Description : This song has kind of an Allman Brothers feel to it, with the Esus, E chords at the start. Never wrote the lyrics down for a long time and would just make up verses as I went along. finally wrote down a couple of the verses but only did one here. Very religious song. I hope you enjoy.
God bless,
Blair

Spaced out and nice sounding. I absolutely, absolutely love the Guitars on this (especially that secondary riff that kicks in after a bit). The vocal melody was nice, but I couldn't really make out what you were saying. It could just be my speakers though, I dunno (shrugs). The crackles I heard, if intentionally placed (and not coming from my speakers, gasps) make it sound old timey (like being played from a phonegraph). Oh, and now that ya have Magix you can go and mess with the effects do make the whole song sound like it's being played from a super old record. Anywho, awesom track mate. Later on!
Nice.
Very nice.
This is a great idea with a beautiful spirit.
I love the progression and the melody is comforting.
As I do artist development, I imagine this piece being played by an ensemble. Bo Diddley toms driving the rhythm. Not overbearing mind you, just chugging away in a support role. This song lends itself to so many ideas like that. I give you bonus points for documenting and sharing. Nice song....very nice.

Thanks for the kind words. I was playing this last week at a place where I do a 2 hour set every other week. A friend was playing lead for me and his first time hearing it he did a Allman Bro.s style lead to it that matched it perfectly. Had someone doing OK but not great drums. And someone else laying down a nice bass line. It's one of my favorite songs.

Hi Blair,
Nice song you have here. Haven't listened to any of your songs in awhile. The rhythm you have in this song sounds like a 'Bo Diddley' style...which just happens to be in my next song I am almost finished with.
Anyway, good song as I said. I'll have to listen to more of your nice tunes.

This song helps me to want to get back to worshipping with just vocals and acoustic guitar again. Besides some echo on the guitar and playing it at a slower tempo, see if you can get your hands on a 12 string guitar.
simple and effective songwriting and essential message........
you should put a little bit reverb on the rhythm guitar.....would fit better to your voice .....maybe
btw. your avatar.....wow,excellent
peace,PC
Thanks. Your right I need to go back and add some reverb to the guitar. I did with Rain and like the sound it has. I used reverb and chorus. found that avatar looking for pictures of ugly cats. Love it. Besides the foot pedal I think he has an ash tray and a beer.
interesting..if you slow the tempo a bit and change the solo to an electric distorted...then i can imagine a marilyn manson vocal type performance on it..it's a good thing because it means the song is great in a way that allows different versions..and ofcourse industrial gothic is my influence.
It's always amazing to hear what others compare a song too. When I posted "Out in the Storm" on another site someone compared that to "Nothing Else Matters" by Metallica. Glad you liked it.
Hey mate...nice modulation in your voice..love that phasey guitar....You know I remember you saying how you'd been ridiculed at another site for your beliefs...I don't think your ever going to have that issue here..this place is civilised in that regard...so while the description of your song is true I don't think it warrants the disclaimer...In fact more power to you for singing about something that has real meaning to you..the more the merrier...cheers planet
Thanks for the kind words. I enjoy singing that song a lot. And I believe you're right. I should just state that it's a religious song and leave it at that.
Very nice killer lyrics to me! this sounded like Roy orbison himself impressive couldn't get enough of it!
might have to cover this one in church!...........JG
Thanks, as always for the kind words. My next avatar may be a picture of my wife and me with the Elvis impersonator she hired for my 50th birthday party.

Description : After 6 months, i turned into Sister Nancy and bam bam bam my plants grew like my inspiration. i try to get better with my mixes. Im feeling like i never find my eq balance on vox.
Description : I wrote this song about 25 years ago; a feel good Christmas song of my own.
Using 3 part harmonies during the verse and 5 part harmonies during the chorus; 2 and 3 part acoustic guitar harmonies during the "solo".
I am performing all except for Apple drum loops.
Done in the style of Country.
Description : Gospel track sung by Patricia Edwards.I had remixed this with a verse by Lacrae. I pulled the verse but thought to upload the track anyhow. Maybe some Looper will drop a verse in it. Feel free to use on the condition to drop me a link and respect Patricia's, no commercial use clause.
Description : This hymn, (also known as the Navy Hymn), was my wife’s grandmother’s favourite hymn. Wasn’t familiar with it. The Wikipedia article had an arrangement which I used for this track. Harmony is not my work, but the orchestration is. Made the track more as an exercise in exploring harmony, counterpoint, and orchestration. I realize this is not anything close to the norm of tracks here on Looperman, but it’s always good to stir things up a bit, right?
Description : Two things in my life that i learned from my grandmother and father is, don't let what people say about you be true and always stay faithful and humble, regardless how you feel and always be honest and if you cant feel a thing or situation, never stick your nose in it or my a opinion on it, im different!! back to what i know.
Description : This was my first "serious" experiment in song arrangement. It is based on the vocal acapella by my good friend Patrick Victor. He performed this song in his megachurch to a warm reception.
Note, I'm not as pious as him :)
Very nice.
