Description Lyrics and Music - byLee
Instruments recorded by massa with GarageBand 08
All vocals recorded by Lightman! (first collab for both of us)
Lyrics Part I

When you wake up to a rainy day like this
You think to yourself " Can I be the same?"
and you know you can cause life ain't over.

Just remember that one day the sun will shine
and you'll be again all so fine
life will be Just Like Starting Over

Chorus

But it just keeps running through my mind
how could I have been so wrong in so short time

Part II

One day you wake up so fine
the next one you just want to die
but you know that's life playing tricks on you

So I get up and i tune my guitar
I sing this song it help heal my scars
and I try to survive one more day... or two

And they'll tell you that the best way to live
is to take one day at a time
but you know, you know that that's a lie

They say there's always the next day
and whatever you do they come
"Hey, hey Mister! You've got a debt, you've got a price to pay"

And it just keeps running through my mind... (back to Chorus)

Wow
Wow... This sounds much better than the demo i've made, with you early backingtrack.....

It's cool.... Thanks for making this collab with me...

Maybe another one sometime?



massa said 276 days ago

massa said 276 days ago
Thanks!
Thanks Feter! The vocals were actually recorded by Lightman in collab. Glad you liked it too. Thanks for commenting. I'll check out your songs. All the best!

ceilidh said 276 days ago
very nice song
like a lot the melody line and also chosen instruments, the violins sound just fantastic. That guitar tiny solo after mid of the song is truly lovely, would put even more of that there. I am not very keen on that sudden ending of the tune. The sound is too quickly cut off.
A brilliant song Lee, very nice

Hi Paja! Thanks for stopping by and commenting my song. I agree with you about the ending... I was eager to upload and ended up not spending quite any time there... maybe should have used a simple fade out. Best rgds!

Dee1962z said 276 days ago
Very good.


Hi

Hey ! You two dudes ha ha..

Congradulations to you both.
sounded really good I loved the beat and the lovely rythem the 'Harmony' was sound, it sounded like the two of you were singing together.
i agree though, it ends far to abruptly without warning.


That is the story on most of mine, got to get to grips with that problem ,otherwise this was a ' Fantastic' callab. keep up the really good work guys.

Peace
Dee xx



drakonis said 275 days ago
cooooool collab!
Nice nice stuff here... I like the Beatles-like sound, nice singing Jakob, and great playing there Massa. Only 2 suggestions... #1 when you sing the chorus 2 times in a row, I sort of wanted the very last note of the second chorus to have a different, and more final-sounding harmony than the first one (if that makes sense)... and #2 the ending of the song is rather abrupt... I hate fade-outs, so don't do that... but perhaps a final few chords while just singing the fragment "how could I have been so wrong... so wrong, so wrong..."? Just an idea...

ttfn,
Drakonis

Lightman said 275 days ago
Thanks
THanks for your idea to the final of 2nd chorus.... I'll do that, next time i make music.... It's a great idea... Thanks

jakob

massa said 275 days ago
OK!
Thanks Drakonis. I'll consider both tips next time i work on this song again. regarding the ending, I can repeat the chorus and on the last time just repeat the " in my mind... in my mind..." towards an end. Rgds!

cgamborg said 275 days ago
Great music
Hi Massa

Very nice work here. Play is exellent and singing is fine to. Nice tunes. Make some more, please ...

NB. I'm happy that a collaboration is made between Brazil and Denmark this way. I was in Brazil for 5 weeks in the year 1998 and is planning to go there again this year. I love Brazil. Especially the people there and the music.

/C.

massa said 275 days ago

cool!
liked the soft/paced melody; loved the solo, it blended perfectly with the song/lyrics but I got to say, the ending left me in quite a shock, I was waiting for more... oh well, overall very nice song! keep it up

massa said 271 days ago
Thanks!
I will certainly redo the ending of this song... I wasn't happy with it either... but was too eager to upload a new song... thanks for listening and for the feedback. All the best!

And your happy with it.


I.......LIKE IT..........

massa said 258 days ago
Thanks!
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for stopping by. Rgds!

dajama said 258 days ago
Very cool
I like this song a lot. The vocals are great - very good use of harmonies. I like the violin sound, and the use of the acoustic guitar is great (is that nylon strings?). Good lyrics, with some images, and very good mix. I have to agree with ceilidh on the abrupt ending - it kind of took me by surprise! But this is a small point. Very cool. A great collab. I look forward to checking out more of your music.

massa said 258 days ago
Thanks! Collab?
Thanks dajama! The guitar has nylon strings.. you're right... i think it suits well this ballad. I will change the ending of this song as soon as i get to it again. It is good that i have these feedbacks! Thanks for listening and taking the time to comment. I checked your songs and liked them as well. I'll send you a note to see if you are into collab. Ciao!

Excellent.
Groovy melody n' production, reminds me of something else which is usually a good sign. Could've maybe done with a bridge but a fine effort nonetheless. Keep on rawkin Massa.
