You had nothing to say

Story Behind The Song

The melody and overall idea for the song came to me while recovering in a hospital bedroom post op. I was in a really bad car accident. I had broken one of my cervical vertebrae in my neck and it also had slipped out of alignment with the rest of the bones in my neck. Surgery was needed to fix the problem. For some unknown reason shortly after waking up from surgery i started humming the melody. In no time I had most of the song arranged in my head. The lyrics came to me fairly quickly as well. Because of the moody feel of the track people assume it is a sad song. In reality it is a happy to be alive and still kicking song. In pain, scared and full of post op morphine but very happy to be alive.....

Lyrics

Trying to reach the ground.
turning upside down
(Yeah eah yeah).....

Trying to reach the ground,
as the world came crashing down
You had nothing to say.....

Trying to catch the sounds,
of places left behind.
Trying to read the signs,
that echo through my mind.....

That echo through my mind.....

(Guitar Solo/Instrumental)

Beautiful guitar. Well recorded.

This is a very short, but curious song. It's strength is in the sheer beauty of it. I found myself focusing on the smooth, peaceful instrumentation and the soothing, soaring background vocals. It's an art piece. Probably created just for the simple joy of revealing that which fills the heart. Bravo!

very nice song. and done well

Beautiful melodies and harmonies, very well done. You have the ability to convey a lot of emotion in very few words, not an easy thing to do.

Loved the overall vibe of this ! Some lovely harmonies throughout .

Very nice job. Loved it!

The first thing that catches me is the pleasant, easy to follow melody. Not just any new age melody, either. It's crafted well so that it sounds unique. The song is meditative, contemplative, ethereal. The guitar and female vocals are exquisite, all arranged masterfully. I enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed this piece

:20 seconds in and it's great, there's your hook, by 40 seconds I hear your influences. Really nice lead vocal sound and style. Very sweet vocal harmonies... heck there are great harmonies and sonic wonders everywhere. Such a great guitar recording The love put into the electric guitar solo theme, so good. Female vocals are inspired and heartfelt. Is that cello? and piccolo? The lyrics match the song so well... one complements the other so well.

Very relaxing, chilling, and haunting piece. Wonderful harmonies and background vocals, as well as instrumentation. A very great, memorable riff. Not usually the kind of music I listen to, so I couldn't tell you who out there today it sounds like, but go back a few decades and it sounds a little like Simon and Garfunkel meets the Moody Blues. Hardest part was trying to guess the title. It could go about a dozen ways. I thought about "Dreams", because it almost sounds like it could be something in a dream. Really good work.

nice job keep up the good work

This song has a nice sweet song. It is very relaxing. I like it. The vocals and background vocals are great. The instruments are great also. I like the beautiful guitar picking and the nice sweet melodic leads. Nice song. Keep it up!!
