Title: TLC (Holger/DocMidnite/Marcel/Steffen/Andy)
Post by: AndyG6508 on January 09, 2013, 08:11:11 PM
Update 13Jan13: Steffen's remix with higher vocal level posted.

A neat little collab done I would like to think :).

Another simple tune of mine, written years ago, brought to life by Holger's vocals, Henry's tasty guitar parts, Marcel's steady drumming pulse, and wrapped together by Steffen's solid mix.

Thanks guys - fab!!


TLC (c) Andy Gupta 2012

bpm=127

Intro: F G x2

C
Tender are the thoughts that arise in me
         G
When I'm thinking of you
   F                     G
If lover's meet at Journey's end
       G7
I'm glad that I found you


Loving are the ways you shower me with
In everything that you do
If love is a smoke made with fume of sighs
It's worth the tears we dry

Chorus: TLC (over F G x2)

Bridge:
F                  G
Love is like a precious plant
             C           Dm                C                    Dm
It needs nurturing     -    a little understanding
C       G
Let it grow
Dm               G
Love is like a promise made
              C            Dm                  C            Dm
It's like a souvenir -      don't let it disappear
Am     G
Let it show

Solo : C/G/F/G/C/G

Caring are the ties which bounds us to
Like pieces that fit in
If love is blind lovers do not see
It's worth the knocks we take

Chorus: TLC

Personnel:

Holger Bremer: Vocals
Henry Mittnatch : Electric and acoustic guitars, solo
Marcel Hoeke: Drums
Andy Gupta: Lyrics/music, bass
Steffen Offermann: Mix/Master

What the heck is TLC?

Who cares? Sounds like a cool summer tune, when you're in the mood to check out the chicks in the beach  >:D...

... Damn, I did not say that  >:(

Hi Paulo,

Thanks for the kind comment.

TLC - the answer is in the lyric - read the verses again :).

Nothing wrong with exercising your eye muscles on a nice hot day at the beach  :D

Hey Andy,

good to see this song here! Thank you Andy for the invitation and thank you guys for the kind comments! It was a pleasure, looking forward to the next one!

The song has a very nice sixties feeling and I got feedback from german friends that it sounds a bit like the Hollies.

Soon dude (even now), just give me a song that, you know fits my style, but no bombardment as I am trying to juggle work and hometime with my kids and something has got to give. In this case the music  :(
....but I do have some time approaching  ;D
...fire away ANdy    :D
