Description:
ok i'm really trying not to make a bunch of posts at once. ive waited almost a week lol. actually this recording is old it was recorded the week before i moved back to seattle last summer i wanted to get a demo for some friends at work cuz they wanted to know what i sounded like. i had a long week of 2 hours of sleep for the whole week and after screwing up lots finally just did a live recording of all my songs. i have a love hate relationship with this recording half the time i love it and it makes me emotional the other i think it sounds like crap. i never posted it here because i felt it wasn't worth posting and i was trying not to annoy people with anymore bad recordings. i do feel it's one of my more structured songs though as i put a decent ammount of time into it.

Lyrics:
if you see her tonight
tell her i love her
if you see ravyn
tell her i need her

the stars won't shine anymore
the sky turns black for me
i tried so hard for her
it leaves me in two

but this heart will not forget
what she meant to me
i've tried so many times
i can't let go

if you see her tonight
tell her i love her
if you see ravyn
tell her i need her

if you her tonight
tell her i'm sorry
i swear i'll get it right
under the moon light

my heart still bleeds alone
i've held no one but her
i need her in my arms
to make this right again

i'm sorry for the pain
the way we fell apart
i'm sorry for the love
we had to end

just hold on one more time
we'll get through this tonight
just hold on one more time
i swear i'll get it right

if you see her tonight
tell her i love her
if you see ravyn
tell her i need her

Ahh, songwriting basics... &mdash 04/11/08 - 10:13:25 AM
This is a good, honest croon... a "normal" song for my little musical brain, which can get sidetracked by technology... inspires me to get back to songwriting and give hte effects a break.

Take care

Again.. &mdash 04/13/08 - 11:10:10 AM
nice little jem. You REALLY need to start adding all the backing instruments or at least get some folks here to give you a hand. I think you write very well and your tunes deserve to be takin' to the next level.

Well done Chance.

Very touching and heartfelt performance. Your voice carries tremendous feeling and expressiveness, and you sing this beautifully. This is a perfect example of a song that needs nothing else - there is so much power in your vocal. Very impressive. Nicely done. Peace.

I like this - &mdash 04/23/08 - 08:24:42 AM
because it's a real song, just you against the elements.

The song it'self puts me very much in mind of some of Elvis Costello's work and the vocal delivery is not unlike our Elvis as well. Very touching and appealing piece. Thanks.

John
