	Story Behind the Song MILO SAYS: "Space Needle has to be Kim's most affecting song, but in my head, I kept hearing it in a bigger production. I asked Kim if I could do something with it, and she sent me a MiniDisc with her original vocal on it. After she heard the version I produced, she decided to re-record her vocal to better suit the fuller setting. Kim not only sings like an angel, but also comes way up there in my Top 10 Human Beings List." KIM SAYS: "When Milo sent me the first version of this with the original vocal, the music was so beautiful that it moved me to tears. While I recorded the new vocal, it moved me to tears. When I heard the final version with the new vocal, it moved me to tears. Milo's gonna make me run out of tears. Thank you Milo." I got the inspiration for this song when I took a trip to the Pacific Northwest in 1996. I spent three days puttering around Seattle and Vancouver by myself. It was incredible. There were no compromises. I don't mean that in an Extreme Sports kind of way--but in a "I'm in charge of my life and don't have to do what anyone else wants to do" kind of way. Lyrics It was a dog's eye view Second row, and wondering where he'd gone to I still remember a wallflower saying Something 'bout a god and lonely girls And I sat in the Seattle sun Watched the boats roll into harbor There were no more reservations With the needle covered over in the deep Sound water I rode the train to the fairground Had to walk another mile I took the pictures of a lifetime On a promise and a prayer Yesterday I walked to Red Square From the Neptune through the district And I found my independence When I talked to a lady who was wiser than her years I said, "Love is nothing for you to decide Love is natural If you've gotta think about it for a while You're heart is cynical" I'm dreaming of Seattle I can hear the boats upon the Sound In the center of the city, they found An empty red metal heart © Kim Novak, 1997.
