Making the Album Episode 7



The 7th in a series of (let's face it) amateur video blogs documenting the making of my 4th studio album to be released in 2011 (I'm aware I just changed the release date via a youtube video description. I'm slick.)

OH MY LORDY.. I can' t believe how much time has passed since my last blog. I can only hope that as I am in writing another blog to you all I have been sufficiently forgiven. So much has happened since the last one, most notably my new year's eve show in London (a video blog will address this soon I promise ;) - that I don't really know where to start.

The most notable thing is, I blogged and told the whole world I'd finished recording - and then more songs started coming in. Yikes. How does that happen? Most notably there were more songs with Phil Thornally and Mads Hauge (they've just had 3 number ones with Pixie Lott) and then I put things on hold to prepare for the New Year's Eve show.

MAKING THE ALBUM VOLUME 9.

Sydney Australia – 11.39 am Tuesday September 29, 2009

I’m in a famous Australian recording studio listening to the refrains of ‘G’ as studio engineer Mike sorts through the hundreds of takes of guitars that we recorded last week. In the other room, Aaron is setting up microphones to record a brass section to be placed on the song ‘W’. Yesterday we recorded a 20 piece orchestra on 3 songs ‘H’ ‘S M’ and ‘G’. It was possibly the most stressful day in the entire recording process!
But back to that later.

I just got back from seeing ‘The Time Traveler’s Wife’ at the cinema. Comparisons to my own interest in time travel aside, it resonated deeply in me the importance of living in the moment. For those who haven’t seen it I won’t spoil it for you – but what I will say is that it reminded me of a subject matter that I’m exploring on my new album : for want of a better phrase ‘the stuff that really matters’.

My new record is about love.

More specifically it’s about the stuff within love. The bits before, between, after, at the feet of, in the service of, in awe of, in resentment of, in the way of, at the risk of, in exchange for, in receipt of, because of. Love.
