beautiful song, dan. love the rhythms and guitars. being an introvert myself the lyrics are very appealing;)

Love the edge on this, beautiful work D &D!

OMG I know these words so well. I very much can relate to this Guy's. I think many on SC can which is strange as we put ourselves out in the world with our music. Wonderful track.. LOVE IT X

you guys always come up with original song ideas, love your constant creativity!

Beautiful track! Class spanish/hispaniolic bluesy guitar accompanied by this deep soft bass and the drums. Good crafted lyrics in which the introverted among us can recognize themselfes. Beautifully tranquil and knowingly performed. And in the background, the fiddle tells this story on her strings. Really great atmosphere :D:D

of wonder lyrics and music ¡¡¡  super track ¡¡¡

Great tune and very cool style:) Top notch song! Kenny

#159 As the name implies, some people may seem outgoing and happy, but they aren't really themselves until they are alone.  

We hope you enjoy it (even if you enjoy it alone).

Lyrics;
In my little corner 
of my little world
I can be who I want 
I can be me
Behind the locked doors
I can be free

Don't have to see their eyes
Don't have to hear their voice
Don't have to feel the pressure 
Of where I don't have the choice

Here in the dark
Where no one can see
Here in my room
Where I want to be

Don't have to put on the act
Don't have to buy what they sell
Don't have  to try to fit in
Don't have to be someone else 

Safe in the comfort 
Of being alone 
I'm in the safety 
Of my little home

My mind floats away
My dreams are unfurled 
In my little corner
Of my little world

Introvert

Dan X2 is Dan Blackard (Reno, Nevada & Susanville, California) and Dan Lockhart (Carmel, Indiana & Edwardsville, Illinois).  We met here on SoundCloud.  We like making music together.  We have written and published over 300 songs together.  More songs written together than Lennon and McCartney.

We play the music that comes to us.  Much of our music has a basis in blues and rock.  Although we venture into other musical territory.  You will find hints of jazz, country, bluegrass, soul, classical, and other music in our songs.  We have a number of songs that change time signatures and pace.

When we first started recording we called ourselves Dan and Dan. 
 You can find our music under that moniker here:
https://soundcloud.com/user-590884876

We stopped using the name Dan and Dan's because there were to many other Dan's using that name.  If you google Dan and Dan we would not show up.  We believe that Dan X2 to be a moniker that we could own.   If you google Dan X2 we are right at the top,

We have a music making process that fits our unique skills.  We each do the parts that best fit our skills and interests.  Dan Lockhart does the initial song development.  Dan Blackard writes the lyrics, perform the vocals, and adds lead guitar.  Dan Lockhart then takes the track and do all final production (mixing and mastering).

Dan Lockhart writes all of the chords, timing, changes, and develops the track.  I then send two tracks to Dan Blackard.  One track has Dan L. describing the song.  Tell him the key, the timing, and any oddities about the song (changing keys or time signature...).  In the track Dan L tell Dan B verbally where is the verse, chorus, bridge and any other important information.

Dan Lockhart then send a second track that does not have this verbal dialogue.  This is called the instrumental track.  This is a track to which Dan B. can sing and add his parts.  Dan Blackard then returns  four pieces to Dan L:  a complete version of the song, a solo track of his vocals, a solo track of his guitar parts, and the artwork to accompany the song.

Dan Lockhart add his information into the original file.  Dan L. listen to it and make changes to the song to enhance the meaning of the lyrics. He sometimes adds instruments or takes away some instruments.  As Dan L. play many instruments (guitar, keyboards, banjo, mandolin, pedal steel, violin, viola...), he can make a lot of adjustments.    On rare occasions he move pieces about.  Dan Lockhart then masters it and prepare it for final production.
