The completion of this song was inspired by the passing of my dear friend Al Limberg. Sometimes words can't express what your soul is urging you to get out. I had been toying around with bits and pieces of a song for a while and kept running into a wall, getting stuck; but soon after Al left us, I found some similar patterns that lent themselves to complete what I was trying to say. I didn't plan it this way, but that's the way it worked out. Songs sometimes depend upon the Muse and I believe that Al sent one in direction. The night Al died, the sky lit up in a display of Aurora Borealis that we seldom witness in our neck of the planet. In keeping with a Snowbound Sound theme, I'm calling this song Northern Lights and I will embrace Al's spirit every time I play it.
