I finished a new song called "Bedtime Stories" this weekend. I wrote this song last year sometime, and it sort of a random thing that I did one night (most of my songs usually come together at really random times, often after midnight). It was supposed to be a fun little song that I could use as a bonus track or something. I definitely didn't plan for it to be a full arrangement, but I think it definitely sounds better that way! I spent probably about 10 hours putting it together and mixing it (I had to fix it today when it wasn't quite right on crappy speakers). I'm definitely happy with the result. I think I'm going to get better and better at putting these songs together now. It really helps to have my studio set up so that my work flow is as efficient as possible. I also put up a better version of "We Can Make it". The volume should be more consistent with the other songs now. I also fixed some of the singing, and did some panning/eq work. It's definitely sounding good now! Hopefully before the night is over, I can get the initial recording done for a couple of other songs that are on the list. I doubt I will finish mixing/arranging them, but I'll do my best! Oh, and on a side note, I noticed that my lyrics section was broken for internet explorer (stupid IE). I've fixed it now, should it work (hopefully) for every browser. 2 comments

Call me stupid, but where can I actually download the song? I only see lyrics.

I put up links for downloading the songs. By the way, when I asked you to try to do drums for Maybe, I didn't realize at the time how much I screwed up the rhythm in the chorus. It made it really difficult, if not impossible to drum to! I'm still considering re-recording the chorus or just dropping the song altogether.
