When You Say You Love Me
This song is about friends in love. A guy wants to go to the next level of their friendship but afraid that
everything will change.

Lyrics:
When I'm sad and alone,
You are always there to cheer me up.
And you're taking me to the heavens.
When you say you love me.

You always check on me.
And call me while I'm far away.
And you're taking me to the heavens.
When you say you love me.

We've been friends for a long time.
I can't recall how long it's been.
But really deep inside
I wish we could be more than friends.

But I'm concerned that everything will change.
If I say I wanna be more than just a friend,
I'm okay as is; it doesn't bother me at all.
Coz all I wanna do is be there for you.

When you need me the most,
When you’re down and need someone to hold
Yes, I’ll be there to hear you say you love me.

We've been friends for a long time.
I can't recall how long it's been.
But really deep inside
I wish we could be more than friends.

But I'm concerned that everything will change.
If I say I wanna be more than just a friend,
I'm ok as is; it doesn't bother me at all.
Coz all I wanna do is be there for you.

When you need me the most,
When you’re down and need someone to hold
Yes I’ll be there to hear you say you love me.


I’ll be there to hear you say you love me.

You're taking me to the heavens.
When you say you love me.

The majority of the tracks were written and played by me and some tracks were from BIAB. The piano solos were generated by BIAB

Cool theme, and what a wonderful vocal. So well done, Noel. Catchy groove, and a fun song with fun changes in the progression. Good mis, too, everything so well in place to support the song.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Nice and bouncy! You selected really good BIAB elements and knifed them together nicely. I especially liked the ending. The only suggestion I would make is that the bridge, starting with “But I’m concerned” seems crowded with melody notes and words…that’s a contrast with how smooth-flowing the mainline is…seemed kind of choppy. I’d recommend seeing if you could pare down each line by a syllable or two to get it to breeze smoothly through that section. Glad I decided to listen!

Great backing band
Super mix

I always enjoy a great jazz tune. This one certainly qualifies.

You've brought together a nice band with the BIAB tracks. A strong and bold arrangement that's not overbearing - you found the perfect place for that balance.

The piano lead was terrific. And your vocal fits the style and lyric.

i enjoyed this very much. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

Happy new Year,

Alan
