Hi guys,
Thanks to some excellent feedback here and elsewhere I have made significant changes to this song.
I’ve got rid of the midi piano arps and paid a session pianist to play instead. (an absolute first for me!
I’ve also tried to clean up the mix a bit, so that the vocal sits a bit prettier (well....hopefully prettier!
)
The vocals on this are waaaay wetter than I usually have in my songs and I’ve also used doubling, which I usually avoid. I just like the vibe it seems to bring.
So thanks for all your help and please let me know if anything sticks out/sounds dodgy as I will be releasing this on all platforms in the near future.
Cheers as always
Leo
https://soundcloud.com/leo-b-5/hit-the-ground-runningI see tears fall from her eyes
Says she’s running out of sky
Falling down, falling down
I’ve known her since we were little
A heart so big, but her bones are brittle
She falls so hard
It’s learning how, to hit the ground running
I just pull her close to me
Sometimes there’s no words to speak
Cry it out, cry it out
Trouble in the sky, she takes my hand
I try to break her fall, so she can land
