UNDER A METAL SKY - Acoustic demo

[Daniel Storey]

Been trying finish this one off for a while, so here it is! Done! Next one like, now

Had some fun pushing the boudaries with the mix on this one, only got headphones so not too sure how it would stand out on moniter speakers at volume, but wanted a pumping delay, phsycoldellic stuff, under a metal sky! As with my other posts, this is the arrangement demo, kinda recorded live as its being written/finished.

Please share any thoughts on this, its been a real struggle to finish off, i had the idea like weeks.

LYRICS:

Tell me that there is a light
Tell me that it still burns bright
Tell me when I'm reeling
When I can't see wrong from right

Tell me if you have to go
Tell me if the water's cold?
Tell me if I'm sleeping on the backseat of your mind

This is all I need
Got colour at my feet and it won't fade away
Even if they make it rain on us
Falling like metal dust from a silver sky
Time will paint the distance between you and I

Show me that the good will out
Show me when I'm left with doubt
Smile when I'm walking through the door that you'll walk out of
Tell me when the water's flow
Show me as the ghost moves slow
Smile when I'm rising to a height you'll never climb

Love is all we need
God's colours at our feet won't fade to grey
Even if they make it rain on us
Falling like metal dust from a silver sky
Time to paint the distance between you and I

Thanks I used a Samsung HMX-F80 camcorder, I put the song as mp3 on my phone to moniter the lip sync! Never tried anything like this before, really pleased with the response. I literally JUST decided to go do it, with about half an hour of sunlight left, so i didnt get much footage to mix.

Did this mainly because a friend with a pro camera buisness is going to help me soon, I didn't want to turn up as a complete novice to a cam in my face! Gotta get used to those strange looks from the dog walkers

Glad you enjoyed it (y)
