This album took me just over one and a half years to record. As independent artist who funded my own album and marketing (on a social worker’s salary!), I can honestly say – it was an interesting journey. One that was tough at times, but most definitely worth it.
Although “Wonderful life” is not the strongest song on this album, I chose it as the title track because it captures the essence of the album, or perhaps summarizes what I was trying to say in all the other songs on this album.
“Wonderful life” is about the light and dark side of life, the undeniable relationship between these two opposites, and how we cannot exist without either of them. It is about dreams and fears, restrictions and freedom, about truth and lies, addictive desires as opposed to love, about simplicity versus chaos, about venturing into the unknown vs staying where it is comfortable and safe, it’s about fantasy in a world full of harsh realities. “Wonderful life” is a promise to myself to live life to its fullest and to never be afraid of change and ones instincts.
I am almost sad this creative process is over. Luckily a new interesting time awaits me, which is exciting and scary at the same time – something I am quite used to by now.
Thank you for visiting this site, taking the time, being curious and showing interest in my music. I hope you purchase this album and that you find something in this album that inspires and touches you. I hope you love this album.
With all my love!
