Description:
A first attempt at garageband

Lyrics:
WHAT DO VOU WANT

You ask me to be different, baby
And yet you don't want someone new
You took me as I am
So why the change of plan
Now what am I supposed to do
Please stop your tears now baby
You know that gets me all confused
You don't need to cry
Don't I always try
All you want, have I ever refused
So I don't get it


What do you want
What do you need
What should I change
How should I be

What's going on
What's different now
Have I done something wrong somehow
What do you want


Nobody said that it's all roses
Sometimes we ache and don't know why
Come on now, walk with me
Come on and talk to me
I can't help if you don't try
We all want our loved ones to be perfect
But I can't be something I'm not
Hold on to your ideal
But don't forget what's real
And try to realize just what you've got
Now tell me

What do you want
What do you need...

Sometimes it's hard, I know
And it's not easy to explain
But you must see that
If you trust me that
Surely I can ease the pain
Now tell me

What do you want...etc.

Thanks &mdash 05/09/08 - 05:02:16 AM
I'm really happy you like the song. It's the first recording for donkey's years and I'm still not too wild about the voice as I don't have an i-mic yet for my microphone so it was just the inbuilt mac mike. Still, lots of fun to mess around with Garage Band. Hope to have more stuff for you to hear soon. meantime I listened to Dee's song. I liked it. Is that your baby on the photo or is it you in your beginning years?
Best wishes,
Rich

Hello &mdash 05/12/08 - 05:16:06 AM

Hi again. I am sorry I found you also in my favourites.

But although its your first recording for years. Its brilliant
I am soo looking forward to getting to know you for tips and tricks also.
And as a person too :)

I have a song on my song page called the Barretok Blues that I tried singing very first attempt at singing in public. I have just yesterday recorded another or tried to -
for Bob Rodgers he is an excellent guitarist.
called I woke up last night and saw you weeping.

I just made the lyrics up as I went along and that was it really.

I was in agony with 'Gum Disease' as well. But I had taken some pain killers so it was not so bad. I get it every time I try to learn my Harp. (Harmonica)
think I am allergic to the metal and I also have Guitar that I am still in the process of learnng to play.
Anyhow the Baby Picture is of one of my mate's childen now grown up.
Called Nathan.

Good Luck Richard.

Oh by the way - We had really nice guy called Droop here with us at Mj's
Paul Davis who was trying to make a come back. I had no idea that he too was famous one time. And He suddenly died I felt devastated and composed a song for him called Droop it shook me up. He was the sweetest person you could ever wish to meet. I had no idea that he was famous until he died.
of a ' Heart Attack' suddenly his last comment was on my song called Sunbeem. Did you know him at all ?

Ok thats it for now.

Peace Dee xx

I have to agree &mdash 05/12/08 - 06:33:59 AM
with Dee - you have an excellent voice... and it sounds pretty good considering your using the built-in mic. This is a very nicely mixed song - sounds like you're mastering Garageband very well. Very pro indeed.

Welcome to MacJams

Well... &mdash 05/22/08 - 06:52:01 PM
This may be your first attempt at Garageband, but clearly not the first at singing, song writing and production. Very professional track! I've been amazed at recordings done on the pinhole mic before but you clearly take it to the maximum here!

This genre of music is one that I don't listen to all that much, but I found myself really liking this track. Again, a very professional track.

Oh, and welcome to MacJams too!
