I'M A RICH MAN, I AM
I CAN BUY ANYTHING I WANT TO, AND I DO
CARS AND YACHTS AND PLANES......ANYTHING AT ALL
I TRAVEL 'ROUND THE WORLD TO DO THE THINGS I DO

AND SOCIAL EVENTS, I ALWAYS GO
I'M IMPORTANT, ...SO PEOPLE WANT ME THERE
I ALWAYS MAKE AN ENTRANCE WITH A WOMAN ON MY ARM
AND SHE'S BEAUTIFUL, SO ALL THE PEOPLE STARE

YOU'D THINK I HAVE IT ALL, AND I BET YOU DO
AND JUST MAYBE YOU WANNA BE LIKE ME
BUT EVEN GUYS IN MY POSITION CAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING THEY WANT
WHAT I WANT MOST IN LIFE, TURNS OUT IS FREE

I CAN'T BUY LOVE CAUSE LOVE IS NOT FOR SALE
IT'S A FEELING THAT COMES STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART
AND IT'S FRAGILE, YOU CAN'T TAKE LOVE FOR GRANTED
IF YOU DO, IT CAN SURELY FALL APART

NO, YOU CAN'T BUY LOVE, IT'S SOMETHING SOMEONE GIVES YOU
BUT THEY CAN TAKE IT BACK, IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME
NO YOU CAN'T BUY LOVE, BUT MAYBE YOU CAN FIND IT
AND IF YOU DO, DON'T LET IT PASS YOU BY

SO YOU LOOK AT ME AND THINK I'VE GOT IT ALL
AND YOU'RE THINKING HOW NICE MY LIFE MUST BE
BUT THE THING THAT I WANT MOST I CAN'T BUY
IT'S LOVE, THE THING YOU GET FOR FREE

Sol Varon,
you've posted a dozen songs in about eleven days.
Slow down so folks can a) catch up to listen to your stuff & b) not have their own stuff pushed off page one.
Re this song you need to reduce the vocal reverb, (it's creating an auditory halo effect), do a little editing on levels as you clearly leaned back or turned away once or twice and that change in level came through.


Cheers

Thanks for your input. It never crossed my mind that I'd be pushing other people off. I guess I was carried away by people actually listening to my songs.
