Default "Do You Wonder" (new original)

Updated February 4th, 2018





Do You Wonder

Do you stare up at the stars and wonder
Are you frightened by the lightning and thunder

Is the writing on the wall?
Are you headed for a fall of your own making

Do you stand outside the door and linger
As the time slips quickly through your fingers

From your first step to the last
Never knowing what was cast, or what was breaking

Do you dwell upon your vain endeavors
Will you scatter to the winds forever

Should your dreams come to reprieve
Are you ready to believe that something matters?

Thanks. Using a decent stereo mike definitely helps. Need to continue to work on recording technique. Trial and error. Having that Bluetooth remote capability between camera and phone comes in handy.

I took another swipe at this original of mine, "Do You Wonder", recorded this morning (February 4th, 2018). I lowered the key a half-step (bringing it a little better into my natural range), and left both audio sources (camera and Reaper-rendered audio) intact, giving it what I hope was a bit of a layered effect and some texture.
