Water

Liner Notes

#folktronica #pop #downtempo

Hail, beloved FAWMers! Here's another tidbit from my daily doodle challenge. It's only a half-song, but I'm really happy with it.

Lyrics

Give me something to hold on to I give you my heart to keep with you

Some people, they don’t understand Slips through their hands like sand

And I’m no smooth talker This didn’t go the way I thought No maps, no paths, no author You’re swimming through my head Like water

Great vocals, and great processing on the vocals. I'm always a sucker for slant rhymes, and "talker" "author" and "water" (and I guess "thought", now that I rescan) make a wonderful combination. "Maps" and "paths" too. Love the complexity of wanting something "to hold onto", not something that "slips through . . . hands like sand" and getting something "like water."

This has such a cool off-beat rhythm to it. Your vocal's so smooth, definitely fits the theme. Write the rest! Kthnx? 😀

The electronic sounds drew me in from the get-go. And I love the melody. The lyrics are so evocative, too! Great start!

Oooo, love the sound you’ve created here! This definitely feels like a concept that’s worth developing further.
