I can still remember doing the homestudio recording of this song because something magical happened. It was a hot summers day, must have been a saturday because I used to spent saturday’s the whole day recording in those days, not much time to do that during weekdays.
I remember hearing a bird sing nearby and believe it or not it seemed it responded to the sound coming from the speakers.
So I took some time recording this bird taking the microphone outside and then got the idea I simply had to get some of that birdsong into the recording.
And as you can hear in the break at 2:22 into the song there is that bird. Thank you, bird!
It’s early morning another day running fast because there’s things to do off to work to earn that little pay makes you think that there’s a curse on you
Ain’t the way I want it
Ain’t the way to be
Ain’t the way I need it
Ain’t the way for me
One day soon there’ll be a change and things will be like a dance all sunny days instead of rain and all around you nothing but friends
That’s the way I want it
That’s the way to be
That’s the way I need it
That’s the way for me
I’ve been waiting such a long long time but these are days that you can leave behind you Once you feel that every day is new Once there is passion in the things you do
It’s early morning a brand new day It’s early morning come and play
That’s the way I want it
That’s the way to be
That’s the way I need it
That’s the way for me
