https://soundcloud.com/artwhimsically-yours/not-just-a-melodyI pick up my guitar intending to strum just a melody but then thoughts of you came pouring through my brain into my finger tips and then I knew it would be more than Just a melody. More than just the standard quips and overused clichs for your love deserves so much more than any song that I can play or anything lyrics can say The only way I can repay what youve brought me Is what ought to be. A symphony 1,000 instruments inspired and two hundred voices in a choir but you have set my soul on fire all those who love will sing along all those who play an instrument will know exactly what I meant. Then voices all over the earth will sing these words with joyous mirth to the one they love bringing this song endless new rebirths and ten million instruments will play my song for you I wrote today and it will be in so many ways..... A symphony for you from me becoming exisistentially what I always meant for it to be so the whole world knows what I have seen.... your love that truly reigns supreme and my debt to you will be redeemed for your answering all of my dreams. I love you so much.baby you are my queen and you deserve a symphony from me to you for all you do for me A symphony....Baby I can't put it any other way and I hope it makes you happy every time I say "I Love you Baby" Can't you hear it echoing all over the world It means you are my Special girl not just a melody it's not enough for me it's got to be a symohony a sweet symphony.... for you from me baby....... Incredible music Composed & Played by-DiVaDY--2021 Vocals & Lyrics Sung & Written by Matthew F. Blowers III---2021 Art~Whimsically Yours Studio Photo credit To; Manuel Ngeli Truest love deserve more than just a melody,

MFB...you have a very good voice but the song structure isn't allowing it to be used properly..
IMO...you have way to many words..probably cut 40% out..this will give you more room to extend notes etc
As an example
I picked up my guitar to strum a melody When thoughts of you came through my finger tips and I knew it would be more than a melody
For the most part try to not use words like then, that, and, but ,,,unless essential to the feel of the song
You have a heartfelt lyric but the bouncing cadence in your voice does not allow that feeling to come through
there is a monotone feel to your voice for much of the song...try greater vocal movement
These are just my thoughts but you have a quality to your voice that IMO is not being showcased enough

Creators of music have a responsibility to their craft. When they have finished using all the notes and words, they must pass them down to the next generation with a simple request. “Use these to create new music.”...Steven McDonald

That's the clearest recording I've ever heard from you Matt! Didn't even need the lyrics! Great Job!

"We are all millionaires, billionaires even, because right now we have today. And today is worth more than all the wealth we can imagine. So spend today wisely. Spend tomorrow wisely. Enjoy the wealth of today, and realize it is worth far more than all the money and possessions of tomorrow and beyond." -Brian Austin Whitney
