Leizer Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Hi there! I'm no lyricist, but I wanted to do a song (it has been 5 years since I wrote a song with lyrics) so I reached out to Daryl who I collaborated with several years ago playing violin. He accepted and it has been a real blast. He also was a great guidance in the mixing process. Thanks! My Dog Written by Staypress (lyrics) & Lasse Williamsson (music) Staypress - vocals and background vocals Lasse Williamsson - the rest While apart I thought about your face, nothing can replace, left an empty space Days and nights would never be the same, my life would be so plain without you You give me love, unconditional love You chase a ball and bark at the postman I take you walks, in all the parks And give you my food under the table Your the one that brightens up my days, in so many ways, clears my malaise When you look at me and wag your tail, my life would be so stale without you I sometimes don't feel worthy of the way you look at me The way you greet me when I open the door, Is a sight to see 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve@baselines.com Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Pretty much nothing can beat the joy a dog can give you unconditionally. Nice song! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Sprouse Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 If my dog had a voice, it would sound just like Daryl. The hook will bring you back! Nice one, enjoyed it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Cute song, I liked the violin break. Don't know if you have heard Scott Henderson's Dog Party album, it was all dog themed rock/blues with some pretty funny lyrics (he's an epic guitar player too) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhonoBrainer Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Whatever the next Disney movie is about dogs, this should be in it. Your chord changes with that awesome melody, just terrific old-school pop writing. The modulation was clever, and straight into an instrumental retelling of the hook - great idea there. And the mix was very hi-fido. Great collab, great vocals, great talents that should be more widely appreciated! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy j Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 "Friendly ..., upbeat, wholesome and fun" indeed. This is a wonderful melodic popish song. Production and performance sound great! As one who enjoyed the "love" of two dog and lost them both, I can certainly relate to the lyrics. This was a listening treat! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
