Story behind the song
Here's a song I wrote and recorded 19/08/11 (from scratch) with the help of Propellerhead's Record (and Goldwave for the final mp3) and a newly acquired Saffire 6 USB midi interface by Focusrite.
Bass Guitar (Squier), Acoustic Guitar (Applause), Lyrics and Vocals by Neil Paddock,
Other tracks you might find a similarity with:
"Desire" by U2 & "Born To Be Wild" by Steppen Wolf
See if you can guess which track the drums were inspired by...
Drums by Rod Morgenstein through use of Sonic Reality Drummer Tracks
Drums Produced by Ken Scott through use of Sonic Reality Drummer Tracks
After a pretty intensive few days, this is how the track sounds after Day 3 (21/08/11). The major difference is the middle section, which starts "Search Your Heart". I also used Record's Block feature to compile this version. The idea is that you allocate all your clips and call them verse, chorus, bridge and so on, and can then just pick the relevant chunk of data and draw it in for however long you want. I was going to add some cellos or a sampled Mellotron, but I haven't. The mix is a lot brighter than my first version, no maximising required this time in Goldwave. I think there's a couple of vocal parts in the first version that didn't make it across. It's now 3 mins 44 seconds.
PS on February 22nd 2012 I remastered the song with T-Racks3
Lyrics
Time to make a change,
Let’s make it tonight… Let’s make it tonight…
Time to make a change,
Let’s make it tonight… Let’s make it tonight…
It’s gonna be alright! [It’s gonna be alright!]
It’s gonna be all night! [It’s gonna be all night!]
It’s gonna be quite alright!
Baby when you’re by my side…
Time to make a change,
Step into the light, Step into the light
Time to make a change,
Step into the light, Step into the light…
It’s gonna be alright! [It’s gonna be alright!]
It’s gonna be all night! [It’s gonna be all night!]
It’s gonna be quite alright!
Baby when you’re by my side…
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
Time to make a change!
Time to make a change,
Let’s make it tonight… Let’s make it tonight…
Time to make a change,
Step into the light, Step into the light!
It’s gonna be alright! It’s gonna be alright!
It’s gonna be all night! It’s gonna be all night!
It’s gonna be alright!
Baby when you’re by my side…
It’s High Time…
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
Time to make a change!
Search your heart
Play your part [It’s High Time!]
Make a start It’s High Time!]
Time to make a change!
Time to make a change!
And now I see, [It’s High Time!]
If it’s to be, [It’s High Time!]
It’s up to you, [It’s High Time!]
(and me)
Time to make a change!
Make a change
Make a change
Time to make a change,
Let’s make it tonight… Let’s make it tonight…
Now it’s time to make a change
Step into the light , We can shine so bright
It’s gonna be alright! [It’s gonna be alright!]
It’s gonna be all night! It’s gonna be all night!
It’s gonna be quite alright!
Baby when you’re by my side…
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
It’s High Time!
Time to make a…
Time to make a…
Time to make a change!
