DOMELGABOR: OCEAN DREAMING - A Soft, Gentle, Romantic R&B/Soul Song
DOMELGABOR: OCEAN DREAMING - A Soft, Gentle, Romantic R&B/Soul Song About a Man longing for his summer love. And the soulful, baritone voice (also used in "BETWEEN YOUR LINES" and "SALTWATER SKIN") brings to mind this nostalgic R&B/Soul sound of the 80s, with legends like Luther Vandross, Marvin Gaye, and Teddy Pendergrass.
The story behind this R&B Soul track
Following in the same vein as my three previously released tracks "PARTY SPARK", "BETWEEN YOUR LINES", and "SALTWATER SKIN", "OCEAN DREAMING" is the fourth chapter of the story of a man who, after meeting a woman he connected with at a party ("PARTY SPARK") and spending the night with her at her apartment ("BETWEEN YOUR LINES"), not knowing in the morning if it is a fling or a love that will last, decides to bring her to the beach ("SALTWATER SKIN"). After a while, their relationship ended, and "OCEAN DREAMING" is about him walking along the shore where they went together, longing for his love, now gone.
I know it sounds quite "cliché," but most R&B/Soul songs are about "Make Out & Break Up" (like most songs, actually). So why change the recipe? The past 50 years have proven that it works, and people still want to hear more of them. The reason is that it may have happened to any of us, making it relatable. And the soft voice, warm ambiance, and R&B/Soul atmosphere are ideal for conveying the message.
The Groove of R&B/Soul
During the late 70s, 80s, and 90s, I listened to (and still do) a lot of Motown, R&B, and Soul music. Those two decades are considered the golden era for these genres, highlighted by legends such as Luther Vandross, Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, Barry White, Prince, Sade, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Tony Braxton, The Isley Brothers, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Lionel Richie, Bobby Brown, Destiny's Child, and more. Other significant artists included Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Sade, and Anita Baker. The 90s also introduced iconic groups like Boyz II Men, TLC, and Jodeci, as well as solo artists like Babyface and Mary J. Blige. Then in the 2000s, artists like Alicia Keys, John Legend, Nora Jones, Ne-Yo, Maxwell, D'Angelo, Brandy, Erykah Badu, Usher, and many more.
The Inspiration behind this R&B/Soul track
With "BETWEEN YOUR LINES," "SALTWATER SKIN," and now "OCEAN DREAMING," I wanted to recreate the R&B/Soul male voice, ambiance, and atmosphere of the '80s, and frankly, I love the result. If you liked these three songs, stay tuned for more like them coming soon.
Lyrics
"OCEAN DREAMING" by @domelgabor Lyrics
Ocean dreaming
Sun brightly shining
Salt water shimmering
On the beach strolling
Warm summer scene
Vast ocean blue
Waves breaking through
A gentle breeze is drifting
Silver drops trickling
Down your tanned skin
Ocean dreaming
Pulling me back to you
Salt on my skin
Reminds me of you
Waves keep moving
But I stay the same
Lost in the summer
Calling your name
Can't hide my feelings
Can't stop breathing you in
Smell your scent in the wind
Taste the salt on your skin
On your lips
I'm softly kissing
Walking on the ocean's blue
I can't stop thinking of you
Even though we're through
Your memory in the waves
Your love my heart still craves
Ocean dreaming
I still feel you near
Salt water memory
Keeping you here
Waves keep moving
But my love remains
Summer story
Written in your name
Ocean dreaming
Calm and soothing
Since you've been gone
I feel lonely and alone
Sand, sun, and sea
You still live in me
Ocean dreaming
Ocean dreaming
You're still in my dreams
