I LOVE A LIST 2 - Songs written in 2010

As you may have seen on our website SOAR will have played around 440 shows in SecondLife and expanded our original song catalogue to 131 songs by the time of our 2nd anniversary show on March 18. This is all the more amazing for us because when we started out two years ago to play our first show we weren't entirely sure there would even be a second show.
Even though my songs may be written for very personal reasons at times, they aren't like diary entries, and i write them to share. If as i say on the main page of our website there is "just a thought that resonates and a melody that lingers" for the listener -  then i think the song has done pretty good on lots of levels. 
I know too that many people have a SOAR song, or two or three, that they love, and well, that is an indescribably wonderful thing for me. All of you, and some of you in particular, are the reasons many of the songs we have written in the last two years even exist. Without your support and love and appreciation for our music most of the songs we wrote during 2010 wouldn't have been written, and for this i want to give you all the biggest hugz. Thank you, truly.
Here is the list of songs that we wrote in 2010 that we have so far played in our shows - how grateful i am that there were reasons to write them :)

I FALL
JULIETTE (I'm Pining)
JULIETTE (I'm Waiting)
INTO MAGIC
BLIND ME
STORMWINDS (with Chance)
THE SHOW IS OVER
STRONGER DEEPER
THAT FINAL KISS
ALL AT ONCE
SPARROW IN THE WILLOW
THESE ARE THE WORDS
WHEN ITS IN YOUR PLANS
IN THE REDWOOD FOREST
GOODBYE (Counting the cost)
WITHOUT MY CLAIRE
RAINBOWS
SOMEONE WE KNOW IS CRYING
LIVING ON THE MOON
THE STORM
THROUGH THE CRACKS IN THINGS
WHISPERS AND ANSWERS
THE WINDS OF CHANGE
HARMONY WAS STOLEN
STEPHEN AND EBONYJAY
NO OUTDOORS
WILLOW TREE
BEYOND THE CROWD
ACROSS A STAR FILLED SKY
TOWARDS THE WESTERN SUN
CALLING IN YOUR DREAMS

Thanks for reading, and stuff.
Bright :)

  1. Each song has its own secret that's different from another song, and each has its own life. Sometimes it has to be teased out, whereas other times it might come fast. There are no laws about songwriting or producing. It depends on what you're feeling and thinking.

    All of your music has a lil touch of magic with a large touch of heart and soul.

    And The Sun Will Shine
    Pale Blue Persuasion
    She's Like The Rain
    Kansas Skies
    In The Winter
    Do You Remember Me
    First Love
    Now and Forever

    Fool You
    The Mirror's Eye
