I've just completed this arrangement for my newest song, "Step Aside." It's about leaving when you don't know where you're going. More songs on the Music page. Step Aside
Letting go of all the love you never knew It’s not easy now, is it? You know it’s not what you want but you don’t know what you do You just kind of go with it. Too old to just get up and start again, Too young to imagine the rest of your life with him, The money, the home, the pets, the friends you pull in half, The job, the garden, the kids you never had. Letting go it takes a lot of time to think it through So you don’t regret it. The pull of desire leads you heart away but still you stay Don’t know if you should let it. Mondays anxious fears kept you up too late By Wednesday it’s not so bad, you’ll just accept your fate Friday decide to take a ride and leave the state, But then you wait, Paralyzed. Push past the inertia to move. Draw your breath, forget what you have to lose. It feels so slow when you first fight gravity’s pull When you’re so uncertain of your final goal. But you find the strength, And you break the past, Apologize, Close your eyes, And step aside.

The excellent downer from OK Computer played on the piano. Enjoy. A solo acoustic cover of "Drumming Song" by Florence + The Machine. If you'd tried to leave a comment before, you were prompted to upload a file in order to contact me... This has been fixed. Thanks for the heads up, G!
EDIT: Date has been changed from May 20 to May 19. Come on out! Come see the SGLS and the Downriver Community Voices May 19. I'll be singing with them! Here's some rowdy ROCK performed last night at The Rockery in Wyandotte. Hear more at the 120 Minute Men website.
Just tonight, I finished writing and recording "Resonance." Check it out! Edit: Updated mix uploaded 5/2/12 RESONANCE Caress the gentle flowing of your hair Heartbeat quickens as our thoughts slowly subside Your touch meets with mine, together we ignite The world was conceived to make this moment just for us tonight We belong We are one We combine We are sound and we are silence Our souls hum in resonance Space between is ever moving, never stationary Blur the line of flesh that once divided you and me Ecstatic breath our senses mesh and we become the beat Tonight in this moment the whole world we will conceive We belong We are one We entwine We are love and we are grace Our souls hum in resonance We give life A song inspired by bad roads, icy windshields, and hot coffee. Here the studio version here. |
