Slide

This is upbeat... I think? it certainly has a positive message... maybe? i don't know. It isn't as dower and moody as my usual offering, so it's something!

Lots of guitar layers - trying out some new tonal things - experimenting with some tapey-chorus-lofi-y stuff - I'll keep tinkering.

Trying to embrace vocals more - have them more of a focus in the mix, as well as layering with harmonies - I'm not 100%, but I feel I'm getting somewhere.


Thanks for all of the lovely feedback and support - I love this group of people and this is continuing to be an enjoyable and purposeful part iof each week!

Have a great week!

Lyrics:
Slide a little closer
I want to get to know ya
Put your hand in mine
Have you got the time

I dont know if we'll make it
I think we can make it
We just got to try
But if times our enemy
Then we've just got to fight

Talk about our nothings
Turn them Into something
Look for time to borrow
We've only got tomorrow

I think that we can make it
We just got to try
But if times our enemy
Then we've just got to fight


Let's hold on To the future
I see the future's bright
I can see us here tomorrow
And til the end of time
Its worth the pain and struggle
I know its worth the fight
The morning light is coming
Well make it though the night

I know that we can make it
We just got to try
But if times our enemy
Then we've just got to fight
