Title: Love Will Find Its Way
Post by: Jambrains on Dec 01, 2024, 07:46 PM
Good to see the forum up and running again! Let's get the ball rolling then shall we?
This one was inspired by the story of Kafka and the little girl's lost doll.

Love Will Find Its Way (https://soundcloud.com/jambrains/love-will-find-its-way?si=ca3786f9d6c14f69bcdf394c76f73c7d&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing)

Waves upon the shore
they take and then they give
In the ebb and flow
we learn how to live
What we think is lost
might return anew
In the cycle of our days
love will see us through

Everything we love
will slip into the past
But love will circle back
no shadows ever last
And though we say goodbye
to all we hold so dear
Love will find its way
wipe away each bitter tear

Through the changing tide
and the passing years
We collect the fragments
of laughter and of tears
Every loss we face
leaves an open space
For love to fill again
in a new embrace

Everything we love
will slip into the past
But love will circle back
no shadows ever last
And though we say goodbye
to all we hold so dear
Love will find its way
wipe away each bitter tear

We walk through life
with open hearts
though sometimes roads divide
The moments shared
the bonds we build
remain with us inside
Through the hardest days
and the longest nights
when hope is in decline
Love will find us all
in mysterious ways
to light our lives again

Everything we love
will slip into the past
But love will circle back
no shadows ever last
And though we say goodbye
to all we hold so dear
Love will find its way
wipe away each bitter tear

When the road gets rough
and you've lost your way
Hold on to the love that's been
it will come back someday

@Jambrains, really neat tune and fabulous recording and production.

Got that pop/rock crossover working just right!

Keep on keep on

Good morning, @Jambrains

My ethos when it comes to songwriting and production is that even though we are not professionals, we should always aim high and attempt to make our creations as close to commercial releases as possible.

I see this here and also with the songs posted by @mattyoungmusic and @neil connor

This song feels like a mini anthem.

Very well done and you guys have really kickstarted this forum off to a great start.

I really like the double-tracked vocals on this.  I agree with @Nick Ryder , very anthem-like. 

Wonderful production quality, fantastic vocal performance(s), well-written song and great lyrics.  You had me at "Kafka"!

Glad to hear you again!! A lot of time in silence here...
It's a wonderful song with a so nice intro preparing to what comes later. Very catchy at some parts, enjoyable vocals and guitars too. Me ha gustado mucho @Jambrains

Your stuff never disappoints, this is really anthemic with so many parts to like but I really enjoyed the drop down for the outro, great stuff.

I'll try and review this again as my last attempt got blocked for some reason. A great intro and build. One verse in and I'm waiting for some drums, and that's exactly what you did! Someone has mentioned anthemic, and this song certainly is. I really enjoyed this. Very well performed and produced. :)

I really enjoyed that listen.
Kind of anthemic  at times it brought dylans "series of dreams" to mind.
Voice is great. Superb arrangement anc production.
A very powerful song. Well done.

Hi Johan.
I always try to keep an ear out for what you and Karen get up to musically,because it's always a great listen.

The sound on this one is right to my taste,lovely and warm.  It's a cracker,melancholic,reflective,memorable song and really what else is there.

Thanks for sharing man.   8)

Hola @Jambrains
I really liked it, it's a powerful song, I love the effect on the voice, it gives it a special smell and when the song opens the space at about minute 1 it's great!! Beautiful lyrics, with a rhyme and cadence so well supported by the arrangement. Very good work, congratulations!!!!

Merry Christmas!
