Good morning!!
How nice to wake up to all these kind comments, pfffiew, glad you liked our song :woohoo:
Yes, like Tom said at the first IGC people asked me what I did, 'cause obviously I wasn't playing the guitar :laugh:
So when they heard I sing, many asked me if I write my own songs too. Well....No! I have never even had any singing lessons, I'm self taught, but it sure helps when you are born into a family who are always listening to or playing music.
I write poems, but I'm not able to read music sheets, so I just never even tried to hear any music to go with my poems.
So some at camp asked if they could read my work, which I did.
Now Tom there and then immediately started to humm a melody, which really impressed me A Lot! :cheer:
But we never got to the point of exchanging info to take it all to a higher plan.
Well now we did, and the rest is history !! :woohoo:
"Beautiful Madness" was written on November 28th 2013, and like most of my poems do, it just pops into my head, well....a feeling, or some first thoughts, then I just need to sit down for 15- 20 minutes or so and write and see where my pen leads me to
I'm so happy that Tom was willing to put such a huge effort into it all. Because really, he had the toughest job here! Writing the melody, putting all parts together while all are apart in different countries all of the time!
I'm making a huge bow for his beautiful guitar playing, creativity and honesty and of course not to forget his daughter Claire with her angelic voice, I'm her fan! I'm hoping to hear more from her too. She's fantastic :woohoo:
Last but not least, to all you kind and very supportive TG family members, it is as always a joy to read your heartwarming, encouraging and funny comments :silly:
I am still so thankful to Nessa, who introduced me to you all....! It has been an honor and pleasure from day one
Cheers,
C.C.
