I will try to make this short.
It has always been one of my more relevant dreams to make music. Play music. Sing.
The latter being my weakest one, the one that requires the most work simply because I don't have a talent for singing. But I do write songs about things that I see as important. Well, important to me, anyways. Yeah... But that's what any musician would write about - stuff that's important to them. But I digress...

About making this short - I got the idea for the song about 10 years ago, couple of months ago my friend told me that I should record one of my songs at his tiny appartment studio. So I did.
I am mostly proud of the music. I did the whole thing during random sessions after work, max 2 hours per session. Didn't have the time to be completely critical of myself, I was just happy to have the opportunity to do this, as well as learning a lot every session.
As I am still happy and thankful for having the opportunity to fulfill the very start of my dreams, it's all still kinda bittersweet to me.
I wish I'd had more time and put more effort into the singing part. I do need to find my voice though. The one that's inside of me, wanting to burst out. Until that, I'm just a songwriter with a terrible voice. I would never want someone else sing my songs, but right now, I don't think I would say no to a partner who can actually sing.
But I absolutely love the pre-solo vocalizing and the guitar solo, bless my tits.
And if I want to be completely honest - it makes me hapy to even be able to have a record made. I am proud of the work I put into it. It has been an amazing experience. And I know that the next one will be better because I will work harder. For now, this will have to suffice.
Also - the lyrics seem like a mess, especially on the second part of the first verse and the whole second verse...
Cheerio!
