Your Mix 3

I rerecorded the vocals, and remixed and mastered the track..

A change in the weather might bring me around again
You know I never liked the cold
A chance to turn this back around my friend
A chance to save my immortal soul
  
Nothing else that came so easy ever felt the same
But nothing hard to hold will ever stay
I watch the clouds form through the window pane
It fills the empty hours of the day

So I know one thing for sure…
It’s gonna rain today

The stars fall from the sky and wash up on the shore
Glowing softly blue before they fade
It’s every star i’ve ever wished upon
Now lying silent in their grave

No one that came before you made me feel that way
But I know what’s hard to hold will never stay
I watched the  stars fall from my window pane
And now I'm pleading for the light. of. day.

I know one thing for sure…
It’s gonna rain today
Somebody help me,
It’s going to rain today

Sometimes it seems this flood will never end
Sometimes it seems that all there is is drought
Sometimes the stars are shining in my hands
But they’re mostly full of doubt..

one thing’s for certain I can say…
It’s going to rain today
Somebody help me,
It’s going to rain today
Oh, won’t you save me,
Before the stars all fade away

It's Going To Rain Today

Nick Drake - Place to Be

Guitar and vocals by Stefano Manotti 

When I discovered Nick Drake's music, I immediately felt richer as a musician and less alone as a person. An artist who delved into the depths of human emotions, unafraid, driven solely by the need to express himself.The eternal beauty that he created will endure for centuries. I wanted to pay tribute to him with his masterpiece, in the fingerpicked version he recorded as a demo.
 

When I was young, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
And now I'm older, see it face to face
And now I'm older, gotta get up, clean the place

And I was green, greener than the hill
Where flowers grow and the sun shone still
Now I'm darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me a place to be

And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I'd see when day was done
Now I'm weaker than the palest blue
Oh, so weak in this need for you

Place To Be (Nick Drake Home Recording Version Cover)

No parquinho da praça
Eu vou balançar
Eu vou escorregar
Vou brincar no chão de areia

No parquinho da praça
Eu vou balançar
Eu vou escorregar
Vou brincar no chão de areia

O meu pai quando
Me empurra no balanço
Eu ouço o barulhinho
Que o balanço faz
(quando vai para frente e para trás)

Minha mãe fica esperando
Do outro lado do escorregador
Me dizendo: "vou te segurar" (lá -laiá)

No parquinho da praça
Eu vou balançar
Eu vou escorregar
Vou brincar no chão de areia

No parquinho da praça
Eu vou balançar
Eu vou escorregar
Vou brincar no chão de areia

O meu pai quando
Me empurra no balanço
Eu ouço o barulhinho
Que o balanço faz
(quando vai para frente e para trás)

Minha mãe fica esperando
Do outro lado do escorregador
Me dizendo: "vou te segurar" (uiiiii)

Parquinho é vida
Parquinho é vida de criança
Parquinho é bom demais

Parquinho é vida
Eu amo brincar lá no parquinho
Com meus pais

Parquinho é vida
Parquinho é vida de criança
Parquinho é bom demais

Parquinho é vida
Eu amo brincar lá no parquinho
Com meus pais

Parquinho é vida de  criança

I had the privilege of being asked to collaborate (lyrics/vocals) on this beautiful original tune by J.J. Terrell.  Fabulous contribution also by Josh Clary (Entheogenic Psychonaught). Hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating!

More details on how things came together... This is a song written on the piano by JJ, who wanted to share the creative process with two of his esteemed colleagues. He asked Ross to come up with some vocals and lyrics, which Ross did in a profoundly deep way. His experience with both life and singing is really evident in this. Then JJ asked Josh to add his multi-instrumental skills to the mix. So, Josh added bass and mandolin, with the great direction of JJ and Ross. Then JJ added some synth strings to the mix, too. Finally, Ross mixed, produced, and mastered it.
This is the first time, hopefully of many, that this trio has worked together. JJ and Josh, of course, are in the Eclectic Collective together, but this was their first time working with Ross. They were both really impressed with his work, and found him a real pleasure with whom to create.

We hope you enjoy listening as much as we did recording this!
