I think I feel comfortable enough with you all to start posting my material...

 

About the Song: This song is called "Sigh." I consider it to be the first complete song I've ever written. Its also one of my most mellow songs. Its a home-made song; I recorded it in my basement using very little equipment, yet it sounds pretty clear. Not all my songs sound like this, I think this song in particular called for this specific mood, with whispery, almost tired vocals and no drums.

 

A quick warning: its a very sensitive song; I wrote it about suicidal friends and losing loved ones. Its one of my most personal songs, and I thought I'd share it with you all. I just thought, since some of you are tired of drama, that I'd warn you about the song before I'd throw it at you.

 

Here's the link to the song. Hope you enjoy!

OMG Chad... as you know I cried as I read the lyrics... and whew.. I heart this song... it's beautiful! Oh, and I love your voice. :)

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

 

Thankyou!!!

 

Quick question, do you think my voice sounds like anyone else's?

:D

 

Hmm, lets see... well, hehe.. I was little taken by your brilliancy, so no one really popped into my head. :) But when you sing sigh as in the actual word it reminds me a little of radiohead, and oddly enough the band Switchfoot just popped into my head... hmm

 

HOWEVER, you totally have something incredible going... it's all you... "it's all happening". :D

 

Toddles

Switchfoot, hmm... I've been thinking about covering "Only Hope"

 

Thanks, If only I didnt play concerts ONLY in Georgia, I'd invite everyone. Concerts are my specialty, I'm totally new at recording.

Well, if you ever come to Canada... I shall go to a Chad concert. :)

 

Oh, and do it... "Only Hope"... I likey! :)

 

As for recording... seriously, I wouldn't be able to tell.. you're stellar!

Wow Chad, what a wonderful song. You have such a beautiful voice.

It's a shame you only play in Georgia... ;)
