The idea for this cover started back in late October, when Zoe and Thomas did a short acoustic cover of this song on Instagram. I had recently gotten into Mac Ayres' work, and I loved the way they sounded on Easy so much that I decided to write a full arrangement for them and use it for one of my final projects! Most of this was tracked back in mid-December, but I didn't get the last components in until earlier in May, and it was wonderful to watch it evolve.
I took a while to figure out how to handle the horns - I was originally attempting to make something complex, but then I heard the work of Jerry Hey and realized it didn't need to be! His arrangements rely on a lot of octave unison for very pronounced lines that add a lot of punch to a pop horn chart, something memorable that people will hold onto! I'd like to say I've done a bit of that here. The vocals were also a blast to work on - I almost had nothing set in stone before going in, and in the 4-hour recording session with Thomas and Zoe, we worked out a lot of fun ideas and just had a blast.
I consider myself blessed to have the opportunity to attend such a great school like Berklee with wonderful musicians and friends that I can work with on super cool projects like this. For that reason, this project means a lot to me and I really do hope you enjoy it. Back to VGM next week!

Great sound and arrangement. I wish you would collaborate with Zoe on a few more tracks. Her look, her sound, her phrasing . . . she is headed for more than what's she currently doing . . . I can feel it. I hope she gets some solid support with a talent agency or manager. Charles, keep doing what you doing and try to up it a notch or 2. I know you have the talent !!!

@@charlesritzmusic Hell yeah I'd be super down to collab on this style!
Oh, you heard
What they say
Oh, the more things change
The more they stay the same
Ain't that a shame? (I know it's a shame)
I've been good
For some time
I'd be lying if I said that
You ain't on my mind
Been tryin' to give it some time
Feeling like I'm
Runnin' away
Never had the chance
Chance to say
I can say that loving you is easy
I don't need to prove a single thing
Somewhere along the way
I guess you got under my skin
I put all my cards out on the table
You ain't ever gonna show your hand
I would rather hold you close than
Try to understand
Mornin' sun
Mornin' high
Oh, I think this haze is for now my best disguise
No need to think about why
What'cha say
Starry eyed
How you love to smile
And watch the clouds reside
Just tryin' to give it some time
Feeling like I'm
Runnin' away
Never had the chance
Chance to say
I can say that loving you is easy
I don't need to prove a single thing
Somewhere along the way
I guess you got under my skin
I put all my cards out on the table
You ain't ever gonna show your hand
I would rather hold you close than
Try to understand
I put all my cards out on the table
You ain't ever gonna show your hand
I would rather hold you close than
Try to understand
I can say that loving you is easy
I don't need to prove a single thing
Somewhere along the way
I guess you got under my skin
I put all my cards out on the table
You ain't ever gonna show your hand
I would rather hold you close than
Try to understand

Dude look at you. It’s been a while, Nice beard
Ha, yeah! It started as a No Shave November thing, and then it's just kinda stuck since then! It's been interesting, to be sure.
