My wife is an incredible human being. She keeps her head up and her eye on the ball. She swings @ every pitch life has thrown @ her. I've even pitched relief when life grew tired of throwing her curve balls. Life gave us a tough loss but she turned it into something positive. Coming out of that event she wrote this song. This song is a personal triumph in my opinion. Not many people know Kate plays guitar. Fewer people know that she has written songs. I love her voice. Her voice is one of the things that made me fall in love with her so hard. Kate has musical desires and this song is the realization of one of them. I'm very lucky to be with a girl like her. She's cool, she's kind and she rocks pretty hard.
I love the version we got. She said it was "very hard exposing myself." From the outside looking in I was blown away by how easy she made it look. I thought I was going to have to pull music out of her. As soon as I said go she just turned it on. I look forward to hearing what else she's going to come up with. I'm her biggest fan.
We did the song very naked. We just set up two mics and record our guitars live in our office. Then I set a microphone in front of Kate and she just sang her heart out. It's a very sad song but I get so happy listening to her share it with me.
My last thought about Kate will be the same as my fist thought about her.
What a woman!
