Dutchbeat:
Hi songwriters

Here is a new song and video we made together with Liam from Neverwas.
So his vocals where recorded in Nothern-Ireland and then mixed together with music and vocals from Mrs. DB in the Netherlands.

hope you want to give it a listen and a look

Kafla:
This is really , really good DutchBeat and Liam

Quality synths over a very enjoyable melody and both singers are sounding very good

I love the image of you driving along , bopping to the beat  ;D

It's just quality all round  :D

Dutchbeat:
Thanks Kafla!

i forgot to post the lyrics..here they are:

Mirror image
(lyrics: Liam)

Looking in the mirror
I'm surprised at what I see
The man looking back at me
Isn’t who I want to be
(at all)

Looking in the mirror
I see somebody elses face
The girl I used to be
Is gone without a trace
(of love)

----------------------
chorus (both singing):

Yet, we can't live life in the past
but we can be together
forever
in this day

Why couldn't we be happy?
...together
Who cares what people say?
We could live
in this day

-----------------------

Why didn't someone warn us
That life could be so cruel
It promises so much
Then makes you look just like a fool

Looking in the mirror
dreams turn to regret
You can't recall the good times
And yet you can't forget


-------------------------------
chorus (both singing)

Yet, we can't live life in the past
but we can be
together
forever
in this day

Why couldn't we be happy?
...together
Who cares what people say?
We could live
in this day

------------------------
bridge (Liam first):

That shy and akward boy
Must be me, in there, somewhere
That shy and akward boy
Now a man that doesn't care.

(mrs. DB takes over):

She used to be so happy
Shed lived to love and smile
That shy and akward girl
Has been missing for a while....

------------------------------

Yet, we can't live life in the past
but we can be
together
forever
in this day

Why couldn't we be happy?
...together
Who cares what people say?
We could live
in this day

Hi Dutchbeat,

You've got that retro synth style of writing nailed!  I've listened to this recording several times now at it gets better each time.  Congratulations also to Liam and Mrs Dutchbeat, together you've created a fine song!

Hi,

Like the 80's feel. Human League-esque. Nice video. Good vocal blend. Nice melody. Overall good tune.
