- I cannot explain
how happy I am that I have this. This is actually the
very first take ever done. I worked out the
chords pretty quick, and wrote a couple verses (I end
up singing the first verse twice in here), and pow I
flipped on the camcorder. This is my "Yesterday". I
knew it the second I played the tape back. This is the
soundtrack for Palaur. This is what plays during the
opening credits. And truly what makes it perfect is
the fact that it describes our situation so well, yet
it can be sung to a baby. I wrote it for
MY situation, and it can relate to others.
I hate when writers try so hard to relate to
others. I've always felt that if it does? Cool. But
how does that help me? I write for me.
I sing for me. Now I can perform for others,
or play for others. But writing feelings and singing
is truly for me and the subject at hand. And not only
do the songs in Palaur show that, they're in many
cases first time recordings as I was writing
them.
