
surfer´s fate
surfer´s fate

Cheers
Dani

That's what I was missing Dani. One of your cool surfing tunes. Super listen on a Friday night. Super vocal and harmonies. Excellent backtrack. Mix was excellent

This mix sounds good to me. (I didn't hear the other one either). Is that you with the bass line "ooo mau maus"? Nice. The whole composition was an enjoyable listen. Was the line "Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get" a deliberate double entendre? Ha!

Hi, Floyd !:))

Thank you so much for
your most kind comments
really much appreciated !:))

I thought that the earlier mix
did not do the tune justice,
so I just had to remix it
altogether !

I don't remember this one either, but I REALLY like it!! Wonderful vocals! Love the harmonies and the MOW MOW! How many octaves of range do you have? Very cool song, so well delivered. Take care. Greg

Hi Dani,

I really enjoyed that one. I like the fact that it definitely has that surf feel, but you doesn't try to sound like the Beach Boys, but have a very own style. And it's a tune with a very lovely melody.

Very< good.
