Snejk Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So, life has been tumultuous for a long time, for a long list of reasons and I decided to give up singing. However, as things slowly are getting better, I do see some light and with that comes the will to try and create music and sing. The voice needs constant maintenance and I have indeed lost ability, but hopefully I'll get it back and eventually become better So, this was an idea for a song that I came up with, it's only a verse and a bridge quickly recorded with my phone as to not forget the idea so I'm aware of the out of tune notes xD (Though, taking a break from music I must admit that my pitch has become worse ) It's in Swedish though so bear with me xD There are no high notes at all. Quick translation, pretty much everything is lost in translation and without the rhymes, oh well Hope you're all doing well, I hope to start posting here again, provided life continues to improve :> --- Have you forgotten the sun That may have burnes you at times When you reached too far Have you forgotten that life lives within you? Frozen solid, for thousands of years Preserved so cold a dream and a fall Have you forgotten how life lives within you? Nothing turns out to be what you expect it to be Turn around, there's your friend Those who once were there, will still be there for you If you'd only try again So when you see the road the one that leads you forward the one that leads you home Do remember then, that life lives within you?

Validar Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Sounds good, man. Don't ever give up on your music. It's the one thing you can always count on to be "there" for you. It may sound a little hokey, but it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snejk Posted September 15, 2014 Author Share Posted September 15, 2014 Thanks Vali It may be a cliché but it's true :> Can't really see myself as whole unless I sing ._.; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronws Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 I agree with Validar. Keep doing what you are doing. And if you ever think about giving up singing, then email me your address so that I can fly to your country and kick your butt back into singing. Which will be embarrassing, and old guy like me whoopin' your butt. Welcome back, I am always a fan of your voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singingnewbie Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 The voice needs constant maintenance and I have indeed lost ability, but hopefully I'll get it back and eventually become better ... I wonder how you'd sound after you regain your ability... its a very catchy song and very good performance! Off topic, it aytoplayed "No Time For Us", dude if it is also your composition you write very nice songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snejk Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 Hey Ron, a good ass kickin' might be needed at times haha. Good to see you again Singingnewbie; thanks for listening. The "No Time For Us" is half a cover of a Broder Daniel-song but I changed alot in the melody and made the piano arrangement/melody myself (the original is simple guitar strumming). Most of the songs on my SoundClouds are original songs however, only a few covers and when I cover I always change alot of things (because hey, why try to sound like someone else when you can sound like yourself instead? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Validar Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Thanks Vali It may be a cliché but it's true :> Can't really see myself as whole unless I sing ._.; Indeed. As I said, it may sound hokey, but it's oh so true. People, places, and relationships will come and go in our lives, but music will always be there, and even if doesn't lead you to the success you desire, the satisfaction and release of it all is hard to beat if you really love what you're doing.

gno Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Sounds really good. Nice lyrics. Glad you're able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. No matter what happens, music will always be with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olem Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Sounds great, Snejk, you have a great voice and a commercial tone. I think i am one of the few who understands the lyrics since i am swedish I know the feeling of giving up on singing, sometimes i think - why the heck am i doing this it is a waste of time i will never achieve anything by it but then a couple of days pass and i get an urge for singing again. It is a drug, i can´t quit and why should i, even though i propably never will be great at it i feel good by doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
