A soundbite from my upcoming album
Oct 21, 2012I would like to share with you about the album of my songs that is coming out in January 2013. One of the things that I learned in the process is that in life there are dreams beyond dreams. Yet again I am allowed to see how something that hadn’t been even a thought a year ago, first turned into a seed of a possibility and now is slowly but surely becoming reality.
The album is called ARE WE READY. There are 11 songs. I wrote them. I wonder whether a more precise way of saying it is I wrote them down. When I listen to some of them, I often wonder – did I really write that?? I believe that my most important role in the process of song writing is being a scribe for whomever is actually doing the work. Thank you, Whomever, for choosing me as your scribe; I hope I am not screwing it up.
Some of the songs will make you laugh; others you will find intense; a few you might not understand – no worries, some of them remain a mystery to me too. And even though my songs might sound personal, when they come out of me, I feel that they talk for many many people, and maybe even you.
There is much more to be said about the process of the actual recording, all the people that have been participating in making this happen and, of course, the video of the song “Happiness” that is planned to be filmed next weekend in Montreal (there will be live updates on twitter) – this all will come. But for now, here is a soundbite from ARE WE READY:
