—Feel It All
Produced by Mark Williams, Music and Lyrics by Dana Wells
I wrote this song in August 2010 during the Johnny Mercer Songwriters Program at Northwestern University. I spent a week with fourteen fellow songwriters and three songwriting mentors, with whom I laughed, shared stories, and jammed. These are some of the most talented people I have ever met, and they each challenged me in different ways.
Lari White, a singer/songwriter/producer from Nashville and one of the mentors, incited each of us to write what scared us. I believe the quote she used was along the lines of:
“A good writer writes what he knows. A great writer writes what he doesn’t want anyone else to know. A really great writer writes what he doesn’t want to know about himself.”
This, for me, at this moment in my life, is that song. I’m happy that I have the chance to share it.
