SONGS2SHARE Is Here For You (Client E-mail)
Category: Music
Occassionally I get mail from songwriters that move me in a very good way. A special way. Here is an e-mail exchange that moved me today.
Hello David, When I first started co-writing songs with Clare about 7 years ago, that first time I heard her piano to my words brought tears to my eyes as well. I know that feeling. I still get it today with some of the emotionally moving songs I co-write. We recently finished a song titled HEAVEN inspired by my new daughter in law’s cousin’s unexpected passing. The song is meant to be sung when a love is lost and upon hearing my lyric set to melody, it too brought a mist to my eyes. Songs are powerful.
Being able to help give you that same experience is a blessing for me. Believe me, I have tears welling up right now as I read your e-mail. I’ve had a few other composers be WOWed by other artists working their songs and then when they heard the song, it was like – an emotional experience for them. Most songwriters I work with are early in their careers and hearing their song fine tuned is very exciting for them.
Thank you so much for this e-mail. I am on the lyrics this weekend. You did right to shorten the song. I think it’s the perfect length for the message. You may upload As Sparrows Fly at the S2S website anytime.
Fondly,

Good Evening David, I’m listening to your Break My Heart and loving it a bit more each time. I don’t expect you to do anything until I’ve had time to study the lyric. Did you receive Schroeter’s piano accompaniment? What did you think?
I love the intimacy of your vocal and guitar. It’s great. I also hear a dramatic sounding piano song as well. We can go either way or both. This is a great song.
Fondly,
