Reflected In Your Eyes was written for my Open Mic entry this week.
As ever, it was penned very quickly and improvised as I went along.
After listening to again on Monday, I started to layer some other instruments, re sung the vocals and mixed it.
This is always a rather speedy process as I'm a busy father of two little people, who like to burst through the door mid-vocal recording!!
I then sent the rough master over to @d-vine who's an incredibly talented producer, for her to master, bring out the dynamics and sprinkle some of her Devine production magic all over it.
I'm sure you'll agree that it sounds so much different to the original OpenMic entry, and coupled with @d-vine mastering touches, makes for a really catchy new track of mine. So if you're an independent busy artist like myself, that would like some help with your tracks I totally recommend @d-vine to add that magical finishing touch to your tracks.
News just in!
I uploaded the song to BBC Introducing here in the UK. They've discovered some of Britain's best new artists in the past.
Here's the email I just received at 19:06!

***Like the email states, it's not a guaranteed play but I mighty good start fir a song that's a little over 24hours since it's upload!
Fingers crossed!
@d-vine Onwards and upwards!!
Lyrics - for @hedac and @yidneth - And for everyone else that likes to sing along to my tracks ;-)
And I can't buy your sadness
And I can't buy you a smile
I've waited on a long sigh
And claimed it again
Somewhere inside you
Remains my life
The one you tried to damage
It's the one I can't abide
To pay but never
I flee from your lies
rejuvenated conscience
reflected in your eyes
But didn't I didn't I tell you
It's the love that survives
But didn't I didn't I tell you
Somewhere I released and cried
And I can't buy your sadness
And I can't buy you a smile
I've waited on a long sigh
And claimed it again
And somewhere inside you
Remains my life
The one you tried to damage
It's the one I can't abide
To pay but never
I fleed from your lies
rejuventaed conscience
reflected in your eyes
But didn't I didn't I tell you
It's the love that survives
But didn't I didn't I tell you
Somewhere I released and cried
But didn't I didn't I tell you
It's the love that survives
But didn't I didn't I tell you
Somewhere I released and cried
