Here's a demo of a song I co-wrote with Francesca Evans for her last CD. I think it turned out pretty cool. I played all the instruments and sang the vocals. Tim Ponzek arranged and played the synth string parts. Just click on the song title below and it will open up the soundcloud page with the song. SAPPHIRES IN THE SKY (BREEN/EVANS) Sapphires In the Sky
(McDermid-Evans/Breen) When the stars light up the blackness Like Sapphires in the Sky Legend is they are the souls Of children who have died They don’t show it on the TV They don’t show it on the news Is it just too hard to face it When these children are abused? CHORUS THEY ARE SAPPHIRES IN THE SKY THEY ARE THE SHADOWS IN THE CORNERS OF OUR EYES From the young boys of Rwanda Forced to take the gun To the street girls of Calcutta Sold into the slum From the diamonds in Uganda Mined with childrens’ hands To the trafficking in India Laos and Sudan CHORUS THEY ARE SAPPHIRES IN THE SKY THEY ARE THE SHADOWS IN THE CORNERS OF OUR EYES It happens all around us We just don’t know it’s there And we’ve got to get together Let the children know we care CHORUS BEFORE THEY’RE SAPPHIRES IN THE SKY SHADOWS IN THE CORNERS OF OUR EYES BEFORE THEY’RE SAPPHIRES IN THE SKY SHADOWS IN THE CORNERS OF OUR EYES |
