), and Rich Berta, guitar and bass player (and he can do everything else, too!). We had a very interesting experience the 2nd day. We were recording "Child in Me", and literally did it like 30 times. The song kept going through many transformations, (inspired mostly by Tim), and finally i started to get irritated because we were taking too long. we were actually writing an composing the song during a recording session! so i let him know i was upset which ended in me wanting to stop for the day. Well i was convinced by all to just take a break and listen to what we'd done so far. so that's what we did and the magic started then and there! listening to all that we'd laid down already, we all started coming up with so many wonderful ideas in terms of production and arrangements, it was a moment every creative person craves and waits for. and we were able to go back and record "Child in Me"(it only went through 7 more transformations!! haha!
)
Music is meant to speak to the soul, to transport the listener to another space on a different plane of understanding. If the artist does her job, the listener is taken to a place deep inside the realm of emotional connectivity; I'm supposed to feel the words you sing, experience the story you tell through the melody of your voice. Listening to you took me somewhere deep tonight; after a couple of careful playbacks I had to write to you, if not for any other reason than to tell you that tonight, your music made me smile. And I haven't smiled in a long time. It's refreshing to hear something, someone different. Thank you, Kiyomi.
