Hello! Starting slow... just dipping my toes in the water.
I got lost moving in the right direction
I got lost when the sea changed
How many times do I need to learn
That nothing every stays the same
Who you trying to satisfy…. this time around
II I could only catch your eye… we could be there now
I’m starting slow because that’s the way I need to go
Right now
Moving forward into time
Find your way and I'll find mine
Who you trying to satisfy… this time around
If I could only catch your eye…. we could be there now
We were both staring in the right direction
And then we were found
I was trying to avoid my own reflection
Help me turn it around
Where is it you want to fly.... this time around
If I could only catch your eye…. we could be there now
Who you trying to satisfy... this time around
if I could only catch your eye… .we could be there now
I’ve had enough of circumspection
It’s time to break out
You know we could .be laughing together
And dancing around

Top stuff. There's a lovely loose naturalness to the whole thing that's really winning. Great to hear you again, Deena! (I started slow and am continuing slow.)

Love the lazy tempo - the rhythm in your voice and the little moments on the rhodes(?) keeps everything in check....
I could possibly....possibly... imagine writing some of the melodic hooks here, but I could never imagine delivering them vocally with ease you clearly have. Well jel.
@erucaesounds Feb 2022
Very nice, I love the sparseness and the lack of drums.... the tamb is enough. Tons of hooks and beautiful little melodic bits. Great job!
@vaughan Feb 2022
Sounds great as usual!
@tinear Feb 2022
Great song with a really lovely soulful vibe not unlike The Delphonics or another similar r'n'b band of that era. Terrific vocals too.
@cts Feb 2022
This sounds quite immersive to me! Great groove and feel good vibe. I like the structure of the tune; solid. I'm paying attention to the arrangement, too. So much so I gotta down load this!!
@leepat Feb 2022
Hello Deena.
lots of groove and feel here and I really dig the sparkly guitar with the bass.
have a good one!
@cloudboy Feb 2022
Total vibe time, Deena. I really like the, "Who you trying to satisfy..." section. And "circumspection" - not an easy word to sing but you hit it. Great start.
@bandybum Feb 2022
Smooth, easy vibe pulls me right in from the get go (Sweeps me off to the seaside). Simple and highly effective instrumentation, particularly love that jangly guitar and of course that cracking vocal over the top, Nice FAWM opener :)
@jonmeta Feb 2022
Hello! What a strong start. Those first two lines pulled me right in. I love how you play with the idea of direction and changing direction all through the song. The A/B of minor/major sections keeps it fresh and plays into the changes of viewpoint too. I love that it’s all real instruments too.
@andyt13 Feb 2022
This is great! we are in such the same place lyrically LOL
@mctown Feb 2022
Nice. A Deena song.... a little introspection for these days...onward.
@evinwolverton Feb 2022
Your voice has such distinct charm that it can wear a few instruments and make it feel like a full arrangement. Really like your choices on the spare rhythm, chords, and counter-melody. If this is your toes, I'm intimidated by your ankles.
@skylermf Feb 2022
Such a nice, carefree tune. I love the baseline and tambourine especially! So many beautiful little elements in this without feeling crammed
