The Perfect One - The final mix/master from Farrell, Joseph, & Cookie's violin

[Farrell Jackson]

Here's a final mix of a song that Joseph Rodriguez sent me called The Perfect One.  I added the lyric, melody and lead vocal.  Joseph also added some additional backing vocals. It reminds of 80's rock and specifically Toto but I can hear The Survivor references that have been made.

This is the final version with Cookie's violin solo added. It's been remixed and mastered. We hope you like it

The Perfect One

( V1) Time marches on....I think of all the loves of past
Some just went by.......they were never meant to last

(Brdg/Pre Chr) I get lost for hours....dancing on your strings
There's so much joy..... your love brings

(Chr) The feeling of a cool spring rain
The smell of pies on the window sill
Memories rising up again
The rush of wind on the rolling hills

(V2) I search for words.....looking for something clever
I hope they'll come..... but maybe never

(Brdg/Pre Chr) Then I see a scene.... of a clear blue sky
The vivid colors...matches your eyes

(Chr) The feeling of a cool spring rain
The smell of pies on the window sill
Memories rising up again
The rush of wind on the rolling hills

(V3) When our days are over.....there will be no questions.  
When all is said and done....you are the perfect one

(Solo)

(Chr 2x's) The feeling of a cool spring rain
The smell of pies on the window sill
Memories rising up again
The rush of wind on the rolling hills

The feeling of a cool spring rain
The smell of pies on the window sill
When all is said and done
You are the perfect one

Hi Farrell, great post. I listened to some of Josephs music on another site and love it as I do yours.........Willie

[Farrell Jackson]

Thanks Hook, Neil, Paul and Willie! I've reworked some of the vocal spots I wasn't 100% satisfied with. The next step is to get them over to Joseph for the songs' final mix and production. I'll repost when it's finished.

Thanks again for listening and commenting!

This has a very 80's Starship or Toto kinda vibe. You added some nice vox to the mix Mr. Jackson. Always like Joseph's guitar sound. Nice little bridge with bass and then that smooth lead kicks in and just soars. Great stuff guys!

Whopper of a tune, a great listen! Has a Toto feel in spots which I like, but don't tell anybody

Again, cool tune, love it!

[Redler]

Sounds very good Joseph and Farrell!! This could be a lost Toto track - a strong 80's feel, imo!! Excellent production, vocals and everything works well on this!
