Title: "The One"
Post by: blueglove on June 30, 2007, 06:26:58 am
Hey... I know that if I posted this in the thread for Monday's performance... (6/25/2007) It would not be noticed.... I wanted to load this version, it is pretty clear, and the most recent that we have floating around here. My friend loaded it up for me so thank you to Steven K.... Anyways

The One

Holiday, and I've come home
Hope to see this boy I know
I can't wait for us to be alone

Flippin' through the radio
We sing along to the indie show
The songs they play mean more than I can say

And the tape I made you
Hope you think of me when it plays through
Kind of sad now that it's done

You think my time's for free
In all the ways you say to me
"Sweet versions of lets wait and see"

But you're always a golden boy
And I'm the girl that you enjoy
My parents say "Isn't he a gifted son?"

Time is always passing by
Still I give you another try
And hope that you will see
That I'm the one

Summer goes and we have grown
We have our friends, live on our own
Still, I'm not the girl you want me to be

See gravity can bend the time
Funny I always liked your mind
But this whole thing is crushing me

Well you're always a golden boy
In this girl's heart that you destroy
You smile at me and then you have your fun

Time is always passing by
Still I give you another try
And hope that you will see
That I'm the one

You say you're scared
To get too close
Come let's see how it goes
I see him now, at the show
7th in the 7th row

And now you look at me
And see what I've known for so long
It's sad that you can be
So lovely, yet so wrong

Came to say, that I've moved
I see your face, you don't approve
Guess you could say that I'm already gone

Well you'll always be a golden boy
I'm the summer girl that you enjoy
Some melodys are best left undone

I feel the time pass away
But in my songs you'll aways stay
Don't need for you to tell me I'm the one
Oh, no, no, don't need for you to tell me
I'm the one
You'll never know that I was
The one

It's also awesome how clearly we can hear the lines (that bothered me for long now but not anymore ^^) "Some melodys are best left turned down" and "See gravity can bend the time, funny how I always liked your mind..."

Some melodiess are best left un-- <=== I was wondering what she actually says and in the version you posted it really sounds like "Best left turned down"... I swear it's what I hear but I can be all wrong lol  :wink:  Foooled by the excitement of hearing all new songs and new version of the one ^^

I wish she sang this song just a litttttle bit softer, instead of trying to belt it all out. I think it would sound even sadder and romantic.

Oh, P.s. - I'm hearing "some melodies are best left undone". I'm pretty sure that is what she's saying! I used to think it was "some melodies are best left unsung".... haha

Yeaaaah it's best left undone!! Thanks  :wink:  That line won't bother me anymore éè... Don't know why it sounded like turned down to me lol  :roll:

Anyway I can't stop listening to it! I really love it... I cannot wait for the album version of The One... I'm sure it will sound fantastic and a little bit sadder if she put strings on it...

I absolutely love this song. I've been playing it on repeat along with Fools Like Me for the past two days now. I can't wait to hear what the released version will sound like with Stevie Nicks singing backup.
Title: sheets?
Post by: pswik91 on September 28, 2007, 02:54:19 pm
Is anybody gonna update the sheets for The One?  And possibly add that really cool ending to Home?
Title: Home Ending
Post by: **Ann-Marie89** on September 28, 2007, 10:24:17 pm
I am posting a tutorial for Home tomorrow or the next day, (before the end of the week) and it includes the end of the studio version. Here's what she plays in short:
the left hand is the same, with the right hand playing the melody as well as an arpeggio. Goes from D,B,G, to E,A,C, to C,A,F (not quite in that order) and then ending on the C Major chord without the third. (So no E) And yea, the simple way of me explaining this is on the tutorial :D lol

Oh and Im doing Best Behavior....

Stevie Nicks ruined this song...

Post by: Suicidalboobs on October 09, 2007, 09:25:14 am
I just listened to it for the first time and I thought stevie was fine. Maybe she wasn't needed in full blown three part harmonies, but she was fine. It didn't ruin the song at all. I thought it was beautifully done. Very good song and single worthy.

Her voice does not mix well with Vs at all...in my opinion, its terrible...

Am I the only person here who LOVES Stevie's background vocals on this song? I think her vocals are amazing.

Post by: itsthefiveofus on October 16, 2007, 06:01:55 pm
mmhmm I have started to like her on the song very much. At night I always listen to V before I go to bed and I have blasted to song and its just a really good song now I really like it now.

Stevie Nicks is my all time favorite singer, but I have to admit, I liked it better without her. I agree that Stevie and Vanessa's voices don't blend that well together. The only parts I really like in the released version is the opening harmonies and then the linem "guess you could say that I'm already gone." << That's when Stevie actually sings and doesn't sound so "robotic" as I've heard others label her.
