"Waiting For Love"

The news reflects a lot of lost people who seem, in their life, to be still "Waiting For Love". Violence and hate seem to be their norm and dysfunction is their everyday lifestyle. Maybe they grew up in a deviant and dysfunctional home and childhood surrounding and so they don't know any better. They may have lacked the parental love that every child on the planet deserves, but many never get, based on their environment in which they grew up in.
 
This piece I have been working on for awhile now and seems to reflect this lack of a loving relationship and their cry of "Waiting for Love". I do hope you will enjoy how I put this arrangement together and the message I am trying to convey through it. It may even reflect some of our emotions that we deal with from time to time, and for some on a daily basis. There is much pain and suffering in this world, but love fulfills all things.
 
As usual, all comments are always welcomed. Enjoy!

Lynn,
 
Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are always important to me. As for trying to better peoples lives, I can't do that for anyone, I can only hopefully point them to the door, they have to open it themselves, and there is no credit there for me, but there is One who gets all the credit when the door is opened. But, thank you for you most gracious thoughts, I'm good and pleased to serve.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Grup, Thanks for listening and for your nice comments, they are much appreciated. Best wishes to you as well.

Your words give us all much to think about... our prayers should include those sad souls "Waiting For Love"...
 
another excellent arrangement & production... very good work John...

Robbie, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are always welcomed and appreciated, good and bad. We all have faults, especially me, but this is a forum where people can get together and share their musical experiences, live or sampled and enjoy each others creativity and get and give advice, based on what they are hearing and their experiences. So, again, thank you.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Starise, Thank you for listening and for your comments, they are much appreciated and glad you enjoyed this piece. A lot of my work comes to me through messages, so I hope the music conveys that message. Thanks again.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Bob, Thanks for taking the time to listen and for commenting on this piece. Glad you enjoyed it. It was a good piece to construct and properly mix to give it a quality sound. I guess I chose the right samples and loops for this one. I only preformed the mouse on this one. but thanks for thinking that I preformed on this musically myself.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

Walt, Thanks for listening and for the nice comments, they are much appreciated. I think you got the vibe just right in your comment, kind of a refreshening while waiting for love.

I would say usual human dysfunctions usually stem from a poor child hood environment whatever that may be.
 
This is very well produced, kept interest for a non-vocal track. The mood does certainly seem to emulate a mood of in "no mans land in wait of something".
 
Cymbals although in the right places stuck out to be pretty fake at times if you want someone to nitpick.
 
Well done,

Great.  Usually I'm loathe to describe emotion to music (as opposed to songs), but this is quite evocative.  Great writing - and sometimes we don't need no stinking words.
 
Production and arrangement first class.  One can hear everything and everything seems to have a place.  My only question is the bongo/perc track panned so far to the left.  I understand balancing the piano part (nicely played, that), but personally I would have centered it a bit more.  Or maybe it is just listening on these computer speakers.  The right channel is back against a wall, while the left is placed right before an open corner - unless you count the snake cage.
 
One final thought - the end kind of fizzles instead of sizzles.  But I'm nitpicking and looking for things since it is such a beautiful piece.  And I don't ususally appreciate "pretty" music, tho I'm getting better.

Warren, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they are much appreciated. Not sure we need the gov't telling us how and when to love our children. In parenting, that should be an automatic. Glad you enjoyed the bulk of the piece.
 
Peace and Blessings, John

It should be automatic but is far from it for many kids.The breakdown of the family and values is one of the reasons for our decline in the world.  That breakdown leads to all of the other junk.  Enough from me.  You touched my heart, obviously.  As far as the gov't, that was tongue in cheek.  I think they should fix the roads and protect our nation and that would do it for me.  We'll handle the rest!    Peace and blessings to you also!

John, this is a very beautiful piece. You do great work sir. And thank you for being a bold witness in this forum. My witnessing tends to be in the lyrics of my songs(obviously not the silly ones), but you lay it right out there every day in this forum. Just wanted you to know that I really look up to you for that. Keep those great arrangements coming!
