George

Here are the lyrics

What would you dream
     
What if you could have a dream and make that dream come true
What would you dream?

Would you dream that all our conflicts could be settled overnight
Would you dream that every child on earth could have a better life
Or maybe you would dream that our planet could be saved
Or maybe dream that we all changed our ways
What would you dream ?

Chorus
if we all had the same dreams,  could we make it good ?
If we all had the same dreams I’m sure we could
Nothing has to stay, the way it’s been If we dare to dream
Nothing has to stay the way it’s been  If we dare to dream

2nd verse

What if you could have a dream and make that dream come true
What would you dream?

Would you dream that all the wars we’ve had were memories from the past
Would you dream of peace in the Middle East and pray that peace would last
Or maybe you would dream, that all cancers could be cured
Or maybe dream that no one would be poor
What would you dream ?                                                   

Then repeat chorus

I'm getting a link to a different song. If I click on 'Music' I can then see this song but it won't play.

Hi Chris,

I just tried the link and it is working fine for me, there should be two songs if you scroll down, one is what would you dream and the other is the voice, anyway try this one,

Strange, the original link worked for me this time. Perhaps a glitch at my end.

This is a nice song and the harmony vocals work really well. The lyrics are great too. If I was to offer one suggestion it would be to take both vocals down just a bit in the mix. Otherwise this is lovely.

Hola de nuevo @Jazz101

Wonderful song, relaxing, giving air to the vocals, their space, Very enjoyable listening, puts beautiful calm into the ears.

Hi Chris,

Glad the link worked. Thanks for your comments. I am playing about with the mix so we'll see were it ends up,

Thank George

Hola Mora,

Thank you once more for your kind comments,

George

@jazz101 Really nice vocals (and backing vocals) and some good piano work. Interesting lyrical idea. Perhaps "dream" is a little overused? However, overall a solid production, Kevin

[Jazz101]

Hi Kevin,
Thank you for your feedback, it is really appreciated and I believe invaluable for moving forward, we are always learning so thanks again,

George

[Paul V]

I'm a big fan of vocal harmony.  It shows that the artist has gone the extra mile. The male and female voices work together really well. 

I'm trying to imagine this in a live setting on a big stage where a person would be engulfed in the musical elements and emotion of the performance.  I believe this is where this song would have it's greatest impact as all elements of the soundscape would would shine.  An inspiring message in a world that sorely needs hope yet an underlying sadness pervades throughout as we all know too well that his world is flawed.

Thank you for sharing.

Paul

[Elvis Nash]

Hey George
Very nice arrangement
Great vocals and harmony 

[Jazz101]

[Jazz101]

Thanks Elvis your opinion is always valued, really appreciate it,

George

Hi @Jazz101

  Pleased to 'meet' you.

   A well crafted song and a surprising duet - we don't get many on these boards.  Some nice key changes in there. Personally I'm not a big fan of fadeouts and in this case I didn't quite feel it built enough to fade out in a way that didn't just fee like a fader was moved - if you know what I mean - but that's just a personal preference as the song is very well handled otherwise. I'm not sure if you've implemented any additional mixing since the other comments but the mix sounds pretty good to me. 

All the best,

CCB
