Smile (Though Your Heart is Breaking)

[arbonac]

F'n enchanting! (It's hard to be macho when using that word".

[jimmymiata]

How a piece of music can bring out more than one emotion, the beauty of "smile" make me wanna cry and smile at the same time, these two fundamental emotions fight for supremacy, in the meantime tears of pure joy find their way down my cheeks. Bravo for an unforgettable melody

[cinderbutte]

@jimmymiata thanks so much for the comment!

[BolivianNeko]

I don't know why and for the life of me I can't remember...but when I hear this song I want to cry. And this version is just beautiful. Like walking through a forest with the sun shining raining its rays through the leaves.

[cinderbutte]

[atozinco]

(part 2 )

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

[atozinco]

Cinderbutte - what reverberation unit do you use? I want to buy a reverb unit to use while I am playing my recorders but I really don't know what I need to buy. Can I buy any reverb unit at all (even one for guitars)? Thank you.

Also - do you add the reverb later or while you are playing?

[cinderbutte]

Hi atozinco, I use the iMovie software to create the reverb. I try to duplicate the echo I get playing in the tunnel in Golden Gate Park, where I've been going to play for 25 years.

[anderas]

nice :)

[Calhasmovies]

[pianogirl91210]

to cinderbutte-

thank you for putting this up. i sang this, like countryheart2007, when my best friend matthew, died. this made me cry. but thank you so so much. you are so amazingly talented.

[tallyho2008]

It's a wonderfully haunting version!

[samsungredpen17]

that doesnt sound like a recorder? looks looks like one though.

[atozinco]

It is a wooden tenor recorder, so it sounds exactly 1 octave lower than the school recorders (and uses the same fingering).

[happymimi16]

sounds cool on that instrument

[Chantesuta]

Wow. It sounds beautiful. What instrument is that?

[Kandeeflossx]

Recorder

[BringingBackDisco]

its so moving

[FloresDeLaPrimavera]

Beautiful! I love the haunting sound.

[rockandrollwaltzer]
