I finally recorded a vocal and harmony to Now’s When this month. I’ve never been a strong singer and will often hear a different voice than my own on a song … that’s the case here, where I really hear a female voice on the lead. Even though I mangle the vocal, it brings me a lot of joy to play and sing — especially when the JBJBs sing it together at the piano. Written in the Spring of 2009 after watching 3 consecutive Disney movies with my 8-year old daughter, it’s about the beauty all around us — if we just take the time to look.

This song is supposed to be very simple, and strictly commercial. So for any brand managers and mad men reading: the little blue triangle below will lead you to pure gold. Looking for a vehicle for cruising into the hearts of consumers everywhere? You found it! I’m tellin’ ya: advertising GOLD ; )

right here in front of me

now my title’s here
first chapter’s clear,
gonna write my book
right here with you

listen to me when I say
(Chorus)

Don’t want to live a life
that I will never see,
gonna hold the things
right here in front of me

didn’t have to wait
shouldn’t hesitate,
gonna start right here
with you it’s true

listen to me when I say
(Chorus)

(intro & outro below, vocal unrecorded)
we’ve got to learn to live today
then we’ll see that
there’s nothing else — but everything
just as it is, and
open your eyes to see th...
