Time in a bottle

Time in a bottle by Jim Groce (1972). This was my choice for the Weekly Song Challenge this week. Time in a Bottle is an interesting song because the verses are in a minor key, while the chorus shifts to major (D). Writing a harmony for this song took me some time, but once again, it was a great learning experience. Hans and I decided to use selfies from over the years for the video clip, as the lyrics really resonate with us. 

Cette semaine, j’ai choisi une chanson qui figure sur ma liste de souhaits depuis un moment : Time in a Bottle de Jim Croce (de 1972). 
Time in a Bottle est une chanson intéressante, car les couplets sont en mineur tandis que le refrain passe en majeur. Il m’a fallu pas mal de temps pour écrire une harmonie (2ème voix) pour cette chanson, mais j’en ai encore beaucoup appris. Nous avons choisi d’utiliser des selfies pris au fil des années pour le clip, car les paroles nous correspondent vraiment.

Honesty by Billy Joel was Derek’s song choice for the Weekly Song Challenge.I had a lot of fun to play with the layered voices and as always Hans enjoyed playing around with images generated by the AI.
