Title: Echo From The Past
Post by: Mimmo on June 10, 2007, 03:31:04 PM
I want to thank Bobby D. (DesolatedSoul) for the lyrics he provided to create this beautiful song.
And of course all the great musicians that joined in a very short period of time.
This is my very first big production, I am very happy with the way everything has gone this far.

 Mimmo.      Music, mix, production
                     Vocals and backup vocals

Many thanks also go to Nick T. for his help in the post-production mastering.


  Hope you all enjoy


                                             Echo from The Past


I could feel you in the wind, chasing me through the door
Closed my eyes and let you sweep me across the floor
Oh I've tried to forget, but I don't know how,
And if I had more fait, we'd be together now...

We were getting to close and I got scarred,
'Cause nobody else had ever, ever cared.
So I couldn't give back the love I'd won from you,
And I withheld my hearth though why you never knew...

Chorus:
I tried to go into the future,
Without taking the past with me.
And when I looked into the mirror,
You were the only one I'd see.
Some memories don't last forever
While others echo from the past,
Yeah some memories don't last forever,
While others echo from the past.

You've lost your bet in our game, of romantic roulette.
But in every window I still see your silhouette.
'Cause I can't force my self to pull down the blinds,
And forever shut you out of my tortured mind...

Repeat chorus.

Now I don't know if you'll ever understand,
Why I did slip right though your hands,
I never wanted it to come to an end,
My restless heart has cheated me again...


� 2006 Bobby D.

I want to thank everyone who contributed to making my lyric come to life, but especially to Mimmo who got the ball rolling.

I was impressed by everyone's playing and by the spirit of this community. I hope I can work with some of you again in the future on another one of my lyrics.

Thanks again everyone. This turned into a really great track !

Congrats this turned out really  8)

I like the fact that the dynamics is maintained and the songs builds when it should. The only thing that could have been improved is the singing melody in the verses to be a little different, but all in all it works still, so who cares.  :-X   The drums and percussion
sound good and are played well by Mr. Jman and, I like those background harmonies Mimmo. They really help the song lift. The
strings are perfect or, should I say a perfect fit. You can feel the song and it's mood.  :D  I love the bridge near the end.  8)
I like the keys and everything else. As I said before the bass is perfect for this song. Well done. The vocals are great.

Well for your first really big production the tune could always be mixed better but you did a very good job. Cool song Mimmo.
You should post an ape of it.

Very cool work and everyone did good work.  8)
