Take A Chance

Words, Music Gerry Segal © 2021 

Verse 1
Take A Chance, Take A Chance
Wake up from a trance
Step outside, be a guide to circumstance
Reach out and don't hide
Take the side of friendship and love

Verse 2
Take the time take the time 
Till you realize
Life is filled with  surprise and some compromise
We've been so far apart 
It's time to restart the road to love

Chorus
Half the world crave apocalyptic myths and abusive power
Half the world is pushing seismic shifts  and laws to devour
Where do you stand where do you go
Half the country's at you nail and tooth
Look them up, look them down, look them straight in the eye
And always tell the truth

Verse 3
Take the time take the time 
Till you realize
Life is filled with  surprise and some compromise
We've been so far apart 
It's time to restart the road to love
 
Chorus
Where do you stand where do you go
Half the country's at you nail and tooth
Look them up, look them down, look them straight in the eye
And always tell the truth

Outgo
Take A Chance, Take A Chance
Wake up from a trance
Step outside, be a guide to circumstance
Reach out and don't hide
Take the side of friendship and love

Take A Chance

A longer comparison of the vocal synthesis produced by Emvoice Lucy (paid version), and three voices by Synthesizer V : Eleanor Forte (free version), Eleanor Forte AI (free version) and Maki AI (free version).

All tracks are produced with the same mix, levels, fx etc. The first four parts are the four voices with the same backing track. The second four parts are the same voices raw (raw vocals with no backing or effects).

The playlist is:
1.	Emvoice Lucy (with backing)
2.	Synthesizer V Eleanor Forte (with backing)
3.	Synthesizer V Eleanor Forte AI (with backing)
4.	Synthesizer V Tsurumaki Maki AI English (with backing)
5.	Emvoice Lucy (RAW)
6.	Synthesizer V Eleanor Forte (RAW)
7.	Synthesizer V Eleanor Forte AI (RAW)
8.	Synthesizer V Tsurumaki Maki AI English (RAW)

Again, to be fair to Synthesizer V, I am new to Synthesizer V and so the output might be improved with tweaking. Also, this was produced using the free  Synthesizer V Studio Basic. The full Pro version might give better results.

What do you think? Personally, I prefer the vocals from Emvoice, but the range of editable parameters  available in Synthesizer V is really impressive and gives greater scope for creativity.

“Now and Then”
                                 (Lyrics, Music  Gerry Segal        ©2022 )

Now and Then
A new song will just knock me over
Ear candy for the heart and masses just amazes me

It's just like Zen
In the present and in a billion places
What's in a song that's so strong and can set us free

Lord. Set me straight 
I've listened to songs on a million playlists
From artists who put in their soul and output quality
Those songs must vibrate
with people's needs and private places
To endear the public ear
Is the sweet sweet place to be

Now And Then

Gonna Go, Gonna Stay
Words, music Gerry Segal  © 2009 BMI
1.
First you tell me that you really want to tell me something,
then you tell me daddy everything is just OK,
Putting on your pretty pretty prom dress for your friends,
Girl this isn't playing dress up it's the end.
 2.
Uncle Robert took your picture it was in blurry, blurry motion,
He captured everything about your life when you were just a girl was 10,
Blurry, blurry motion turns to beauty and grace.
Fuzzy fuzzy logic keeps my mind in constant motion keeps my sentimental heart in place.
3.
I know I know there are 1 or 2 things that I know about leaving.
Everybody has to leave their home in their own sweet way.
I'm so glad my baby has a life and love of her own.
But anyhow and anyway you're gonna go and I'm gonna stay,
I love you and when I hug you you'll be home.
I said...
Anyhow and anyway you're gonna go and I'm gonna stay,
I love you and when I hug you you'll be home.

Gonna Go, Gonna Stay

Words and Music by Gerry Segal  2016

verse 1
If I could hold one thought I would remember
It's the day we met in late September
On the Quad, on the lawn near the wall of Ivy Vine.
Our lives move like the river bends
The best antiques are good old friends
I know, I care that our lives will stay entwined

verse 2
Our place in time cannot be denied
Our lives unfold untold in ways that we will define
In this space and place in the school of Ivy vines
The campus glows in the morning sun
Where we create what we will become
And I know as we grow we will all stay entwined
chorus
Cast a giant shadow, for each one around us
Yes and cast a light for those to come
Harmonize, enterprise and combine them
It's so free and yet so bound
To our brothers and our sisters that we hold so dear
To the past generations who have brought us here
To our lives going forward we will always stay entwined

Young Children Are Falling
Words and Music: Gerry Segal  © 2016

Young children are falling like leaves in the autumn sun
On your towns and turf, schools and churches
Next to Daddy’s loaded gun
Young Children Are Falling in the towns of the travelling gun
Look at their chubby cheeks and sweet eyed faces
Tell them nothing can be done

Chorus
News cycles move so fast, politicians move so slow
Parents with their lives torn apart left standing with a hole in their heart
No one to turn to, nowhere to go

Young Children Are Falling what the hell have we done?
Passed bad laws with greed and children bleed
And their bloods on everyone

Young Children Are Falling

My Everything
I ran across lyrics posted on a songwriting FB page posted by someone I didn’t know - but the words really spoke to me. As I read the lyrics I heard melodies and music in my head. So I reworked some of the lyrics and recorded the song in my home studio. What you, hopefully listen to here, is the end result. 
What I found out later was that the writer of the lyrics does not play an instrument or sing…he writes poems and lyrics. Poems and lyrics that deserve to be complete songs. I encourage anyone that’s a writer to connect with other people to reach that end goal. In my case; two strangers now fulfill what’s deep in their souls by not being afraid to share what they love to do most…write songs.
