JD and i were climbing up the backside of a Connestee Falls on a hidden old side trail, and I took a break to soak up the surroundings when I heard the sweetest sound. It was a baby bird somewhere above me chirping these tiny baby bird squeaks. The sound was new like a fresh pair of little white baby boots sitting fresh on a shelf, unworn. Transfixed on this birdsong from above, I began to sink into a melody lead by acoustic guitar and a soft voice. The song is "baby bird"
Anyway, you never know when a song will pop into your head. I sang it in my head for three days until I got home last night to get it down on the guitar. I was not losing this one. :)
I'm going to record a demo of it today for either a LEAF album or perhaps an acoustic album of my own songs under the name LEAF. I will have to run it by JD, but I'm thinking of an all acoustic album with my vocals and perhaps some backups and a shaker or two. We could call the album 'naked'.
