KRIS SHRED - The Shiniest Eyes (Original 2006)

[Selbsvertandlichkeit]

"Oh, I feel a lot of love in me

People sometimes signalize that they feel alone

Wanna give it for the ones when they need me

Gonna give all I have got for my friends"

my favorite lines - preceiving the magic in the world, feel compelled to give or share - art - to nurture the world with inner... light? love energy?

the lyrics of this song do resemble poetry

and the form is messy/cheotic yet organized

i also think this is my favorite of the originals because of the special mood it describes

[777danid]

du bist ein poet ;)

[andsomethingold]

to be taken advantage of

it prefers to stop beating

[andsomethingold]

really thank you for being such a great friend that you prefered to explain away my feelings and take advantage of my care and friendship and trust... all the while...

well, today i believe some people are born without hearts

when it's not all about them, they cannot feel and they cannot care

if they are actually needed (not only when they feel like, but when they are needed) they blame it on the other for being selfish.

today my heart is a stone and cannot feel for it doesn't like

[kajkowo]

man dem kenne ich doch :-)

[TeamCannabis]

Wow, another real nice tune, really like the lyrics! Gotta love those minors and minor sevenths on the down beat, give this a dirge like quality, that just draws ya in, an keeps ya there, very well performed!

[KrisShred]

Thanks very much. If you like, you can compare this version to the one on my 1st home made album on my website. The link is on my channel.

Kris

[TeamCannabis]

Kris, I just listened to these songs on your website, and I can only say, quite remarkable, very nice work, I've saved the page to my favorites because I generally like to hear songs several times, you are quite accomplished and a very beautiful setup as well, Thank You very much, I will be back, really love your music, and style,excellent...Reg

[KrisShred]

Hi Reg, thanks for taking the time to listen! I'm glad you like them songs from 2005/2006. My newer songs (my next album) will be more catchy (the singing melody, more hooks). At the moment I'm trying to write more 'hits' haha ;D For example 'You Took You Away'. (nevertheless my old songs are precious to me). Thanks a bunch! :o)

Kris

[crystalboy90]

Kris

[Viktoria3]

I don't know if I have ever commented on this before? I like it. I really enjoyed the words. This was great, but I can hear how much more you have improved since then. Aww one of your first vids, your just a baby here. You look adorable, so cute. You have a strong, angelic face. I like the way your hair falls to the side of your face. ;)

Love, Vally

[KrisShred]

I don't know if I have improved. Maybe I don't see it (no objective view). Anyways.. Yeah, the song is nice. The version on my website is much better of course. This video .. hm.. it's a pain for me cuz the sound was so bad.. Have to redo this some day.. Tschüss :)

Kris

[Haeinscute]

This song is awesome! That's cool that others made covers of this song. 5 Star song. I think I becoming a fan of yours haha

[KrisShred]

Thank you Haeins. You can listen to a way better version on my website ;)

Kris

Kris

[lizzie225]

herrlich! vor allem der refrain!!

[KrisShred]

Hey Liz =) Danke schoen. Die Aufnahme ist nicht sonderlich gut, von daher werd ich den Song irgendwann mal neu aufnehmen (hab ich mir zumindest vorgenommen). Gruss,

Kris

[ottodix]

fantasic song with powerful lyrics!!

[KrisShred]

Thanks Otto :) Much appreciate your words :)

It's so good to get positive feedback on one's own song - motivating :o)

Kris

[GDLR]

May I ask what you are thinking about when you sing? You have such a faraway look in your eyes, like your mind is somewhere else. I'ts nice, adds to the feeling of your music.

Vally

[KrisShred]

Hehe.. This video I made at a friends (MelleStar) and I just looked into the screen reading the lyrics while the webcam stood more close to me ;)

When I'm playing and singing songs I usually try to put feeling into all the performance, or expression. The melody or music is more important to me than the lyrics. The more often you play a song the less touching the lyrics will become, I think.

Kris

[GDLR]

Oh, I see. Makes good sense to me. I can tell you are really into the muic. Thanks for the info.

Vally

[bentonio07]

Hi Kris, as always very emotional and beautiful performance, beautiful voice: hypnotizing!

Unique mixture of styles. Deine Phrasierung erinnert mich an irgendeinen dt. Liedermacher, komm aber nicht drauf wer. Is auch wurscht, denn es letztlich sehr eigen im urspr. Sinne! Toll!!!

Jetzt guck ich mal Pattersons Version, müsste eigentlich Hausputz machen, Mensch ;-)

[KrisShred]

Thank you Ben for the kind comment :) Vielleicht werde ich den Song noch mal frisch aufnehmen, da diese Aufnahme eine meiner ersten Videos war und der Sound leider eher schlecht als recht ist. Video ist mir gar nicht so wichtig, aber beim Sound bin ich doch sehr anspruchsvoll ;) Schoenen Gruss,

Kris

[truepker]

i wont argue with that eh..

[KrisShred]

That's wise hehe

[truepker]

its terrible haha

[KrisShred]

Ah well, it might not fit your taste, but it's not terrible :P Others do like it ;o)

[blandmangopatterson]

ive just been and looked at your videos chap - three subscribers, ha ha - your terrible but you got no heart either .... ha ha ha. knob.

[KrisShred]

Whatever.. ;) I try to redo this someday cuz this is one of my first videos and I the sound isn't very good.

By the way.. the 'Shred' in my nickname derives from my real last name. It's a similar word ;o)

[blandmangopatterson]

i was talking to truepeker kris

[KrisShred]

Yeah I know ;) And I was talking to you Patterson haha.. ;o)

[truepker]

nothing is shred in this video...

[KrisShred]

That's right ;o)

[Mused888]

Hey dude, I watched like all your videos, you're talented. I love your songs, marry me!

Ana xx

[KrisShred]

Thx Ana 'Mused' ;) for watching, really appreciated! Come visit me and I will play for you on guitar, and maybe marry you?! ;D

[Mused888]

And I love Germany <3

[KrisShred]

Ever been there? I've never been to England but hopefully I'll get there some day

[carolvegas]

Hallo spatz! :D

I recorded some times your music today but none was so good how much you! ;)

I will continue trying!!

Beijoo!!

[KrisShred]

Hey Spatzl ;D

I'm so glad you like my songs. I'm really looking forward to seeing your version of The Shiniest Eyes :)

Do it your own way and it will be good - I am sure ;) Most important -I think- is to keep the feeling with it - what you felt when you listened to the song the very first times =) Keep it up, big BEIJO!!

Kris

[carolvegas]

I have this song in mp3 and heard many many times! Is my favourite of your songs!! =)

Congratulations for your talent! You're amazing!

Beijo!! ;)

[KrisShred]

Thank you so much Carol. Glad you like it - it's also one of my favorites of my songs (not this YouTube version, but the version on my homepage;)

It's actually been a long time that I wrote another song - waiting for the Muse :D Beijos, Kris.

[Boing75]

Hört sich sehr geschmeidig an...gefällt mir !!!

[celestialsam]

When's your CD come out:P?

[KrisShred]

[Jill74]

A song is a way to express feelings.You wanted express the feeling of sadness and got the target.I've appreciate your song.

[KrisShred]

Than you Jill, very kind :)

[Junglepockets]

The songs a bit boring mate.

[KrisShred]

Depends on what you listen to within the song, and the mood you're in. The music is more of a sad song, not that enthusiastic in fact.

But everyone to his taste.. ;)

Thx 4 listening

[lorezbrainwork2]

Auch schön...besonders der Wechsel von 4/4tel in 6/8tel hat mich überzeugt...

Gruss von der Domplatte

LoRez
