Just added my vocals to the bed track I have of this recorded several years ago. I know the original singer is MUCH better but because I do not have his contact details, I thought I'd try my own spin of this song.
Word & Music Errol Chugg…
This is a song I wrote that actually came true. I wrote it several years ago. The girl I wrote it about I had not seen in nearly 20 years. I just wrote the song as a 'what if"... A short time after I first posted it, I was suddenly emailed after…
I just recently found my old 1st girlfriend from 30 something years ago...And we got married 10 months ago!
So, I can definately relate....LOL
Congrats on the marriage and this great song!
My thoughts are: Don't touch it! Leave the magic of it alone.....

Think it’s time to take a holiday

Booked the villa and the Qantas fare…

Chester Arthur was the president
But no one remembers him
What about you?
He served a term with no vice president
And no one resident
To tell him what to do
He came to office by a bullet's grace
Garfield lost his place
And Arthur took…
she will smother you with all her love
take you by the hand and drown you with passion
she could lead the blind astray
and break the will of stronger men than me
she will take your heart
she will take your soul
gently to her you surrender
yielding…
this later became a jemima's kite song but this is the bare bones of the song before mike and tim added to it.
Just there
Not here
Just there
So close
So far
So near
So where you are
You take it as you find it
You see it as it is
You’re right…

=================================================
Floppy old mix. Another candidate for remixing or (at least) re-mastering. I'll probably do the latter soon.
This is a synthesizer instrumental…
Vocals: Sabrina Doughty
Lyrics: Grant D. McLeman
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
This is the 2012 remix.
This song was based on a free-form lyric by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland. Quite a challenge ... :)
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Lyrics: Paul Dempsey
Guitar: Billy Playle
Bass: Andy Gupta
Drums: Alex Zulaika
Composed by Steffen Offermann & Tricia Dovidio
Arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
Vocals: Tricia Dovidio
Lyrics: Bob Beckley
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
This one was tricky to do because the piano does not play at a fixed tempo, and it was an online collaboration (like all my collaborations).

EDIT:

I finally was able to remix the song. Please listen to "Fide On The Broom Stick (Version 2012)" in my track list to compare…

Excellent! Really like the idea behind this. Nice tune, well performed.
Fantastic lyrics. Vocals almost sound like Richard Harris with dynamic emotion..
I like this. The earthy vocals almost seem in contrast to the backing but they wok well together.
Very lush, Steffen. Where's the jacuzzi and the glass of champagne? Enjoyed the listen.
Is that Brina singing? Sounds great. Another cool song.
Really like the chords changes and vocals.
This is a really beautiful song. I look forward to hearing more of your songs!
This is a very, very pretty song! Great vocals.
