Love In The Air (SmithC/AndyG/Docmidnite/Drumguy)

[AndyG6508]

I am happy to present a new song from Smithie! He wrote the lyric and the original melody while Henry and I added parts to it.

Smith contributed the lovely vocal, while Henry worked very hard at the production/mix/master adding a wonderful array of guitars, keys and backing vocals.

Then Mark stepped in with a great drums part which really helped the song to take off sonically.

Special thanks to Henry for all his hard work, and for providing a super mix!!

Cheers
Andy

Verse 1
D5                                 DaddedE
I always feel that there is love in the air
D            Bm            A      
Do you recognize it

I always feel that there is hope in despair
D              Bm         A
Would you deny it

Verse2
Love can help you in the strangest moments
Can be your guiding light
Love can help you work out a better quotient
It can make you feel bright

Chorus
            Bm                          G
There is someone somewhere waiting for you
A                                   Bm
Waiting to make you feel happy
            Em                        G
There is always a life that is longing for you
A                             G
Waiting for you to be happy

Verse 3  : repeat verse 1

It can take you out from the plight of your life
When you’re feeling lonely
It can bring back your happiness in the times of strife
Sharing the good times only

[rightonthemark]

not feeling much like spring here in mid-west usa.
we're wondering where our global warming went.
but nonetheless the song sounds great.
and yeah i agree with Tricia - i thought smithc was sounding a bit like benny too.
the overall sound; mix; performances;etc...sounds so clear and full.
great professional sound.
had it cranked up in the car on the way home this morning.

Wow great song a hit, it reminded me of a band called The Courteeners. Not just the vox sound (which was really well sung by all) or the song writing /performance which was flawless, but the mix itself was very professional sounding. I can honestly hear this being played on the radio in my car while driving home from work, especially with Henry's quote in mind.


We have had two nice days here, I actually had forgot how nice it was to feel the sun's heat on my back. Not to sound too melodramatic though, it's just nice to hope that it's not going to rain anymore.....and be warm again? 

[AndyG6508]

Hi Steve,

Really appreciate the nice comment!

I will have to check out the Courteeners, cant say I have heard of them? UK band?

Smith, Henry and Mark were brilliant, and Henry's mix is indeed top drawer.

We got lucky with the weather too, finally!! It's 8-12 degC which is a heat wave

8-12°c Lol,  I know the feeling, if it gets into double figures then its a bonus  

[Paulo]

Nice song and great mix... Cool indeed.

[Zax]

Wow!!  This is a great song!!   

Great performances by all... and sonically very pleasing to listen to.

I thought I was listening to U2 when the intro kicked in (compliment).

Thanks, Frank!
It´s The Edge´s achievment EVER EVER EVER getting connected with rhythmically delayd guitars, but - of course - he wasn´t the first but he squeezed the hell outta this technique
