A Ray

 Chris Gough - A Ray by chrisdgough   A Ray by chrisdgough
Still working on my music...I am picky with what I throw up here, but decided today that I should just put stuff up and worry about getting it perfect later. I have nearly a dozen songs at this point...only a handful are "done," and these won't really be done until instrumentation is dialed in etc.
I was excited to write a song for my wife of 7 years. The seven year itch is apparently causing songs...I think that is a good thing. Rebekah always loved that old song "You are my Sunshine." It stems from her childhood and she has sung it to our kids, has referenced it in her blog title, and generally likes when it pops up. So when I went to write a song for her, I knew it had to include this theme at some level. So here it is, for a person that can always build me up, especially when I need it...my ray of sunshine!
Recorded wonderfully with the cheap stock voice recorder on the iphone.

If your voice sounded like that on a cheap stock voice recorder on an app then I will surely be blown away listening to it live!
Way to go Chris!
