Melissa Polinar "Embrace Hope" @ Patrona Studios (original)

**if it says "no longer available" - view in High Quality**

This wasn't an actual recording session (in other words, we weren't laying down a track).

This song was originally recorded @ Sound Vault Studios (TX) for Sound Vault Sessions EP 2007 (available on iTunes!). However, Patty Cabrera (Patrona Studios owner - located riverside, ca) and I had some time to just chill around after our actual sessions and got to scratch record/sing other tunes while we were at it (August 2008).

Singing into that microphone felt very inspiring so I had to try singing this song for the sake of singing! Totally rad. =)


here's the lyrics:

"Embrace Hope"
(polinar)

staring at the ground
instead of looking ahead
heavy shoulders keep weighing you down
like all of us travelers
traveling along
weariness, loneliness won't leave us alone

like seasons
they come and go though at times they linger
like water poured on my hands
and dripping through my fingers
all these things will pass us by

Chorus:
let go, embrace hope
let go (of) all of your fears
and erase all those tears
let go, embrace hope
one day peace will find you where you are
and realize home is not that far
so just let go, embrace hope

nothing's for sure
when doubt gets around
you can't help but feel so confused
good thing there is faith
and good thing there is love
there is strength in the journey to come

like listening to a sweet, soft and tender whisper
like standing tall in the midst of rain under a shelter
better days are on the way
(chorus)

Girl..... you just made my ears stop and take a listen, in surprise.

I am a vocal performance major, been singing my whole life and lets just say that I am a "Snob" when it comes to voices.

It takes alot to impress me....

and you have done just that.

props to you! You have crazy awesome control, and your tone is beautiful.

Almost perfect.

Keep on doing what you do, sing your heart out and I am SURE that I will one day see your name in lights.

Rock On,

Liza
