Firefly - Lyrics with the Music.
This is one of my favourite soundscapes on my album Just in Time. It’s called Firefly and it was one of those songs where it happened very smoothly and then I had a chance to sit back and listen to it. To my surprise it captured the feeling and setting I wanted exactly.
I used to live on a beautiful property in Maleny on the sunshine coast. It was a 35 acre piece of land with a path down into the forest eventually coming to a creek. As the light was fading and we were coming back up the path there were small groups of fireflies that used to follow us home silently. There was a quiet that I felt inside as they tracked us throught the forest that I will never forget. The sample in this song is recorded in there on a little mini disc recorder.
