Just finished another new one, called All I Know. All the instruments are Realtracks/Realdrums, with some strings added. All the vocals are me. I hope you enjoy it!

All I Know

Here are the lyrics...

All I Know
Words and Music copyright Stephen W. Young

Standing there in the middle of my heart
The vision of a dream come true
Like a pretty picture, or an old post card
Reminders of happy times with you

All I know is that the sun shines brighter when you're next to me
I know the grass is greener right here our my own back yard
I know that love is more than a dream, it's reality
All I know is we were meant to be
And all I know is good enough for me

I try to think of ways to let you know
Just how I feel when you're around
I can't seem to find the words to show
Beyond what I can comprehend

All I know is that the sun shines brighter when you're next to me
I know the grass is greener right here our my own back yard
I know that love is more than a dream, it's reality
All I know is we were meant to be
And all I know is good enough for me

Have a great day!

Steve,

What a beautiful arrangement. I especially love that intro. Great lyrics.
You stole my heart with this one.

Steve,

This is good stuff! I love the lyric and the performance and the arrangement are top shelf for sure.

Good stuff indeed.

Later,

Hi Steve,

great vocals and harmonies.
Arrangement and mix are fantastic.

Guenter

Hey Steve.
You have such a fat sound going on here.
Love it.

Steve you just continue to blow me away with your talent as a writer as well as your production skills. Thanks for sharing!

What a great track, Steve.
Wonderful love song. Choice of tracks from RT/RB are perfect as is the song.
Loved it.
Cheers
Ian

Steve,

This is excellent all around. Love the lyric and production.

Bob

Very nice Steve. Well done.


Regards,

Bob

As always very well done.

Mike

Steve,

Wonderful through and through (as always). Beautifully written song - lyric and melody.
Great vocal and harmony (as always). Your use/choice of RealTracks is ALWAYS so nicely done. The low-volume accordion in the background is a brilliant idea (that sounded like something Noel would say, didn't it!). And the tasteful mix of guitars and mandolin is... well,... tasteful!!!

And like Josie said... that intro is sweet.

The whole track has such a wonderful flow.

"Son, you need to drop by more often"

floyd

You are very excellent with your songwriting! I hope to aspire to be as good as you one day. I really loved this song that you just did excellent job, I really love the mandolin.

The song is up to your usual high standards
The above posters say it all

excellent

Alyn

Well I absolutely did enjoy it.
I agree with everyone else that this is top notch stuff! Excellent in every aspect.
For some reason every time it goes to the chorus... I just wanna smile.
Great job Steve!

Greg

Hey Steve,

If you could look through my monitor right as this moment, you'd see me sitting here with an incredibly impressed look on my face. This is an outstanding song: lyrics, melody, arrangement, production and mix. That first line of the chorus is dynamite. It really packs an amazing punch.

In my opinion, this is songwriting at its absolute best.

All the best,
Noel

Josie,
