Getting the vocal rhythm down now. First take. By the way, I don’t really sing, and this is the first time I’ve ever written a song.
This is a song I’m writing about how, when you love someone, you have to let go of them. If you cherish them, you have to respect their agency and autonomy and let them be their own person. Love is not a state of possession, but one of mutual surrender.
This is still that track of Ruddy Turnstone translating on his guitar what I came up with in my head, but he was the one who played it back to me instrumentally. I give credit everywhere it’s genuinely due.
