Description : A couple of years ago a few of us started going to the "Safe House" down town Atlanta. I would do praise and worship and then my partner would preach. Then we would feed 100 to 200 homeless people. I wrote this song and they liked it a lot. Even in the jail they like it. Something about the concept of I've seen better days. I had a long day today, with a funeral and shopping to cook breakfast for about 40 people tomorrow. I just needed to unwind and record something. I've been wanting to post this song for a while too. I'm also working on my recording skills too. To try to get better before I record a couple of things for some of my friends on looperman.
I hope you like it.

I hear what your saying mate...in some ways society is turning it's attention on the plight of disadvantaged people..but it's a near hopeless situation when the basic tenements of physics are being undermined by one thing....Money flows uphill.
An emotive chill song..great work....planet
While I may not have gone through everything I write about. I've been close enough to it. I've also delt with the people that are there. And for the most part they are really good people. The sad part is that most people judge people with mental problems like they aren't legitamite and that the person should just pull themself together. If I have cancer you'll feel sorry for me but if I'm depressed or have an anziaty problem I should just suck it up.
That's a great song Blair. Even though it is a sad subject, when listening to your song, people get to believe again that there is light at the end of tunnel... Nice one. I like song with a more serious note.
Cheers S.
Thanks a lot. The music is upbeat because even though it says I've seen better days. It's not said like we don't still have hope and believe that better days can come again. Beside last chorus is saying "I'm seeing better days"
Very nice track,i don't listen music like this,but this is very nice,i like it...The acoustic guitar is very good...The vocal just fits with it...Keep it up...Make some more like this...Peace
In my city there is so much homeless,homeless kids beg for money,when i see a kid 5,6 years old beg for money i,i can't descripe that goes thru me...
Thanks for listening. It always tares us up too. We'll see a homeless father or mother with a child. The most important thing to remember is that these are human beings and need to be treated with respect.
that's all it needs: a guitar, a voice, and someone who really has to say something ... perfect!!
and if I feel that someone honestly tries to speak out of his heart, then I don't care about recording quality, production techniques or skills and things like that ...
and one more thing: no matter what good or bad things happened to me in the past, I always think that the better days are yet to come .... but I know what you're speaking about ...
I like your music Blair for the simple fact that I always get a clear sense of your strong and loving spirit. That is an element that no amount of technology and fancy effects can give a song or a singer. Just keep doing what your doing, in music and in life, because you are obviously on a good path.
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?

I really love the way this was recorded. It has that quality that reflects it's humble roots. Lates!
