Lee Shapiro Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Once again, I wrote this song specifically for a friend of mine who is a pretty decent female vocalist. Unfortunately she had to back out for personal reasons. So I have this song, with my scratch (scratchy) vocals, just sitting there waiting for a talented vocalist to do it justice. I tried using Bandlab as a collaboration tool, but female rock/pop vocalists are in very short supply in that group. So if you know of a decent female vocalist willing to work with me on this song, please let me know. THANKS!https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=13977870 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeringAmps Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Right of the bat, the percussion, the B3; brilliant! Now the bad news, I can't squeeze hard enough to help ya; nor do I have a first rate vocalist for you. Sorry, cool tune though; some one will come along. Small niggle, the guitar solo is a bit "thin" sounding; needs some, well you know, that part you squeeze... Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhonoBrainer Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I can melodyne pitch up my Tom Waits impersonation if you like. ? Do you live/work in NYC? If so, I'm jealous. And if so, you've got more of a line on female vocs than me. Again It's got a nice groove! Good luck with bringing it home . . . cheers, -Tom 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garybrun Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Nice song. Dig the groove. I f you want to send me the backing track and a copy of the lyrics I'll send you a recording with a female vocalist maybe you could use. I know two over here in Norway who would fit that gender. All the best with this one. Gary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can download the wav files of both the song with temp vocals, and without any vocals here:https://www.bandlab.com/leee292 If you can find anyone to lay down vocals for me, I'd appreciate it if they could record the vocal (and backing) tracks on separate tracks from the music. Here are the lyrics and the timings for the vocals: “A Lifetime of Love In My Heart” LYRICS and TIMING SHEET INTRO 0:00 – 0:16 VERSE: I got that feeling deep in my heart 0:16 - 0:32 Whenever I think of you Even though we’ve been years apart It’s that feeling I know to be true PRECHORUS: - 0:32 – 0:48 Every time I hear your name Or see your face in my mind It fans that burning flame In my heart all the time CHORUS: 0:48 – 1:05 You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart VERSE: 1:05 – 1:21 Oh I know we both have moved on Living our separate lives But the love we shared isn’t all gone I can’t forget no matter how I tried. PRECHORUS: 1:21 – 1:37 So much love, so long ago Enough to last a lifetime I know you wish it wasn’t so Well baby so do I CHORUS: 1:37 – 1:53 You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart BRIDGE: 1:53 – 2:10 I know I carry a torch One that won’t go out Time passes more and more But the love never fades out. SOLO 2:10 – 2:42 Chorus (2X) 2:42 – 3:15 You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart You give me – A lifetime of love in my heart Ooh Yeah – A lifetime of love in my heart Ooh Yeah – A lifetime of love in my heart SOLO 3:15 – 3:47 Outtro 3:47 – 4:08 (out) [Improvise chorus] Edited January 20, 2020 by Lee Shapiro additional info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they can feel free to mess around with the melody line, add harmony parts, or whatever they want. My vocals are just a rough sketch, mostly to get the timing right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
