You made this right! 🙂🎶❤️👏 from David Easterling

nice tune.loving grove and way it rises up and down

Funkety funk funktastic! That vocal doubling is GOLD, and I'm loving the lyrics. So thoughtful, as you always are, it pairs so well with the complex music.

Wow, this fantastic! This gets the whole body moving! Very catchy beat & melody. Delightfully funkadelic interlude & instrumentation. This is a hit, friend!

love the feel to this. Takes you in straight away!

Oh, love the vocal rhythm and the overall structure.  Chorus is catchy, and I love the implication of the lyrics.

Wow! What a bassline! Love that synth solo too!

Another collaboration with Mark Anderson where I sent him the tune, and he then wrote the lyrics to fit the tune.

To fall in love
(Mark I. Anderson)

Listen to these words
Let them fall upon your soul
Like you’ve never heard before
Like you’ll never let them go
Tonight, let the fire burn us
Tonight, let two hearts learn 
This is how it feels / oh, to fall in love

Hold me close and whisper
The things that love will say
I’ll hold you close to kiss you
At the closing of each day
Tonight, is all we need
Tonight, you can believe
This is how it feels / oh, to fall in love

(Bridge)
The mystery of the ages – hidden in our kiss
Time reveals her secrets – when I’m holding you like this

Listen to our passion
Hear the rhythmic beat
Two hearts pounding faster than
Even time could keep
Tonight, we’ll just let go
Tonight, we’ll let it show us
This is how it feels / oh, to fall in love

This is how it feels / oh, to fall in love

Week 3 Prompt - Standing In the Doorway

Note about the song: First song written with covid. Bit of a ramble on this, hit record and just ran with it. It was a challenge to try to focus on something a bit more structured. I'm honestly just glad to have been able to get this out. Be well, friends. 

mmm, mmm, mmm

the fog is closing in on my mind
the virus spreading through
having one hell of a time
my joints are aching and
my body's feeling low
but i know i gotta keep my 
head held high for
those else in tow

mmm, mmm, mmm

i see my daughter as she
doesn't say a word
just keeps her focus high
and she sings like a bird
i know i gotta meet that 
perch up in the air
and i know i give my blessings
for every 'nother new day here

mmm, mmm, mmm
oh woah oh, oh woah oh, oh woah oh

i know that this will turn out
the way it's meant to be
but let me tell ya something honestly
i'm surprised that i'm not 
feeling lower than hell
i'm glad for everything 
i been through 
leading up to this spell

mmm, mmm, mmm

so i'll let the fog have a minute
then i'll come back, too
and i'll just pray that
i find another day with you
and maybe at the end of it all
there'll be a knock and I'll see you
standing in the doorway
just welcoming me through

mmm, mmm, mmm
oh woah oh, oh woah oh, oh woah oh

'til then i'll just sit here
in this small room
and thank my lucky stars that 
i'm probably not facing my doom
i'll just sit here patiently
and keep on keeping on
and i hope that i'll have 
another day to write another song

mmm, mmm, mmm
oh woah oh, oh woah oh, oh woah oh

oh woah oh, oh woah oh, oh woah oh

Another Day of Covid Haze

WEEK 3 23/01/22
just a sketch idea-found this week challenging. 
PROMPT : STANDING IN THE DOORWAY

Matchless 
Like a precious jewel a treasure in a field-
Matchless
Hidden 'neath the soil of toil and broken faded dreams
Hidden 'neath the soil 
Matchless

Cashless
Songs of deep lament
Our empty spirits yield- Cashless
Ridden full of earth and dirt and broken cistern seas
Ridden full of earth 
Cashless

Catch us
In the sandstone halls
The fade then cut to grey- catch us
Standing in the doorway segue to my life unseen
Standing in the door
Catch us

Standing Week 3

Cover of "When I'm Gone" by Phil Ochs
Originally released in April 1966
Original version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yB-BBVQLnxI

Photo credit: Boston Herald article, "Phil Ochs: 'Gone' but not forgotten
https://www.bostonherald.com/2011/03/11/phil-ochs-gone-not-forgotten/

I was introduced to this song by John McCutcheon in July 2021 and again in January 2022. Within an hour of hearing it a second time, I took a listen to Phil's version (linked above), and then set to learn a very basic picking cover. Here's my first attempt.

When I'm Gone (Phil Ochs Cover)

Listen, I know, I said that i’d come back
I’d sleep on your porch - the planes sleep on the tarmac
Distance don’t matter when love’s strong enough
I used to think
I used to think that it was

Falling asleep to the sound of the protest
My city’s always done it better
Tell me our love's true because
I used to think
I used to think that it was

So you’re out in Boston
I’m saying that I’ll buy a ticket tomorrow too often
You’re saying that tomorrow’s too late
I’m torn between going and making mistakes

Listen, I know, this ain’t coming easy
I know you know I’m making this hard  
Time doesn’t matter when love’s strong enough
I used to think
I used to think that it was

Used To Think That It Was - song a Week 2022, Week 5

Disquiet Junto Project 0575: On Ice

Ice storm in a tea cup (disquiet0575)

Using the same sample I recorded back in 2013, treated with a bit of reverb here, some multi-tracking with pitch drops, (mmm, pitch drops), some copy ‘n paste, a bit of The Mangle and a smattering of various Audacity effects, I have created something pleasing (to me), if a bit hurried and unoriginal.

Ice storm in a tea cup (disquiet0575)

The sixth song from Deconstructed

Ceasefire

baby when we're fighting
things can get a little crazy
every single trouble
we can make it double, no one's giving up

should've seen it coming
could've shown a bit of mercy
isn't what we're getting
not that very good if someone's getting hurt?

baby i don't want it
making war to you is senseless
can we make it better?
can we stay together in spite of our faults?

what's the point of winning
if it's breaking us to pieces?
can we pick our battles?
we don't have to meet our armies every time

what if we stop and make this right?
baby we don't have to fight
why would you want to throw it all away?
we aren't happy all the time
but that will be alright
let's find a way, let's sign a ceasefire

baby i'm your ally
from the moment I said "I do"
we're in this together
even peace is better than just being right

life is never perfect
but it's not a zero-sum game
baby let's be patient
let's remember Rome was not built overnight

Ceasefire
