Words & music by Jonathan Paaso

(My english is not perfect , sorry bout that..)

When the clouds were
coming in to my lfe
i was feeling confident
But the sky was black
as a moonless night
and i was blind for a
while.
I saw only those black
clouds and Lord, i did'nt see you there
just looking at the coal black sky and i lost my confident

Lord have mercy, mercy for i have sinned against you, have mercy Lord have mercy for i'm broken and i cry.

Jona

It all sounds good to me - vocals, instruments and the mix.

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

Everything about this is top shelf. Great instrumentation. Super vocal and lyrics. Great mix also.

Hi Jona,

Wow!!!! This is incredibly good.

It's so hard to believe that English is not your first language. Every word sits beautifully on the melody.

You've done a brilliant job.

Regards,
Noel
