Amplify the World

Liner Notes

This was written in a mentoring session with Rhys Renwick (my current mentor) at Wild at Heart Community Arts.

Rhys started this song when he was hosting the band workshop in the morning (I was absent and didn't show up until about 2:00 PM). He said that he came up with the lyrics spontaneously.

In our session, we developed this song further. I added a keyboard melody and vocal harmonies in the chorus

This was recorded on my phone outside the Sol Green Community Centre in South Melbourne. This song was done on the 7th of August.

Rhys Renwick - lead vocals, acoustic guitar
Edward Roussac - harmony vocals, electric piano

Lyrics

Woke up this morning, I was so tired
The streets and everything else were really quiet
And the trees were almost silent
God give me something to amplify it

Amplify the world
Amplify the world
Amplify the world
Amplify the world

It was so cold this morning
And my feet needed my shoes for warming
And the weatherman, he gave his gloomy warning
That the quiet wind would soon start storming

Amplify the world
Amplify the world
Amplify the world
Amplify the world

Amplify the world
Amplify the world
Amplify the world

Ok I love everything about this. The outside recording of this just adds so much character to it with all the ambient sounds. You could even say it.....amplifies the world ;). Excellent job on this. There's just so much character to this.
