i am thinking about words tonight
they can be hard as nails
they-can be as shapeless as water
they can break your heart
they can hang like a chain
hold you up for years
cause you to think twice
take away your fears
you are falling in love…
the phrase "on thatch, on leaves, on tin, on willow" is from the book "A House in Bali" by Colin McPhee
Originally for RPM '07 album.
It might drag on a bit long.
White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.
i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
Hey, notice the new forum section... Track Therapy? discuss with me: http://alonetone.com/forums/track-therapy/topics/help-me-find-direction-for-this-track
Mr Glu
I like your little ditty. I think it has a lot of promise.
The one thing that I believe it needs is a "B" part. You are basically playing the same chord progression over and over again. Not too bad since it's only 2:29 long but a B part would help. I don't know what key its in but lets just say its G. Your B part should be in some other rel chord starting in C or D and progress for 8 or so bars somewhere in the middle of the tune. Just to mix it up.
I hope this is what your looking for.
I do not know anyone named Lilly Child. I just thought the name sounded good.
This is third of 10 "Off the cuff" songs written last June. I have only recorded 4 of the 10
I composed this track as a demo of my sampling project "The First Bulgarian Virtual Choir" some time ago...
I invited the famous folk singer Katia Georgieva to perform the live lead vocal.

Originally from RPM '07 album, this version has been reworked a fair bit.
