I believe we've all had a friend who it was exciting to be around but it ALWAYS felt as though you were just one tiny step away from disaster. That was my great friend Mozart - Daisy Skye Wright, aka Jo Tchaikovski, aka 'Mozart' - died 30th August 2021.
"Always one step from some disaster," is accurate but we were always a step close to laughter too.

Mozart Medley

Video here: Video, Mozart Medley

LYRICS
Not every wild child craves drink and drugs
Some wild children all they want is love and hugs
Devilish Snow Angel put me in her spell
I wish that I could protect my friend Mozart from herself
Swear down Mozart
Mozart swear down

You covered my back, I couldn’t cover yours
I wish that I had been there for you when they shut them doors
Swear down Mozart
Mozart swear down
Swear down Mozart

Always one step from some disaster
If this is your happy ever after
You’ve a funny way of showing it
Your usual funny way of showing it
Rest yourself, oh yeah, you can now rest yourself

I’ve missed your swearing and your laughter
Snow ball days & the nights after
I’ve a funny way of showing it
I’ve got a funny way of showing it
Rest yourself, oh yeah, you can now rest yourself

I won’t let anything hurt you
Sometime soon your smile will shine through
You’ve a funny way of showing it
your usual funny way of showing it
Rest yourself, now you can just rest yourself

See, the grass is full of stars
Fallen in their brightness
Hearts they have of shining gold
Rays of shining whiteness

Buttercups have honeyed hearts
Bees they love the clover
But I love the daisies' dance
All the meadow over

Blow, Oh blow, you happy winds
Singing summer's praises
Up the field and down the field
A dancing with the daisies

A wonderful tribute to your friend, judging by the photos she died way too young :-(

I love your minimalist approach!

It sounds like two different songs put together.
Both of them I liked.

I really like what you did in the first part with the guitar and then the mood changes to the piano, very innovative.

One small suggestion your harmonize vocals on every word makes it a little difficult to hear the lyrics clearly. You may wish to use the harmonies on certain words and phrases or in the choruses to emphasize. You have an excellent voice You don't have use so many effects.

Thanks for the suggestions, I really appreciate it and the kind comments. I am really self-conscious about my singing, so try and enhance it as much as possible. I'll use less effects from here on!

I am also really self-conscious about my singing so I use way to many effects also, or at least that is what I have been told wink Actually they are right! I would suggest that you cut back on your vocal effects as you do have a very good voice.

This is a very good song and tribute to your friend.
Great mix and backing tracks.

My first thoughts on the song was what a cool production and instrumentation placement. Very well done. Super vocal and lyric. Piano and backtrack were perfect for the song. Really well done piece of music..

It sounded interesting.
Yes, the vox are over treated by I can empathise with you on the need to do so.
How about, just for a laugh, you listen and comment on the posts/songs by others on the forum?


Cheers

Good vocal performance.

Instrumentation is well done and placed in the mix where each can be distinctly heard.

Nice tribute to your late friend.

Oh, yeah, I've had friend like that. They really add a wonderful ingredient to living. Love those lyrics, Killer. She rubbed off on you in good ways. Excellent vocals. There are many sibilance sounds, but they do not detract from how good it sounds. This is a terrific tribute to those crazy folks that add thrills to our lives. I like what Elliott says about 2 songs. Yes, they are both wonderful.

My Mozart was named Cricket.


Enjoy whatever happens!
