Genesis
of "Here"
It all started with the organ.
Written late one afternoon; a chilly one at that, and in a very lonely
rehearsal studio. I had just re-introduced the piano to my repertoire
and was eager to begin writing on it.
But I called up an organ sound, and this was the first thing that came
out.
Yes, this song dates back to the Portable days, but it never really
finished. We did one rehearsal musically, where I just mouthed verse
lines and had this re-occurring Chorus melody: "If it's in the
wrong place at the wrong time; if it's in the wrong place, it ain't
here."
I just knew that, lyrically, this had to cut deep. It just took about a
year or two years before I really finished it.
They are about realizing the moment of truth in a relationship gone
sour. They are about affirming your dignity as you push away, as you say
"enough." Because, in truth, if the other person doesn't get
it...they never will. You have to know when to say when.
This song has always excited me on a personal, songwriting level. Not
just the elements of musical design, but just this place it puts
you. I just thoroughly enjoy singing it and connecting with the song's
intent.
Some may not get it, but I hope you do because it's a pretty nice
feeling. |
