Scars Of The Heart

I'm getting ready to release a new album of original music on December 1st. All of the instrumentals on it are mostly done with BIAB Real Tracks and this is the Title track for the album.

Real Tracks:
366, 380, 381,434,377
Real Drums: Rock Even 8

Mixing and editing done in Cubase Elements 9

Lyrics:

Every now and Then you find that special on.
The one you want to cling to and love with all your heart.
And when you find that someone you wear your heart out on your sleeve.
Leaving you defenseless in loves rough and raging sea.

Now I have had some lovers who love me like you do.
But lately I've a feeling that you're gonna be untrue.
And I don't want you cheatin' cause it would break my heart in two.
Leaving me with scars inside that are black and grey and blue.

And I'll have scars on my heart tearing me apart.
And the warmth of love will fade to the chill of another day
And all I'll have to show are these scars on my heart.

Now if you're planning on leaving why don't you pack your things and split.
Cause I don't want your cheatin' and it'll take a while to forget.
But I won't grow too lonely even though I'll fall apart.
Cause I'll share all of my sorrow with these scars inside of my heart.

And I'll have scars on my heart tearing me apart.
And the warmth of love will fade to the chill of another day
And all I'll have to show are these scars on my heart.

Hi Samuel Davis,
I love this, the vocals are great, great instrumental parts too!

Great feel, cool song!

such a good flow to the phrasing keeps this driving on

enjoyed the listen, liked the ending!

best of luck with the album,

Kenny

What another fantastic country song from you! You really have a knack for modern country. I'm curious to hear what else will be on your album!

Great share, and good luck!

Hi Samuel. Always look forward to your songs.
This is another great powerful contribution.
Well done again.
Rob

Thank you. I will post a link to the album when it comes out on Dec. 1st.

Thanks for listening kenny. I like the way the ending came out on this as well. BIAB has really given me the ability to make some great sounding music from the songs I have written. This song especially has come a very long way from its original form. What a blessing to have this program and the great community here on the forums to share our creations.

Hi Samuel,

You're among the very best country folks on the forum. It's always a pleasure to hear your songs. As always, a super listen and great track. Wishing you the best and lots of success with the album.

Alan

Not a huge fan of mordern country, but I like this one Sam, has a good traditional feel to it

Cool tune Samuel. Awesome driving country tune. Reminds me of one of my favorites Travis Tritt

Thanks Scott. I love me some Travis Tritt. He is definitely one of my bigger influences.

Yes! Travis Tritt. It has his vocal feel along with the lyric and arrangement.

Like that power vocal ending!

Best to you with the release...

J&B

Sammy,

Cool title. A classic country theme, a classic Country sound. Thought I heard a little Marshall Tucker Band in there

Well done. Nice vocal. Good mix.

Glad you found BIAB (and this forum!).

Awesome man!

Can't wait to hear the album!

This reminds me a little bit of Charlie Daniels mixed with Gregg Allman. And that's not bad!!

Hi, Samuel !

This is truly a very nice
country tune ! You´ve got
what I imagine is the right
voice n´feel for this genré !

Enjoyed the listening really
much !:))

Cheers
Dani

As we can see from the comments, your outlaw influences are all over the write, performance and production. This has a great vibe. Really enjoyed this and looking forward to the release of your album. You did a great job on this one.

Charlie

What a tune! Fantastic work on this Samuel - this is exactly the kind of country I gravitate towards. It's got attitude, it's got a catchy melody you can sing along to, and it's got an incredible groove you can tap your foot to. Hearing this makes me excited to hear the album! You nailed this one, I can't only imagine the rest of the album will follow suit.

Great work, and thanks so much for sharing

I agree with Kenny! Very cool!! Very passionate, and I love the fiddle. Great stuff! Take care. Greg

Mmmm. Like it Samuel.
I'm a big fan of the old Charlie Daniels style
and this reminds me of it.
Great lyrics too.
Cheers.

Thanks Charlie. If you like this the album is full of outlaw style country tunes. It will be available on all major online music sites but I'll post a link here in the forums as well.

Hi Samuel Davis, What a great song! Excellent mixdown, all the elements sound in their place. I look forward to hearing the full album on December 1st! Keep up the great work

Samuel, I will state right up front that you have a great country voice!! This song really seems like it's a perfect match for that voice! Your composition is marvelous and the instrumentation choices are excellent! The song is very good and I wish the best of luck with it and the album! Thanks, Torrey
