Thought I’d throw up a couple of videos of two songs. One, I wrote last week in a couple of days. The other, last year, some time in spring. They’re both about struggling with mistakes and actualizing the self. I’ve been writing a lot of sad songs for about as long as I can remember, and I think it just comes naturally to me – whether because the piano is such a melancholy instrument, or I just need to get it out of my system. At any rate, here they are, in a rough-and-ready format.

(I didn’t realize the video size was too small until I saw them on YouTube. I might re-upload them within the next couple of days, but I threw them up here tonight to meet my “two blog posts a week” quota!)

New Song 1 – Passion Play (Spring 2013)

New Song 2 – Down (Winter 2014)

As always, your feedback and constructive criticism and comments of any kind are exceedingly welcome. Thanks so much for watching and listening!
