Lyrics

Look at me closely
Gaze into my eyes
I can see you more clearly
If you step in the light
I have been lonely
I've been afraid
Been moving in circles
And losing my way

I open my eyes
I want to look inside your mind
Want to know what it is like
And if there is a light we can share tonight
But you hide from me
And you won't let me see

Where is the love?
The one that I need
The one that I've known for so long
Is the one that has forgotten me
Where is the light?
Have I gone blind?
The one that I lost in the dark is the one
That I still cannot find

I reach out my hand
And touch you so slowly
I'd give you all my love
If only you'd let me
And I have been waiting
Oh for so long
And I know in my heart
You are the one, the one
The one that I belong to

Chorus

And I try not to cry but I do
Cos I can't live my life
Without you
I'm losing my way
What more can I say
It's true
I love you!

Coolness
You've got a great voice for dance pop. This song is pretty A-OK too.

Now about the arrangement.....

There are things I like. First of all, the background vocals are great.
There are touches like that guitar and the bass sound that I really like
too.

But those drums. They are really annoying, and I'm not sure that they
are appropriate for this song. Your voice has a healthy dose of
emotion, and these drums are too mechanical. They sound like they
belong to an entirely different song.

I'll take a peek at your other songs. I'm intrigued.

Dramatic latin goth glam rock that works
Dramatic unique production, reminds me of Poe at her best, with a great
beat and some unpredictable moments (I especially dig that cool bridge
that modulates into new places). Bass could have punched more,
especially in the second half. I think you over-compress these mp3 files
making them sound more metallic, less warm than your studio version
must. Consider redoing the mp3 using the highest quality compression.
And consider putting up your lyrics and a photo. Definitely more photos
of you would be great. I really dig how you bring a latin pop thing to each
track but still push into new styles. Wonderful details.

great production
Overall, this sounds great, tho' I do agree the drums can get a little too
much. The overall feel to this, and the details and breaks, sound really
professional, and ready for your chosen demographic.
But .. personally, i'm not sure that the chorus is quite up to scratch on
this, and I really don't like the 'have I gone blind' line (maybe it's got too
mnaty, er, overtones to it, you know.... you'll go blind if you keep doing
that).

Overall, i love the big sense of drama and emotion you put into your
tracks - you do have something very unique here.

	agreement I agree about the drums being a little overbearing but more to me was the voice chorus echoes which seemed to shrill and high pitched. I would rather have not had them. Otherwise I like it. Check out my latest song called no sanctuary

	Love it I really like your voice. Have you done collaborations via the Internet? I need a good woman's voice on some of my songs. I like the Middle Eastern rhythm. Aggressive, then flowing. Awesome.

where is the love
nice blend of electronica with the strings and acoustic guitar. supremely
interesting chorus changes and melody lines. really complex and soaring
at the same time. i'm normally not a huge fan of this style, but you have
created something to be taken seriously here. great job on mixing and
bringing elements in and out to create tension and release...this shows
your dynamic range as well...really excellent work.
