Wish You Were Here

Saturday, December 20, 2008

Florida. A Christmas present from my parents. A wireless mic. Kids in the background. Sunny is taking pictures.

I guess this is how it looks from the back seat. Filming the new video. The music bed track: Tammy pre-recorded. Thinking ahead.

How are we going to do an Instant Video during our vacation? Yeah. Do “The Sea Song” of course!

The music plays through the speakers of the rented Chevy Cobalt while she sings seven takes into the wireless microphone.

Doing a U-wee after each take. Losing the light. Until that breakthrough moment. And touch that water. This is the Real Deal.

Running. To etch something in the sand…

My Waves
by Tammy Lin Foreman

I'll go
real far
in my motor
car
I'll go fast
try not to crash

I will
drive you
all the
way to
the sea
will be
the key
to

unlock
my waves
and you'll
hear me
say
the strangest
words that
you've ever
heard

say you'll
drive
with me
to the sea
we'll be
so free
in the sea
