Song Description

Upbeat Motown style, love/attraction-based PLACEMENT NOTE: I think that this song (this is my demo for pitching purposes) could suit a musical theatre production/movie in which one like it would fit in with the plot/feel/era. The same applies to the instrumental version, which is also on Broadjam (Link to it on Sound Cloud: https://soundcloud.com/laurence_conway/its-what-i-want) To add colour to the piece, the BPM - initially 160 - changes from section to section. Details: Bars 1 - 31: 160 Bars 32 - 36: 145 Bars 37 - 68: Back to 160 Bars 69 - 72: 140 (slightly slower than the 1st time) Bars 73 - 104: 165 (slightly faster than the 1st time) Bar 105: 155 (slightly slower for breaking effect) Bars 106 - 108: Back to 140 Bars 109 - end: 135 (rather slower than same section previously - maintained on Coda)

IT'S WHAT I WANT! (vocal version)

1:

Do we read each other right or just think we do?
Do we share the same in terms of our feelings?
How deep do they run with you?
Do we dance to our same beat?
Tread the same yearning street?

Dont want chill - I want heat
Want save not delete
I want full song not the sample
Just begin's bitter-sweet
You lovin' me long's what I want

[5 bars instrumental link]

Chorus:

Your love
>
IT'S WHAT I WANT babe
Guessin' you know that, don't ya?

Your love
>
IT'S WHAT I WANT babe
It's again I told ya

2:

Talk to me - I'm gonna hang on your ev'ry word
What you say may change the shape of our future
- decide where we go from here
- both one path or watch it divide
Here with ears open wide!

Won't you please make a start?
Just speak from your heart?
My own cards are on the table
Show the hand that you hold
I'd like us to play on, not fold

[Repeat the 5 bars instrumental link]

Repeat Chorus x4

Ending (sung to melody of instr. link):

You know that your lovin'
>
IT'S WHAT I WANT
