Title: Stay With Me Tonight - 2nd PLACE AT INTERNATIONAL POP FESTIVAL IN BULGARIA
Post by: Casia - lyricist on October 16, 2008, 01:08:10 PM
This lyric, which Victoria sang and her husband composed, won second place in a Pop festival in Russia In August  :).

Stay With Me Tonight - her husband composed the music and I wrote lyrics from nonsense English/Russian words that Victoria provided me.  Hmmm!  Seems to be a blip in this version in the first chorus???  I'll get another one.

Vocals:  Victoria Linskaya (Russia)
Composition/Arranger/Producer:  Andrey Kontsur (Russia)

Stay With Me Tonight

(V1)
Some people dance in the rain
Some people think love's a game
On a stage, won't you play
With me forever
I fell in love with you that night
And now I realize
I need you in my life
We'll be together

(Prechorus)
Will there ever be good-byes
Can love survive with all the lies

(Chorus)
In a world of dreams
There's no time for
Walking the catwalk
The curtains rise
Scenes of you and I
It's not real life
Stay with me tonight

(V2)
Some people live day to day
Re-writing scripts of their pain
Wonderin' if love will stay
With them forever
Today I give you my life
On this backdrop of light
Where our loves on display
We'll be together

(Prechorus)
Will there ever be good-byes
Can love survive with all the lies

(Chorus)
In a world of dreams
There's no time for
Walking the catwalk
The curtains rise
Scenes of you and I
It's not real life
Stay with me tonight

(Bridge)
Your lips, your eyes, your smile
Sounds like a sweet melody
You've got my love and my life

(Chorus x 2)

Okay then, cause the green ones are still on sale this week.  I only buy them when they're on sale - the big juicy ones if I remember correctly  ;D

An album eh, what me write and you sing, cause I can't sing...maybe background vocals.  Maybe I can sing with grapes in my mouth.... :o.  Maybe you can mix it to make it sound like I can sing  ;D ;D ;D

This is very impressive. Excellent production and a lot of work went into the vocal arrangement.
Brilliant pop lyrics Casia.

 BTW - That blip?...I think it's the percussion (handclaps, finger clicks and something else...like an electric conga slap?).

Hi:

Just getting photos and stuff in now for last year  ;D ;D.  No video available though  :'(.

Victoria Linskaya won 2nd place at the International Pop Music Festival "Discovery" in Bulgaria in August, 2008, for Casia's lyric "Stay With Me Tonight".  No money involved, but she got a BIG crystal trophy  ;D.  She was invited to sing all-expense paid.  I wrote this song from existing music by a Russian composer.
