I have been taking singing lessons for the last 6 months with an amazing singing teacher. She is a professional singer and she also writes and performs her own songs.
Anita has not only been helping me with my singing techniques, I can hear her now 'open throat', but she has also helped me with slight changes to some of my best songs.
Lea has recorded a few of these for me and has uploaded one on to You Tube. I showed Anita at Saturday's singing lesson and she gave me the thumbs up for singing mostly with an open throat. Hope you like my new revamped version of 'Moon to the Sea'. Click the link below the lyrics to have a listen!
As
The Moon To The Sea
You are a jewel a
sparkling fire
Cannot resist to stand
and admire
I gaze on your
beauty...shall never tire
Serenading sweetly as
a bird on a wire
Your gentle
touch...love you so much
Bring peace to my
soul...inner voices hush
Just being with
you...helps the days through
Everything's
possible...all I can do
Chorus
l could search a thousand years
Look high, low, far and near
You are to me as the moon to the sea
I'm nothing without you...but sad and lonely
Burns inside a constant desire
Your very presence lifts me higher and higher
Life is good...am out of the woods
Would have it not any other way if I could
Look high, low, far and near
You are to me as the moon to the sea
I'm nothing without you...but sad and lonely
Bridge
My heart is filled with joy
Each day I spend with you
No-one other than you
Makes me feel the way I do
Chorus
l could search a thousand years
Look high, low, far and near
You are to me as the moon to the sea
I'm nothing without you...but sad and lonely
I'm nothing without you...but sad and lonely

ReplyDeleteNicely done!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't open the link to YouTube, Paul. I'll go check on the site itself. Nice to have singing lessons, although I wouldn't have thought you needed any.
ReplyDeleteI think you're doing great without lessons, too, but as a photographer, I am continually trying to study and learn new techniques and perfect the existing techniques. I think a hunger to learn is a very healthy thing!
ReplyDeleteSuch a perfect song for apres eclipse!!!
I love this, "As The Moon To The Sea", what great words. I am a lyric person myself, not knowing one blooming thing about music! I had a listen to the video, and I say: very well done! Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed at the talent out here in blog land! Love this Paul! What a sweet love that must have inspired the lyrics. No need for voice lessons...you sound great! Enjoyed it so much..thanks for sharing! Have a good weekend!
