About ten years ago, I performed (with Matt) a song I wrote for my new wife. “Kelly’s Song”, it was called – and it became generally recognized as one of the best tunes I had ever written.
So today, I present its answer: MASTERPIECE
Although I have referenced “Kelly’s Song” in a number of ballads, this is the first one I ever wrote as a specific answer to the original. I figured a retrospective of the goals set out in the original song, and a “State of the Union” was in order for the 10 year anniversary.. and already, those who have heard it seem to like it, so I hope you like it just as much.
Oh, and here’s the original Kelly’s Song as a reference. Please note the production on the older song is 7 years old, aso its not as hot.. and also that I do owe Matt for some of the piano ideas.
