Vocal Copyright Nat Daniels 2022
Lyrics and Melodic Composition Copyright Andy Hall & Gary Brown
Produced by Andy Hall

I was thrilled when Andy and Gaz invited me along on this collaboration.  The Lyrics are beautifully written and sung by Gaz and lends itself to great story telling. It was lovely to join him and to bring my creative spirit in harmonisation to the table.  Andy wrote the beautiful melody and created the gorgeous Instrumental track (which has a hauntingly beautiful Guitar solo) and then brought it All to life with his incredible Production / Mixing skills, breathing life into the song,  and giving it a depth of sound to make it "sparkle".

Lyrics:
Our Devine intervention - Gary Brown and Andy Hall.

Standing on the bridge
Staring into the water
(I’ve kept you waiting
An hour and a quarter )
My Head tells me to leave
My hearts a little more naive
(We’ve had 27 days apart
To rekindle this flagging heart )

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V2
Finally you arrive in your own chaotic style
(So my car went and broke down
And i walk the last 3 miles)
I get the big puppy eyes
And a cute little sorry sigh
(What lies beneath in this rivers deep
Are the same things in the
secrets we keep)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To were I love being yours
And you love being mine
Our Devine intervention
Needs to work for us this time

V3
(Let’s stand back to back
Walk in a different direction)
If we just keep right on walking
Then we have lost all affection
(If we both look back and then we stop
We won’t lose what we’ve got)
Well I stopped and looked back
(I kept walking down the path)

Chorus
Our Devine intervention
When we had each other’s attention
To we’re I loved being yours
And you loved being mine
Our Devine intervention
At least we know now this time

Time

The message in this song is that there is strength in numbers, one voice by itself may not be heard, but a million voices must be heard. One raindrop by itself is lost but when million come together they form the mighty seas. I wanted to get a live feel from this song so i recorded the vocal and the guitar live in 1 take on my Zoom X5 then transferred the WAV file to the DAW where i put in some atmospheric voice synth, some acoustic Bass and some percussion. its one of the longest songs i have recorded as i generally believe that most people won't listen more than 3 minutes but hopefully there is enough in here to keep interest,  i really hope you like it and to help here are the words.


One voice in the wilderness, 
one raindrop falls from the sky 
One soul lost in the darkness,
 One tear drop falls from an eye 

Two voices join together and sing in harmony 
Two raindrops join together help to form  the sea 
Two souls finds each other floating in the sky 
Two tear drops fall together as somebody starts to cry 

3 voices shout for freedom all for one and one for all 
3 Raindrops turn to snow drops as they gently fall 
3 souls on the ground fell the gentle Snow 
3 tears freeze like icicles on the world below 

4 voices sound so beautiful as they together sing 
4 raindrops paly a magic scale as the church bells ring 
4 souls move together in perfect harmony 
4 tear drops cry for you and for me 

5 voices become a quire voices of all pitches 
5 Rains drops fall and form a stream running in the ditches 
5 souls join together to become a might forces 
5 tear drop fall full of remorse

Together we are  Stronger (There's strength in numbers)

Gettin' up in the morning to the same old songs
and the moon's still up cause we beat the sun
better turn it all on just to make it
through another long one.

But it's never as bad as it could've been
though it could be better than it always seems.
So we do it for each other
it makes it a little better.

And we once were blind but we now can see
the way the world works and how it ever came to be
beautiful and ugly
yet there's room for one another.

So turn the noise off step outside and look up high
at the stars we all see in the same old sky.
They can't be hiding the truth
and we share them with each other.

I know the world's not perfect and it never was
and the wheel keeps turning like it always does.
Turns forward just a little faster
than it turned out last year.

Now we make the best of every turn we've got
and we won't quit livin' till the big wheel stops.
Gotta keep it goin' baby
just live a little longer.

The Time Has Come

Recorded by George Jones...released in 1980...named as one of the greatest Country songs of all time. Songwriters were Bobby Braddock and Curly Putman. My favorite George Jones song.

He Stopped Loving Her Today - Cover by Tony

Can't Hear You

Again, the team of No Killie Fish and Doug Michael Roossien.
I can't thank Johnny enough for laying down a perfect track. His patience and love for what he does. You are the best!!

Only just a picture like some long-forgotten dream
Somehow… still a memory …” of something…used to be”
Daddy saved this moment …
me there on your lap …just a lad
Only just a picture … but sometimes …sometimes I go back

Mom, you had so much ahead, and I had all of mine
Didn’t know, back then how much… you’d mean, in my life
That picture’s worn and torn …from all the times
I tried in vain… to return
Only just a picture … but sometimes, I’m right there… with her

They say you can’t go back…then how’d I get to here?
Time and place, collide again, we travel through the years
Daddy took that picture …like some long-forgotten song
They say you can’t go home again…
maybe they’re all “wrong”
Only just a picture … but somehow …sometimes I go back

We all have stacks of memories…family, friends, and such
Life’s mysteries, broken dreams, first times we made love
Only pictures, …only just a picture

First time that I saw that girl, took a picture in my mind
Promised her I’d write a song, the moment I had time
Her hair a flowing rhyme, …
her eyes they captured mine, and all of that
It’s only just a memory … but sometimes …sometimes I go back

They say you can’t go back… most times that seems right
Raining now in Frisco… Sierra … drowns in dry
But, I still ‘member Jackson Hole, you on your downhill run
Me, just waitin’ by the fire,
Writin’ one more song… about my love
They say you can’t go back… but those words, …remember you so much

They say you can’t go back …then how’d I get to here?
Time and place, collide again, we travel through the years
Only, just a picture …only just a song
They say you can’t go back again …maybe they’re all “wrong”
Only just a picture … but sometimes …
sometimes I go back / sometimes I go back
So… glad they’re saved ...remembering …Today
my “polaroid slideshows”
our “kodak memories” ….pictures

SOMEDAY THE WEIGHT OF THIS YEAR ON MY LIFE WILL BE AN ALBUM FULL OF PAIN,... BUT, RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE I'M CENTRALLY LOCATED IN HELL

1987 WENT TO Nashville for a “short week” Music row to make the big time … wow … nobody listens in lawsuit land in those days. 1988 WENT TO NASHVILLE for 3 days (surely, I would crack this puzzle and become famous …) so many on benches in front of churches. Frustrated, didn’t sing publicly again basically for 25 years. (after all, where would a singer/song writer, make a name for himself in Karaoke land).
2010 discovered open mics (new world begins). WRITING SINCE …a lot! Had someone to produce me in limited acoustic style for a couple years…I think a few were damn good “Fields of Quiet Soil”. Had a lot of offers to write lyrics and/or sing for a lot of other artists here. (but no recording capability …let alone a decent computer for my own. TODAY, THINGS CHANGE …I’m here to make an impact (got 4 new ones under my belt recently) …plus some old ones you will not be disappointed listening to. Welcome old music fans and artists., potential serious collabs.
I’m locked and loaded this time!
