You can feel the influence of cross-over country songwriter and performer Paul Davis embedded into each of these amazing and wonderful songs.
His reflection, his tone, his wonderments at the experience of adolescence is universally thematic throughout all of these songs. I offer you a whole collection.
He understood infatuation, love, loss, longing and the need to sing to to touch the part in each of us which has felt the very same feelings. some of the sorrow, so or the joy. He's written for Steve Wariner, Dan Seals, England Dan, Starbuck, Robbie Dupree, Friends of Distinction ("Love or Let me be Lonely"!) Chris Cross and a host of other country/pop/rock artists. He didn't write losers. He was versatile and utterly prolific. He composed on keyboard, and you can often hear him on the piano, elecric keyboard or synth...weaving his somber magic. He's played a role in every one of the songs that that follows. May his soul find its way home, even as its shadow fills the rooms where our hearts only rarely get to go.
Thank you Paul, for giving us a chance at a Sweet Life.
The hyperlinks and video players follow. Just listen to one after the next. Let the mood surround and caress your heart. Don't be afraid to let go, to feel, to cry, to laugh. You may think that you don't like country music...this, rest assured, is a different country.
Faithfully,
Dazz
