Getting my Latin groove on https://www.soundclick.com/music/songInfo.cfm?songID=14215014Another blank page, an empty mind moment Unlimited potential, no direction Earnestly intent, inspired by the stars Dark eternal waters, no reflection At odds with creation, yet I’m still compelled The spirit guides me when all logic fails What will be will be, my heart is always free I close my eyes and see... Miracles Seek deeper meaning in duality Submit to authority, be a good friend Placating poet screaming at the heavens Meaningless effort chasing the wind At odds with creation, yet I’m still compelled The spirit guides me when all logic fails What will be will be, my heart is always free I close my eyes and see... Miracles A legacy of promise An eternity that's real The time is upon us Gods Word, God's Will

Oh yeah. This is good.
I like the verses and the bridge best. I'm carried along by the groove there a lot more than in the chorus.

Muchas Gracias Amigos Gavin, the only reason I decided to record this one is because I finally came up with a way to break up the song with that chorus lol... I really worked hard on getting that guitar right. I've come to find that switching from fingerpicking to strumming while recording, and still maintaining a decent tone, isn't easy. Oh well... Lol

Hey Japov. some really deep and profound thoughts in this one. almost as if you caiught my poetry bug. love the taste of latin and the story the lyrics tell. In the end God;s word.... God's will, is all that really matters, we are all just the particles of dust that formed one small speck of his mighty miracles created eons ago. Write on...right on...righteously!

it has worked for centuries. and amazingly some music can be poetry without words and some lyrics can be poetry without the proper music. we forget that most of our listeners could care less about the arrangement or the words. it is that unknown element the grabs and fascinates non-musical buyers........and that is where the fortunes lie..in that missing link that has bothing to do with the techie side of music. If i took a classic number one hit song from any decade, and played the chgords in reverse, and just made some minor changes to it, would it be a number one hit again. it would contain all of the magic that the first classic song had and yet be totally different. Hmmmmmmmmmmm???????
