Just Because...

I am just writing this in an album making delirium...I think that means that I am "le tired." Now, before I "have a nap," I want to make some comments on what I did tonight. I locked myself in the Cove Studios (also known as my room) at around 8:30pm tonight and I am just now reaching the state of epic sleepiness that precedes a wonderful night's sleep. I worked (Please) Don't Leave Me, Walking On the Sky, Scarlet Moon, and You Told Me You'd Be Back. All of the songs are in excellent shape, and the first single will definitely be ready for this weekend. I am hella excited about that. Prepare yourselves for (Please) Don't Leave Me. It's a good summer song, methinks. In any case, I am extremely proud to note that,while the songs I have written for this album definitely sound like me, they are all incredibly different sorts of songs. I do not think any song sounds the same, and they are still pretty cohesive as an album. I have stated--on twitter I believe--that most modern records don't have such a quality (because they don't have to). That, however, would ne'er stop my desire to make albums in a way similar to my heroes. The album is an entire body of work, and should be taken as such. Making a record is more fun than I thought it would be, and doing so much on my own is quite rewarding. I look forward to sharing the fruits of my labor. I worked Something Strange (and part of (Please) Don't Leave Me) with my friend, Vinay. He plays bass, so you'll hear some of his work on this record in instances where I wasn't sure of my own line. He has been a great help. Anyway, sleep is taking me. I am just SO EXCITED! Love and Peace, ZK
