Open Road
My granddaughter drove herself to school for the first time recently and mom sent a ten second video of her waving through the window and pulling out of the driveway. That little clip made me cry and inspired this song, as I remembered when her mom(my daughter) did the same.
Another brilliant one Charlotte!
It was on my “homework” list for group work. Check! Now on to Next one.
Lovely Charlotte, richly visual lyrics that transport the listener along with the journey.
Thank you Kyle. That video clip inspired it all….
Another lovely song Charlotte. Really nice to put your optimism in the younger generations.
Thank you! I think the younger generation is optimism starved….
Tender
Thank you…I know how much her mom(my daughter) loves that girl…as do I…
Wonderful song again Charlotte. Are you looking to win your own challenge? Got to be a contender. Love it
Thanks, Huw. Having only written two songs during the pandemic, I am now keenly aware that in spite of being an introvert, I needed interaction with real live human beings to be inspired to write again. I am so grateful for this group that has been so supportive.
Gosh this is beautiful. “I wish there was a road sign for the dangers up ahead” a favourite bit and gorgeous 3 part harmonies.
Thank you! I love that girl so much, and I could just feel her mother’s heart when she watched her drive off…
Another truly beautiful song Charlotte. It’s such a great extended metaphor, and lovely singing as ever.
Some songs seem to have always existed and this is one of those. Loving.
You’ve such a gift for songwriting & performing, Charlotte. You breathe optimism & emotion into your music. I love this.
