Heartbreaker

[McAllister]

Lot's of ways to write about a broken heart ("Heartbreaker", "The Night Before", "Heartbreak Hotel", "Paper Bag", etc.).

You're job: add one.

Today is 8/23 - let's say by the end of Sept.

All styles welcome.

Best,

[dwoz]

I've just been asked to "audition" as a songwriter/vocalist for a local project...they've given me a couple music beds to put a song onto...I'll use one of them in this challenge!

[McAllister]

Excellent, dwoz, I'd love to have it here.

And I can promise now, that yes, I will actually have a song for this one.
Something appropriate bubbled up.

But then, I've always found it easier to write from the sour end of love.

[McAllister]

Done!!

[celitus]

Hey, I thought I would submit a song for this when I saw the topic :grin:

Vocals arent the best, and the recording quality is far from perfect, but the melodies are there.

[McAllister]

Hey celitus - thanks for playing and getting a tune completed.

Great job!

[Grapestomper]

celitus,

would you be willing to put up lyrics? Your vocal is very restrained and buried, and try as I might, I can't make out more than half the words.

Good to see new folk participating, though. Thanks for playing.

Mike

Here you go

Tears falling down into oceans of pain
Washed away like the first winter's rain
For laughter seems like a memory
Lost drifting to the sea

Tell me why everything went wrong
Time and again, I try to keep moving on
Open minds, To open hearts I speak
looking Through the window to my eternity

Rest your head on me, when things go wrong
Say what you think and try to be strong
never let the light behind the masks we wear
Hold on to the moment, the last we may share

[Grapestomper]

cool, celitus, thanks.




I've written one. I actually got it written last month, but I haven't recorded it yet.

I've been busy, tired, and my hands are all fucked up from harvest. I may get a ragged demo done this weekend, but I'm not sure... badly need firewood.

Will post it when I can, at any rate.

[Grapestomper]

Will post it when I can, at any rate.

Said it might not be anytime too soon.

Here it is, though.

What's next, chief?

[DeMontague]

Woah! McAllister! :icon_eek:

That's a nice bit of songwriting there. Me likey.
