Tomorrow is my mother's birthday, and next week is her mother's 90th birthday. Pretty awesome if you ask me. I have been wanting to write a song for my mom for quite some time, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. But I knew that for my grandmother's 90th birthday I definitely wanted to write something. Fast forward to last night. I went to see Hugh Jackman's big "BACK ON BROADWAY" show at the Broadhurst theatre on 44th st, and it was one of the most inspiring and entertaining nights of my life. The most inspiring part was the time that Hugh played tribute to Peter Allen, and also to his homeland of Australia. It was quite inspiring. He sang a song that Allen wrote about his grandfather, and his father, and then himself and it was mind blowing. I decided last night that I would wake up this morning and write one of those for my mother and her mother, and me.

INSPIRATION:
Well, the inspiration is pretty self explanatory. The song is about my grandma Conrada, and my mom, and her sisters, and my brothers and the whole family tree that leads to me. It's kind of egotistical I guess, writing a song for someone else that ends up being about you, but it's also a big THANK YOU, to show I appreciate everyone giving of themselves to get me where I am in life today. So Thank you MOM, and DAD, and ROSIE, and GRANDMA, and everyone else!!! I love you!!!! and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!
