Sometimes soft and melancholy, sometimes not..
I'm a a singer/songwriter originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I've tinkered with many instruments but pretty much stick to piano and guitar. I've been a member here at Soundclick for about 20 years now, I have met some incredible people from all over the world. I have collaborated with a lot of different musicians in my time here, but most notably I have been working quite closely with Juri Rosenfeld aka Grand Jury. Juri is an utterly amazing composer, musician, arranger, producer from Finland. And I am thrilled to be working with him. Very often the lyricist for these songs is Dawn Sinclair an extremely talented and prolific writer from England. From time to time I have worked with other artists as well, most of whom I have met here on Soundclick. Another SC member, Tom Moore and I have worked closely together on many projects as well, including a 17 song Christmas CD. I absolutely love musical collaboration but have recently been trying to focus on completing some more of my own original compositions. Also check out the band Fractured Beauty, here on Soundclick another collaboration project featuring the talents of Bob Kingdon and others with a psychedelic vibe.

Lyrics
There was a moment when I thought I caught a glimpse of something glittering more than all the rest I felt my heart give in, let the love pour in on the day I first kissed the rain and then the sun... rose in the sky I saw the recognition mirrored in your sparkling eyes as sun and rain... met once again I could swear wea€™d been standing like this forever piano solo as time passed I felt sure, in love we were secure and there was magic in each moment But time was not quite right and we were torn apart by something neither one had anticipated Your conscience chose for you, I took a different view as you left me, I kissed the rain and then the sun...rose in the sky I felt my resignation mirrored in your crying eyes you turned to leave...and I believe I could swear Ia€™d be grieving like this forever But in my heart I knew whatever Fate would do Ia€™d never find someone to cast out the mema€™ry No one could make me whole, mend this shattered soul Ia€™d rather stay here and kiss the rain But by some miracle, I caught another glimpse of something glittering more than all the rest my frozen heart thawed then, you kissed my lips again nevermore would I kiss the rain nevermore will I kiss the rain

Just popped in to hear this again. What a collab Amy one of which I am immensely proud to be a part of. Well done on the vocals. Should have put this out there really as it would have been a success I am sure.

Really good remix - you must have some nice new equipment. An excellent collab (as always) with Dawn and Andy - nice stuff.

Very very beautiful!! I loved this recording. Just an excellent recording that brings out your vocal style with such great feeling and expression. Even now as the recording is done I hear it in my head with pleasure. That's what makes a hit!

Hi Amy, This is absolutely beautiful! It fits your vocal very well and the production is top notch. Very very impressive. Great work this is so professional. Stands up with any of your many great Juri collabs. That is meant as an extreme compliment. P.S. I am off to see Sir Paul again on August 15th. My youngest daughter (22) was mad I went last year and did not take her so I rectified that. LOL! Also on Tom's new song I had added harmonies when I did the bass because like you I thought it was bare but... he fired me. LOL!
