Just To Love You More (Remix)

   The same link works..... I made a few new edits.
fixed missed note in beginning..... edit on lyrics, fixed missed vocal thing..... also worked some levels a bit....  OK.... that's it.... it's done. (I think) 


Another quick write experiment with Bishop/Hartley.  

I wrote the core idea and melody and 6 lines of lyric in about 15 minutes and sent it to Pat.  I started recording and worked on it the next day a bit.... laid final vox tweeks and acoustics on it this morning.  A total of just slightly more then 24 hrs start to finish. 

The song is a love song. You might expect to hear this played at a wedding, and very likely the one the bride & groom will slow dance to.

Congrats to Rain! May you both enjoy growing old together. 

Timidi:   Yeah, I can't say I disagree with that assessment.  There was an urgent request for "wedding/love" songs... the kind that might make you gag....  their words exactly.... for a major producer of a new reality TV show... so, that was my offering to that opportunity.... I wanted something that might cause the ladies to get teary eyed.... 


Now watch Karen & Janet chime in that it gags them up too.

Mark.... I was thinking that same thing.... With the right singer, it could become one of those songs that every band who plays weddings comes to hate with a passion..... 

also along the lines of Swinging, Achey Breaky Heart, and wipeout.... 

So I need to find the artist, willing to sell their soul, to record this, so that they, and we, can gag all the way to the bank.....

All I can say is if you play that under some girl's window, you're going to get some!

Well done!

I'm not gagging, but I imagine some would.  :) This is real nice.  I hope it becomes a hit, Herb.  

But if it does, I'll wish I'd played on it.  Although I would have put it over the 24 hour limit!  lol

Thanks Janet..... for not gagging.... we'll have to see about the hit status.... 

Geeare1 ..thanks for the kind words. 

One man's hokey is another man's cool song. 

Since I wrote it.... it's on the cool side.... and will be cooler still if it gets forwarded. 

Hey, Herb,


This is really fantastic, buddy!


Excellent songwriting and arrangement for the classic standard ballad genre, the acoustic guitar sounds rich and textured, and your vocals are perfect for modern crossover country.  It's been proven time and time again, sappy romantic ballads have made many millionaires over the past few decades, and this is really up there with some of the best I've heard. 


Wonderful ballad and great modern sounding mix!
Bob

Well, love songs are hokie, but it's a better world with them.  This is beautifully done.  I wrote songs for  my daughter's and son's weddings.  By the time I had played them hundreds of times I thought they wer mega hokie.  When I played them at the weddings the hoke was gone!  Wonderful job on this, Herb.  Nice production and the vocal is great!

It's a pretty song, I actually have almost the same chord progression on one of mine. You may want to try another singer for this one. I like you as a singer, but this one's not in your wheelhouse IMO.

 Thanks Malcolmb.... I sure hope you're right.

MGH.... 

yep fixed that note.... and a few other things.... hopefully it's better now. 

Scoobie: thanks....yeah I considered that when mixing it.... I listen to all my tunes on my MP3 player to see where they stack up. The vox are not "over the top" loud so I decided to leave them.  

Several of my tunes have been "vox too far up front"  and I have remixed lower. 

Also thanks on the compliment on the lyrics. Pat, the lady I co-write with, is the real force behind the lyrical parts of many of the songs I write. I sent her 6 lines of lyric and she wrote this from that. I have even just sent her an idea for a song and she has come back with some amazing things. 

Not enough can be said for having a good co-writing partner who is in tune with you. 

Glad you enjoyed it Bapu!

ooops.... sorry.... missed commenting on this one.... glad you like the song.... as far as another singer..... well, this was submitted to a TAXI listing with an extremely short turn around time and there wasn't time to call you to sing it for me..... maybe next time. I was actually still writing this lyrically  and had not yet recorded the vocal track and there were less then 3 hrs left until the deadline.  As is often the case in the URGENT REQUESTS FOR A SONG..... with close deadlines, I have to do what I have to do to get it in on time.

Well played and recorded as usual Herb, v ery nice acoustic sound. I can't help thinking it's sailing very close to '..And I Love You So' though..

Have to agree with Robby about the vocal, maybe a lower key would suit you better?
