CHILDREN CRY

[wyotryot]

Legendary.emerald started this song and needed a singer for it, so I did it! And here it is...

Now, we hear this tune with a gospel feel. So, we're looking for a few good voices. Record the choruses in your very best voices - if you can do a higher register as well as a lower register that would be sooooo cooooool. Men and women wanted! then I will blend it all together and see what we come up with. Anybody can try, but no guarantees I'll use your voice, okay? Don't be hurt if I don't, it just means it didn't quite fit in with the feel, not that there's anything wrong with your voice. Okay?
Now, ladies and gentlemen, start your vocal chords

you can see in the lyrics where we think the gospel thing will fit.

CHILDREN CRY
by legendary.emerald

(Chorus)Bar10
Oh Lord I try to keep my head high
But I wonder why children have to cry
We harm our lives we tell another lie
And people ask why do children have to cry

(Verse 1)Bar19
We don’t know we don’t know the answer
Even as we try harder we fall faster
Time rolls by rolls by so quickly
And this human race becomes more sickly

(Bridge)Bar27
And even if we know we have to change this flow
Our Progress demands more so we hurry off to war

(Chorus)Bar31 - w/ 2 backing vocals
Oh Lord I try to keep my head high
But I wonder why children have to cry
We harm our lives we tell another lie
And people ask why do children have to cry

(Verse 2)Bar40
If we’re here to please everybody's needs
Why can’t it be peacefully oh why do we bleed?
If we’re to save all humankind
Are we looking forward or falling fast behind?

(Bridge1)Bar48
And even if we know we have to change this flow
Our Progress demands more so we hurry off to war

(Chorus)Bar52 - w/ 4 backing vocals
Oh Lord I try to keep my head high
But I wonder why children have to cry
We harm our lives we tell another lie
And people ask why do children have to cry
Cry listen to the children cry
Oh oh they cry

(Guitar instrumental)Bar68

(Bridge 2)Bar75
And even if we know we have to change this flow
Our Progress demands more so we hurry off to war
We’ve left a path of flames all history deranged
Our future is in doubt So in one voice we will shout

(Chorus2)Bar83 - w/ full backing choir
Oh Lord we try to keep our heads high
We wonder why children have to cry
We harm our lives we tell another lie
The people ask why do children have to cry

(Chorus1)Bar91 - w/ full backing choir softly, and ooohhh, mmmm
Oh Lord I try to keep my head high
But I wonder why children have to cry
Oh Lord I try to keep my head high
But I wonder why children have to cry

Hi Legendary Emerald and Wyotryot,

Robert

Thanks! Umm, without trying to assert myself, I wrote the lyrics originally. Wyotryot then edited them for the melody in which he sang it, and added the line about war.

Hi LE,

 You should most definately assert yourself. I stand corrected and apoligize! Great job to both of you.

Hey Wyot,... if you dont get any takers on the choir vocals, I can use your own vocal and use a harmoney engine to add choir vocals. Just holler at me if you like.

Robert

[wyotryot]

Sweeeet! 'Cause I don't see any takers so far...

[Omega]

ill have a go at this wyo

[wyotryot]

Perfect! Om, I was hoping you would bite
PM me if you're having any difficulties.

[legendary.emerald]

So, should I take it the version already done is the only version there will be? Because I'm completely fine with what has been created already. And if this project is no longer being worked on, the topic can be closed, I suppose.

[wyotryot]

Hey LE, I guess you are right. I've heard interest, but no bites from anyone. So, there's your song. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of it. If you think we can clean anything up, just let me know.

[RobertLeeHall]

Hi LE,

 My offer still is good if you would like to have harmony vocals added. I would nned a clean vocal track by itself to make the harmony track. 

Robert
