I hate asking anybody for anything, but on my bucket list was to have Emma sing along with one of my songs. I needed a gal to sing the crazy part and she is most qualified and did agreed. Yes, I could have chosen a better one, but we both agreed it might be good to do it just for fun.
Her intro shows so much personality. I only wish I was better with mixing? Just such a great experience.
song origin = Guy and gal in a very close relationshipā¦girlfriend says did you know your guy is having an affair with Sarah?..she is so upset, jumps in her cars speeds to confront him and dies in a car accidentā¦she will now haunt him for the rest of his lifeā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦some chords Dmin F G Bb C bpm 90
I saw what you did Iām gonna make life miserable for you
The curtain moved there is no one aroundā¦No windows open there was not one sound
Am I going crazy am I losin my mindā¦ I canāt ignore it it keeps comingā¦. Backā¦ all of the time
Show yourself just bring it on ā¦been goin onā¦way to long We gotta talkā¦gotta know who you are
Iām watchin you from the other sideā¦you canāt run you canāt hide
Iāll torment you until the day you dieā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦it shouldnāt take that long
Iām sittin here just searching my soleā¦Iāve done you harmā¦this much I know
I got bad feelin you might be here to get even with meā¦.thatās why youāre haunting my home
It was an accident thatās what they all saidā¦ I found out about her ā¦and off I sped
You were in her bed the night that I diedā¦Bet you rememberā¦you have no place to hide
Show yourself ā¦you were betrayedā¦I was bad what can I sayā¦.so what can I do to make you go away
Iām watchin you from the other sideā¦you canāt run you canāt hide
Iāll torment you until the day you dieā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦it shouldnāt take that long
Ha ha Thanks Eric. I actually thought of requesting that when it popped up, but it sounded a little selfish. I would love to participate however in a track that one of my friends here has made. Thanks for the listen and comments bud:)
Oh, for fun! Nice job Paul and Emma. Very creative. Nice song idea, nice vocals, good arrangement, and a very nice mix on top of it all. Got to feel good about this!
Hi guy. I have always loved Emmaās tracks. So much talent there. I just lucked out having her say yes.
You know how it is tho. When you are done, you post it, and then you hear STUFF ha ha Thanks for you kind words
I try a bunch of collabs and they seldom work for meā¦ the secret with this one was simply diving in, without thought or goal and having fun and not even caring what it sounded likeā¦ heheā¦ what sort of recording philosophy is that???
I usually try collaborations that interest me, for a few days and see if they gel, and this one had a lovely creative synergy. Thanks Paul!
Hey Mike. Thanks a lot for taking the time to listen and comment. The question is, are we ever satisfied with the mixing? I have to walk away or I keep picking like leftover turkey at thanksgiving
feaker,
Youāre very good about reviewing my music, so here I am. Mix sounds good to me! Vocals sound very good & so do the instrumentals. This is a minor gripe: I think the song ending could be more dramatic, or more of a standard issue fade out, or let that last electric bass note ring out longer. I think this song could work well in a play, or somewhat of a rock opera. Cheers!
