Thing Called Hope (Original Song)

We had this song uploaded back in 2010, (Then called Crazy Little Thing Called Hope) but I ended up taking it down a few months ago. ( We had about 450 views at the time) There was something about the background vocals that just bugged me. I finally had a the time to re-mix it and upload it again. And I thought it would be a great follow up to Every Child's Heart.

Thing Called Hope is a re-write of a 2006 Ballard/Garner song called Hope. I loved Garner's first few lines and his bridge, which is now the ending. I did keep his theme, but most of the words are mine. I must say that Garner wrote the great line about the mother in law. I love my sweet mother in law who had a heart attack only last night. Hope Faith Love Peace and Healing to her.

I uploaded this song Jan/23/12 - I might say that my wife's mom, without having ever met me, told my wife about the photo in the paper (as seen) in my I'll Be With You Again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_aX-zUyn0o My wife then told about it. What a great mother-in-law shes has been. Today - 2/5/12, as she is on her death bed, I begin her song titled YOU. I will never forget the Joyce saw it first. Joyce pased away 2/9/12.

I also loved part of Ballard's music. However, I completely reworked it, and re-wrote new parts.

The story starts with verse 3, then moves on to 1 and 2. "A Doctor gave me a week or two to live... That's when I droped to my knees" ... and found hope." People need to find faith in hope to learn to cope.

@BloodTrucksandBeer Thank you BT&T - IF ONLY - I could have a good singer and musician sing all my songs. It is much easier to produce than sing and play by myself. And I do not like mixing.

[BloodTrucksandBeer]

What an amazing, heavy song! You really know how to write 'em (and produce 'em too)

[bearron]

@bedsitsongbird33 Thank You. You are a great songwriter too. But Brian have a better voice than I do. I would like to do more with him, but he is too busy for me.
