Original - Traffic signals

This next number was a collaborative effort with a Canadian musician. I came across this guy last year, before I started posting videos up on to Youtube. He is quite a prolific writer and loves to co-write material. So he would send me the music that he created, and I would attempt to put words and a vocal melody to it. I suppose you could say it was similar to the Elton John and Bernie Taupin scenario. Only without the success

We got through several songs, and we both quite liked the final results. Then I started posting my videos up to Youtube, in about July. Very ealy this year, I started to encourage my canadian musical friend to start posting his own music up to Youtube as well. He has done very well up to this point, and that’s well deserved.

Getting around to the song. He posted a composition, and asked if anybody would like to put words to it. It inspired me, so I worked on the lyrics and vocal melody, and I called the result “Traffic signals”. I used some imagery in the video, which is symbolic of the meaning.

Here is the result of our effort:

If you want to check out some of his compositions, just search for ‘Songvibe’ on Youtube. He’s got a decent collection of songs on there already.

As per usual. This is the latest on the stats.

539 Subscribers. Still on the climb.

There are 11,121 channel views.

There are 156,734 overall video views. Up by a few more thousand

Looking forward to the next one. It’s an Original song that features a very good friend of mine, and an excellent guitarist.
