Hi, guys ! I admit having been busy doing nothing ! That is the privilege of being a pensioner ? What have I done.....exactly nuthin´except watching The Swimming World Championships in Barcelona, mornings and evenings !! The summer here is at it´s highest peak and we have had really hot weather over here ! (I won´t complain, though, as our fall and winters are truly long, dark and mostly cold, so...) In anticipation of our frosty fall and winter I did manage to put this little tune together ! http://app.box.com/s/hy9683vpwmxn3ixohy6e This version has a three voiced ending http://app.box.com/s/djeldaj9541tpqbil1l7The BIAB style used was Bolero 2 and recorded thru zoom to Mixcraft on my laptop. Lyrics: FALL (Music and Lyrics: Dani) 1.I, recall Summer´s almost gone away soon fall will come to my door I´m waitin´, so patiently waitin (for) 2.Fall, love you fall soon you´ll be passin´by this way please, bring your snow to my floor for skiing and skating and playing all around Ref: Wanna get out in the crispy air swirlin´ around on ice, so fair 3.Fall, Oh, my fall Blue is your sky and seldom gray hey, wanna crave you for more of freezin´ and snowin´ over sea and frosty ground Ref: Wanna get out in the crispy air swirlin´ around on ice, so fair

Dani,
A love song to Fall... that's an interesting idea! Your lyric flows nicely. Your melody is very, very nice. The vocal and keyboard are nicely recorded. Your backing tracks (rhythm) are difficult to hear - they are mixed so low. If you brought that bossa drum up it would make this dance!

Hi Dani, Wow! This is really adventurous in many ways. I really like the key changes. To my way of thinking, nothing lifts a song quite like a key change. Some of the chords you use in your progression are unusual choices but they work well. I also like the idea of writing "a love song to fall" (to quote Floyd). Seems to me that you're really stretching your songwriting wings these days! Best wishes, Noel

Hi Dani,
what a crazy idea to write a lovesong for something you call "truly long, dark and mostly cold". Still enjoyed listening while enjoying the summer.

Hi Guenter !
and thank you for your kind words ! I feel I have to explain a little closer ! Fall up here, especially if the sea has frozen and before there has been too much snowing can be a real treat. Can you imagine yourself skating on the surface of the ocean between isles and islands in our super beautiful unbeaten archipelago ? Over your head a clear blue sky and a sun laying quite low over the horizon coloring up the few clouds in all rainbow colours ? You have to take my word for it ! I have lived through this kind of weather so I just had to depict it somehow ! When the fall goes over to winter the snow breaks the darkness with it´s whiteness and it can be cool to take a night skiing trip in the moonlight !:) But you are right of course, the weather can be quite different from that too !!!
Cheers Dani

Hi Dani
Really enjoyed listening. I thought the choice of style was quite interesting and worked well with the song.
And great lyrics, quite nostalgic.
Kind regards

Hi, Trevor !
I am glad you felt nostalgic when listening to this little tune. I tried to catch a melancholic mood with the dim chords and hopefully they did the job ?
Cheers Dani

Hi, guys ! I admit having been busy doing nothing ! That is the privilege of being a pensioner ? Looking forward to the day when I can say this. I like the idea of singing to the long, dark winter. Keep doing nothing!

Well, being in the midst of the most brutal summer in my area since 1882 your song was a real breath of fresh air. Thanks for the reminder....hope springs eternal. Fine job.
