Title: Your already there
Post by: kenny mac on March 28, 2025, 06:58:18 PM
This started with an acoustic and grew arms and legs.
Hope you like .
  Half past seven
The door to heaven
Is begging you
To give it a knock

You stalled and stuttered
Your brain is cluttered
Your struggling to open the lock

Deep inside
A storm is brewing
There in your heart
You got to take controlle
Uncertainty it rips you apart

(Chorus)
What have you got that stops you
From falling falling in love
Yo ve got a heart of gold
As long as you care
Your already there.

You asked your brother
To make another
Lame excuse to cover your tracks
Don't reject it
Accept, connect it
Opportunity is a blast


Deep inside
A storm is brewing
There in your heart
You got to take controlle
Uncertainty it rips you apart

(Chorus)
What have you got that stops you
From falling falling in love
Yo ve got a heart of gold
As long as you care
Your already there.

This is a cool direction you've taken with your songwriting Kenny! It's has excellent words and the melody is perfect for a sing along. For some reason it reminds me of Harry Nilsson's style of writing. Very well done all around!

This has a king of 60s/70s pop grandiosity to it that is very appealing! There's an intensity that absolutely hooked me.

yep! what a lovely song. jeez you write great songs mate and very eclectic styles.

love how this develops and builds as it goes along and when that guitar solo kicks in at around 2.31 the whole song just lifts so well. bloody good work!

Lovely, soulful track Kenny. I love the jangle of the acoustic and the wonderful distorted guitar really adds to this. I really love the chorus to this song, it sounds melancholic but hopeful. Great stuff man, you are striking gold with all the songs you've been recording recently!

This is deeper than one might realize at first blush.

Your already there.

Love isn't a destination; it's a choice to care. Love is hard.

Musically, this has a classic feel to it, but I can't put my finger on what era or artist. Perhaps lush, anthemic, cinematic pop-rock from the 1970s?
