Music by Terry Sounders
Lyrics by Andy Furlong
Vocals-Back-up Vocals-Production and Mix by Dom Mercurio

        I WILL GO       
Sanctuary rolls its eyes
Kicks me when I'm down
And reminds me why
I'm here and what I am
Striving to take charge of existence
Gotta push away the negative
Hang on to the positive
Raise my chin and strive
Reach the highest height
I will go without fear, I will go,
 I will go, without a doubt,
I will go
'Cause I know what it's about
We are all the same and ride...... life's river flow
And for that reason
I will go And for that reason
I will go
Death can drum,  its fingers
Grinning wickedly
But I’m busy,-
I've got some more work to do
A voyage of discovery
While there is still some time     
Gotta push away the negative
Hang on to the positive
Raise my chin and strive
Reach the highest height



Stand up to the clouds so dark
Look at life's question mark
Find strength from deep inside
Carry on with eyes... open wide

Hey guys,

Lovely to see this song completed, it's been a while :). Really nice chords in there, Nick.

I can't help being super impressed with the original performances- guitars, keys, slide and Steve's heartful vocals.

Nick - this must have been a beast to mix, with all that instrumentation.  To my ears, the snare could have drier, but it's a matter of personal taste.

I liked the LANDR master better, sounds more organic/warm.

UPdate: Nick, I like your original master too!

Super!
Andy

Finished Works / All That We Need

All That We Need (McAndrew/Testa)


Verse 1
Though miles and fathoms lie between us
Pain so great when we're apart
You know deep secrets of my being
And I, the inner secrets of your heart

Verse 2
We surely soon will cross the ocean
Now not long 'til we depart,
One thing that can't be touched by distance
Is your eternal presence in my heart


Chorus 1
All that we need, is the joy of sharing the dawn of a brand new day
While all we need feel is love

Verse 3
And when we look and search around us
Glowing embers burning bright
My mind's eye throws me your reflection
That glows and turns my darkness into light

Chorus 2
All that we need is love that burns bright within our hearts
While all we need feel is that love

Middle 8
From those distant chains that bound us
Senses reeling, true love empowered us

Chorus 3
All that we needed was
love to stir us, make our hearts dance joyfully

Verse 4
Through miles that lay between us
And the pain of being apart
There was not one thing on this earth that could reach between our hearts

Mix sounds great, very cool to hear a collab like this come together, a bit of nostalgia. Love the outro, Bill's guitar, really tight little song. I like it! Good job guys, I agree, keep it up!

Instant favorite! This one is so evocative of the great players of the 70's and 80's and still so original. The fade out is just chef's kiss! Great job by everyone! 8)
