Hi Joe,
Cool … I like the disco kind of guitar and drum part.  Man, this would sound really cool with a woman singing the lead.  Great job so keep it up!

How did you come up with this song?

Thanks, Uncle Brent

Thank you for the feedback. There were two things going on when I started this song. I had the basic track down, using loops from my phone. Then I also had the title. I took the title and brainstormed it using clustering. eventually the song hashed itself out and I wrote the lyric and thaen sang to it.

It’s a little more complex than that but it kinda sums it up.

Taking Chances

Written by Joe Stilez

as the crow flies
I'm 3 miles from your home
my danger zone
I've got a bad trait
with heartache
tired lines
and neon signs
I'm looking for a meant to be
some kind of destiny for me

I keep taking chances with my heart (x2)

these memories
of catastrophes
a shot in the dark
don't make a mark
on a moving target
chances are

I keep taking chances with my heart (repeat)
