Change
Prelude: A good friend once told me that if I want to find God, look for God in change.
Change was written in 2005 during a period when I was still in between meds and doctors. I yearned to get stable as I lived with Bipolar but there was so many factors that needed to be addressed: Tested, tried and re-tried, medications working and not working and even which doctor to work with. It was an arduous process. All I knew is I wanted to change.
The song was written in a moment of clarity; meaning, I was not in a desperate state. I wanted to change from a life of chaos, limited self-control, and minimal accountability, and I wanted to take control of my life, take responsibility for my choices and actions and live a normal life.
As I listened to Change being sung in my head it was as you hear it. I’m not sure which genre it falls into. Perhaps you can leave a comment and tell me what you hear. What I did hear from start to finish was Kelli’s voice singing which is why she is doing to vocals in the typical “Kelli is amazing” fashion. I also want to acknowledge my friend Tony Benach for playing live drums on this piece. He’s the best drummer I know.
