Happy Ghosts – It has been done before – Only Love



Here are the building blocks that led to the final version of the song

Using the drums as a click track to aid composition. The outline of the song is written on the bass guitar


Adding keyboards for extra dimension to the structure and to help determine whether the individual sections are working


Introduce more rhythms to help accentuate the change and definition between sections in the song


The original vocal performance. PLEASE NOTE there is silence between the vocals


Placing vocal components within the musical track, ensuring they sound as natural as possible


Using other instruments to add more dynamics to the tracks now that a vocal pattern has been established


Perform a final edit to ensure song dynamics are accentuated, with overall performance sounding as tight as possible

Here are the lyrics for “Only Love” (written by Shannonsongs/Shannon Hurley)
Turn out the lines
Open your mind
It’s all been the same
What will it take?
Clear out the rain
It’s time for a change
There’s always a mountain to climb
To take you higher
Only love can make us strong, nothing else only love
Sometimes we find
Emotions ignite
We’re both on the same side
And I am going to reach you someday
Together we’ll shine
We will cast off the night
We will turn the tide
Only love can make us strong, nothing else only love
Hear the sound of our hearts, we live for love, only love
Only love can make us strong, only love
Hear the sound of our hearts, we live for love, only love
Only love
Only love
