New 2025 One of the first songs i ever wrote in 1977. This is a remake by me in 2025. The original digital recording created by Grand Jury is still on my page.
poprock brit pop accoustic
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. Other SoundClick Artists I recommend: Click on their links to hear some great music! Jim DeLecce my very talented brother Great Musician and great help to me in too many ways to count.

Story behind the song
In my younger days I had a belief that many things were in our destiny. Now I would disagree completely but I was young and dumb. Now I am old and Dumb.
Lyrics
Destiny Words/Music Tony DeLecce 1977 Revised 2025 There's a time and there's a place But it's not here and now The time may never come The answer's in your destiny The answer's in your destiny VERSE2 you cannot change what's meant to be now that it's done You cannot lead your own life it lies in your destiny It lies in your destiny VERSE3 You cannot see the future What's done is done Tomorrow asks for an answer It lies in your destiny It lies in your destiny Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ..... BRIDGE Your destiny was meant to be to guide you through your life it your future it's the reason I won't leave here behind Middle Lead Two verse lines and chorus BRIDGE Your destiny was meant to be to guide you through your life it your future it's the reason I won't leave here behind VERSE4 There's a will and there's a way for all to survive and when you find the road to take you'll fulfilled your destiny You'll fulfilled your destiny VERSE5 There's a time and there's a place but it's not here not today still the answer waits in silence and calls to your destiny and calls to your destiny VERSE6 You cannot escape what's meant to be what's done is done The answer lives inside of you It's part of your destiny it's part of your destiny Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ..... BRIDGE Your destiny was meant to be to guide you through your life it your future it's the reason I won't leave here behind

Bringing old thoughts from long ago and reshaping it into today is brilliant! Don't short change yourself. Older we are, but much wiser. Your songs actually always have a youthful quality to them. This one no exception.

Hi Tony . I’ve listened to both versions and both sound great with different instrumentation . Love the guitar in the latest version , with that and the slightly quicker tempo ( well it sounds slightly quicker to me ) just gives it a little more umph ( Brit word meaning more powerful! But both versions are very good with great vocals .

I like the melodic guitar work throughout. Very catchy song that definitely stands the test of time, it sounds so contemporary even though it was written a long time ago. Yeah I often wonder about destiny, sometimes no matter how hard you try to change a path, it still leads back to the same place.
