Hi, ol´ and newer friends !

Finally up from Spain for a
couple of Barbershop Quartet
gigs and for a hopefully quiet
and nice Christmas !

I chose to work on a slow country
boogie and this was the way it took !

Hope all is allright with you friends
in spite of all the crazy going on in
the world today ?

What Do You Say ( Music and words by Norman Wibe)

I must confess, I love you so
more than I am able to convey
to you my babe , hey !

Everytime I´m close to you
I am goin´weak, and I´ll start to sway
and I´m feelin dizzy too, but I´m okay

I´m just lovin´
all and everythin´about you
all about you

There´s no night, a single day
passin´ without me here thinkin´of you
and the lovely things you do

Have I deserved to be the one
the only one for you, my darlin´true ?
you´ll bring the sun, right out of the blue

solo

I just hope we´ll be able to walk
hand in hand forever down the line
it would be just so fine

and I could love you all of the way
goin´on together, come what may
what do you say, my darlin, what do you say

Come on my darlin´what do you say ?

Nice vibe Mr Wibe.
Your lower register is clear and the vibrato is more controlled.
Well done.


Cheers

Dani.
It can't be easy writing lyrics that aren't in your native tongue
as there is always a tendency to cliche.
I remember learning a song in Spanish once, but I didn't really understand what I was singing.
I wondered what Spanish people thought.

The music in this has a pleasant style to go with your vocal but could do with some variation.
Keep at it.

Nice sunny song about the basics of ageless romantic love smile
Pleasant arrangement, nice piano. I really enjoyed the smooth Beach Boys mood with beautiful chords and warm vocals.

Hi, Vic !

....and thank you for your
sincere comments ! As an answer to
your comment I do admit that
it ain´t easy to avoid ending
up with cliches especially
when you have written over 100 songs and most
of them love songs in
a foreign language too !

I do thank you for your kind comments
I really do !

Cheers
Dani

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

This tender love song has a pleasing, smooth country groove with the band and your vocals.

The modulations were most enjoyable too.

Your voice has very good resonance, Dani, and those low notes have such a full rich sound.

Well done!
