Musician Note:
Of all my ballads – this was the one that happened after Dave specifically suggested I write a tune for me to sing and play solo on stage. I think the result surprised us both. Clearly heavily influenced by my own life circumstances and my deep connection with Adele’s 21 album this tune still leaves me raw when I hear it. I was strongly tempted to end the album with this song – however decided I didn’t want to leave things this way. The saxophone solo (played by Marcus the week before his own wedding) added a stirring passion that contrasted the vocals to give the song the soul it needed to feel finished.
Performers:
Jason Dodge – lead and background vocals, piano
Marcus Ali – saxophone solo
