Description : // updated back to orig // UPDATED Dec 21st, 2009 - Dance mix version. Includes the 2nd verse I did but never integrated into the acoustic version, also without any post-session vocal tuning, also includes ALL the lyrics of the first verse (where I had crammed to many words into verse spaces and removed a lot before putting out the acoustic version), not mastered well.
--- the spaces left over after your plans open up in my life
after work we sit by the lake until the night
comes to us cold but the glow of fire feels nice
the black sea out there kisses us with ice

i hold you close
in arms, under blankets, by the fire tonight
feeling warm, and the rain sites on the horizon
the tide of wine and smoke dances in light

tonight i remembered to say
imagine if we'd only one day
to do all the living left in our lives
we'd run to the stars
find one to call ours
and wait out the day and set the sun away

over and over waves from the lake wash over us in the night
it's cold and it's sober and it's hard to wake fore the light
when i'm wet and cold, it's the fire that I keep in my site

i hold you close
your arms around me, we swim towards the fire, through the dark of the night
feel our hearts glowing warm
we pull ourselves up through the tide

oh last night i remembered to know
that outside of it's glow
that the fire still burns for you and me both

we've all our own lakes and fires
all under all the same stars
and from one to the other it's never too far

Wow. This is very cool work, and one I had to listen to twice before knowing what to say. Garage band? Huh. There are some things happening on those strings that really remind me of kalimba (finger piano) sounds - a little twang distortion that's really sweet. This entire track is beautiful, and your vocals work so well with the overall vibe. Faved.

I love your citing of the sweet twangy distortion in the guitar sounds. You've got such an awesome mind. Thank you so much -

I saw that your status said "By The Fire", and after hearing this I can tell it's true. This track has that warmth and sizzle to it. Very cool original work!

Thank you so much for consistently coming into my tracks and the compliments. You might be the coolest most positive guy on this site. We have similar review styles sometimes too - you really get how to foster artistic creation, motivation and encouragement - and you are still honest, and have good advice to give when appropriate. Big cheers S.

Description : A track I did with a friend ages ago. I play the guitar and he sang and wrote the lyrics. The lyrics came mostly from headlines in the newspaper that sunday. Recorded using a crappy old microphone direct into cubase with a few overdubs

Description : There were two separate tracks in work, but who knows why I got tired with them and then decided to merge them (or at least what left from them) into one piece hence they originate out of same musical purpose. No worries...no world war was ment here, except my recent personal one...haha...and you don't want to know about it.:) It's not real etude by any means, yet it's quite alot about practicing...practicing...

Description : Again, another early production from like two years ago. I had a cheap little Yamaha acoustic guitar that I borrowed and mic'd and some congas that were given to me as a birthday present. I used my iPad GarageBand app to record the strings and the big bass drum thingy at the interlude and little electric guitar parts in there too haha. All the vocals were done by myself and my brother throws in some little things here and there with his voice :P Enjoy!
