https://soundcloud.com/bruce-boome/the-hauntingA song about a ghost obsessed by a living woman. Written many years ago, but thanks to BIAB for giving me the means to realize it. Lyric I wandered lonely as a cloud All wrapped up in my silver shroud I shake my chains and walk through walls But you don't even notice me Though scaring you's not my intention I just want your full attention But you don't have the psychic gift to feel me reaching out to you All I have's frustration No communication just this sweet obsession with complete possession Haunting my soul If only you'd attend a seance With a medium's conveyance I could make my presence known And you would see there's no escape Though I must be circumstantial 'Cause, of course, I'm insubstantial One day I will find a way To stop you seeing right through me With this burning passion In my ghostly fashion I want you entirely Only you inspire me Haunting my soul One day when your life is through You'll come to me and then we two Can walk eternity together' never more to groan alone For forever I will stay And you will never get away My life (if you can call it that) Can never, ever reach an end There's no escape from me. 519: Bass Electric, Pop half notes (only during 5th verse) 2495: Piano, Electric, Held Chords Real Drums = Grunge 1a 1840: Synth pad, Pop Modern Groove Ev16 1681: Guitar 12 String Acoustic Fingerstyle 2364: Synth, Electro Flutes 2566: Horn Section Melodic Old World 2 Beat Cort 5 string bass, Fender American Standard through Line6 Toneport Daw, Sonar X1, Rx64 Percussion strip, Vx64 Vocal strip. Sonitas reverb and compression, Pro Channel EQ and compression, Loudmax limiter

Bruce,
Excellent resurrection! Arrangement and performance A+
I liked it a lot!
P.S. I think your drums & bass are peaking a little.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.

Thanks for the feedback, Misha. I couldn't see peaking on the meters, and, you know, old ears.I'll take a closer listen.

Intro reminded me of Madness.
This is good fun and well done.
LOTS of sibilant essing though.
Cool.
Tremendous melody.

Thanks. I had the de-esser on full, I had a performance, so didn't want to do it again. Glad you liked it.

There's no escaping from your clever words [I'm an alliteration freak], Bruce. Cool tune. If you could include lyrics in your posts...

Hi Bruce,
This is a very nice song (to my opinion)
What a clever, but funny tale you are singing there. I could almost see it in front of me.
"I shake my chains and walk through walls
But you don't even notice me"
Very good
And the instruments fit very well in this haumnting scene
One little 'but': I think you have to trim your song from 3:07 min. till the end. Nothing can be heard, or maybe not with my ears,
Hans

Very clever lyrics & backing tracks...
I especially liked the lines
With this burning passion
In my ghostly fashion
I want you entirely
Only you inspire me
Goth perhaps?
A superb job indeed...
And I really enjoyed the listen!

Bruce, I loved the lyrics on this one. What a hoot! I also liked your vocal, instrumentation, and mix.
You did an excellent job on this.

Hi Bruce,
This appealed to me greatly.
Your lyrics take the listener on a wonderful journey. I love the way that you've used words that amplify the notion of mediums, fortune telling, hauntings, etc. -- it's such an excellent use of connotation.
I'm a fan!
All the best,
Noel
