1st song on Profile! Sounds better as a WAV file. Audacity doesn't always translate into MP3's that well. :(

Anyone know a better FREEWARE program for going from WAV to MP3, until I can afford to pay for a plug-in?



Falling (Erin's Song) © 2010 Craig Maxim

Cold November, and I've
Got your picture to warm my nights
But now, Help me catch my breath
The light that fills your eyes
illuminates all the darkest skies, that I
Only saw as grey

------------- CHORUS ----------------------
Finally I can say "I believe"
What does it mean?
Well don't help me, cause I'm fallin' (fallin')
Could this be as real as it seems
Well, if you're a dream
Then, don't catch me, cause I'm fallin' (fallin')
--------------------------------------------


Babe, if you could see
How your heart, girl has set me free
Believe, your love makes me new
Give me half a chance
To prove it's more than a fun romance, and I'll
Give the world to you

(Chorus)

If by chance the stars aligned
I would hold your heart, forever in mine

This one is not too bad.

So far its the only one that works for my cars mp3 player without skipping around or droppin' songs at the end.

LOL @ Phil! :lol:


Thanks for the comments guys! (Bob, RG, Phil, Dizz) I think it's a catchy song with good potential! But as always, I really depend on feedback from my peers! It's too easy sometimes to get close to a song, and think it's better than it is. Thanks! :D

And thanks for the suggestions on software!!!!

[b]If I had to nit-pick I'ld say your vocals need to be out
front just a smudge more and bring the back vocals back a tad and double them.
Again you have written a driving melody that will lift the
listeners spirit.
Again I recognize your signiture sound and unique vocal.
It's GOOD.

LOL - Well, I am glad to hear things are working out for you brother! I have a few musicians lined up to audition for me, here in Jax. I'm pretty excited! It's been 2 years since my last band, and I am just now getting the chance to rebuild, and take this band, where my last one left off!

Here's crossing my fingers for us both!

What about Klugmo? Did he ever join that band?

Well done Craig.

I know you'd rather have a scathing critique but sometimes I just have to sit back and enjoy your music.

Not much of a " love song " kind of guy, yet this is a powerful tune.


Again ... well done.

Yes Craig, I won the position as singer and writer.
This band is being formed under the umbrella of a
management co. that I will talk more about later.
I am very excited about this opportunity and will
relay progress when it is appropriate.
