This is my signature song. I wrote this in 2002. This is a remake I always wanted to do. Never found a drum track I liked so I found a software called moises and could pull the original drum track out much like the Beatles pulled Johns vocal.

Fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Fogelberg, Moody Blues, Raspberries and other Retro Classic rock.
I am a fan of the Beatles, Fogelberg, Raspberries, Badfinger, Moody Blues, solo Beatles, Eagles. Any music that has solid vocals, good harmonies and a hook! I also am developing a fascination with old jazz standards. I am self taught on everything I play which explains my limitations. LOL! Up until a few years ago I was all accoustic all the time and did very little recording on an old 4 trak. I had written a lot of songs over the years on my accoustic most of those are not here as I started using the computer to record and wanting a more electric sound so out came an electric guitar, then I wanted a beat so the cheap drum machine came next, then I needed a bottom so the cheap bass was bought, then my drums sucked so I needed loops. Then I wanted some strings/sax so my keyboard was bought. Well you know the drill the more you get the more you want and songs that took 3 hours now take 3 days. And so my one man 6th grade band was born. I have put samples of the music I have written here on this website. I use drum loops and all other instruments are live Course you probably can tell that, LOL). Anyway as Harry Chapin's Mr. Tanner would say music is my life not my livelihood. I have met some great artists on SC and continue to hear great artists on SC. Click on the stations link to find Soundclick Radio stations where my music is playing. My music playing on these stations has been a pleasant surprise as these stations are filled with great musicians. I have also had the opportunity to collaborate with some very good musicians here on SC. My brother Jim, Svenni Bjorgvins, Juri Rosenfeld, Johnny Proctor, His Masters Choice, DeAnn Sanders, Dawn Sinclair and most recently Dawn Diamond. I am very grateful to all these artists for helping me to have more fun than should be allowed for free. Writing/recording/producing music I find to be very rewarding. I am learning so much everyday about every facet. The exposure to so many great musicians has really helped me evolve as well. Well if you are still awake thanks for coming by.

Story behind the song
A restrospection of life. Do you Remember when you were a child? Seems like yesterday to me sometimes. A nostalgic trip back to the dances at the gym. My Signature song. Finally reaches #1 in Beach Jan 2012 after 9 years on the charts. This is the song that got me introduced to Svenni, Johnny Proctor and Serge they all like it.. Gave me confidence to keep recording as this was an early entry in my digital recording life. Now Travis picking
Lyrics
Through the Years Words/Music Tony DeLecce Written January 2002 Do you remember when you were a child All of your dreams were ahead of you All of our hopes and all of our fears Seem to fade away to yesteryear Nobody said that life would be easy Nobody said life would be fair Nobody said life would be this hard Nobody said life would break your heart Do you remember when you were a child Seems like yesterday to me All of our hopes and all of our fears Seemed to fade away when you were near Nobody said love would be easy Nobody said love would be fair Nobody said love would be this hard Everyone said love would break your heart LEAD GUITAR here Through the years we’ve learned to live one day at a time, we’ve learned to forgive All of our hopes and all of our fears Are something we’ve shared through the years Through the years our tears have flowed Through the years our children have grown Nobody said life would be this hard Nobody said life would break your heart Do you remember when you were a child Seems like yesterday to me All of our hopes and all of our fears Seems to catch up with us through the years Lead to end
