Song Without Words

A Day

Hello everyone, 
Sometimes things happen in life that we never expected. 
When David Dunham asked me if I would orchestrate and sing his song “Faithful and True,” Of all people, I couldn't understand why he was asking me. I was surprised – and deeply honored. He wrote this song many years ago.

This song tells a story that probably affects us all in one way or another: the question of whether love will endure when life challenges us. It speaks of longing, of the inner struggle between desire and responsibility - and of the strength to remain faithful despite everything.

I delved into this song and tried to design it musically so that its message reaches exactly where it belongs - directly into the heart. “Faithful and True” is not a typical love song, but rather a reflection on love in all its facets: beautiful, painful, deep...

"Faithful And True" (written by David Dunham)

I recall the day I said "I do",
I never thought that I could love anyone
Like I love you,
But of late I'm really not so sure
That the promises we made can hold
Us together as we both grow older
With each day.
Is it possible for love to endure?

But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

Instrumental

It doesn't stop the pain of admitting what can never be,
But if love has any meaning it is found in trust,
And not in what we feel.

There's a sadness as I say farewell
To a love that promised more than I could ever tell,
Or at least that is the way it seemed
To a man who found himself in love
With another 'till he counted the cost of fantasy.
It was more than he ever dreamed.

But I've made up my mind.
I've made my choice,
This feeling will pass but never the voice,
That tells me I must remain,
Faithful and true.

This recording is an overdubbing of my guitar on the work "Taking It Back feat. IPG" of "Paploviante".

When I first heard this work on the "IPG1" page, I still didn't understand how wonderful it was. I realized that when I heard "Lillithe" make it into a work. I once again admired the musical talent of "Lillithe". I thought there was no room for me to get in there. But that wasn't the end of the story. This is because "Paploviante", a partner of "Lillithe", finished it in another work. The work was also a wonderful finish. As I listened to it many times, one day I suddenly began to wonder, "I think this is blues." I chose a blues three-code that matches the work of "Paploviante". I checked whether the scale derived from it fits the Vocal of "IPG1". It matched exactly. The three chords are introduced below, so if you are practicing playing the guitar, please play the guitar with our recording.Please take this opportunity to check the relationship between the blues chord progression and the blue note scale.
