Hi Robert,

"Trust Me" is a beautiful song - nice use of lyrics. For me, though, your "Giggles and Sunshine" song is best. Love the whimsical style and lyrics on that one. Not to take anything away from "Trust Me" - it is terrific...

Oh well, what the heck - they're BOTH great!

This song has no A sections; the verses are 2 B's 1 after each 8 measures and the Chorus is a B after each 4 measures. The ending is also a B section. Here is the link, it is song 22 of the 50/90 challenge.

This is song 25 of the 50/90 challenge. I used the Genesis Account of creation and put it to my own personal life. Here is the link, all comments welcome, thanks and God bless!


25. That Day


That Day
©2012

My life before Jesus was like the void before creation
only darkness there was no light to be found
but then a knock so gentle and when i let the Savior enter
the Light shown through he turned my life around
He smoothed a heart so callous it was a major restoration
to turn a heart so solid into clay
that is why I praise Him because of His salvation
and the love that He poured out on me that day

That day He breathed in me new life
That day He spoke and there was light
The evening and the morning I will shout in endless praise
for what He did when He came in to my heart that day

I know how He salvaged me when I was drowning
in my sin filled with shades of gray
pulled down by the current He filled me with His Spirit
I thank Him for the miracle that day

Repeat Chorus x2

This song was inspired by a Cancun key holder on my wall. I have seen it countless times; yet yesterday when I saw it, I thought does it come in a bottle, lol. I then got the idea to use city names to try and create a song. One of the 50/90 Challenges was called nouns. It is 25, it is comedy. It has a bluegrass feel. Comments welcomed.

This song incorporates the 5 senses in love found, and then in love lost. The 1st vs and chorus are all Major chords for the love found, the 2nd verse and chorus uses only a piano and minor chords to portray the sadness. This is song 26 of the 50/90 Songwriters Challenge. All comments are welcome. Thanks in advance.

26. Senses

Senses
©2012 Robert Taylor


Girl I saw your beauty it was like the sunshine
you spoke my name I heard a symphony
just a taste of your lovin and the smell of your perfume
I felt all of the senses when you touched me

girl I saw the colors of the rainbow
I heard lifes song in high fidelity
tasted all the joy life had to offer
life smelled sweet like roses wet with dew
when you touched me

girl the day you left me I was speechless
you said goodbye life lost it's harmony
I got the taste of heartbreak the smell of endless doom
I went numb when you left me

girl I lost my senses I was blinded by the pain
deafened by the sound of your goodbye
life lost all its flavor the moment that you left me
the sweet auroma in my life was gone
I was numb the when you left me
I was numb the when you left me

Bob,

Very touching music, with happy/sad story told by your vocals.

The ending with sadness infused was a real stroke, finished
of the story nicely.

Thanks for sharing!

I wrote the lyrics to this and then went through BIAB until I came across Crossover Pop style. I used the the original with a slight modification. It seemed like the perfect style for the lyrics.

Instruments are Bass #784
Acoustic Guitar #785
RDrums Nashville Crossover
Electric Rhythm 786
Electric Rhythm 787

27. That's Enough About Me

Enough About Me
©2012 Robert Taylor

I could tell you of a man so full of anger
empty inside and still so full of shame
it was always someone elses fault his failures
he never would admit he was to blame

(Chorus)
That's Enough about me, I want to talk about Jesus
the Son of God sent down here to free us
by His grace the lost are found
He put a new heart in a dead man breathin'
but enough about me I want to talk about Jesus


I would blow my stack and act so foolish
I always hurt the ones I loved the most
I was thinking that I was the captain
all puffed up sinking as I'd boast

Repeat Chorus

(Bridge)
Talk of His forgiveness
about His endless love
the Carpenter from Galilee the Shepherd of the flock
the way He was yesterday, and forever He is today
do you hear Him knock open to the Rock
I stand on the Rock

Repeat Chorus

That's enough about me I want to talk about Jesus
are you in His flock

Let's talk about Jesus
Let's talk about Jesus

Robert, your song writing and mixing skills are second to none! You always seem to find the right lead lines and backing tracks for all of your lyrics.

As always-another super job on Senses and Enough About Me.

Two thumbs up on both songs.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

This is probably my world record for writing lyrics, I sat down at 9:20pm and lyrics were complete at 9:51 Pm. I made the mistake of adding a stereo effect to this song, so in a few places it sounds a little warbled. You should be able to get the jest of it. I will fix it after the 50/90 challenge. I saw this title on Hamigos thread (thanks for the inspiration) with the same title. Check out that song it is excellent! immediately the idea for this song and the words began to flow. I listened to Hamigos version and they are completely different songs.

28. Let Me Go

Let Me Go
©2012 Robert Taylor

You don't walk these hallways anymore
you will never walk back through the door
I will never kiss your lips again
memories are all that still remain
you don't dent your pillow anymore
I never see your shoes left on the floor
why it still hurts I just don't know
but I'm begging you let me go

Let me go
so I can live again
Let me go
take away this pain
I don't understand it
how I'm still caught in your hold
but tell your memory please
let me go

you don't call my name out anymore
you will never send me to the store
my heart is filled with so much woe
I'm begging you let me go

Let me go
so I can live again
Let me go
take away this pain
I don't understand it
how I'm still caught in your hold
but tell your memory please
let me go

just like you never left me
every day is the same
just like the day you left
standing in the pain

Repeat Chorus

Bob,

Haven't listened to all your songs, but "Let Me go".
What a tearjerker that is. Almost sounds like you
relied on some life experiences.

Not sure if enjoyed is right words, cause its so sad,
but very good job on your short time writing...
And I did think back....and enjoyed it.

Very nice song.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
