Settlements (original) by Daniela Andrade

[bhelliom3]

I'm always so afraid of listening to originals by artists whose voices I love because I worry that they'll be horrible but your originals are absolutely incredible.

[ailbher96]

[AbigailKim96]

[Kaheyteebug]

*Goes from the left side of the desk to the right* See that? It moved me. =]

[LoubiiLUST]

I usually can't stand the original songs people who usually do covers put up, but your's are the most beautiful i have even heard

[amandasnaplife]

....and I thought your covers were phenomenal.

[CreamyzZ]

THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ELMASLAD]

Exquisite,Daniela.You have honed your craft very well with guitar and voice in total harmony. I love your delivery and your voice captivates me.have you ever listened to the Scottish singer/guitarist ,Dougie Maclean ? I prefer you by far but also love the peaceful sound in his singing and playing.

[RyanHendersonMusic]

your music is so beautiful, i adore it

[AMAhits]

You have a fantastic voice! Keep up the great work:)

[eva1994jc]

nothing else like your voice daniela. <3

[ALionForALamb]

This is possibly my favourite of your songs so far:)...I love the lyrics <3

[BlankRainbow]

You have such a beautiful soul. =)

[Elasticretreat]

This song is so nice, for those interested the guitar part is the 'clawhammer' picking pattern (Dust in the Wind).

Chords for verse (intro/interlude):

A Asus2 I Dma7 (bar chord on 5th fret) A I Dma7 A I Esus4 E

Chorus: Dma7 I A Asus2 I Dma7 I A Dmin I Bmin I E

[UncleQuinn]

awesome

[beneaththeairwaves]

This will surely be a great OST for House or Grey's Anatomy. ^^

[KaviSaysHi]

This song is so beautiful :') it brought tears to my eyes.... Thank you :)

[TheMusicOnline]

This melody is absolutely gorgeous! And just generally, the execution is just flawless! Perfect! And let me just say that I appreciate the kitchen sounds in the background. I definitely think it adds to the esthetic, I usually try to capture the sounds of my house in my recordings as well, or at least, I try to keep them there if I get them on accident haha

[ACMusic7]

This song blows my mind. Downloading.....

[ASonOfRevolution]

I cannot help but find myself singing along. God I love this song.

[grumpgus]

I would not at all be surprised to see you signed by a label soon. This is amazing :)

[SYLVIEBING]

[JamesChrisMusic]

[ttererauld]

@JamesChrisMusic It's: Blue Snowball

[aprilen2u]

Awe i love your voice :)

[madgurl59]

love your voice...keep on singing okidoki...

don't change the strings coz i love the sliding noise...but i u did u still have a great voice so it will be fine with me too

[JackieMessenger]

...there's a song called "Songbird," and it talks about how the songbird always sings for everyone, but the real question is "who sings for the songbird?" ...well, as a songwriter/ singer myself, it is like a gift from heaven to finally find someone that "sings for me." ...thanks daniela (seriously wipes a tear). ...your writing & singing reaches my heart & brings healing. hugs truly, jAckie messenger =)

[KarterZaher]

You are Amazing!!! Very impressive, your style is similar to Taylor Swift, Keep bringing that sweet peaceful music.

[LajoieAdam]

[NUTAC555]

Andrea Andrade? hablas espaniol?

[Mrfob23]

when there's a cute girl, there u go, and dont forget elly tran ha

[mktmic7]

very awesome

[Camass0]

Hear that random noise in the background of the song? You can get rid of that be just leaving like 3-5 seconds of saying and doing nothing while recording. Then in audacity you can highlight the section of nothing, then go to noise removal and get the noise profile

After that, highlight the entire recording and go back to noise removal and do step 2 of the process! When you do that, the noise should be completely gone, and the then you'll have REALLY professional sounding music!

Keep it up! :)

[woquini2000]

this was smokin like hillshire farms

[music6gurl4ever]

you've got an amazing voice. did you write this on your own?

You actually inspire me so much,

Never ever ever stop singing, beautiful! (:

[colbyatesometoast]

I accidentally clicked the thumbs down button, so if you see a dislike that one was a mistake.

[wildreams]

@colbyatesometoast wow, you mean you literally "missed the like button"?

[waitwhatandwhy]

@colbyatesometoast HAHAHAHAH that's the only dislike. Daniela totally wins.

[kishelb2]

i vaguely hear the lyrics and can't decide how good is it but the vocals?? meahn! you're just perfect :)

[LadyMasKerade]

Brilliant vocals!

How do you get that acoustic effect when recording?

[greggsovereasy]

Wow. Seriously. Wow. :)

[joerico89]

i love it :)

[ellorybockting]

You are getting so much better at writing your own stuff. It's such a joy to watch it all unfold. Thank you again Daniela.

[WeepingZeeGuitars]

Very Nice!

[alinfustree]

This is beautiful. Very good song!

[beverleykatherine]

what does this song mean! i love it but I want a meaning. :P i know what it means to me but i'd like to hear the real meaning. thanks i hope you answer this!

[DanielaSings]

@beverleykatherine To me, I guess it's how I look back at trying to live life. Not that i've been a crab in a hole, scared of doing anything. But there have been moments where I wish I could go back to being a child, thinking that I'm just not old enough to make these big decisions (which i still do). In a nutshell, it's about being afraid but that in the end we all grow up and finally feel our feet get a bit sturdy on the whole "who i am" matter. Only a bit though. :)

[beverleykatherine]

@DanielaSings aww, thank you Daniela :) you're stunning.

[XenonDiosmitide]

@DanielaSings IMHO, a songs meaning can be taken however you wish or however it makes you feel. There's more to songs than the words... there's emotion, feel, energy, etc. That's mostly what I listen to songs for. : )

[teddygator]

Best original song I've heard on you tube.♥

[listennnhope]

Your voice is beautiful, I love listening to you.

(:

[modernoverdrive]

That is a really pretty song.

[Devilock79]

Very beautiful song. You have a whole lot of talent and you're not too bad on the eyes! =P Just don't compromise your sound and your soul when the record companies come breaking down your door! And don't stop posting on Youtube when you become famous! That would really suck.

[millanz]

If i had the money i would love to be ur producer daniela, always beautiful, soulful stuff from u sweetheart keep em comin

[vahneszah]

Okay I love this a lot. I also love the tags.

[profwaldo]

Very comforting, that warm n' fuzzy feelin' abounds,

yet with a pinch of homesickness, it seems. imho

Wonderful guitar work and of course your voice is

beautiful, add your harmonies n' it's Magical.

Very Very nice work Daniela. I loved it ! :-))))

[Ninjarsweet]

So..when does your CD come out??? Cause seriously..I've been waiting ^^

[dippydawg827]

some people argue that round wound have better tone or something. I think it adds to the style. Beautiful as always Daniela.

[ePianoman]

Perfect song to relax with :)

[IamChong1024]

I am jealous of the man who gets to listen to you talk to him, just to tell him how your day went.

Awesome song by the way.

[mickaellenel]

really sweet !!

very nice !!

[mikidou99]

Wow Daniela!

This sounds soooo good!

Wow I feel great now haha!

Mucial therapy!

[ASonOfRevolution]

You're a very talented musician.

[bboyxchristian]

[tokmind]

Well done

[IRTOMM]

holy crap this is so nice.

[Rai7ana007]

oh and WHY ARE YOU NOT SIGNED YET?????

[rathor1622]

@Rai7ana007 Because she doesn't sing pop, dance like a stripper, or dress like a hoochie mama. Although I do hope she "makes it" financially so she can dedicate herself to making others smile if she wants to =D

[Rai7ana007]

This is really inspiring, I loved this song and it makes me want to write my own :) , AMAZING JOB.

[shirkinerd]

songs like these are why i believe in you

[amyderosia]

Beautiful song! I'm loving the lyrics and your voice. Especially the lines "I've found beauty between the lines of what I've come to be". Great Job.

[TheRedNoise]

This is stunning, Daniela. As always, thank you for sharing

[TillThenPlease]

Cool lyrics Daniela. I like when songs have substance and are somewhat of a journey, rather than just a repetitive thought. Very good. This is the kind of music I want to listen to while sitting on the porch on a summer evening.

[shirkinerd]

songs like these are why i believe in you

[Alissik]

breathtaking....<3

[marcopolo3120]

You have such a heavenly voice

Love this song

[POST003]

Could listen to you all night long.......

[956miggz]

buy flatwound strings to get rid of that sliding noise on the strings :]

nice song

[DanielaSings]

@956miggz good tip! thank you <3

[rathor1622]

@DanielaSings I like the sliding noise. =D

[csikkmusic]

@DanielaSings The sliding noise is one of my favorite sounds of the guitar. Its the main thing that lets you know that someone is playing the guitar live. Great song and I love the chord progressions. ;)

[RetardedEmotions]

@DanielaSings I actually enjoy the sliding noise! It's soo cozy! And the song is wonderful <3

[kennethlopezloo]

@DanielaSings i reckon that sliding noise makes acoustic songs sound cooler (:

[beverleykatherine]

@956miggz i like the sound of the sliding! it's so "real".. lol

[Jennnnnx34]

@956miggz i actually like the sliding noise. it adds a little something to this song, i think.

[madgurl59]

@956miggz i dont know why but i love the sliding noise ~~ the flawed make the song sound wonderful....tats what i thought =)

[Theoutcomer10]

Lovely :)

Could you possibly cover " Rewind " Paolo Nutini ?

[nomnomSam]

Amazing.

[makesomethingup615]

This is really great, the lyrics are so beautiful. Definitely posting it on facebook for others to hear :) Love all your originals.

[Filiz2805]

Daniela, this is soooooo beautiful!!! i dream of a collab with you...i know this might never happen...but just the dream is amazing!! you are a talented young woman and you can be so proud of yourself!!!!

[therealCiCa]
