I wanted to present the original version that I worked off of to get the final product of “SONG CALLED, “7:77 (I FOREVER LOVE YOU)” so people can get an idea of what the basic skeleton of the song was vs. what the end product became. Besides various overdubs to get to the completed version, I had to change the speed and pitch in a few places due to the aspects of recording it live in an outside forum. I think it was around 3 am when I recorded this at my work, which was South Transfer Station in Seattle. I brought my 2 track recorder and performed the acoustic guitar and vocal live, mistakes and all, within a couple takes. I liked the natural sound of the concrete building where I recorded it, which gave off this warm reverb and echo without using electronics. So, this version is in its purist form. It's as raw as it gets.

This is song #582.

Recorded at South Transfer Station in Seattle, WA.

lyrics

IT'S 7:77,
AND I WISH YOU WERE HERE.
IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I SAW YOU
OR FELT THE TOUCH OF YOU NEAR.
I'VE FOUND TIME AND REALIZED
I'M THE ONLY ONE TO
BE IN LOVE WITH YOU GIRL.
I'M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU,
AND THAT IS THE TRUTH.

JUST FORGIVE ME ONE MORE TIME,
AND I WILL PROVE TO YOU,
I SHALL TREAT YOU FAIR AND KIND;
I WILL ALWAYS BE TRUE.
I FOREVER LOVE YOU.

IT'S 7:77,
I'M ALL ALONE TONIGHT.
YOU'RE IN MY DREAMS, YOU'RE IN MY HEART.
TO ME, YOU'RE ALWAYS MINE.
MY FANTASIES BRING ME DREAMS
THAT SPARKLE, TWINKLE, AND SHINE.
STILL I SAY YOU'LL COME BACK
AND SOMEDAY AGAIN BE MINE,
BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE. I KNOW YOU.

JUST FORGIVE ME ONE MORE TIME,
AND I WILL PROVE TO YOU,
I SHALL TREAT YOU FAIR AND KIND;
AND I WILL ALWAYS BE TRUE,
I FOREVER LOVE YOU.
I FOREVER LOVE YOU.

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
