Well, some good came out of the last song. I’ve been asked to do some session work and some string arrangement for a musician/singer friend of mine in Toronto. He says as an indie artist, on average he pays his programmers $20/hr. or $300 flat, because it’s usually 15hrs. worth of work per song. So I need to think about what it’s worth. That could probably be a good source of income, I’m thinking that maybe I should start doing session work and song writing for other people and also start looking for ways to get into doing some soundtrack work. Get my own compositions available for licensing deals as well as start doing the live shows.. Anyway, I really need to start thinking about the income sources.
If you don’t mind, this is probably the mushiest thing I’ve ever written. LMFAO.
My work of the last couple days. I decided to try Matt’s idea.. This is a musical idea that I pretty much played out on bass and sung freestyle without thinking about it too much. It came to me pretty easily and I got it recorded as quick as I could although I’m not sure how it exactly relates to the current situation in my life. lol. The rest was spent on the string arrangement. This is a rough draft.
This Way Forever

Every time you look at me, I hope to see. See that look in your eyes that makes me feel complete. Everything I thought I had to say, suddenly vanishes and leaves me in defeat.
Because I have you in my arms, I’m happy and I pray that it will be this way forever.
For everything I ever wished that I could have been and everything we ever hope we can one day be. I see that the World make sense when I see it through your eyes. Destiny has called me to you and everything feels like it’s right.
Because I have you in my arms, I’m happy and I pray that it will be this way forever.
I found the truth in this moment, I learned about the greatest gift God gave the World. I seen all my hopes and dreams come to live, when I opened up my heart, I saw the light. Every time I look into your eyes, I see the signs and I know without a thought. I know without a doubt how it’s meant to be.
