Hi, friends !:))

I was working on one of my
old tunes(from 1992)but I just
could not get it right so I decided
to start from scratch on a new Bossa instead !
As you can hear I´ve been dreamin´again:

DREAMIN´AGAIN (by Dani)

Walkin´alone, down a street
of this snowclad town, no one to meet
as I push my way thru the drifted snow
can´t feel the cold, though it´s warmer inside, I know
I´m homeward bound, coming home to you, that is when
I realize I´ve been dreamin ´this way again

Talkin´ alone, me and myself
taking your pic down from the shelf
got the picture of you in my hand and my mind
thinkin´ ´bout what we had and what was left behind
I´m homeward bound, coming home to you, that is when
I realize I´ve been dreamin ´this way again

Solo

Sleepin´alone, no one beside me
´cause you are gone, longing for thee
makes me dream all over and over in vain
but my mind just keeps puttin´it on sustain
I´m homeward bound, coming home to you that is when
I realize I´ve been dreamin ´this way again

Walkin´alone, down a street
of this snowclad town, no one to meet
as I push my way thru the drifted snow
can´t feel the cold, though it´s warmer inside, I know
I´m homeward bound, coming home to you, that is when
I realize I´ve been dreamin ´this way again

Dani,

Smooth. A good write. And a good mix. Terrific vocal! Cool chord changes. I like that... "This isn't working... I'll just write a new one!"

Hi, Floyd !:))


Thank you very much for your kind words !:))
.....chuckle....it was not really that easy (lol) !:))

Dani

you have such a wonderful asynchronous melodic sense, this song especially, as it is jazz, has a Bert Bacharach vibe.

super write!

much enjoyed!

Hi, Lawrence !:))


Now, you are just all too kind with
this old fella !:)) but I am humbled by
your words and am very glad you liked
the tune ! Bacharach has been my absolute
favourite all of my life not to forget
Brian Wilson either !:))I must admit
I just love those maj chords !:))


Cheers
Dani

Cooool ... very smooth jazz. Interesting vocal harmonies.

Great vocal and lyrics! Mix sounds great, thanks for sharing!

Hi Dani,

and again I like your chord progression and harmonies.
Very nice song!

Guenter

Dani

A really nice feel happening there. And I liked the vocal harmonies. Perfect tempo. Nice job. Sax intro and solo fitted in real well.

Alyn

Hi, Alyn !:))

Thank you so much for your
most kind words. Really warming
me inside !:))

Cheers
Dani

Love the smooth jazz and the harmonies are wonderful Dani. I must admit that "thee" in there kind of threw me otherwise I really liked the conversational lyrics too.

Always enjoy your beautiful arrangements and lovely voice.


Josie

Josie, you know you are
all too nice, but I do
appreciate your kind
comments really very much !:))


Cheers
Dani

Great groove! Love the retro feel!! Little like Burt Bacharach! Feels good. Take care. Greg

Great Koogamooga!!

Dani, beautiful. Always the hippest changes, the beautiful-est harmonies and now we're getting the beautiful mixes as well. Now what we need to hear is Dani the guitar player! I'm waiting for that first solo, bud.

Dean

Hi, Greg !


Thank you for your most kind words !
I´ve always loved Burt´s music !!!:))
I used to dig the Johnny Mann Singers
and the Singers Unlimited also !:))

Cheers
Dani

Koogamooga !!!:))

Hi, buddy !:))

Thank you for your kind comments !
I am working on a jazzy tune, but
I am not that good a guitarrist.
I had hoped I could ask the great
master to play the solo ?:))


Cheers
Dani

Dani, again your chord changes blow me away. Great stuff. I believe this is the best vocal you've posted. Your mixes are getting better every time. Great job! Tom

Hi, Tommy !:))


You are just too kind my friend
but I do appreciate your kind words
truly much !:))


Cheers
Dani

Beautiful. Tasteful production. Love the sax.

Dani, we are late to the party on this one. Been off the grid for a couple of days in an ice storm. So there's not a lot left to add other than we really admire the creativity in the changes and the harmonies. Throw all that into a good mix and you have an excellent song!

Hi, Rich !:))


You are just too kind, my friend
but I do appreciate your views
very much !:))

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Janice and Bud !

No problem, there are
no time limits (lol) !
I am very glad you liked
this little tune !

I think i could have done
a better job on the vocals but
I got too lazy (chuckle) !:))

Cheers
Dani

Very nice Dani. Really enjoyed this song. Well played and well sung

Thank you so much, Scott,
for your most kind comments !:))

Cheers
Dani

Hey Dani,

Very tasteful music! To my ears, the sound was smooth, elegant and restful. I congratulate you on a very solid write and a great production.

All the best,
Noel

Hi, Noel !:))


I thank you for your most kind
words and congratulations !:))

Cheers
Dani

Another fine tune here, Burt, I mean Dani!

Thanks for sharing,

Steve

The vocals are so smooth. Tight harmonies. Really bending those notes, putting some tension in those chords. You nailed the mix too.

Dear friend !:))

Thank you so much for your kind
comments !

Comparing me to Burt
is really nice of you and
I take it as the wellintended
joke it certainly was !:)) (chuckle)

You see, Steve, Burt is in a
completely another league (chuckle) !!
and I know that you know that too !:))

I really do admire him for his
groundbraking music !
His music has made a great
impact on me, and still does !:))

Cheers
Dani

Hi, friend !:))

I am glad you liked the tune
and the performance !:))

Cheers
Dani
