10 weeks and counting until the album release! I can't believe it. Still lots to be done, and taking it one day at a time, 1 task at a time. :) We are in good shape though, and should be sending the CD to be printed by the beginning of May!
This week I am telling the story of the song "I'm Sorry" which is a fun, rocking tune with a little spunk and drive to it. The word to describe this song is, well, SASS. The concept of this song was actually conceived in a brainstorming session with amazing singer-songwriter, artist and friend Jess Godwin. We got together to do a little writing and we had the collective idea of being tired of apologizing for everything in life, particularly apologizing for being who we are. So we wrote down a lot of words, ideas and thoughts and a few melodies. I went home and set an intention to come up with a song and share it with her. She was over at my house one day and I played this song for her on piano...and she said this is your song Nat! Take it and run. So I did. :)
I'm Sorry
Music and Lyrics by Natalie Myre
I’m sorry I’m just so complicated and
I’m sorry I think too much
I’m sorry I’m tall and opinionated
And I’m sorry I cry too much
Why am I always trying to change the way I am
Trying to prove myself to you
Oh
I’ve been trying so hard for you to see me
Changing so you can validate me
I want to prove it, I need a gold star
Oh I’m so tired of
Spending my time trying to please you
Just doing everything you want to
Give me a break dear, don’t want to do it anymore
I’m sorry I’m not always so clever
I’m sorry I sometimes doubt
I’m sorry I constantly want to be better
And I’m sorry I call you out
Why am always trying to change the way I am
Trying to prove myself to you
Oh
I’ve been trying so hard for you to see me
Changing so you can validate me
I want to prove it, I need a gold star
Oh I’m so tired of
Spending my time trying to please you
Just doing everything you want to
Give me a break dear, don’t want to do it anymore
I’m not sorry I’m sometimes wrong
I’m not sorry I make mistakes
I’m not sorry I ramble on
I’m not sorry
I’m not sorry for being me
I’m not sorry you can’t see me
I’m not sorry
Yeah Ooh
I'm Sorry
I’m Not Sorry
