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
