The Way it Hits Ya


If there is one thing I know about composing music, it is this. It always hits you the right way.

If you write a song, and I mean write a song, not just pound around on the piano, it is a small portion of your emotion. It is your fingers and breath emulating your feelings right into the song. When you listen to what you created, it is like your soul is looking into a mirror, and you feelings resonate overwhelmingly within.

I have composed and recorded a few songs, and I cannot help but get excited. These songs may not bring the same amount of joy and enthusiasm as they do me, but I can listen to them over and over again, and I cannot help but smile every time I listen to them.
