Okay so the chorus line/melody came to me quickly and then I heard this in my head as a kind of funky disco song. Was thinking Donna Summer vibes. Anyway, I really like the song but I got frustrated recording it bc I know this one could sound really good with someones professional engineering touch. I'm at the end of my FAWM rope hahaha.
THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
IT WAS THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
I’VE BEEN AROUND AND I’M ALWAYS DOWN TO GET DOWN
WASN’T SEARCHING AT ALL THEN I SAW YOU IN THE CROWD
THE WAY YOU LOOKED AT ME IT MADE ME FEEL SO FREE
COULD I GO BACK THERE AGAIN?
OH OUR EYES THEY DID MEET
AND THEN OUT ON THE STREET
WE EXCHANGED A SPLENDID WONDERFUL SPARK
IT WAS RIGHT THEN I KNEW
YOU KNEW IT TOO
THAT SOMETHING WAS LEAVING A MARK
THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
IT WAS THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
BEEN HERE BEFORE ALWAYS WANTING SOME MORE
WASN’T WISHING AT ALL BUT THEN YOU WALKED IN THE DOOR
THE WAY YOU LOOKED AT ME IT MADE ME FEEL SO FREE
COULD I GO BACK THERE AGAIN?
OH OUR HANDS INTERTWINED
WITH YOUR SKIN TOUCHING MINE
WE EXCHANGED A SPLENDID WONDERFUL GLANCE
IT WAS RIGHT THEN I KNEW
YOU KNEW IT TOO
WE BOTH WOULD BE TAKING A CHANCE
THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE
IT WAS THE NIGHT WE FELL IN LOVE

I could actually hear this going down a notch, kind of chilled 70s disco, like the Delphonics or something! You could add a load of harmonies and stuff. It’s really catchy, and the lyrics are so sweet (although the ALL CAPS does make them come across a TAD passive aggressive ;) ).

ooh, i like your voice! i can hear the donna summers vibes although i'm not sure i would have conjured it if not prompted. nice harmonies. it's kinda like disco but with the edges sanded off. :) chill vibes more than dance floor for me, at least with this demo arrangement. nice work and congrats on making it to 14!

This does feel like how Donna Summers songs feel - like dancing around flirting on the dance floor. All light and easy til things get intense in the guitar solo. (I thought I thought I was all out of your songs, then realized yellow means Zong...Hooray for your last Zong, and an awesome FAWM Album.)
