Description:
It's just been so long. I needed to put something out. I hope you enjoy it.

Doug

I'll have to troubleshoot my cables again. I think there's an issue with one of the adapters...

Lyrics:
You, you are like still water
I look at you and see me
And in my heart is you

Dip my hand
Soft ripples
Roll away
From your heart

Inside you is a power
Grows within your heart of grace
Flows like water to me

Still water
Look in deep
To your soul
But a glimpse

Hardware:
Me-n-my guitar

an air of static.I like that 'noise',that 'hot' room recording becuase it sounds so right then,so immediate,so this is it period!Lovely words Doug.Short simple and ....still.Nice little piece of soul.

Blessings,

Wonderful comment. I didn't try too hard to eliminate the background noise. But I have a theory! I may revisit this one. Until then, I agree with you! It does bring the song closer. As if standing in a light fog, all you can see is what's in front of you.

Thanks my friend,
Doug

Hey Feter! &mdash 02/26/08 - 11:37:49 AM
Thanks brother. I am working on recording with few takes and tracks, right now. Subsequently, I sink into the music a bit more and ignore technical issues.

Seems right.

Thanks for your appreciation!

I love the whole feel of this. It's so relaxed and pretty and just beautifully reflects (no pun...) the meaning of the lyrics. Your voice is just sweet as anything, Doug.

I think your interpretation and performance is a really nice choice and very memorable. I'm downloading this one. Thanks for allowing that.

smooth and one of those inside the soul type a things. perhaps short. maybe thats the point short & sweet

Thank you Vic! &mdash 02/26/08 - 04:52:33 PM
Yup, you're right. I didn't feel justified to extend it. It would have been so much fluff, I guess.

Peace,

Glad you stopped by! A goal of stillness.

Thanks,

Lovely &mdash 02/26/08 - 05:10:28 PM
Unconventional, delicate and light, and very suggestive of the physical properties you sing about, and the power of simple emotions to effect change. This frailty is lovely.

This is a new sound from you.. A full on singing adventure. I like the power in every click and splatter of your mouth moving. Very cool that was great short and perfect to me!

Hey bandit! &mdash 02/27/08 - 11:28:13 AM
Thanks for the comments. I had considered running DeEsser. In the end, the sounds added to the intimacy of it all.

Thanks,
Doug

pretty... &mdash 02/27/08 - 09:01:27 AM
and minimal. I love it. Leaves me wanting more -- doesn't that mean you've made this the perfect length? Wonderful guitar and intimate vocals. Just lovely. :-)

Hey Miss C! &mdash 02/27/08 - 11:35:33 AM
I'm glad you like it. To me, it is like a concentrate or packet. Maybe like one of those little breath mint strips that you put in your mouth and it explodes into flavor.

If I remember, you are from Milwaukee, right? I'm sure you're not missing shovel season in WI, this year!

Peace,
Doug

[ Reply to This ]
yes and no &mdash 02/27/08 - 12:24:30 PM
:-) I moved to Texas from Milw almost 2 years ago. But I hear this is WI's 10th worst winter on record. Don't miss it a bit!

I feel like I got to know you a little more personal. This is a sweet, delicate, intimate, loving moment that I really enjoyed listening to. Your sweetie is lucky.
Simple, yet deep and meaningful. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Now that's not .. &mdash 02/28/08 - 03:26:24 PM
.. what I was expecting! Shades of Mr Young. Lovely song and a really different approach - you could easily have gone for the strumerama approach here (which would still have worked) but this is more interesting.

Yeah, those cables need to be retired I'd say Doug ;)

Cheers,
Neil

Hey Neil! &mdash 03/14/08 - 11:22:41 AM
I'm glad you listened!

This is my first attempt at a "Love Song." It was really a creation of that particular moment. Interesting how sometimes one can get into the depth of the picture we are trying to create.

Cables.

Yup! One of these days and I'm getting a whole new system.

Achingly genuine, tender and REAL. It's making me feel lots of feelings - just what music is for. This is tremendously beautiful - sorry I missed it earlier. I look forward to hearing more of you music - thanks

Minimalism rules herein!

Beautiful work Doug. Perhaps your best vocal delivery to date.

Deeply spiritual concept conveyed in almost koan-like lyrics.

Love the sound of that guitar too. Nice subtle effects.

Be well friend!

Mike, you rascal! &mdash 03/29/08 - 06:06:40 PM

Beautiful singing &mdash 04/01/08 - 09:55:24 PM
on this one, and what a haunting, almost ethereal performance, like something heard on a radio in a car traveling down a melancholy highway. Lovely lyrics, great guitar sound. This is beautiful. Nicely done, my friend. Peace.

nice vulnerable quality to the vocals. nice mellow piece. i think the guitar could come up a tad perhaps.

Kind of you to stop by. It means a lot coming from a guy, I consider very heartfelt.
