Why Do We Roam by Kerry and @RVA

[Kerry Brown]

I put @RVA 's lyrics he posted on my other thread to some music. What do you think? Does the music fit the lyric? I think I need to lower the key it's too high for my voice. It's in A now. Any changes I should make before I start working on a final version.

I am flattered Sir!

I am flattered Sir!

Thank you. I tried to be true to the lyrics. Do you want any changes? There are a lot of minor chords which makes it sad. Is that what you were going for? Maybe not sad, more longing for the past?

 

[Ramo]

Good job guys.

My only goal was to support your work. The music sounds wonderful!

I cleaned up the mix a bit and added another rhythm track with electric guitar. It's way back in the mix just to fill things out a bit.

Very somber and pretty, kind of reflective. Nice job to you and @RVA !

Very cool!!! It’s nice to hear this come together.

It’s very short. I’m thinking a solo in the middle somewhere and possibly another bar with no vocals after the chorus.

Build a “bridge” Kerry! You can do it!

It has a bridge already

I’m thinking a piano or guitar solo for one verse in the middle then two bars of no vocals after each chorus instead of one. That should bump it up to around 3:00 minutes plus give it more room to breathe.

Sorry....maybe....build a more “substantial“ bridge...one that wanders off the path a bit...one that you could solo a guitar over...one that would serve to unite our species more closely...one that would ignore that last statement, and push on to new heights...new levels of consciousness...and serve to bring a new understanding of the value of.......

Betty White as the comedic genius that she is, when paired with Ryan Reynolds....

I sincerely hope that was not too political....
