Story Behind The Song

My band plays at a Harvest Fair in the fall. This song is inspired by the event. Just one mic one performance on guitar. This is a bare bones presentation.

Song Description

A vocal and guitar solo one mic recording. It captures the heart and soul of this song. Often times the first takes of a recording work best. There is so much to think about when writing a song , so many places to take it. This recording is un cluttered ,bare bones and honest . Recorded while the song was still in it's new born state.

Lyrics

All The Colors Are Shining Through
© Bob Stump 2018

We're all going down to the Harvest Fair
just about the whole town is there
red, yellow, brown, black and white too
all the colors are shinning through

there's a rainbow river of people swaying to a country band
the fiddler calls for another reel and we circle round hand in hand

red yellow brown black and white too
dance in the sun howl at the moon
I wish the whole world could see
all the colors that are shinning through

I get home flip on the news wonder if the the world's gone mad
then I think man all those talking heads in between Big Pharma ads
well they've got it all wrong they could use a new song ,
guess they never been down to the fair

there's a rainbow river of people swaying to a country band
the fiddler calls for another reel and we circle round hand in hand

red yellow brown black and white too
dance in the sun howl at the moon
you could see the hope that's in the world
when all the colors are shinning through
