The Temporary Nature Of It All (Acoustic)

Everyone says that I’ve done well
Shot for the moon, landed on venus
Everyone sees the difference

I’m just dying to know
What my aura shows

I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes
Played it backwards to the last summer night
Time moved slow. The neon glow knocked me down but showed my colors
I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes

Your mind alone sets you apart
Your sense of style puts you on top
Your goodwill itself is enough

I’m just dying to know
What my aura shows

I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes
Played it backwards to the last summer night
Time moved slow. The neon glow knocked me down but showed my colors
I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes

In another, other lifetime, I will know how to find you
In another, other lifetime, I’ll just dance

I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes
Played it backwards to the last summer night
Time moved slow. The neon glow knocked me down but showed my colors
I’ve been trying-to see me through your eyes

See Me Through Your Eyes

On this album is the greatest capturing of back-up singers I have ever achieved during these wonderful rustic settings for recoding music. Mitch Seekins, Suzie Ungerleider, Kelly Adams and Kevin Kloss stood to the side of the band and crouched under the low roof of the barn in front of a couple mics and sang their hearts out to most of the songs from these sessions. They can be heard at their lush best in “Never Intended”. 

This album is actually a collection of recordings done “in the barn’ (literally – it was a barn) with the first sessions taking place in, I think, 2010 and the second set of sessions in 2012. If you want to see some of the story of the first sessions, they are part of the documentary film I made called Off The Grid. Not only that, but I also threw on the final mix for this album the song “I Am Canadian” which I had recorded at some point with the Northern Pikes, but then we kept it off the EP we put together called “Long Walk Home” for some reason. Like the next album I would record “live off the floor” (“Off The Grid”), this is a fine selection of roots-acoustic tracks played by talented and skilled acoustic musicians. 

One big thrill for me was finally getting to do a duet with the extremely talented Oh Suzanna as she was called at the time (now Suzie Ungerleider): Another Glass Of Wine, which then doubled in thrill when she allowed me to cut her song “River Blue”. 
“Wonderful Things” were lyrics Kelly Adams emailed to me one day and for some reason they struck a chord, so to speak, and the song just flowed out as I sat in my bed one night. They are beautiful and powerful lyrics that touch your soul.
