A healing spell-song for sick little ones everywhere

https://soundcloud.com/japokeapeg/sleep-tonight-little-one-heal-tonight

Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)

Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

Your laughter and smiles and goo goos
Take away all the world's blues
Spending our day making christmas pud
We got covered but the spoon tasted good
Calm days, warm and sunny
With smiles as sweet as honey
Then black clouds storms and rain
You hardly showed your pain

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been woven by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

Tears in my eyes watching you play on your swing
You say “don’t cry mummy, there are worse things”
Telling silly jokes to make us laugh
Because you didn’t want to see us so sad

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been woven by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

M8 In your dreams you’ll be running, running through the trees.
Playing on the beach and swimming, swimming in the sea.
But pretty soon it’ll be real, the sun upon your skin.
Then you’ll find yourself dancing with kings.
Then you’ll find yourself dancing with kings.

Chorus Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
The spell has been cast by granny and mum
Sleep tight little one (heal tonight)
Tomorrow you’re going to shine like the sun.

A warm and gently humorous song; a lullaby with pop touches.
I enjoyed the bits of British-sounding detail ( a Beatlesque touch).
Well done.

Nice write, good subject.
I was a little overwhelmed with the heavy nature of the vocals (perhaps some EQ is in order) but, I think you've got a winner here.

As parents and guardians, people do everything they can to take care of the children in their care and make sure they're not hurting, but so much healing comes to parents and guardians just from being around kids and their caring hearts. This was a lovely song and a nice lullaby, thanks for taking the time to share!


Cheers,

I couldn't have said this any better. This is a very lovely lullaby. Super vocal, backing tracks, and mix.

Two thumbs up.


I went line dancing last night. Well it was a roadside sobriety test, same thing.

Hi,

Nice song - melody, lyrics and well mixed.

Vocals - as mentioned above - they are very lower mid and bass heavy and hence boomy. Perhaps roll off the bass on all vocals (lead and harmony) starting at 125Hz.

Best Regards
Nigel
