I'll Never Get Over Loving You               https://soundcloud.com/marriannasongs
Some time ago I uploaded this song on Soundcloud. It was quite new to listen to again as I hadn't thought about it much after it was first recorded. I thought it was just a mediocre song which I enjoyed arranging to have the harmonies included then forgot about it in time. Still, it was nice to get some 'likes' when I posted the track but they haven't all shown up.

I'll Never Get Over Loving You  

It won't be easy                            
Wouldn't be right
Wouldn't be happy
If we're parting tonight

What would I do
If I'm feeling alone
Do I switch off and turn off
Do I reach for the phone

Chorus
I'll never get over the love we had
I'll never get over loving you
Will the rest of our lives
Be just one sad affair
No, I'll never get over loving you

The day that I met you
You were the one
Familiar warm feelings
Like the heat of the sun

But what do I say
When our love-song is played
Do I switch off and turn off
Or call you and say

Chorus
I'll never get over the love we had
I'll never get over loving you
Will the rest of our lives
Be just one sad affair
No, I'll never get over loving you

Will the rest of our lives
Be just one sad affair
Cos I'll never get over loving you
Loving you, loving you
Loving you
I'll never get over loving you   (c) www.marianheawood.com

Hi Marrianna,

I don't have much to say, really. The lyric seems pretty polished to me. Wherever there was a difference of words between the sung version and the printed version, I always preferred the sung version. The lyric and melody go together very well.

I don't crit production because I can't hear all the little nuances others apparently can. I did notice how nice and clean the singer enunciated, which I appreciate.

Those are my opinions, for whatever they're worth. Nice work!

Hi!

You write that you think your song is mediocre
and frankly I can agree that it doesn't leave that
much trace in my memory.
I think it's all about the chorus. It sounds more
like a verse from another song or an alternative
verse to your song.

The lyrics also haven't got that much character.
There is too little tension in the story imo. Nothing
to drive my interest on to the next verse.

It's hard to write about love. It takes real hard work
to put strong emotions into words that truly describe
those feelings and not fall back on cliches. (Not said
you did so). You've made a good attempt at it.

Keep writing n recording. I look forward to another song
in 13 days.

Hello Marrianna, this a really professional production.  I didn't really connect with the lyrics when I read them before listening to the song.  However, the melody is good. It's clear that a great deal of time has been dedicated to the production.  This song has a real 80's feel.  The lyrics are straight forward but that's fine - they are carried along along by  a very accesible and at times memorable melody with a  fine chord progression. The song length is  ideal. Your song breezes in and out, making a brief apoearance. It leaves the listener wanting a little more - that's never a bad thing.  I think that I would have preferred electric bass and not fretless which I think dates the song.    I quite enjoyed listening.  Well done!

Hi Marianna. Good to see you posting this. Had a couple of listens and as already commented it sounds polished and 80s. I like the way it hangs on a note before carrying on. Must admit, I prefer things to be a bit darker and noisier and less clean, but that's just my personal preference and shouldn't really be seen as a criticism. The song comes in at just under 3 minutes so there's space for a middle which might push the song up a notch, perhaps a change of sounds and a higher key to grab the attention...? But just my own ideas. Hope to hear more from you soon.

Hi Marianna. Love songs eh ! Tricky to write. I like your melody and arrangement and the ambience you capture

I had difficulty placing where a song like this "fits" so I found it difficult to "connect" with

It had the feeling of a "musical" number to me but the guitars felt a little heavy for this genre in places

Overall though the song had a really nice feeling to it
