DC 25,164 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Hey! So I don't know if I wanted this song to be on the new album, so I'll let you be the judge of that I've been working on a song I wrote a year ago all throughout today and last night, it's called Now That I Know. I ALWAYS loved the chorus hook and the production (kind of ) so I took it to the test with this new version. On the first version I used one sample loop and it's the A# C# Fm Cm - A# C# Fm D# synth melody, but luckily I didn't use it in the new version so there aren't any samples or anything like that, just synths all made by me VERSION 1 Lyrics: Spoiler Now know! It was Super Obvi-ous! That you Couldn’t Get me Off of your mi-i-i-ind Saw it With my Very Ow-ow-own eyes You can’t Push me Further Into your lying role! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! Tried to Run from You’re truth But I know every bi-it! Now that Your gone I’m done With you, rat Saw it With my Very Ow-ow-own eyes You can’t Hurt me Anymore I’m out of your live role! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! Your secret! Your secret! (I know it all!) NOW THAT I KNOW!!!!! ABOUT HIIIIIIIIIM!!!! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! (Key Change) But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! VERSION 2 (New and [hopefully] improved!) Lyrics: Spoiler Now That I Know By: DC Now I know! It was Super Obvi-ous! That you Couldn’t Get me Off of your mi-i-i-ind Saw it With my Very Ow-ow-own eyes You can’t Pull me Further Into your lie pool! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! Tried to Run from You’re truth But I know every bi-it! Since I Saw you With that Thing you call a “him” Saw it With my Very Ow-ow-own eyes You can’t Hurt me Anymore I’m out of your life role! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret! Now-ow-ow that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh I know-know-know about-out-out hi-im-im-im and your little secret! Your secret! Your secret! Your secret! Your secret! Your secret! Now that I know What you did, your sins glow! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret... Now that I know!!! But Now-now-now that I know-know-know About-out-out-out oh-Woah-oh-oh Now-now-now that I know-know-know about-out him and your little secret!

beaublue 3,865 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 From one songwriter to another I’m just gonna be honest because I think you deserve that much. The first was pretty bad but I’m happy to say the second version isn’t as bad as the first. It was actually tolerable to listen to. Keep working on it, the second definitely shows progress. If you keep working on it I think you’ll be able to pull out a pretty decent song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'll be honestly with you, that writing on the first one isn't bad at all... it was TERRIBLE Thanks, I'm always looking to improve! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcanum 4,116 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I came here running wishing for a Mariah's remake off "Now that I know". Something's weird with your track in an awkward sense. Nice choice of stems etc. on the second one. You need to stabilize the sonic direction more especially if there's vocals involved. I guess there's room for improvement! You seem talented!

Lol well, you said it not me 😆 but yeah I think if you keep working on it you’ll end up with a nice song. There’s plenty to work with & your voice isn’t bad. You’re actually singing on key which makes me happy since some “singers” on here don’t know what singing on key is 🤷🏻♀️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, and totally agree, it's so weird like I didn't even realize how unstable the vocals were till after I rendered it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll keep working on it To be honest, don't be scared to sing high notes with your head voice! I think it would be even better if you sang the whole 2nd verse with your high voice (just like you did when you sang "tried to" to start that verse) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would sound really nice ontop of the lower vocals I think it would be better as your lead vocals, cuz you already have backing vocals in the chorus, and singing higher in the 2nd verse would give more life to the song. Especially since you're singing the chorus with low notes. Pretty much like Sinner's Prayer, Gaga sings higher in the second half of the song. It's great when a song grows as you're listening to it! But it's just my opinion, feel free to do whatever you want Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
