Post #39 - Song

Hey guys,

Jimmy told me about this song. It's sung by a local artist named E.V. who actually goes to SFU with Jimmy's friend, Birinder (Bear). Bear plays the dhol for E.V. - but not in this song.

Anyways, E.V. and his friend wrote this song for their moms. Their moms are both single mothers. They're hoping to get it played on the Beat 94.5 on Mother's Day. They made a video for the song as well by asking fans to send in pictures of themselves with the closest people in their lives. The first 100 or so pictures were selected and are in the video, which is a slideshow.

...Something about the CHORUS of this song really touched me and made me think about Mama...and you, Roger. Don't really know why. Here it is:

If I could stand tall for a moment,
Not fall for a moment,
I would make it to that moment for you.

If I could inhale for a second,
Exhale for a second,
I’d breathe that second for you...

Maybe I should face every moment,
And not chase every moment,
Embrace more moments with you.

But now I’m on the grind every second,
Instead of lying every second,
I'm gonna make it to the top for you...

...Thanks Jimmy! I've said it before and I'll say it again, you have great taste in music :)
