Here's Di singing for the first time since her minor stroke last month. Believe it or not, she did this on one take. It took all her energy, but she got it done! It's a Pop Rock tune from the era of the late 90's. It's a little loud ... I need to cut the master volume on it next time I play around with it.
We wrote the lyric, the music and recording it in about 6 hours earlier this afternoon. It's more in the demo stage and we're open to any and all suggestions. Di said to tell everyone how much she appreciates the well-wishes and kind thoughts of the people here on the forum. Same goes for me.
And that's me, Alan, doing the harmony in falsetto ... I'll never be the same!

Thanks for listening and any comments you might have.
Mystery Man
(c) 2014 Alan D. David, BMI / Diana Randall, BMI
(v1)
Dark eyes with a hypnotic glow
Erotic smile that brings me alive
Shows up at the club each night
Stays above all the talk and jive
Soft spoken, never says too much
Gentle strength in Armani threads
He walks my way passing by the rest
The other girls all turn their heads
CHORUS
A mystery man coming into my space
Got no past that no one can trace
Takes my breath when he takes my hand
I'm captivated by a mystery man
A mystery man
(v2)
Magic feet on the hardwood floor
Body swaying to the melody
The ladies hoping for that special dance
He just smiles says it's saved for me
I feel his breath as it warms my cheek
Holds me close setting off alarms
I'm wishing that the song won't end
It's like magic when I'm in his arms
REPEAT CHORUS
Instrumental Verse
(v3)
A fantasy from a midnight dream
Everything that a man should be
But he's elusive like a butterfly
I'll never have him cuz he's got to be free
Like a whisper in a summer breeze
He disappears right before my eyes
But he'll be back on another night
And once again I'll be hypnotized
REPEAT CHORUS
- but I think you would be better off doing a low harmony (Alan as Barry White).
