When I started this song, the lyrics: "I sing for you" were imposed on me without really thinking about it. It's a tribute without pretending to be on their level to songs that try to take into account the misery of others. With for me 2 French references: “la prayer” by Georges Brassens and more recently “those who have nothing” by Patricia Kaas.
Mixing and additional tracks in Cubase, Images generated by Copilot (Thanks Marty). Main voice Solaria, Secondary voice Natalie.
Good listening and if you want to cry me a river: sing a song.

OK, a random thought;
Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

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

Lauent, lovely tune! Great job taming those guitar solos. Also liked the way the electric piano you used filled out the mix, almost like a pad. Nice job!

Extraordinary, Laurent. Love your ability with those synths and how strong they sing this wonderful song you've written. Really good mix, and I love that solo. Excellent choices of instruments. Man, those images you've talked CoPilot into creating are really amazing. Actually it was Dave Bell who first mentioned that program to me. Sure sometimes it gives people 3 arms and all kinds of weird stuff, but I really enjoy the other-worldly look it gives. I keep asking myself while watching, "What kind of prompt did he come up with that had the AI cerated THAT?"

Also, I've been experiencing the same thing as you with it no longer giving me the ability to make the images landscape orientation. Your results make me realize that is not even a problem.


Enjoy whatever happens!

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

The lyric sentiment is beautiful and the guitar truly shines on this.

Natalie and Solaria bring tenderness and passion to it and the images in the video are well suited.
We especially liked the opening earth scene accompanied by guitar.

Lovely!
