Damn, how did it get to be 4:00 AM... O_o

https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14655845

What's in my mind driving me crazy
Time stands still, reason is hazy
Your strong arms holding me tight
A torrid sin that feels so right

I must posses you and make you my own
Only to please you and gladly succumb
Heated seduction lures me near
The breath of your aching voice in my ear

Tell me I'm the reason your body exists
Fill my eyes and leave me no time to rest
Unzip your leather, I shed my lace
Reveal my prize with your carnal embrace

Your relentless rhythm is ecstasy
Rewarding every lustful inch of me
But you impair sense to rationalize
Leaving me to wonder 'bout that look in your eyes

So what's in my mind that stirs when your near
What sort of question should an answer fear
A lingering guilt arouses dread
Am I a slave to passion, bound to the warmth of your bed

Slave charmer...

IMO this is a well arranged song from beginning to end. The lyric is exceptional...and you pull it off without a chorus...cool
The one thing I'm not getting from AI right now is timbre in the voice...that may just be me...there's a slight emptiness in the sound, IMO

Really nice JAPOV..this has potential and s/b on the radio

Steve

Tony,
this is awesome. Your instruments are absolutely sensational. Your vocalist sounds a bit like Stevie Nicks. I see you're having fun with that new piece of software. It ignites creativity. I just wish this song had a sticky hook line/chorus. Well done.

I agree with you on the chorus comment Rob...I think the way the voice breaks out in verse 3 feels chorus-like to me

This is your masterpiece, up to this point, in my humble opinion. Absolutely brilliant.

The guitar work is amazing. Really love those volume pedal swells. Dizzyingly atmospheric and cinematic.

Had to clear my head of "Crazy One" for a minute lol, so I pulled an oldie outta' the drawer... a little inspiration from Mike there wink

I originally recorded this in the barracks in Groton, Connecticut in '86, with my old 4track, and sang it from a male POV. I had a radioshack mic, a miniature Kmart Casio keyboard, an original Tom Scholz Rockman practice amp, and an Aria electric guitar...

Everybody kept telling me to "shut up and play some Beastie Boys!" laugh Good times

My BoomBox ate that old tape many years ago... frown

Thanks Guys!

Great soundscape. I agree with Rob about the lack of a sticky hook/chorus. In fact the melody is dull and repetitive. It still sounds great because everything else about it is flippin' amazing.

Well...
The cool thing about Solaria is;
-She's very flexible
-She never complains
-She's bought and paid for
-She's always on time
-She doesn't have any bad habits
-She shuts up when I'm done with her
SHE'S PERFECT!

"Fooling Around" with Solaria is easy grin

She may inspire me to redress the melody a bit...

I may be in a minority, but I wouldn't tamper with the composition's structure in order to add a chorus.

Creating a faux chorus out of what surrounds the sung parts could be something to think about, but I like the idea of

--maybe some slow, faraway chants of "slave charmer" in between verses could fulfill that need in some listeners.
