I pulled this one out of my back catalog and finished it up. Originally a guitar song, I've been practicing it on piano for the past week and a half.

Recorded in one take, piano and voice simultaneously. I went without edits, re-takes, or pitch correction so I have this recording as a reference point to compare to later, after some voice lessons.

*standing ovation*
Dang, my boy is writing and performing solo pop ballads. Great job dude, I look forward to hearing your progress on your vocal lessons, hopefully for WB2024 wink

i'm seriously going to cry

The "simple" arrangement and delivery makes this very delicate and true. This is a very good song.

This is gonna be hard to best, which is normal for single takes like this. This has the most heart, any other version will feel much more rehearsed.
Honestly, it's what I love about WB.

That was really beautiful and heart wrenching! Really really nice job!
