Hi, friends !

Winter came at last
also to us up here in the North !
Had me write this little tune
as the snowflakes fell !

Here are the links:

...and here are the lyrics:

Winter Came At Last ( Words and Music by Norman Wibe)

Snowflakes, snowflakes, whirlin´all around me
paintin´everythin´in white
chills my sole
but warms my soul
I´ve been waitin´for your light

Snowflakes, snowflakes, driftin´everywhere
showin´off their awesome might
from here to pole
you make us whole
fill our hearts with endless joy,
just enjoy,
it feels so right

Darlin´ let´s go for a ride
Here, come by my side
we´ll fly, into the snow
so let me guide you
let´s make our ride to
a magic place that only
we know about !

Snowflakes, snowflakes, how I longed for you
all my prayers are fulfilled !
so let it stay
from now till May
and let us ski so far away

Darlin´ let´s go for a ride
Here, come by my side
we´ll fly, into the snow
so let me guide you
let´s make our ride to
a magic place that only
we know about !

Recorded with Mixcraft 8 pro, Rev and Comp used

Dani, this sounds great. The backing tracks are spot on. I liked the chord progression also. The vocal is excellent.

fill our hearts with endless joy,
just enjoy,
Not when I'm shoveling the darn stuff grin

PS - No snow here yet. That is extremely unusual. If this keeps up my show blower will last for years wink

Cool tune Dani. No pun intended. We have been having a very mild winter. We were suppose to be in the -20 C range but has been hovering at 0 C. Still lots of winter left. Happy New Year

I really dig your lower voice - solid and expressive.
Well done.
I thought you might like this hit in Oz in 1965

I really liked this - loved your vocals on it, makes for a fun listen smile Nicely mixed too, and the instrumentation works perfectly with your lower register voice.

Thanks for sharing!

Vocals are so cool on this, Dani. "chills my sole, but warms my soul" We got 15 inches here just before Christmas. Maybe I could get a good deal on Mario's snow blower.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi, Mario !

Thank you so very much for
your most kind words really
much appreciated !

Snow, well, where I lived
before we had such amounts
of snow during winter that
I also found it hard to cope
with but nowadays the winters
up here are so warm that we hardly
get any snow at all, at least down
here in the Southern parts of
Finland !

Cheers

Where we are on the island we don't really get snow. We had one very light snow fall that washed away in a couple hours and that was it! But back when I was in Ontario things got pretty blanketed. Thanks for the nostalgia and for sharing the song!

Hi Dani ...

Another piece of wonderful music from you. I agree with others that your deeper vocal register is a real treat. Where I currently live, Alabama, snow hardly ever happens. But where I grew up (Missouri) snow is sure to fall at least a few times each year.

Although about the coldest part of the year, your song sent a warm feeling throughout my body.

Di and I hope 20212 is a wonderful year for you and yours.

I'm more a spring person, but your warm voice and summery instrumentation make me feel comfortable in the middle of these cold days and snowy roads. The chord progression has enjoyable classic Christmas time mood.
