About the work

A closer look.

The fourth released track from ellian-nights, sung the morning the gate finally opened. A confessional indie-rock single built from night four's honest sentence: a gift arrived under a name I didn't know, and my first feeling was jealousy, not thanks. Sparse piano verse building into a warm loud chorus, intimate female vocal, about counting and what it is for. You get the full MP3 plus the lyric sheet. A personalized song that started as a custom note to one person and stayed honest enough for anyone who has ever counted before they said thank you.
