This is going to need some work...the levels aren't right and there are wrong notes in places that need to be removed. All the instruments were done on the midi keyboard...the drums are loops provided by Mixcraft. This is a bit different, I don't even know what genre to call this...I just went with what my mind wanted. Here's the file. ----> Random Link to Song
I'm looking for a title for this song as well, so if you come up with one while listening...I've got a couple so far, but nothing really clicks with this yet.

This tune is really well crafted Crystal! I can't find anywhere it needs work at all. Sometimes when I need a song title I browse through this site for ideas. www.songfacts.com/browse-song-a-1.php
I agree with Mick that this one is perfect for your vocals.....Nice work !

Update, I got lyrics for it...I'm calling it Illusive. I've getting over a dreaded postpartum cold so my voice isn't 100% yet. Perfect is sitting on the back burner until I can hear back from Irene to see if she wants to collaborate on it. I know she's busy...so I'm working on this and some other projects in the meantime. I'll record the lyrics and melody line and post it up to see what you think.

Here's the link IllusiveLight in the dark You're going crazy I see the blood rush in your veins Driving me insane I can hold you captive Like a criminal Guilty of a crime I am the hunter You are the prey Right now I'm in the mood to play ---------------------------- I'm illusive Like the shadow in the night Flicker of light I appear Only to fade away Hold on to whatever sanity You have left You'll need it If you want to defeat me Cause I'm not easy to beat Oh I'm a beast baby Oh ---------------------------- The shadow's my home I'm one with the night Mmm.. You are attracted to everything about me To you I'm mesmerizing From my beautiful eyes To my porcelain skin Even to the sound of my voice Underneath though lies a monster Waiting to devour you My touch is cold I've been dead for millennia But you've come along To bring me back to life Come into my icy embrace Let me have a bite Just a little taste... --------------------------- I'm illusive Like the shadow in the night Flicker of light I appear Only to fade away Hold on to what ever sanity You have left You'll need it If you want to defeat me Cause I'm not easy to beat Oh no you can't defeat me I want you I'm not letting you go We'll be one heart Your blood and mine Intertwined

Very nice song, Crystal. Good lyrics, vocals, production, and track. I especially liked the uptempo shift in the middle. Cheers, Joseph

Nice work on the final. I knew the day would come when you would go all "femme fatale" on us and make us love it ! The song is a brilliant concept. The writing, the instrumentation, the lyrics, and the vocals come together to create one amazing production ! Great mix too. Way to bring it Crystal.......
