Another nice lyric supplied by Cindy Prince.

Lyrics:
I should have known when I looked at the pictures
I should have known when I saw your face
I should have known my heart would start achin'
And I'd be taken back to that place

I should have never got down that old photo album
I should have never opened it to see
I should have never let those tears begin fallin'
Cause I know what it does to me

Chorus
I fall back to another time
I can hear that same melody
I fall back to another time
I let the memories take over

Back Inside a memory


I should have realized how much it still hurts
I should have realized.the pain is still deep
I should have realized it overtakes me
Its a love that will never sleep

Repeat chorus

The tracks: I use the style as it was: Just a little editing on the fiddle and a few holds on the Mandolin but otherwise left well alone.

Style is _MFIDPOP.STY (Medium Fiddle-Mandolin Pop)

Cindy did an excellent job with the lyrics, and your arrangement (and singing) fits perfectly.

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

Hi Joanne,

You made a beautiful song! Cindy made very nice lyrics, but your performance bring them to life.
And that mandoline fits in very nice.
I listened thoroughly if I could hear something to advise you in, give instruction for or tips on, or just to complain about, but could not find anything. That's a joke, because I knew I would only enjoy this recent work of you and Cindy.

Nice work - I love how sincere and gentle it sounds. Really captivating, and the harmonies are phenomenal. Plus, Cindy really did do a great job with the lyrics. They really add to the music, in my opinion.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Joanne,

This is beautiful.

You've taken Cindy's words and really made them shine. Everything about this -- writing, presenting, arranging, mixing, producing -- really appeals to me greatly. You've done a terrific job. Your vocals a superb -- crystal clear and polished with a professional sounding clarity. Your harmonies are excellent. I love the band.

I hope this song goes somewhere for you both. It really deserves to.

In a nutshell, very, very enjoyable!

All the best,
Noel

Pretty and aching in a good way, RTs were matched perfectly to your voices IMO.
