So here is a new track before I take off for Ocracoke. I may have a signal there and maybe not.

I will *try* to stay in touch. smile

This is the last song for my next album, Whiskey Town, I think. It will be an alt-country album, which I will probably lead with Heartless. This will go in there somewhere.


Make Me Love Again


By David Snyder

https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs3/make-me-love-again


V1

Looking for a reason looking for a way
looking for an antidote to yesterday
looking for a person who can see beneath my skin
looking for any place on earth that would take me in
looking for a person who won't judge me
for a few mistakes I've made along the way

CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know that I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again
and make me love again

V2

Fighting for some answers, and you know I'm not afraid
I'd like to throw it in reverse , don't like this world we've made
So I'm looking for a person with some goodness in their eyes
looking for any place on earth that sells truth instead of lies

CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again

BR

Oh I'm tired of falling down
from the sorrow in my soul, every time I look around

CH

So I'm looking for anyone anywhere anytime
just looking for someone who I can call a friend
any smile, any touch, you know I don't ask for much
just anything that could make me feel like me
and make me love again

Zowie, Dude! You are on a ROLL!

This is a killer song. An excellent write.

Stunning.

Good production. A signature David Snyder vocal (that's a good thing).
Good mix.

A hell of a listen.

Loved it.

That which has been already said. This is superb. Echoes of Springsteen, this time, but this is undoubtedly Snyder. You are an extraordinary and sincere as well as a genuine musician. I always look forward to hearing your songs, as you post them on here, and a big part of the reason for that is your rawness and sincerity, which communicates itself irresistibly to the listener. In short: hats off. BRAVO.

Yes David you are on a roll with each song better than the last song.

Outstanding backing band and backing choir!

Super vocal and lyrics.

A great mix!

Loved it.

Love the song and the arrangement, and the lyrics are very good!

My only nit are the vocals in the chorus, the backing track and the choir are almost overpowering it. I'd up your vox a dB or three there.

I can see the improvement in your writing and singing with each new song you let us hear. Nicely done.

I really like this.

That was powerful, song and performance really carry some weight. At about 2:06, the choir starts to sound a bit loud to me. Not a big thing. Really enjoyed this, especially that vocal.

Anywhere anytime there's a new David Snyder song, there's guaranteed to be pure gold. Great song, strong message easy to relate to. Catchy as a good rock song should be, and so fresh that Gallagher brothers would envy. Super sounding powerful band and I really like the vocal production.

"Fighting for some answers, and you know I'm not afraid

Awesome vocal & production as well. This is a song to listen to over and over again.

Funny. I played this song a couple time, and came back to see what I had to say about it because I wanted to say more, and realize I never said anything. Not like me, huh? What a wonderful song, David. So well crafted and produced. I really really like the build of desperation, Brilliant stuff, man. These lyrics are so good, and so relatable to so many. Great use of BiaB. I didn't see credits for the ooze and oz, unless that was you. Nah. "Anywhere anytime there's a new David Snyder song, there's guaranteed to be pure gold." --Jannesan. I second that. I truly enjoy driving with your songs, David, and for this one I want to drive all the way to Northern California to become your friend.


Enjoy whatever happens!

David, this is an excellent write! Man, you really have a good one here. As many have already said, it's very relatable and so captivating. Not just what you've said, but the way you've said it. This has got to be one of the best of any of your writing I've heard - and that's saying something. I thought the production was fantastic. It all fits together like a hand in a glove. Great job, what a way to conclude an album!

Great lyrics, David, especially that first verse. Very good as is, but I can also imagine it working well with a slightly more restrained vocal (your alt country voice smile ).
