Lyrics

In The Beginning

Music and lyrics by: Bill Dake 2004 ASCAP

In The Beginning there was nothin' at all
Then a flash of light answered the call
For the dance to begin

Churning and swirling with forces unknown
Makin' somethin' from nothin'
New places to roam
New voices to sing

Ever expanding, it'll never stand still
And we're all connected
All part of the thrill
And the wonder of it all

In these vast and changing rhythms
Somewhere hearts collide
Through some tender mercies, join the ride

And In The Beginning as the earth finally cooled
And the oceans were formed
So the fish could be schooled
A stew full of creatures
Filled up the bleachers
Some evolution
Fine execution

And In The Beginning
When I was nothin' at all
Yours was the spark
That answered my call
For the dance to begin

And you thrill me still

Very cool smooth Jazz, well played a performed. The vocalist has a very smooth and casual feel. I enjoyed,

nice soft jazz the way it should be played

Love that warm guitar. Sophistication. Wonderful complexity. Cosmology to evolution to love? Cool lyrical idea. Nicely sung. -- This is an artist we all should keep our eyes... er, rather ears on. We all can learn from this one.
Well... I can anyway. :)

This song is a bonafide, authentic gem. No fakery here.

Nice vocal performance, good lyrics. Nice chord changes and progression. Enjoyed the melodic instruments.

Great vocals

Very tasty playing and arrangement, vocalist is in that pop/jazz style. Very nice guitar tone. Good job.
