The Music

The Very Best Of David Hamilton, Volume 1 and Volume 2, is a catalogue of excellent music created and produced in the past 20 years.

Sample the songs of love, loneliness and hope...

Volume 1
JUST WORDS
A tearful ballad of a lost first love. A loss of innocence - forever didn't last too long.

I WANT TO BE A STAR
Stars stand alone in the universe, so we're all stars in our own way. I don't need a stage, to give a helping hand, to brighten up a day if I can. Stars are really everyone, 'cause everyone can help another man.

I KNOW YOU
An upbeat song of friendship with an instrumental finale that builds to an emotional crescendo.

JUST FOR ME
A soft intimate song just for you. Play the song for you, all your life- and whatever it takes to see you through, do what you gotta do... be what you gotta be... just for me.

LIVE IT!
You only go around once (so they say) so give it all you've got grab it while you can... but make a super plan. Too many people, lost and gone astray, abandoning hopes they had within their hearts. Don't lose faith in yourself cause there's nobody else.

LOUIS
A true tragedy. I was watching television one night when they reported a story of a man who threw himself in front of a train... It was Louis, he was a young attorney and we had lived together for a short time in Coconut Grove, Florida in the early 80's.

JUST WORDS (country mix)
A country version of the ballad.

BEFORE THE CLOUDS BREAK THROUGH
Beautiful ballad of romance and the dilemma of lost passion... Before I change my mind, and leave our love behind. Before our passion dies... before our truth turns to lies... before I've seen the beauty in your eyes.

WILL YOU
In the heat of our passion... in the warm summer night... will your love see tomorrow or is it only tonight. If you really care... I'll be there... will you?

YOUNG PEOPLE
Young people can have so much fun... sometime I wish I could join them... I could sure use some. I remember when I just thought life was one great party. I used to laugh and I used to dream all the time. But then I saw that I had to grow...

DEADLINE
Self actualization. Achieving what you really want in life is certainly possible... but there is a deadline.

MICHELLE
Back to the days of a simpler song... the music was so innocently romantic. This one is for my honey.

ONCE UPON A TIME
Before I became an adult, life was more of an unknown journey... I had time to dream... I had time to play... I had time to wonder where I'd be today. Once upon a time... somewhere long ago... I was just like you... we were young you know...
© D. Vine
DON'T FORGET TO DREAM
My favorite song. We all started out as kids... and we had dreams. We grew up... we changed... some of us lost our hopes... our dreams. I think of all I've done... the laughter and the friends that I once knew...

Volume 2
LOST
Sometimes people need to get lost before they can find their way.

MY LATIN NUMBER
All is peaceful and serene on a tropical island analogous to early youth. Gentle breezes and carefree nights of endless tranquility. But nothing stays the same and the tempo of life increases to a whirlwind of excitement.

OUT ON A LIMB
Reaching for answers sometimes takes courage. There are sacrifices necessary in order to achieve worthwhile goals. Out on a limb, alone for what I feel, will free me inside and prove just what is real.
© D. Vine, S. Taylor, T. Gamino
LONG SHOT
Long shots pay off well. There's excitement here that heats things up. You may start off not knowing your outcome and you may be haunted by doubts. But if you find your strengths and press on, you just may be that very special winner.

SERENITY
Instrumental. Weaving melody that slowly grows to a crescendo and slips back to beginnings.

I WANT TO BE A STAR
Stars stand alone in the universe, so we're all stars in our own way. I don't need a stage, to give a helping hand, to brighten up a day if I can. Stars are really everyone, ‘cause everyone can help another man.

DON'T FORGET TO DREAM
We all started out as kids... and we had dreams. We grew up, we changed. Some of us lost our hopes... our dreams. I think of all I've done, the laughter and the friends that I once knew. And though they're in my past, their memories still last.
