Now Voyager ( Studio Track 2004 )

What can I say about this song...It's the first "Really Good" thing I had ever written ( 1980 / Musically anyway ). I remember all the circumstances to writing it, and all I can say now, is it was something of a "Celebration" when writing it...it came quick & under very Happy Circumstances. I also remember the Older guys "Men" at the Music stores "Shocked" and not all too believing that I had wrote the song only at age 15...Some great moments really, even clouded by my youthful arrogance of "OF COURSE it's good...I'm gonna be the next Beatles" !!!

Many years later I wondered "Why" I didn't want to perform it live...after resurrecting many an old song, I wondered "Why I didn't want to do my major accomplishment". It was the words...they just weren't that good...and somewhere deep inside I knew it. So in 1997, somewhat of a "Heavy time" in my life, I just started spewing out these lyrics that reflected what was going on in my life at the time...and like the original song, the new version was written within minutes... I'm Very proud of this song...I LOVE THIS SONG...I Lived this song
I hope you like it too
Sincerely
Michael Butler 6/25/11

PS I remember "Babe" By Styx being the main influence on writing the original Version !!!
