Maybe It's the Rain - By Vinnie Vincent

Image
The first few drops,  then a few more, and the drops quickly multiply into an applause of little splashes.  That's the way the notes start out. Then I heard the outpouring of all that's heavy on the clouds.  Or maybe what's heavy on the soul...  Would the rain be different if you were stuck at home on a wet Saturday afternoon with your soulmate?  Rain can bring two lovers together. Rain can separate a lonely soul from all that brought warmth and assurance that everything is going to be fine.  You got through yesterday and maybe tomorrow the sun will be out and you will feel fine,  but now spiritual isolation, while life for the one that got away goes on.  With nothing but time to reflect on those better days,  because right now you only remember the good times.   "It's been some time, since I've looked into your eyes, tell me could they still shine for me one more time?" .   Because you just know " the threads of our love are sti...

Gypsy In Her Eyes - By Vinnie Vincent

Over You - By Vinnie Vincent

Here it is... An un-released song written by Vinnie Vincent featuring vocals by Görun Edman.  “Lightyears beyond the moon, that’s where you are, If only my destiny could lead me to your star”.  The Song starts the mood with a harmonious vocal, which sounds like Vinnie Vincent and Gorun Edman.  Then after the intro and a pre-chorus you hear the mesmerizing verse and what sounds like a steel slide or (most likely) a pedal steel guitar.  Some experienced musicians would argue “why single notes with a pedal steel guitar?  I cannot answer that, I just know it adds to the effect. The songs use of either a steel slide or a full pedal steel (its hard to say which) as it is used in this song is just the right amount for notes played along with an electric guitar in the same notes in the verses only parallels the feeling if not amplifies it. To my knowledge no one has combined steel slide, electric guitar with pedal steel and no genre uses such a technique wit...
