Hello all, my name is Henry O'Farrell and I'm a 16 year old singer song writer.

This song is entitled shadows and silhouettes. It's about a couple, where the man doesn't want to say that he loves her, but the women is also chasing someone else in love, hence she's casing shadows and silhouettes.

The lyrics are:

Open up your eyes and shout, what life's all about
Never have I known so much to call your phone
And I'll wait for weeks and days I pray this is just a phase
As the sun shines through the glass I stare at you in class

Like a guitar that can't be strum an everlasting sun that's almost done
I know that you know everything I felt a while ago
Sometimes I just sit here wishing I would disappear
But I know if I did, I'd miss you I'd miss your smile

Please just hear what I have to say
Chasing shadows and silouetts
We've got to make it on our own
Stop following other peoples footstep
Oooooooooooooo
shadows silouetts

Although I want to say I know you won't feel the same way
Shattered hearts and broken love I try to save you from what's above
Caught in this hurricane I know you'd save me knew you came
Although the storm got worse we found a way to release our curse

Please just hear what I have to say
Chasing shadows and silouetts
We've got to make it on our own
Stop following other peoples footstep
Oooooooooooooo
Chasing shadows and silouetts
Following other people's footsteps

Oooooooooooooo
Sing ooo woh sing with me ho ho
Singing our whole life away

Singing our whole life away
Once again

I hope you like it!!

Hi Henry. I will be totally honest with you.

1. I Really like this song. You have thought about structure, tempo and lyrics

2. You have great rhythm and attitude and confidence. You are a natural on that score. Keep it going 

3. Ok my only constructive comment and please ignore it if you want but I think that you are trying to sound like Ed Sheeran. (Have I got that right ? as I never listen to that sort of stuff) Easy for me to say that as I always wanted to sing like Lennon. Keep it up bro  so encouraging that there is talent like yours out there

Hi Henry,

That intro was fantastic...thoroughly enjoyed watching that! Would have been interesting to have that continue through the song but might be too difficult to do?

I thought this song had a strong Passenger vibe...which for me, is a good thing...I'm a huge fan of his!

Good stuff...keep it up!
