Back to songs about family members. I wrote this for one of my daughters but I hope the imagery is general enough for people to identify with the message.
Had an interesting experience writing this song - I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about the lyrics and had to complete the song before I was able to get back to sleep.
This song was the first time I wrote in the first person from some else's point of view. It was an interesting exercise and I've done it a few times since then.
It was also the first time that I felt that electronic drums had the right feel for the song - even though I've blended an electronic kit and acoustic kit for the final drum track.more
