This week I have written a song using every instrument I have – guitar, bass, violin, piano / synth, lap steel, speak-vocals (German “Sprechgesang“) and mandolin. Its been a blast. Today I wrote this song using a mandolin – which is a challenge – because it screams “Bluegrass” and as much as I love Bluegrass, I wanted something more “modern rock” or “modern Americana”. Also – with these trying times that we have, I wrote some lyrics that I am happy with.
There’s danger all around
In the sky and on the ground
What keeps us up at night
Is a world of a thousand frights
There’s danger all around
Its easy to see
What the world needs most right now
Is a little Love, Care and Empathy
The enemy is the one within
The one filled with sin
While we care about mankind
Others walk around blind
There’s danger all around
Its easy to see
What the world needs most right now
Is a little Love, Care and Empathy
