Week 10 - "Lonely Tonight"

Lyrics:
No one makes me feel the way that you did back when you were mine.
Ever since you left me I still think about you all the time.
I swear that my love is real.
Don't you know how I feel?

I feel lonely tonight. Come on by and keep me warm
I feel lonely tonight. Save me from the raging storm.
I need you like no one knows
And I want you to hold me close

Never in my life has anyone known me the way you do.
When you left I wonder if you ever even had a clue
how much you hurt me so.
Why did you have to go?

I feel lonely tonight. Come on by and keep me warm
I feel lonely tonight. Save me from the raging storm.
I'm longing to hold you near
And I wonder why you're not here.

Why you're not here in my arms tonight
Is it not clear that it would be so right
My only fear is that you never might
Ever see the light.

I feel lonely tonight. Come on by and keep me warm
I feel lonely tonight. Save me from the raging storm.
I need you like no one knows
And I want you to hold me close

‘cause I’m lonely tonight. Come on by and keep me warm
I feel lonely tonight. Save me from the raging storm.
I'm longing to hold you near
And I wonder why you're not here.

I feel lonely tonight.
Lonely tonight.

Here is a song that I wrote for The Solution (Stephen Embree and Adam Embree), an electronic/pop band. I gave them a chord chart and a recording of me playing and singing it at the piano and gave them complete creative freedom to record it anyway they wanted to. They produced the recording with Ableton Live and used a Moog synthesizer for some of the noisy sounds. They describe the musical style of the arrangement as "dubstep," which is an electronic dance music that originated in South London. The results of the collaboration are fantastic. Below is the piano/vocal demo for comparison.
