I Can't Live Without You (for a collaboration)

Post by irwin » Wed Jul 20, 2022 9:14 am

I created a beat and a bass line for this song for it to be improved.
Need a musician/producer to come on board to finish things on the music side.

Song entitled: "I Can't Live Without You"

This is the link to my song;

I think before any of that you need a better singer - this one sounds like she couldn't find a key if she worked in the local locksmith's.

Can you hear how bad it is Irwin ? I am asking as a serious question because if you can't hear that for yourself, you're really going to struggle to make music that other people will want to listen to.

Unfortunately, to find a production collaborator you need to first be able to present the song is a listenable way-- melody and lyrics. It was hard to hear the melody with this singer going all over the place and I couldn't make out the lyrics. Even if you played the melody on a keyboard and showed the lyrics, you'd be better off. I'm afraid, as is, you won't get any interest. My advice would be to not worry at all about production right now, just find a way to present a song.

Best,
:) Casey

Thanks for the reply, but I don't think you should attack the/my singer for it was I who put my music/track to the singer's vocals. Therefore I'm the one to blame for playing in the wrong key.

The subject here is (Need a musician/producer to come on board to finish things on the music side).

Can we just stay on the subject?.

Can you post a track with just the vocal only, nothing else?

Have you ever studied songwriting Irwin, I am genuinely asking.

Irwin

Great vocal, but I agree - a little help with some of the technical stuff. I’d be happy to flesh out a few things then pass it back to you.
I’ve worked with many artists this way and would love to take it on.

Ps - loved Shart Pants!

Sure, This is what is was before I edited it;
https://soundcloud.com/user-148093629/i ... tyouvocal1

Please read the lyric below;

I Can’t Live Without you
©2019 Irwin Abrigo

(Verse 1)
When we’re not together
I get to love you more
But when we’re with each other
I don’t even let it show
That I love you so oh no
I don’t want you to know
I don’t want it to show
I don’t even want you to know

(1st Chorus)
I can’t live without you
I can’t live without hearing you say
You can’t live without me
You can’t live without hearing me say
I can’t live without you
I can’t live without me near
I can’t live without you


(Verse 2)
Stay with me forever
I’ll tell you what I’ll do
Go away I’ll never
I will never be untrue
This I want to prove to you
I just want you to say
That you want me to stay
what I would really want you to say

(2nd Chorus)

You can’t live without me
You can’t live without hearing me say
I can’t live without you
I can’t live without hearing you say
You can’t live without me
You can’t live without me near
I can’t live without you


(bridge)
If you go away
I don’t know what I do
Without you
Without you
I don’t know what I do
If you go away
I couldn’t stand the pain
I want you to stay
I need you every day
so hear me when I say

(1st Chorus)

Have you ever studied songwriting Irwin, I am genuinely asking.
I am naturally a songwriter, I did read a few and a little about the way other writers write their songs but I never wanted to suck into their ways I wanted my own way. I do know the rules as to how a standard song is to be written, because I also know that there is no one rule as to writing songs. Hope I genuinely answer your question.
