I Dread Daybreak

[Sharpola]

Done!! 
I just bought another ovation and tryed a lead with it on the tune instead of a rap which turned out harder to get done than anything, I think it worked out rather well
Pretty easy tune to do with vocals like Ali provided

Lyrics - PVD
Music - Sharpola, Ali Kat
Vocals - Ali Kat

I Dread Daybreak

(V1)
For me ...
My sleep is a welcome relief   
Dreams are deep but far too brief
And even harder to recall

(V2)
For me ...
Darkness comes in shrouded veils
Night's anthems it never fails   
Seems I always hear their call   

(Chorus)
When darkness fades
It raises the shades
On my heartache
Lord, I dread daybreak
Lord, I dread daybreak

Tell me ...
When you close your eyes of blue
Do you suppose I'm thinking of you   
As darkness begins to fall   

(Bridge)
I'm not afraid to face the lonely night
But how do I evade the morning light
Without you ...

(Chorus)
When darkness fades
It raises the shades
On my heartache
Lord, I dread daybreak
Lord, I dread daybreak

This is one of the best collaborations I've heard here at MCS.  Vocals, arrangement, lyrics, everything came together perfectly.  I'd love to see more of this type of music produced here.

Awww, this sounds great! A pleasure helping make it happen.  Great lyrics to work with.

[Studioplayer]

Yep. Really sounds excellent. The ovation works well Ray. Nice sound.

Ali/Ray:

I had to listen to this a few times to get the old version out of my head, I like this one.  It is very smooth.  Thanks for the opprotunity to be involved.

Paul

[Sharpola]

Thanks guys!

Yup this one just kinda clicked, its one of my fav's too

Ray

[spacecube]

Nice one Ray !

[Kerie]

Ooh I like this song!  Ali you have a smooth voice ... lovely!

[CosmicDolphin]

Hey You finished it !

Sounds great - I love it.....It's my number one vote for MC Artists VolII

The new guitar solo works much better than the other one...

I know the rap thing wasn't working but I'd already sent the bed without the solo to a rapper I've been in contact with about two weeks ago, he's definitely supposed to be sending me something back ( eventually ?? )  at some point, so I'm not sure what to do now.

If I do end up getting it back maybe I'll just put it up on the Studio A thread.

[Sharpola]

Thanks guys!

CosmicD, I'd have to hear it first, but rap is what I still hear for this tune.. so can't wait to hear it..

Ray

[CosmicDolphin]

Thanks guys!

CosmicD, I'd have to hear it first, but rap is what I still hear for this tune.. so can't wait to hear it..

Ray

Cool - I'll keep my fingers crossed and if it turns up I'll post it to you.

Nice job. Great vox! Fit like a glove! Ali have you done some heavy rock stuff?
Your voice sort of reminds me of Evenescence. (I prolly butchered the spelling)

[Ali Kat]

I haven't done much heavy rock, but I'm not against doing it.  I've written lyrics for some, but haven't really sung any yet.  Thanks for the compliments.  I really loved doing this song.  With such great lyrics it was hard not to be inspired.

CD I'd really like to hear that rap as well. 

[srvfender]

Very nice job overall. Excellent production!

[NickT]

Very nice job. Solid mix!

Ali - love the vox.

PVD - very cool lyrics!

Ray - That guitar works nice for the solo.

Great job all!
