Story Behind the Song
I wrote the words to "FALLIN' IN LOVE (WITH YOU)" in one sitting, 'leading' the original guitar player with the melody, laying this song down in one take. I dubbed some backup vocals in the original and the song was born. Kept it in the 'library' for about 8 years and then revived it with the wonderful instrumentation of 'Scott Kern', who totally understood and interpreted this song beautifully and transposed into what I have posted here. I will be adding some backup vocal harmonies to this version as in the original to finalize the song. It's a strong song as it stands, but I think the harmonies would be a nice finishing touch. The story behind "FALLIN' IN LOVE (WITH YOU)" is about underlying instant electricity that flows between two people that only those two people can know even though nothing is said. Upon each meeting between the two, it gets more and more difficult to not progress further into a relationship. There may be another love interest in the picture 'preventing' the relationship from ever coming full circle. The question is finally asked '...does your heart long for someone else?...', by one of the parties. The same party also finally tells the other how they are feeling. The 'listener' is given the chance to resolve this scenerio by their own experience. This allows this song to have two outcomes depending on the listener's experience, thus making it 'interactive'.
