A song that was particularly close to my heart to remix and especially to sing...So I tried to put my voice on this title that I love so much....And it is with immense joy that musical accomplice for almost 10 years....accompanied me on the piano.

This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 

  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. Finally, Mark added the hambone percussion at the end of the song, too, which we all consider a treat.

Stephen wasn't done with it, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin that looks like a Telecaster guitar. 

  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner. Mark did help with the production, though, as he's very good with editing and spotting mistakes that need to be corrected.

  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It to
ok a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

You gotta hold me 
I'm far away
on a distant road lost in a place made of sky
and the universe looks good today 
with the mention of his name
in the whispers of creation
and in the eyes of everyone everyday
there is a God who loves us
there is a God who stays
never walks away

Whispers of His Name

Every little piece of you is already spoken for
and every little piece of you is just what I was hoping for
But it's not gonna happen today
It may not happen tomorrow
but it's really going to happen someday
You know I got to pray

Now I'm going to take
One step and hope that you walk with me
Two Steps and hope that you hold my hand... I'm Gonna go out on a ledge.
Three steps and hope that you look in my eyes
Four steps and hope that you never tell me any lies

Every little piece of you is already spoken for
and every little piece of you is just what I was hoping for
But it's not gonna happen today

You know I got to pray

Now I'm going to take
One step and hope that you walk with me
wo Steps and hope that you hold my hand... I'm Gonna go out on a ledge.
Three steps and hope that you look in my eyes
Four steps and hope that you never tell me any lies

If there was only two traits that came through in my music, I would hope that it would seem to be effortless and inevitable.
