I wanted to put into one song, what my hopes and aspirations were for the Evening. This song recieved a much needed boost in the arm when Cecil Bilbo (dear friend) responded to what it meant for him! Thank you Cecil! Info

IN YOUR HEAD YOU’RE UP, CROWDED WITH CLOUDS WATCHING THE RAIN AS IT STARTS POURING DOWN FROM THE SKY Lyrics	Fear Notes This song began when my 5 yr. old daughter Ariana said to me: "Dad, what are you afraid of"? After sweating a gallon and a half from my forehead (and, thankfully, before I could respond), she said: "You know, like monsters, or dragons or...". All I knew was I felt like I was off the hook for the night. Info

12.	The Rearview Mirror Of The Soul	Play	The Rearview Mirror Of The Soul THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR OF THE SOUL SUNLIT SUNSET NEVER FORGET THE WAY THAT YOU LOOKED FULL OF LIFE YET WATCH THE RIVER FLOW, ON BY 1ST TIME I SAW YOU TOOK MY BREATH AWAY EVERYTHING SLOWED DOWN EVERYTHING FADED AWAY DEEP INSIDE I KNEW, RIGHT AWAY CHORUS: EVERY HIGH NOTE I SING COMES FROM A DEEP PLACE IN ME EVERY JOY THAT I’VE KNOWN HAS BEEN A LITTLE BIT BROKEN I’VE LEARNED TO COUNT MY BLESSINGS AS I TRAVEL DOWN THE ROAD MEMORY; THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR OF THE SOUL KEEP YOUR EYES WHERE YOU’RE GOIN’ AND NOT WHERE YOU’VE BEEN THE PRESENT MOMENT IS ALREADY HAPPENING WATCH IT UNFOLD BEFORE YOUR EYES REPEAT CHORUS THE OLDER I GET WORDS THAT I SAID LOSE THERE MEANING ON A SUNSET EVENING WATCH THE RIVER FLOW, ON BY Lyrics	The Rearview Mirror Of The Soul Notes This song starts on the banks of the River of my childhood, when my Father saved my brother from drowning, and moves onto high school and after college years. "Keep your eyes where you're going; and not where you've been" is a direct quote from my Father when he was (trying) to teach me how to drive. The Chorus attempts to expose the relationship between heart-ache and joy...different sides of the same coin. The last verse is really about admitting that, although I write words and music for a living, none of my "art" compares with the inestimable beauty of even one moment of sunrise or sunset. But that's ok...I'm grateful. Info

The latest from prolific writer David Howie. A record of rockin' Americana, folksy, melodic tunes.

Become Golden is a rich, melody-laden record with roots in both the folk tradition and the rock/pop vein. The subject matter covers a wide spectrum of feelings. From the horn-drenched opener "Contact" , to the old timey blues of "Everybody everywhere", to the organ induced vibe of "Another Sad Song", there's truly something for everyone. Written during the last year and a half of Davids' fathers life (James Howie) it is a looking back kind of record... and a looking around and forward type of record. It's a journey....hop on board!

This is a Christian record in lyrical focus. It's a driving record of upbeat, rockin' songs that seem to work well together. We really tried to trim the fat on this record and be real focussed on a certain sound.
