Happy Ghosts – It has been done before – Keep The Silence
Here are the building blocks that led to the final version of the song
Using the drums as a click track to aid composition. The outline of the song is written on the bass guitar
Adding keyboards for extra dimension to the structure and to help determine whether the individual sections are working
Introduce more rhythms to help accentuate the change and definition between sections in the song
The original vocal performance. PLEASE NOTE there is silence between the vocals
Placing vocal components within the musical track, ensuring they sound as natural as possible
Using other instruments to add more dynamics to the tracks now that a vocal pattern has been established
Perform a final edit to ensure song dynamics are accentuated, with overall performance sounding as tight as possible

Here are the lyrics for “Keep The Silence” (written by Mandy Leigh Storm)
Keep the silence
Keep believing, its something until I sleep
Too many tears are bouncing off rainbows
Mechanics switch this channel to play
Heed the silence
Keep believing, it’s something until I sleep
And wind whispers through my veins
I can’t imagine keeping warm
Because my eyelids are ashamed to speak for daytime
All this pain
Is suspended given all these teardrops on my cheeks
Being 40,000 beliefs into the future
Well I belong
It’s just too long
Just too long
Keep the silence
Keep believing, it’s something until I
Keep the silence
Don’t let it go
Must keep believing
In something until I sleep
I never thought I could be so good
I gotta face my fears
I gotta warn myself
I miss me
