This is a song I wrote for my daughter 22 years ago when she was 10 years old. I created the video with Filmora 9.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzyryEnrlQE

Daddy's Girl

From the moment that I saw her,
I know that God had sent an angel my way,
she's daddy's girl.
They say she looks a lot like me,
I know this is how god meant it to be,
I praise him for, a daddy's girl.

When I see her on her knees in prayer,
praying to the Lord up in the air,
I'm proud to say, she's daddy's girl,
she writes with her left, and her eyes are blue,
but you know what, mine are too,
I praise my God, for a daddy's girl.

Chorus:
I remember she'd say, daddy pray,
I could always kiss the hurt away,
I've found her love for God is true.
And I know that every time she sings,
her voice up in heaven rings,
I thank my God for a daddy's girl.

I remember she'd say, daddy pray,
I could always kiss the hurt away,
I've found her love for God is true.
And I know that every time she sings,
her voice up in heaven rings,
I thank my God for a daddy's girl.

Nice job on this Ronnie! It's great to see you performing the song! I couldn't tell if the backing was BIAB or not. I'm guessing yes though. Thanks, Torrey

Ms. Fields...

Pure sweetness and divine gratitude radiates from this song, lyrically, and musically, too. And it's always nice to watch a User's Forum member performing on their BIAB productions, as I am not a instrumentalist and I appreciate the years of practice and study that goes into learning how to play. I can imagine the loving smile that must break out on your daughter's face when she listens to/watches this video!

It's always good to be able to put a face to the name.

I remember writing one similar and wow... the tears that went into that song.
I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about.

Nice song. I know she likes it too.

Hi, Ronnie.

Nice re-do! I remember you posted a version of this before.

It's high praise when I actually remember a song! wink

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

It's nice to see you in action.
A super re-post.
