#92 Most Discussed (Today) Music.
This is take #1 of the song I posted as 'Man Of Stone', a few weeks ago. It had generally better vocals, but I rejected it as there was some sibilance. However . . it does have the benefit of being a WHOLE MINUTE shorter . . .so I overdubbed some improvised, electric guitar 'fills' with my 'twangtastic' Fender Telecaster, and I quite like it. See what you think :]

STONY-HEARTED MAN © Stuart fretwell 2009

I AM HERE
CAN'T YOU SEE ME?
NOTHING, NOW,
CAN DEFEAT ME

FEELING STRONG
FIGHTING BACK, NOW
CAN'T GO ON
IF YOU WALK AWAY FROM ME . . .X2

I'M NOT LOST
SINCE I FOUND YOU
I'M RE-BORN
WHEN YOU HOLD ME

LOVING YOU
WILL PROTECT ME
WE ARE STRONG
AND WE'LL ALWAYS BE THIS WAY . . X2

Transition:

THE SUN IS IN YOUR SMILE . . .
LET ME SEE IT FOR A WHILE
(BE)'FORE THE CLOUDS COME . . .ROLLING BACK AGAIN . . .

OH, BABY, CAN'T YOU SEE
(THAT) YOUR LOVING SETS ME FREE . .
WITHOUT YOU, I'M JUST LIVING IN FEAR

Chorus:

I'LL FORGIVE YOU, FOREVER
IN ALL KINDS OF WEATHER
YOU KNOW THAT IT'S TRUE . .
I'M ALWAYS LOVING YOU

I NEED YOU COMPLETELY
SO THESE BAD DAYS, THEY WON'T BEAT ME
NO STONY-HEARTED MAN
WILL TEAR-APART MY PLANS

'ILL BE THERE . . . I'LL BE THERE . .
I'LL BE THERE . . . I'LL BE THERE . .
SINGING SONGS THAT ALWAYS MAKE YOU SMILE

Bridge:
AND, SOMEDAY, WE WILL FIND
A VERY SPECIAL KIND . . .
OF LOVE THAT LASTS FOREVER . . .AND A DAY

I'LL FORGIVE YOU, FOREVER
IN ALL KINDS OF WEATHER
YOU KNOW THAT IT'S TRUE . .
I'M ALWAYS LOVING YOU

I NEED YOU COMPLETELY
THESE BAD DAYS, THEY WON'T BEAT ME
NO STONY-HEARTED MAN
WILL TEAR-APART MY PLAN

SOMEDAY, WE WILL FIND
A VERY SPECIAL KIND . . .
OF LOVE THAT LASTS FOREVER . . .AND A DAY

I LOVE YOU SO
I LOVE YOU SO . .

NO STONY-HEARTED MAN
WILL TEAR-APART MY PLANS


So this is a live version, recorded directly into Garageband - on an iMac G4 - using a 'Tapco' Link usb interface with 'Mackie' pre-amps. My 1970's yamaha FG150 was mic'd with a Sony ECM-NV1 short-stick condenser, borrowed from my video cam, and vocals went through a Samson CO1 condenser mike. Lead 'fills' overdubbed using a 1980's model Fender-Japan '62 custom Telecaster
