This song is about second chances. If you’re lucky enough to get one, run with it.
Musically, I was paying homage to the first really successful group I was in in Chicago, Illinois. It was an a capella music and comedy group called Four Guys Standing Around Singing.
That’s all me you hear on the recording. We did it in eight hours on one day.
The Random Blogging of a Performing Songwriter
Posts
Welcome
On this blog, I share my thoughts about songwriting. Mostly.
I think it may also have some interesting life lessons, one way or another. My take is, that to be a good songwriter (and I realize that the word “good” is one of those amorphous, completely subjective words), one also needs to be a student of life, have many interests, and be interested in lifelong learning.
I’ve been writing songs since 1973. Not “good” songs. I was 13 years old in 1973. But I’ve learned a few things along the way, and I’d like to share them. These are things that obviously represent my views, and reflect the kinds of songs I like. You may take them or leave them. We all have different tastes. As it should be. But, please leave comments for me – whether you liked my post or not. We can only grow stronger together with a good, honest dialog.
Thanks for reading, and enjoy! (Or not. Your choice.)
Noah
