The Truth On That Day

The music is my interpretation of the song "like red on a rose" performed by Allen Jackson.

I welcome any and all lyrical changes. This is something I just sort of jotted down this morning during a 'force yourself to write' session. I Consider it a rough draft.

I think it could be a hit if polished up and put to a video about Islam being wrongly blamed for 9/11 and all things 'terror'.

It could very well be a hit. Thanks so much. It was excellent. Also, I send you my condolences regarding your uncle. I can hear the depth of it all in your voice. Sadness and deep introspection often make for good songwriting, unfortunately.

I liked the relaxed timing of the intro with your voice eventually coming up on the fader. I heard it voice and guitar only, until almost midway, and then a good solid, but simple backbeat kicked in with drums and bass. There are also several good places after the drums and bass kick in to bring in three-part harmony after the beat is established for 4-5 measures. So now in the second half or toward the latter part of the song you have acoustic guitar, bass, drums, and three part harmonies, or your voice with two backup vocalists. I heard it go from simple and sad acoustic guitar only, to a full, almost anthemic feel at the end.

Anyways, the WTCD CD project seems to be on a developmental road of its own.

sorry I haven't been keeping up with everyone's music, things have been so crazy (in a good way). this song is really quite moving, thanks for writing it and sharing it, J.
