IT'S NOTHING SPECIAL (song)

Just added a few words to my recent instrumental of the same name.

BIAB STYLE: TEAK.STY (Teak Woodblock Slow Bossa)

OTHER INSTRUMENTS:

REASON 11 sound samples (played on Korg K61p midi):
Grand Piano, Symphonic Strings, Violins Pizz.
I took out the single-note 'Marimbuth' from the instrumental version and replaced it with multi-note 'Vibes-On-Stage.' I also wrote a midi file in GuitarPro 5 to tidy up the timing on the Violins.

Vocals: Shure PG57 mic, Focusrite Scarlett @i2 interface, Reaper Daw, NoiseAsh Vocal Finalizer.

Mixed with Audacity

In response to those who thought the vocals required a bit of extra reverb, the edited version can be found here:
It's Nothing Special (updated)
LYRICS:

It’s Nothing Special

It's nothing special, just a simple song
About someone who's special to me
Some random thoughts and just a worn-out tune
Perhaps you'll agree
Don't need stainless-steel perfection
Just her love and warm affection
Can't believe that I have actually found
the perfect woman for me

It might not be quite original
And, if that’s true, feel free to sue me!
I'm just expressing how she makes me feel
And all that it means
I confess I'm mad about her
Sure I couldn't live without her
She woke me from the deepest sleep
And now I'm living the dream

INSTRUMENTAL

It's nothing special, just a simple song
About someone who's special to me
I'm just expressing how she makes me feel
And all that it means
I confess I'm mad about her
Sure I couldn't live without her
She woke me from the deepest sleep
And now I'm living the dream
She woke me from the deepest sleep
And now I'm living the dream
