UNDER STARLIGHT

Liner Notes

Song 15--which I plan to be my last this season. But who knows...?

It's been a great season. Still traumatized that we won't have 50/90 in the future (ever?) Always been one of the high points of the year for me--as FAWM is and has certainly been this year. I enjoyed listening to all of your songs ! ❤️

Lyrics

UNDER STARLIGHT

Words & Music By Jerry Pettit Facebook.com/JerryPettitMusic

You said you'll meet me here Under starlight You said you'll make it clear What feels right Well I can't tell No, I can't tell somehow If this magic spell Will last until dawn

You say the moment's pure In moonlight glow You say you're feeling sure While I don't know Well I can't tell No, I can't tell somehow If this magic spell Is real or just a dream

I might fall too fast Into something new I might want this to last More than I should do

INSTRUMENTAL INTERLUDE

You say the time is now Under starlight You say you'll show me how Love feels right Well I can't tell No, I can't tell somehow If this magic spell Will change everything

Let's take this chance Maybe find romance Moving so slow Maybe find romance Maybe find romance

Much appreciate listening to your songs with headphones (anytime I can). Beautiful arrangement and backing track. Your vocal and the piano really shine.

Wow, I'm enjoying listening to this, what a great production. Super vocals too and love the harmonies. This vibe reminds me of Roy Orbison or the Everly Brothers. Those piano lines are very nice.

I'm loving this one Jerry. Your voice is fantastic, its very dreamy and romantic, I love it, this is one of your best. Great arrangement with the instruments

Somber and sweet. This would fit a break-up scene in romantic comedy as well as the soundtrack for the sweet happy ending. Really lovely melodies and words.

I hope this isn't your last one, but then I never want it to be your last! I love the soft slower pace and the beauty of it!!

I know what you mean re 50/90...I'm going to be lost without it too. That said, this is probably my favourite of your songs this season! Something about the lullaby style of bass and piano just made me feel so relaxed and happy.

Had to believe it will be a whole year until we meet again. I actually prefer 50/90 over FAWM - longer, slower pace and I feel more of a connection to the community with more interaction. This song really captures our loss of 50/90. So poignant! Perfect way to end your best season since I’ve been around!

I think you will have more songs before fawm finishes. I'm already not to have 50/90. Maybe people can connect via Facebook and post links from different sites and give each other listens, prompts, collaborate. It won't be the same but it's better than just wait for the whole year. Enjoyed listening to your new song 🎵
