Falling of the Snow

This is a song I'm trying to work on that takes a more genuine approach than most of my songs, since I recorded everything intead of using premade synths and samples. I know it's not the best, but it's a start, plus it gives me a chance to ust my brand new condenser mic :D As Matt Bellamy of Muse basicly said, the interpretation of the song is up to you.

Lyrics:
The way it was before
When we both had the floor
Both our souls were so sore
But we were so in touch before

And now are blindness takes the stand
The jury doesn't know and the judge refused to show
Remember when you used to take my hand
Before the falling of the snow

The seats were all sold out
The band began to play
The air was full of certain doubt
As I stood up, and pleaded my dismay
as I said:

Glory alleluia, play that endless song of love
As the audiance just turned around in awe of what I spoke
The band denied my one request as a voice said from above
It's just the falling of the snow

As I replied: "It isn't right
I didn't even start the fight
But God knows that I never lost my sight"
Through the thick fog from the stage
I thought I saw your kindly face
(and) With all my might, I screamed your sacred name

The band had stopped
The air was calm
The voice above said "Son, she's gone"
Don't fight the falling of the snow
It's just the falling of the snow

I Dig It!

These lyrics are tight, and it's great for an indie song. Your vocals match the slow beat of the music rather well. You've got yourself a full playlist in my music library, my friend. =]

I love it!

I must admit, I didn't have very high expectations; I never have for songs with lyrics, but it turned out to be beautiful. I love the melody, I love the lyrics and I love your voice.

Oh, and the very first line of the lyrics is incorrect.

takeflight responds:

Lol, how did I not catch that? Thank you, I'm glad I could excede your expectations :]

You have a sweet voice :3

Listening to your stuff, I think you're a genuinely musical person. Your voice doesn't dissolve (get inaudible) at places, which is good.

You recorded the guitar at the same time as singing, and it would be nice in two takes, so more than one note can be played at a time. I know it's complicated, but it would be learned eventually, even if you played chords at the same time.

takeflight responds:

Thank you :] I'm learning a whole bunch of chords right now, and I'm getting better but I just wanted to record this asap lol. Thank you very much for your review, and sorry for the late response :]

Hmm... I kinda liked it

Really interesting song indeed, I liked your vocals! lol.. perhaps you should add some drums? and perhaps a more ''catchy'' chorus... but hey! that's just me, Good Job man! KEEP IT UP, I loved the Guitar btw.
Try to check out my submissions as well, and review ofc! ;D ~U got my 5:)

takeflight responds:

This is a basic start for this song, I imagine if I can get my freinds over and do a full-band recording, it would sound much better. I'm glad you liked it, and thanks for the review :]

Effing loved it

Real Professional!
Absolutely loved every second of it, your really talented!
Love your voice as well!
Keep it up!

takeflight responds:

Wow, thank you, I never expected a response like this :P Thank you once again :]
