http://www.reverbnation.com/openmikemusic/song/18823342-love-nanetteLove, Nanette Copyright 2013 OpenMikeMusic V1 All I know is she’s still gone although the years have passed away. But the words she said still linger on, while mine can't find the light of day. V2 Her heart was ready to love, again, but mine was still miles away. While I gave all I had to give, she took all she had to take. ch I just wanted to love the best, love like she's the last one left, but I guess I wasn’t ready yet, to love Nanette. V3 She understood and gave me room, to find the heart she knew I had. I found her one, though slightly used, but she deserved much more than that. repeat chorus

Hi Mike,
Well isn't just like they say. Once you add a melody and music sometimes the whole package just comes together, I think the idea you were trying for may not be necessary, as far as the bridge and the sudden reveal, it works just as it stands, great emotion in the singing, I might only suggest to bring up the vox a little in the mix and perhaps add some background vocals in harmony to add some deeper emotion, but a fine start as it stands!

Hi Mike,
Oh, this was fun to watch going from forum 3 to here! It sounds great! It is interesting how when you read the words, the uncertainty of the situation sounds more pronounced than when you sing the words!
Very nice, very cool! Lisa

Well, now aren't we modest!!!??? Because you and Derek spotted the holes, took the time to point them out, I was able to reassess and determine, (I think correctly) that less was more in this instance. Kudos to you and Derek for taking the time !! Had you not, it would have sat longer...and perhaps forever. Simplifying it brought it to number one on my "need to record list" and put the guitar/DAW in action.
Thank you, Lisa
