So, I just bought the new Xtra styles for $29 while on a 2 day pit stop before heading to NYC. It said they were 164 pre-mixed and pre-engineered styles ready to go, so I thought that was a good deal and I would take one for a spin. https://soundcloud.com/david-snyder-gigs/sanctuaryI purposefully did not try to get fancy because I wanted to see how they would sound all by themselves without throwing in a bunch of extra stuff. So this is a simple song, but I hope you like it. I highly recommend those Xtra Styles. They are killer. Just like they said, they are practically pre-engineered and ready to go, minus whatever tweaks you want to give. This is a singer songwriter style called ANCHOR. Sanctuary By David Snyder V1 Sometimes you win Sometimes you lose you never get a chance to choose then you read the front page news and you could say to yourself what’s the use CH 1: So I’m glad you’ve been My sanctuary in the storm Yeah the world is cold as money baby But you’re the fire that keeps me warm V2 Sometimes the world Will break your heart Sometimes love rips you all apart You look overboard, searching for clues tangled up in the fishnet you see the lost and the confused CH 2: So I’m glad you’ve been My sanctuary in the storm I pull up my anchor Even though my sails are torn And I sail towards the shoreline And I fall into your arms Yes you’ve always been my sanctuary in the storm Break: Ooooooh Ch 3 Yes you’ve always been My sanctuary in the storm And I sail towards the shoreline And I fall in to your arms Yes you’ve always been my sanctuary in the storm Yes you’ve always been my sanctuary in the storm All music and lyrics copyright 2016 by David Snyder ****** Song Summary ************* Title: Sanctuary File:Sanctuary.SGU Key=D , Tempo 65, Length (m:s)=4:11 No intro. 64 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 64.

David, Nice write, lyrics are well conceived with a melody that compliments them perfectly. The production sounds good. I'll have to check out the new Xtra styles. Tom

David,
I like the tenderness of your vocals on this.
The extended 2nd chorus has my favourite lines:
I pull up my anchor
Even though my sails are torn
and those oohs are just right....I wanted to hear more!
I think you`ve convinced me the new styles are a good buy.
Robert

Thanks Bob! You will love those Xtra styles if you don't already have them. Some of the singer songwriters ones are right up your alley with the current masterieces you are writing that production style you are cultivating. You will absolutely love them. Trust me.

Sometimes you win sometimes you lose! Isn't that just true. Now if only we can get the winning to outweigh the losing. Nice song. Loved the laid back vocal.
