Story Behind The Song
OK, I'm no piano player, but I think I hide that well in this song (professional pianists may disagree). This was a fun song to write. I actually based it on a song my hard rock band, Language of the Mad, had written but never recorded. I kept the name since it didn't have a mind of its own yet. The bass line is exactly what I had written for the original song, except done on a synthesizer. We called that song Pompeii because our keyboard player used a patch which we thought had a feel that someone in the room said reminded him of Pompeii. Make sense? No.
I tried to make the song more interesting by playing with stereo panning of the strings in the chorus, but they just go back and forth. Nothing revolutionary there. What I found cool was that my piano playing on the chorus part goes in and out of 16th notes and 8th notes. I could never have written it that way - it just happened.
