I'm gonna throw this out and see if anyone feels like co-writing a song with me just for fun. And if it goes platinum all the better!

These are some lyrics I wrote a while ago but I never did write any music/melody for it.

Looking forward to hearing how someone else would approach these lyrics musically.....post your link with your version once you're done.

Multi-person collabs are welcome of course.....

I Need Your Loving Baby

I find myself thinking 'bout you all, the time
Every time you're near me I go out of my mind
Can't live without you, I know it's true
Because I need your loving baby, yes I do

I got to tell you 'bout it let me plead my case
Your loving satisfies me in every way
Day and night I dreaming of you
Because I need your loving baby, yes I do

I'm on my knees for you and babe I can't go on
The way I feel for you is much too strong
This sweet addiction, breaks all the rules
Because I need your loving baby, yes I do

Bridge
Can’t take the heartache babe if I can’t make it with you
Never met a woman who can make me feel the way you do

Just like a voodoo child you got me under your spell
Do what you want because you do it so well
Go on and tease me baby be cruel
Because I need your loving baby, yes I do

You're always in my dreams when I sleep at night
Doing all the things that make me feel alright
When I'm awake, I'm still dreaming of you
Because I need your loving baby, yes I do
 
What you looking for? Acoustic, electric, mellow, hard, simple...... :D

I could help some, might even have a riff already. I won't be home for a few more days, but I put together a chord progression today, with no words in mind.....
 
Post some info in the dragon cave under the thread I started called "Let's Write a Song". there might be some folks in there who would jump on this with you.

Cool - anything goes for this. I was thinking maybe R & B, but I'm open to anything and hoping to get a few different variations. Will be interesting to see how everyone else interprets this.

people would turn it into a big joke in the cave... start ranting on about inapropriate subjects...

So whatever key or instrument is okay? It has a bluesy feel to it. :D

Hey Hero, Looking forward to hearing your take on this. I'll take your advice and stay here in the songwriting threads..... :D

True - yes, you can use any instrument(s) you want, and sing it in any key you like and that you feel best suits the song.

It does have a bluesy sort of feel to it when you read the lyrics, but it's open to any type of musical style.....

:D :) :D :) :D

Actually its done pretty well so far. We've got a group together already.

DJ we penned you in on bass. You had indicated you were interested but never responded after that. You still on board?

That being said, Id on't mind merging that thread with this one. I'll post over there that if you're wanting to do a collaborative process to come over here.

My goal was to have a few groups of folks doing all different styles of music (and offering non instrument services like mastering, etc) and then end up making a CD from it.

Hey MCreel - I checked out your thread over at the Cave..... It sounds like you have the makings of a great group. You're welcome to try your hand(s) at a version of this tune too - the more the merrier! Looking forward to your take on this!

:D :cool: :) :D :cool: :) :D :cool: :)
 
Thanks, I think you guys should keep hammerin away at that tune and then when we're done we'll have a two song cd and be ready to add a couple more to it.

It would be nice if we had like 4 or 5 groups of collaborators working on songs at once. Then we'd end up with a solid variety of music. It would of course be acceptable to have one guitar player, one vocalist, etc, working on 2 or 3 different songs.

Oh, sure man, I'm in......what're we playing?

From the other thread:
I'll pencil you for the following collaboration:

Style: Rockin Rock
Lyrics/Vox - MCreel
Guitar(s) - Anomaly Design
Bass - DJHead
Drums - NegadivOne

I'm gonna get started on some lyrics ideas so thats once I've got some beats/riffs I can at least have a stepping stone in place. Neg, Anomaly, or DJ if you've got some scratch tracks done send em on over.

Oh, FYI - I have Cubase SX3 so I suppose if we don't all have the same software program we'll have to send each track over as .wav files.

Neg. and Anomaly are gonna send me some stuff sometime soon I think, so we'll see then. If you've got any bass lines you like then send them to the group and we can get rollin on those too. Might end up with more than one song.
 
Sure, I'll track a few up today, let me know if you like 'em
 
Can't wait to hear em. Check your PMs by the way.

id so be in for anything.....too bad i dont have a setup yet......i really think you guys should keep pressing this. try to kep it public as much as possible. maybe a website? i think it will be really exciting to witness. ill help with anything other than recording you need . lol. Good luck guys!

Adam

This might be a good idea. Anyone have some webspace and developing skills they'd be willing to use to create a little hosting station for the songs and some info about them once they are done?
 
but what does all this have to do with making a porno movie?......
 
Ok, how about Van Halen meets Traffic???


Scratch

Just messed with it for a few, to see about a progression.....
 
I like that as a solid intro. Possibly speed it up a bit depending on where you wanted to take it.

Good sound too. Adding a distortion track that doesn't have any phase (is that the effect you used) would thicken it up a bit too because theres no much bass there.

nice work dogman.
