I was not going to go for three since that much rejection can start to wear on a person but decided that I've been through worse and have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Again, this is not a professional demo. I am submitting it to determine whether or not it is worthy of having a demo done.

Thanks for your time,

WHEN I WHISPER
McKeever, Williams & Bellos

When I whisper
My secrets to the wind
Do you hear them calling
As they start to roll in
Open your window
Let the night breeze rush through
Designed for pleasure
Delivered just to you

When I whisper
Softly and sweetly
I want so completely
To breathe you, seduce you
Slip into your dreams
When I whisper

When I whisper
My longing and desire
Can you feel it surging
The frenzy and fire
Go ahead reach out
Let promise fill the air
Close your eyes, listen
Though Im here and youre there

When I whisper
Free and easy
I dare you to tease me
Catch hold of me, please me
Youre just what I need

When you whisper back let me love you more than this
I begin to imagine the weight of your kiss

When I whisper
Do you know my intentions
When I whisper
Do I have your attention
When I whisper
When I whisper
When I whisper




Dear Ricki

You are a brave one lol. I thought this was the best submission you've made so far, why wasn't it first?
It had some beautiful sections and a great feel.

You are asking if you should get it demoed. I don't see why not.
It's your heart poured into your work and that always deserves the most you can give it.
Nothing can happen if you have nothing to show the world, that's for certain.

Only you face a little harder situation, your songs are so artist,singer/songwriter based in style.
It's hard to hand this to somebody and say demo it. You need to find the right artist who does other peoples songs, or the right singer who is willing to work with you. That is 90% of your goal right there to begin with.

Once that guitar & vocal are executed to a certain level and to your liking then "producing the songs becomes possible" Or you need to be in there in the studio yourself from scratch.

Anyway you approach it, you have to decide how you are going to make your music and present it. Can can you package it? What are you selling? You need these answers first.
You would need alot of pre-work and planning before you make submissions.

Good work here, very pretty song.
Thanks again
