Acoustic Freestyle Original Song | Silver Linings (working) | @daily-musings | Creative Process

in #dsound6 years ago (edited)


I debated sharing this because it's not a finished piece, but I'm determined to put more of my work out there.

I write songs by freestyle playing guitar and making up the lyrics as I go. I find I can just let it come out naturally and then go back later to edit or change the chords. It's mostly the cadence and tone that I stick to when editing later.

Let me know what you think!

Silver Lining (working title)

Oh to be young in love,
I thought it was enough.
I kept looking for silver linings,
where there wasn't one.

I climbed to a view above, and I only saw the sun.
Haven't seen the silver linings, and I don't see your love.
I don't see your love.

You drove me back to my my place,
and I try to interpret the looks on your face.
I saw a man, a broken race.
I saw a man who can't see love.

I thought that I could compensate,
for your lack of feelings babe.
But I couldn't, but I couldn't.

So as I drive by your place,
sometimes I would scream out your name,
out of what felt like hate,
but was wasted love,
so wasted babe.
So wasted babe.

Oh I keep looking for silver linings.
I'll keep on my climbing.
I see the moon on the horizon.
If I keep moving forward like this.

Thanks so much for the feature, it means a lot!

The song is good @daily-musings! You sound like the famous singer here in the Philippines, her name is Moira dela Torre. :) You're such an awesome singer and composer! :) Your voice is so calm and relax. :)

Thanks so much! I just looked up Moira and really like her although I don't understand the lyrics :) I wish I did.
Thanks for the support and encouragement! Keep and eye out for more to come.

So this is amazing! I did send it to curie and some of the curators thought the same but the problem is verfifying its actually you over dsound. They suggested making a video instead. Whats your thoughts on that? You are amazing and I'd love to get your work showcased. If you do make a video make sure you tag me in that post so I can forward it on.

Sure I'd be happy to make a video, but this particular recording was sort of in the moment and may be a bit different. I was in the zone yesterday, haha.
If I introduce the song personally in a video, is that enough or does the whole thing need to be a video?

I think for it get curied it would need to be full video, it dosen't have to be the same as I think anything you do would be awesome, just tag me when you have time and I will follow up with curie :)

This is a huge opportunity ;) I'm with @insideoutlet...any song I'm sure you do would be great !

That's actually a good idea @insideoutlet. Let us know when you can @daily-musings :)

I get my new laptop today, so I plan on uploading the open mic video entry tonight or tomorrow!

Awesome! Looking forward to hearing and seeing it :)
