Description:
I am not quite finished with the lyrics but I wanted to post what I had. I think the song stands nicely on its own too. In my head i am imagining a female voice singing with this tune. Any thoughts?
Lyrics:
[Verse]
Life is filled with choices
And never ending pathways
Roads that lead to a destination
Have you ever questioned
Where it is you want to be
Some place far away from temptation?
[Chorus] X2
won’t you please tell me now
oh tell me how
to live
won’t you please show me now
oh show me how
to live.
[Verse 2]
Luck won’t last forever
But fate binds you together
Perfectly in tune with every dream
Have you ever wondered
What it is like to feel free,
total harmony with everything?

Wonderful &mdash 10/24/06 - 09:15:21 PM
This is awesome, Brandon. I especially love the piano parts near the end. I
would suggest some different synths during the second movement near
the beginning - some sound a lot like a pretty basic clavinet. Other than
that this is wonderful. The beat is perfect, and you manipulated the
melody perfectly before going on to another.

I am so glad to hear that you liked it, Ben. Thanks for taking the time to
listen. I appreciate that very much. [ Reply to This ]

I take back my comments about the clavinet. I first listened to this on
laptop speakers. I see now that it is electric guitar and it sounds great
through headphones.

NIce theme &mdash 10/28/06 - 12:54:29 AM
nice and simple main theme here that could become really boring but it doesn't because of your song structure. Nice build and good breaks at just the right spot. Good stuff! [ Reply to This ]
great &mdash 10/28/06 - 01:48:52 PM
Nice melody &mdash 10/28/06 - 03:49:02 PM
It has a nice "hook" to it. It does stand well on it's own, but vocals might help to reinforce the melody even more. Nice tune! [ Reply to This ]
Wow &mdash 10/28/06 - 10:03:07 PM
cool track man!
I'd love to mess with the drum programming on this track.

Cool Arrangement &mdash 10/30/06 - 12:13:53 PM
Hi Brandaman!
Wow, i think you defined the genre of dance-club new with this track.
Very impressive!
I just like the mix, expecially when the melody of the lead synth comes back at the end.
I like the percussion.

my favorite is the piano that comes in closer to the end &mdash 10/30/06 - 03:11:33 PM

I've listened to a few of your tracks now, and I'm really starting to get into your music. And as they say, Bran is good for you, so here we go! This one's just a really sweet and fun tune and proofs my theory that a talented musician can be good in more than one genre. I'm really looking forward to hearing more from you! [ Reply to This ]
nice! &mdash 11/24/06 - 10:16:19 AM
Gosh, I love this song! The other day me and WiFiWalrus couldn't get it out of our heads. It has a VERY catchy tune. Keep it up! [ Reply to This ]
and... &mdash 04/08/07 - 07:07:09 PM
You said you wanted vocals done on this song. I can't get anything out of as far as sending me the file that is supposed to accomidate lyrics. Did you scrap the idea? I would just like to know anything!!! Thanks!

incredible &mdash 12/16/06 - 04:25:16 PM
My man Bran... u rocked this one. Your use of the main motif is just astounding not to mention the actually joy of that lead itself. If this were played in clubs (which it very well could be) i bet the whole place would light up when they heard the beginning of this song. It's one of those that truly has to make you smile the first few times you hear it. I've only made one melody that has made me truly smile when i first listened to it. I bet this one made u smile. Keep doing stuff in this genre my homeslice. If u add some vocals to this piece which i think u should (since it already has the verse chorus structure in it) it would really bring it to the next level. Excellent work, inspirational id say.
