Gina didn’t really have intentions of recording Hero, but while i was soundchecking her for another song she started doing the tapping on her guitar and it sounded incredible through the microphone setup i was using. I regret not paying a little more attention to mixing her vocals, but i’m happy that i got this gem-in-progress on tape – so to speak.
I swear, my stuff is so amateur when it follows a Gina hour…

Well, i’m a little fried right now, but i know i had reasons to link the following blogs eight hours ago, and i’m sure those reasons are still very applicable: Intergalactic (it’s Clueblog!),Thought Bubbles (for their incredible site design), Blistered Avalon (and the amazing art collection therein), and Jerwin (who’s sexy even when he’s not ‘thonning the night away).

Until You Awake was the last song of the Blogathon last year. For the entire week i had been stuck for something excellent to close with, and as i became more and more involved with reading Mollie the song starting coming to me, slowly but surely. I remember all of the stages: sitting on my bedroom floor, furiously scribbling down the words … on the couch with Gina, desperately trying to get the picking pattern right … in front of my computer, getting it right on the first take.
In the year between then and now a lot has happed to change everyone in the world, and a lot has happened to me individually. That song stuck through, though, and every time i play it for someone new i get to tell the story about last year’s blogathon and how i really felt as though i was having a concrete effect on something. And on someone. In a way i think it’s both the most personal and the most serious song i’ve ever written.
I hope you enjoy it. Thank you, Mollie.
