Aaaah Spring... The birds are tweeting, the bees are buzzing, and Ed is coming out of his cave to sing a song about luuuv.
If you don't know about it, there are 2 versions of this song, by Roberta Flack, and by D'Angelo.
Just a wonderful song, the chord progression is so refreshing, there is one A13 and a D9 that I particularly like, the melody don't miss out on touching that 9 and that 13, the voice leading has poetry.
It's been a few days now that I've been attempting to record the song, and finally I got it right today, I am happy.
The buzzard landed on that tree, and I knew it was the signal to record.
He watched me for a while, and flew off without a noise.
The cat is enjoying her cat life, I almost felt bad to take her out of the seat, but timing is everything, there is always a short window of opportunity where you are excited enough to sing the song, but not bored with it yet.
Capturing a good performance...Well...It's hard to always deliver on camera, to emulate the "live" feeling, I also think that feeding off an audience is a big part of music.
I haven't done a gig for a very long time. Does it mean I am not a musician anymore? Should I proclaim myself retired? I am still writing songs though, and practicing daily, so that is something at least.
Strollin' in the park
Watchin' winter turn to spring
Walkin' in the dark
Watchin' lovers do their thing
That's the time I feel like making love to you
That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
When you talk to me
When you're moanin? sweet and low
When you touch me
And my feelings start to show, show, oh
That's the time I feel like making love to you
That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
That's the time I feel like making love to you
That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
In a restaurant
Holdin' hands by candlelight
Want to touch you
Wantin' you with all my might
That's the time I feel like making love to you
That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
That's the time I feel like making love to you
That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
