It has been a very long time between coincidences – although not for lack of material, as I have pixels and pixels of them piling up on my desktop. Hopefully with this next installment, we will also see my idle ways become a thing of the past. This MC is a little left of the middle, but after checking out the Toni track posted on facebook by dear Miss Neha I felt compelled to get back down to business. I cleared my morning schedule so that I could slap this one together for all you Toni/Britney lovers out there!
Enjoy… Yesterday – Toni Braxton ft Britney (the Jaden Music way)
“There’s nothing left… There’s no us – just me and you…”
Ok, so as much as I don’t like to discuss these facts with most people, I have been in a few relationships in my time. The thing that always leaves me wondering is the way it starts out so great, and then as time goes on we drift further and further apart (“we” being a colossal generalisation in reference to every person that has ever found themselves in a doomed relationship). Sometimes it happens so gradually that you just wake up one day and feel like you don’t even know the person lying next to you (assuming that it IS actually your partner next to you, and not that hot chick from Blockbuster whose name you just can’t seem to remember…)
There is no real explanation as to why; no particular occurrence that sparks it. It doesn’t feel like your heart has just been stomped on, and it doesn’t usually result in broken vases or black eyes. Perhaps it is more like the way you felt after walking out of the cinema at the end of Seven (assuming that you’re not someone with unresolved sadistic obsessions) If you haven’t seen Seven, you should probably stop reading and sort that out right about now (and if you can’t count to 7 you should really be asking yourself how you managed to get this far through my blog without setting fire to your special prescription ear muffs)
Anyhow, I seem to be digressing from the original point of this story (if there was in fact a point to begin with…) I suggest that you take 4 minutes to check out the track below, and then waste the rest of the day trying to take your pulse using a wooden spoon.
With this track, the intention was to take an every day situation and put a unique twist into the recount – “I wanna be your passenger”, rather than “I think you’re cute and want to get to know you”. The biggest challenge I faced in the songwriting/production process was capturing the excitement and “chemistry” of meeting an intriguing and attractive stranger for the first time.
I am a strong believer in experiencing life as a journey – not just as a destination – and Passenger is an expression of precisely these sentiments.
“I hope this ride can last forever and we never get there”
A big shout out to my close friend and fellow musical passenger Miss Neha – whose amazing voice and beautiful personality really brought this track to life. You really are are a one of a kind K.D.
If you liked the track, be sure to check out the “making of” …
Peace
