There's a Stranger, Knocking at my Door
Some songs are written in a matter of minutes, and for others it may take hours. In this case, however, I guess it took years. I wrote the verses while I was living in Berlin, Germany, but never really performed it much because it always felt like something was missing. Years later, while living in Ohio, I added the chorus, and sang this with my sister Sarah, who took the lead vocals and really made this song special.
This song is about trying to overcome addiction, or something destructive in life. Unfortunately, sometimes addiction can come in unnoticeably, or even allowed in with good intentions, and I think that's what may have happened in this song.
I had the pleasure of working with the multi-talented @aweber on this song, and he recorded and edited it in his home studio. Also, a bunch of friends, including @yumyumseth and @jrue sang back up vocals and really lifted this with a spirit of hope at the end.
Once again, thank you to all of you for such support. I've really enjoyed reading your comments these last couple of days, and meeting folks from all over the world!
Where can I hear the song?
