"Some People" by Mayla Fox

Okay, this is a song (I can say that with a vocal piece, right ?) that I wrote a little over a year ago.  I had just gone through a period of thinking A LOT more in-depth about life than I ever have... heh .... and this just came out of me one day.

The piano accompaniment is minimalistic, as you will hear.  I am singing....(and playing  )  This is me living out one little dream... he he he... it kinda tickles.

As far as the sound quality, there is a little click that happens occasionally within the first 1'20 and goes away after that (if you just concentrate on the singing  , you won't think too much of the clicking)... and I put an echo on it because.. well, I love it that way AND I want to haunt you ...    (it also makes me think I singing into some great canyon or on a stage with lots of feedback... LOL)


Thanks for listening

auwm1469that's really really nice. I love the style of the melody, sounds kind of irish/celtic (which gets extra kudos in my book, I'm in love with that style).
And you have an absolutely lovely voice; care to teach me?

Thanks for your feedback, Mozartian.  I have actually taught a few voice lessons, and mostly, I felt exactly like I would think a fish feels when out of water.  I don't know much about how it all works and, consequently, proceeded to gain a deep respect for the vocal teachers and coaches out there whom are capable of helping people figure out what to do with themselves, ultimately allowing them to create a pleasing sound.  Perhaps if I wanted to teach it, I could, but, it is a lot of work and the things I am already doing have me feeling quite busy (and keep me on my toes).

I actually really enjoy Irish/celtic music, however, I had never thought about that as it relates to this "Some People" here.  That's an interesting consideration.


Thank you very much

m1469, I went to the site and clicked on the link but nothing seemed to happen...I know it said it could take a while, but how long should it be?

[m1469]

abell, I am not sure exactly what you mean by going to the site and clicking on the link.  You can just click the link in my initial post in this thead here.  Thank you very much for trying to listen.. he he.  I think it was having some problems downloading for awhile but seems to be working fine right now.  So, if you want, you can just try again

thats a dope piece of work..

[dave santino]

That's really cool, chord changes remind me of "Imagine", vox are haunting, and you really do have a beautiful voice. Muchos kudos!!

The problem is that you need Windows Media Player 10 to play it, and we have 9 (and are not running XP). Could you possibly post it as an mp3?

[m1469]

Okay, I posted it in the audition room as an mp3.  Sorry to anyone who gets annoyed for my double post.
