about

“2 Months” is an introspective song about knowing that your time in life is finite. I was inspired to finish it quickly, after talking to a gentleman who wanted to hire our cover band for his 90th birthday party. I had called him in December 2020, to see if he still wanted to have us at his party in February. With Covid-19 continuing to run rampant, it was decided that it would not be smart to have us play at a party for him. However, it was also during that phone call, that he informed me he had lung cancer, and he wasn’t sure if he was going to make it to his birthday. That devastating news made me wonder what it would be like to receive that kind of diagnosis. “2 Months” is my philosophical thoughts on the subject.

After speaking to my new older friend several times since that first call in December, he is still in good spirts and grateful to have lived what he considers a long and happy life. And though there will be no live band to help him celebrate his milestone, it is my hope that he will appreciate this tribute song in his honor, being released as a surprise on his birthday, 2/3/2021.

lyrics

If you found out you had two months, would you really want to know?
And if you had your choice of choosing, would you choose which way to go?
Is it better to not know than, is it better to be surprised?
Is it better to go silent, while I look into your eyes?

If you found out you had two months, would you cry 'till you were dry?
Would you live each day to the fullest, or would you scream out asking why?
Is it fair to be the first one picked, just once you'd like to be last.
From the crowd of millions out there, and yet it seems your die's been cast.

If you found out you had two months, would you be bitter to the end?
Would you write down all the thoughts you had, for each and every friend?
Would you spend each day with family, or would you set off down the road?
Would you count off hours day and night, would you thank the ones you owed?

So you found out you have two months, as you look up to the sky
Tell me how you wanna be remembered, and tell me how you gonna say goodbye.
Yeah you found out you have two months, and you’ll be passing-by.
Tell me how you’re gonna be remembered, and tell me how you gonna say goodbye.

2 months… passing-by… remember… to say goodbye.

Audio has been a constant in my life. From listening to my favorite bands as a kid to recording my own music to this day, music has been there for me. In 2012, I had an opportunity to branch out from music background to get involved with the sound of the film world. Since then, I have divided my time between the two domains. ... more
