I Have to See You

Out of the 40 or so songs I've made in my short career, I may be the most proud of this one so far.

The words and the feeling tone for "I Have to See You" were ready for years. However, every time I took it to a producer, they would try to create it through their filter of what passion, need, missing and wanting someone looked like. It simply wasn't the same as mine and my heart was never content with the creation.

Then one day I decided to produce the song myself. I got on my old lap top, turned on Garage Band and I obsessively played with this song day after day, after day, after day...until my heart felt fulfilled. I had produced songs before on a smaller level.. but this one I gave my all...studying all the intricacies of the software to make the song as piercing and emotionally driven as possible. People.. you know the saying, "If you want something done right, sometimes you gotta do it yourself..." Well bam! This is a prime example. No matter how hard of a task it may seem.. sometimes you have to commit and go for it! I promise, the universe will respond.

Anyways, with this song, I wanted people to feel what I felt... and remember when they felt the same. I wanted it to strike a universal chord. I really wanted it to. And I think it did : )

"Another Level"

Track #5

The first line of the song is "You say you like my this, you say you like my that.. If you really like it, prove it to my Cat." You can take 'Cat' on many different levels. (excuse the pun) Cat may refer to genitalia. Or Cat may refer to your instinctive, intuitive self... Or that higher self that just knows things... (a cat's sixth sense) That higher self that knows if someone really cares about you.

Speaking of genitalia, some of us are sexual creatures, and a healthy, virile man that satisfies needs is imperative. Your cat must be taken care of. It simply has to be. Hence the line, "prove it to my cat." Others of us are a bit more cerebral, and the intellectual side of us must be nurtured. Then some of us, need our intuitive/spiritual side nurtured.. where our sixth senses are pleased and our higher chakras embraced. We need relationships where we teach each other something and expand each other's lives. And then some of us, like myself, are all the above. Prove it to me in every way and I will simultaneously do the same for you.

Second line.. "You say you like my smile, you say you like my swag, if you really like it throw some riches in my bag.. I'm on Another Level.." Ladies and men, know your extreme worth. We're treasures truly. TRULY. Know it, act accordingly and your companion will follow suit. Your companion must add value to your life. Must.

Now, understand that I'm spewing all this wisdom, as I sit here single. Well kinda. But that's another story. So live your life however you wish, what do I truly know? However, ladies (and gentlemen for that matter) my point of this song is, walk tall with your power. You are a treasure. Know it. Own it. You're on Another Level.
