The Song and Story Of "Heaven"

Before you click the graphic to listen to my song "HEAVEN" I wanted to give you some background on how the song came to be.


This song had 2 "firsts" for me. This was the first song I EVER got a melody, and harmonies with. The second "First" is that this is the first song I ever performed from stem to stern ALONE....From the instrumental to vocal, to engineering to mixing. (laying of the tracks)


The actual song was written when I was 13 years old.
I was a teenager who by this point knew "she" was in "her" soul a "he".
The pain was incredible.
At the time I had a HUGE crush on actress Loni Anderson.


I prayed for God to take me. I didn't want this. The pain was like a sword deep inside my soul, and to me, dying was the best way to stop the pain. I knew I could never "kill myself" and I was relying on God to take me. ( something I would continue to do as a teenager.)

In my dreams it was Loni and I . We had a special place in "HEAVEN". My dreams were "our time". The setting was ALWAYS "Heaven" for it was Only there that we could truly be together.
