about

I wrote this in 2017 and it’s taken me two years to release it. The mind of an artist sometimes goes like this:

Why am I making music?
Why bother to make music?
What’s the point of making music?
Who am I making music for?
If I am making music for myself, what’s the point of releasing it?
Will people get that I am deliberately being cheesy in my production style in this song?
Do I care what people think?
No.
Then why release music?
And the cycle goes on.

And then I had a conversation with a photographer friend of mine, Maggie Dylan, who has been working towards an exhibition. She explained her own questioning of releasing art, the ‘whys’ and ‘why nots’ that circle our heads, as artists. We spoke about how some artistic projects are slowed down due to personal things that go on in our lives.As soon as she said this it rang like a big bell in my head. Sometimes things go on in our lives that question what we are doing as artists. And then I was sad to think that she maybe wouldn’t release her art. And so in this, she encouraged me to release mine. Even though I have been sitting on it for years and even though I don’t particularly think it is anything special at all. But it’s ‘out there’ now. And once it is, it is none of my business how it is received.

lyrics

It’s a long long winding road sometimes lonely

but no road is ever long with good company

It’s not what happens to you that determines who you are

It’s how you play the game that makes you a superstar



So if something has been taken away from you or if someone’s let you down

come cry on the shoulder

let me turn it all around



Let me turn it all all-around

let me turn it all all-around



Touch me in three places

The mind the heart and soul

It’s not about the destination but how we choose to go



So if something has been taken away from you or if someone’s let you down

come cry on the shoulder

let me turn it all around
