    @03:06 Danny Vera is not a native English speaker, he's 100% Dutch, but he is 1000% serious about the music he makes. That's what you hear.
    @09:32 This song was written and composed by Danny Vera.
    And what's more: There were no cuts or any other fiddling; Just one acoustic take!

    I saw him perform this song live on Pink Pop in June. And while he was not my reason to be there (Nightwish, Floor Jansen and Metallica were) his performance was a nice bonus. There is a documentary of the reunion of the first class of the Rock Academy, he was in that class together with Floor Jansen, she's the Dutch singer of Nightwish. It followed the careers of all the people from that year.

    It is just for a couple of weeks that I realized the building up of this song ís like a roller coaster ride. Slowly, quite soft and calm, up to the top and then the drop down, the loops, the speed... and the cooling down at the end. Feels the same as when you are in that deep grieve that you start crying, first may be soft in yourself, no breath, and then the outburst, just let it go, and the cooling down, admit, surrender, relieve. Such a lovely song.

    Thank you for the nice comment. In the Netherlands we have good country singers. It has been part of our culture here for decades, inspired by the music from America. Two of our biggest stars are Douwe Bob. He is a singer songwriter and a rabel boy. Ilse de Lange is our country queen. A star in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium. Albums made in Nechville with well-known producers. In the link you can see a beautiful live performance together in a women's prison in America. czcams.com/video/nw28JoB-rCU/video.html
