Lyrics Hey Angel
I need you
To pull me up out of this hole

These demons
surround me
They pin me down and they take my soul
Again

Have I become the thing you hate?
Someone who kills what they create
Why can't you hear me screaming?
I'm begging you to save him
From me

My God what have I done?
And what have I begun?
Everything that I had and loved
Is Gone
Hardware Mac Pro, PC
Software: Cubase

I like it a lot! The singing... the lyrics... this song is very good.. Well done

rsorensen said 356 days ago
glad you like!
thanks for listening!

peacepiano said 398 days ago
Loud!
Big loud and heavy. Excellent performance. I caught most of the lyrics, they sound cool, could you post them here?


Thanks
Bill

rsorensen said 397 days ago
sure can
thanks a lot. lyrics are up now.

Karmatoburn said 398 days ago
great
like it ll. lyrics, vocals and the cool production. did you do all the instruments? this is top shelf all the way. the little leslie effect on the vocal (3 seconds?) was a nice touch. 10s if I ever heard it here

rsorensen said 397 days ago
thank you
a friend of mine wrote the tune and played all the instruments on this one. He showed me the song and I loved it so much it inspired me to write and sing the lyrics for it.

michael2 said 398 days ago

sounds great, what did you record this on? sounds studio quality. you have a really nice voice.

rsorensen said 397 days ago
thanks
I'm loving your latest too!

Yeah - the instruments actually were recorded in a studio a couple years back but we recently recorded the vocals at my friend's place on a PC running Cubase. He's got a wicked mic. I don't know the name of it but it's shiny, gold plated and it makes me sound a lot better ;)

rsorensen said 396 days ago
oh yeah...
Btw, I do know the site is called MACjams. The instruments were recorded with Cubase on a (wicked!) Mac Pro in the studio, then my vox with a PC later.

arachnidzone said 398 days ago
flawless
Loved it. Decent provoking vocals which really sound like you mean the lyrics. Great song!

rsorensen said 356 days ago
flawless?
Not sure about flawless, but thanks! this is probably the most personal song i've ever written, so yeah I do mean it.

Godchaser said 396 days ago
As usual!
Another passion filled performance.Love the vocal work and song crafting above all else.Everything is right where it otta' be.Great song once more.

Blessings,

rsorensen said 356 days ago
thanks!
I gotta give a ton of credit to my man Scott Davies who wrote the music. We've teamed up on a few songs but this is my fave!

Doadars Uncle said 395 days ago
Wow
This is Big!

Very nice! The lyrics are really well delivered. The whole piece is nicely dramatic.

Doug

rsorensen said 356 days ago
thanks
I was hoping for big so thanks! when i heard the song i knew there needed to be some emoting going on while I was singing so I chose a subject very personal to write about. im glad it seems to have paid off.

said 395 days ago
all around
nice peice of music, my friend. welcome to macjams. the rock and metal genres are in need of more representation around these parts. very well sung, played, mixed, executed, written, performed, and sung. oh did i say that already? well, worthy of two praises..it is always great to hear an upper register tenor like myself...
Allen

rsorensen said 356 days ago
thanks so much
i really dig your stuff! i need to spend more time in the metal section. maybe i should contribute as well? i need to get some rage out hehe

Moviz said 395 days ago

haroldsteele said 395 days ago
Got some power!
Power full sound, and great vocal, nice production. Love it!




rsorensen said 356 days ago
thanks
this was mixed by Scott Davies. If anyone's in the Vancouver/Coquitlam Canada area and wants a good ear to record and mix with, this is the guy! http://www.westwoodsound.ca

FGarofalo said 395 days ago
Great
sound you got here. Very good production and your vocals are fantastic.

pablatone said 395 days ago
welcome !
excellent production on a very good song. shiney gold plated mics are always better. ;)

rsorensen said 356 days ago
thanks!
haha yes. i tell you this mic is unbelieveable.. to the point of annoying at times because it records every little sniff, click and spittle!

davisamerica said 394 days ago

rsorensen said 356 days ago
:)
thanks for the comment and welcome!

gail60 said 394 days ago
awesome song
You are very talented singer and writer. This is a very cool song. I am curious about the words though, is this a personal song about you becoming a father? :) Regardless, great job! Downloaded and faved. Thanks for sharing!

rsorensen said 394 days ago
thanks so much
for your kind words! The song is about my fear of not being a good father to my son.

ageofthedeathtree said 394 days ago

Einarus said 391 days ago

Really, this sounds very pro.
Very cool writing - musically and lyrically - and the performances are flawless. You have one hell of a voice!

A nice surprise to stumble onto this today.
