Description:
I didn't procrastinate.

Some of you commented that the song might sound a bit better with fills. So, here's what I came up with.

I really do appreciate the constructive criticism that you give me. That's one of the main reasons that I post my songs here. The other main reason is pure fun.

Let me know what you think of the re-mix.

Dave

Lyrics:
A Little Bit Sunny

I don’t remember what you recall
It don’t matter at all
It just proves that I’m wrong

And don’t you find it a little bit odd
To know what I sense
It makes no difference
Because

Ah, it’s a little bit sunny outside, today
Ah, it’s a little bit sunny outside, today

And when you whisper louder in time
You will not see the sign
‘cause you’re not taking mine

Winding down, but don’t leave so fast
You don’t forget the past
We cry ‘cause we laugh

Ah, it’s a little bit sunny outside, today
Ah, it’s a little bit sunny outside, today

I have the sight, but I know I just might
Hide in my room for the rest of my life
Closing the door, I think there is more
Sound in the morning, it’s hard to ignore

Sun in the morning, I should take the warning
Illusions I see, a blind mystery
Working his feelings, I stare at the ceiling
Thinking of you thinking of me
Thinking of you thinking of me

If you like that and have some time. Please, check out some of my older posts.

I think you'll like them. Maybe, on a rainy day.

And thanks,

old stuff &mdash 10/08/08 - 01:38:57 PM
I'm definitely going to check out older stuff from you and my other favourite macjammers. Unfortunately I get time to check out about 5% of the new stuff coming in! I like to listen to the whole song when I click on one.

Maybe I'll download more and make CD's for the drive to work... yeah!

Nicely Tweaked &mdash 10/08/08 - 02:07:42 AM
I'm glad this is just a subtle re-mix as the original was great anyway. The drums are more interesting on this version but as they're not too forward in the mix they don't detract from the other parts of the song.

Thumbs up then David!

Tweaked &mdash 10/08/08 - 09:24:07 AM
I'm glad I didn't play around with it too much, as I liked the original. But, I must agree the drums were a lit on the boring side.

Thanks Peter,

Dave

That was the point of the song. To get in your head.
And to have some fun.

Thanks,

You know... &mdash 10/08/08 - 05:08:31 PM
...you make some great chord choices. Unexpected and very effective at getting the "point" across.

Nice soundscape, David...

nice &mdash 10/12/08 - 07:06:21 AM
Nice job.. The only thing I could add ...is more harmonies.
bring some bass up. Well written!!! I dont think I heard this the first time around. Im glad I did this time!

[ Reply to This ]
Thanks &mdash 10/15/08 - 04:30:08 AM
What do you listen on? The bass seems fine, if not too loud, on my speakers.

That's the tricky thing, right?

I see what you mean regarding harmonies. That's what you get when you do everything yourself. I need you guys to bounce ideas off.

Thanks,

Dave

Welly welly then &mdash 10/14/08 - 08:27:30 PM
I enjoyed this the first time around the fills fill it but either way to me its a great song!

Thanks EB &mdash 10/15/08 - 04:25:55 AM
Thanks for taking another listen. I don't usually re-post, but so many recommended that I touch it up.

Glad you liked both versions.

Didn't hear the original... &mdash 10/15/08 - 04:44:04 AM
...but will go and check out. This is lovely though. really nice, flowing groove - and your vocals are spot on - just enough wobble in there to make it human, but some lovely harmonies on the b.vox.

The whole thing has an 80's vibe to it - which is nice. The guitars bring back many memories of slightly introverted gothy 80's bands. No bad thing. there's some interesting chord progressions going on in there as well, I think? Sounds good whatever you're doing -

Really enjoyed this -

Phil

Hey Phil &mdash 10/16/08 - 09:10:56 AM

At odds &mdash 11/18/08 - 07:51:11 AM
The lyrics are certainly optimistic; the music is decidedly darker in a Syd-is-coming-unhinged-way. I like the collision of the two, and find myself enjoying that I don't know whether I should be chipper....... or if it's time to fire up the wood chipper.

[ Reply to This ]
I like songs that... &mdash 11/19/08 - 07:03:07 AM
.. contradict. Happy lyrics+ dark music= lavalamp

Or the other way around.

Thanks for hitting this. Glad you liked it.
