Howdy y'all.
Finally, I'm getting time to finish/make tunes of an evening. I'm getting rough vocals on laptop mic for various tracks in readiness for a recording bonanza in the new year - unless my family are able to offer support so i can get things done before. Heres hoping.......!!!! If only they had the same favourite pastime, they'd understand...!!! Lol.
Hope all's really grand with you guys. I'll catch up some reviewing next.

WINDS OF CHANGE
https://soundcloud.com/cazrolina-1/winds-of-change-demo-wip-v2-11-10-2017-0026ANY/ALL THOUGHTS WANTED
All critiques/ideas welcome.
- Im looking for a better line with the xxxx's. I recorded something about being out all night, but does the frustration line work?? Any better ideas?
- Bongo drums, vocal and piano very roughly laid down just with the laptop. I'll tighten these up, then i plan a key change with another chorus and to sample a wind chime sound. How exciting
Cheers all cx
LYRICS
heavens falling apart
dragging feet from the start
yeah
we’re self tied up and bound
for the lost and found
always flayling around
and messing about
and never paying attention
and never learning
always yearning
always running around
and * d*cking about
xxx?? and filled right up with frustration / and brimming full of frustration / filled to the brim with frustration xxx?
and/but always yearning
CH
for the winds of change
(to) blow on through
(blow on through)
the winds of change
blow on through
then i saw you
change starts with you
* "D#cking about" is English urban slang: To do absolutely nothing constructive and be completely useless to the point where it can aggravate others, who then view the individual as being an idiot or d*ck.
INSPIRATION
I was sitting on a swing in the park with my daughter, feeling a bit frustrated with the general state of me/my house but also society in general, the crazy worldwide weather and events we're having worldwide. I want it to be so much better. We're clever enough to change things, aren't we!?!? Often things get worse before they get better, but I wrote a VERY dark poem last month about society being caged (I'll stick it in lyrics another time), then was pondering this on the swings and a really strong gust of wind blew through the park and gave me some further inspiration, and hence this track appeared.
