Title: handycap
Post by: xicpanad on February 13, 2009, 04:22:49 AM
This is a song i did yesterday for a project in my job, related with dificulties of handycaped people in our world (hope I wrote this correctly).
It has some chorus with children singing in it. In the end it was quite funny to do this.
Cheers

Here it is. The song is quite oriented to kids, cause this is actually a project for a school.

What if one day you couldn´t walk no more
without somebody´s help
If tomorrow you´re not able to see
Imagine how you would live.

But I think that I am not diferent
I feel just like everyone else.

              And from now, I wanted to live without
              Obstacles to avoid
  Chorus   To be happy, with no suffering
              And to run in the hole world.

When I see other children playing
funny games that make them laugh
I´m aware i can´t do as much
But I know that I can feel

Little things that need such a little change
Then i´ll have wings and i´ll fly

Repeat chorus 3 times

This is really moving - even without knowing what the words are in English. Kids singing will always add a touching fragility to a song. Excellent work, and refreshingly different to most of the other music we post on here.

Hey I'm a rocker usually, but you caught my attention,
This melody and tone are so sweet...
I 2nd Greeny's response, this is a refreshing breath of fresh air here.
You have a talent my man

I third Greeny's comments. Very nice song, has a similar sensitive feel to TomH86's work. Well done.

Cheers,

Nigel

What a sweet song ... I love it. In some respects it reminds me of "Eres Tu" (I think the chord sequence might be responsible). That simple piano figure is a memorable motif, and the children's chorus really adds something when it comes in.
