As It Was (Original Song)

in #music9 years ago (edited)

Here's a song I wrote about 15 years ago.

As It Was
After everything you said, still I wonder why all you do is cry
And you shouldn't lie in bed
Time is passing by to the other side

Later on in the summer, you hide, everyone is outside
And still I wonder why nothing seems the same as it was

So your future never came
Still you watch the sky, as you lie awake at night
Won't you come and see the day?
Well then you might decide to give life another try

Later on in the winter you hide and I'm still on the outside
Still I wonder why, when everything is just as it was
As it was

Andy... this was fantastic... beautiful... you and your music need to be heard mate... your music is truly phenomenal as are you... I loved this! A total fan here - but beside that, you are most certainly a diamond in the rough that needs to be revealed... Thanks for sharing yourself!

Thank you. When I lived in a city 10 years ago, I used to play a few open mics. I enjoyed that, but I grew up in the countryside, and have never felt like I belonged in a city. But now where we live there's not such a great music scene, and I never learnt to drive (yet!?), so very rarely perform live. It's great to be getting such support here, and really appreciated!

Baby you can drive my car.... I'll teach you, it's easy! ha-ha... All the best to you and your family Andy, and as always, I look forward to all of your forthcoming music! And BTW, great job on Steemit's version of the "Billboard" charts.... I'd be lost without it! Cheers!

So beautiful. I love the production with the strings too.

Thank you. Those were the days when I had time to spend producing my music! The open mic is great for these days though :)

This sounds amazing, proper smooth on the ears ! How you been mate? Haven't spoke in a while, has Curie stopped boosting you too now? Well to top it off Steem crashed didn't it haha, so typical...
How come you don't have as much time these days, work? It sounds like you were a pretty good producer, have you got a decent set up at home ?

Thanks man, I've only just seen this comment. It's not always easy to stay on top of them is it?!

I'm not sure whether my last song was referred to Curie and rejected due to rep score, or whether nobody referred it. Yeah, bit annoying that Steem crashed so soon, but looking at the charts, we joined just before the recent peak, so guess it's to be expected.

Back then I was single and had no real interest in money, so I hardly worked and had a lot of free time. Now my wife and I home educate our boy, it's the opposite. What I did all those years ago was with fairly basic stuff: £120 sound card (and soundfonts), a decent AKG Microphone (thanks Dad!), and the quiet house I lived in at the time.

It would be nice to get back to all that at some point! ;)

Beautiful Andy!
