Daddy is Sad

Description

Yes.....sometimes is sad ‘cause his volcanic son is growing up (15) and challenges him; he doesn’t like at all fighting against his blood but thinks he can’t escape his duty so..........when it happens daddy is sad.
I sing both in italian and english, as I did while composing the song at its first stage.
The tune is exclusively arranged with acoustic guitar, that’s why I thought to do a good thing posting the chords too (bpm 105)

Lyrics

C Cmaj7 C7
Tutto il tempo che vorrai
(All the time you need)
F Fm
Prendi il vento e non fermarti mai
(go with the wind and never stop)
C Cmaj7 C7
Quello sguardo strano che
(that strange look)
F Fm
Ad un tratto hai usato su di me
(you suddenly gave me)
Am D7
Saranno solo parole
(Maybe they’re just words)
F Fm
Ma mi trafiggono il cuore
(but they pierce my heart)
Ab F Ab F
E non mi lasciano piu…. get away…. get away
(and keep hurting me......get away.......get away)
C D7
I know you will not play with me tomorrow
(Remember where you belong)
F
You don’t want to follow
(Forgive me please for being strong)
Fm
That’s why I’m feeling sorrow

C D7
You know you won’t stay with me tomorrow
(Remember where you belong)
F
I’m just looking forward
(Forgive me please for being strong)
Fm
To the time you’ll go your own way

C Cmaj7 C7
Troppe volte ho detto che
(Too many times I said)
F Fm
Non riuscivi a somigliare a me
(you couldn’t look like me)
C Cmaj7 C7
Si, non ci ho creduto mai
(Yes, I never believed it)

F Fm
Ma alla fine ho solo fatto guai
(but at the end I made a lot of trouble)
Am D7
Saranno solo parole
(Maybe they’re just words)
F Fm
Ma ti trafiggono il cuore
(but they pierce your heart)
Ab F Ab F
E non ti lasciano piu…. get away…. get away
(and keep hurting you......get away.......get away)

C D7
I know you will not play with me tomorrow
(Remember where you belong)
F
You don’t want to follow
(Forgive me please for being strong)
Fm
That’s why I’m feeling sorrow

C D7
You know you won’t stay with me tomorrow
(Remember where you belong)
F
I’m just looking forward
(Forgive me please for being strong)

To the time you’ll go your own way

Supertramp?
What a well-written song... and being a dad who has a suffered some heavy "get away" action from his son too, this hits me close to home.

Love the melody, guitar work and singing... the song sounds a little like something Supertramp would write (definitely a compliment!) I think the guitar is a little too loud, almost clipping... I would back it down a little.

From one dad to another, I wish you strength... be a good role model for him, he will love you for that, eventually he will be glad you were strong and guiding. I tell myself that every day as I wait for my son to find himself and begin to understand, perhaps even thank me someday as I did with my dad :-) And keep writing this great music, it is so nice of you to share it!

ttfn,
Drakonis

Nice Mix
This has a very full sounding mix. I like the way things sound. Harmonies are very well done. I don't speak a word of Italian (except "ciao") but, it doesn't matter. This was a very pleasant listen.

The only nits I have are, I can't stand the harshness of a plugged in, under the bridge pickup acoustic guitar. Just a personal preference, however, consider using a microphone to capture your guitar next time.

Also, there was a very pronounced "hiss" throughout the piece. In this day and age of digital, this shouldn't happen. It does though. A number of factors could be the cause. I suspect the plugged in acoustic's levels being too hot.

Please don't let my critique take to mean anything mean. I really liked the song. Just a few suggestions for improvement. So, ciao! :)

	Awakes thoughts Hi Lou This a well composed song with a heart in it. It makes me wonder what will happen when my son is 15 years old. He is 12 today. Every age have it's challenges, our childrens and our own. We don't get older but our children do :-) Just trying to survive... A song that makes you think about your own family ... thats good.
