Where is the Love?
Sitting here scribbling out hoards of Christmas Cards, I thought I might post another song on this Forum. Being that time of the year when we think of others, I have just placed three CDs on Band Camp with all proceeds going to charity. This is one track from those CDs (my new 2016 CD "New Day Dawning") which I hope you like. Sung by Daniella Tarrant, who has been trained as a singer for London West End stage shows. https://lylemusic.bandcamp.com/track/where-is-the-love

Malcolm, this is hauntingly beautiful. The simplicity of the arrangement allows Daniella's lovely voice to shine. She sings with a sensitivity that belies her training (or, maybe because of it). The lyrics are terrific. You are one of the few people here that does Celtic music very well. Keep up the good work!

Lynn - Sincere thanks. So pleased you like it. Daniella is such a talent. My usual singer had decided to take a break and a friend introduced Daniella and three other new singers for my 2016 CD. They are all professional singers with UK national and international reputations - singing my little songs must have been a bit of a comedown for them! But they really do add huge (and much needed!) class to my CD!
kloon - Sincere thanks. So pleased you like it.

Nice track, pleasing vocal, nice sparse arrangement and playing from the guitar, the string support just adds a bit of gloss to the whole.
Thanks for sharing Malcolm.

Malcolm - I always enjoy your compositions - well crafted and performed. Nice vocals (a real Human!). This one could easily be part of a movie soundtrack (a Hallmark movie, not Dawn of the Dead VI).

Mannynyagain - Sincere thanks. So pleased you like it. Yes, a great pleasure to have a real human sing my songs (although I still love Vocaloid Miriam!). As for a movie soundtrack, in my dreams - given the chance, I wouldn't even refuse Dawn of the Dead VI (I just had this dreadful flash vision of a zombie staggering along the road singing "Where is the Love?"! Shudder!).

Maybe in Sean Of The Dead. Either way would be nice though.

Although perhaps I might offer the song for the next Star Wars sequel as Princess Leia's theme song. Let me see ........ "I'm the child of Alderaan, Daughter of Lord Vador, Mistress of Han Solo, yearning to be free .......". I like it! Now if I can just get Adele to sing it, I'm in the money! We can dream!

Hi phil - Sincere thanks, so pleased you like it. I don't know what it is about singers but sometimes you find one that doesn't just sing a song, they live it. Daniella completely owns this song and gives it expression and meaning way beyond my simple composition. She is a huge talent.
