Title: Destiny's Fire
Post by: Casia - lyricist on January 09, 2009, 06:57:08 AM

Lyrics - Katherine Wong (Casia)
Music/Composition/Mixing - Adam Kirby (Argle)
Vocals - Rebecca L. Riss (Reba)

Destiny's Fire

(V1)
What if you turned to stone
When I looked into your eyes
You were a statue in my garden
And life was passing by
There'd be a hundred million things
That you could never do
A thousand and one temptations
Staring right through you

(Chorus)
Life has a way of making everything okay
The universe will survive another day
If we take a chance
Own up to our desire
Everything in life
Will become destiny's fire
(Destiny's fire)

(V1)
I can't sit in my chair
Pretending I don't care
I can not stand looking down
When I'm lying on the ground
And when the vultures tear
the heart from my flesh
I'll be a stillborn eagle
who does'nt have a breath

(Chorus)
Life has a way of making everything okay
The universe will survive another day
If we take a chance
Own up to our desire
Everything in life
Will become destiny's fire

- solo

(Chorus)
Life has a way of making everything okay
The universe will survive another day
If we take a chance
Own up to our desire
Everything in life
Will become destiny's fire

The universe will survive another day
If we take a chance
Own up to our desire
Everything in life
Will become destiny's fire

Cheers, ladies and gents.  I'm just glad to have finished a track, too many of mine (almost all of them) in the two years fall by the wayside.

Very, very nice. Great music. Fantasic music coming out this place.  8) I think the vocals could come up a tad though. They're almost getting overpowered by the music. Nice tune gang.  8)

Thanks Dave.  I'd like Argle to make an adjustment to the ending as well to either fade completely or finish the vocal on the verse as it seems to end abrubtly.  One could tweak forever  ;D

Thanks Argle....Casia

Hey thanks dude, I was uncertain if the vox were a tad low, but no one would tell me.  :D

Nice track..like the production....Reminds me of Savage Garden or someone of that ilk.

I agree on the vocals....I'm in the habit of bouncing a 2nd mix now with the vocals +1db, and then seeing which one sounds best the day after.

No Probs...so far the 3 times I tried it I always prefered the one with the louder vocal after my ears had a long rest,

I just listened to both versions! Both are very nice!

Casia, you might break the two versions into two different threads in Finished Works? They each deserve their own accolades!

I thought about it Paul but I didn't want to hog the board  :-\.  Maybe I will.

Thanks...Casia

I love both versions. Its such a great pop song. So much more better than everything that I hear from the radio stations everyday.
catchy, catchy, catchy and so nice.

There's 2 version ?

What's the difference ?

CD

Title: Re: Destiny's Fire
Post by: TallPaul on February 01, 2009, 07:52:53 PM

Two different singers! The second version features "Joe K" (I believe?) and is about four or five posts from the first.

A different singer.  Also Casia didn't like the way the original ended (neither did I particularly), so I added some more to the end.
