For Mohamed Haddad & Maysam Al Nasser.
On the occasion of their 2nd anniversary (April 2nd, 2011).
In these dark days where future is gloomy, I hang on to my certainties.
Mohammed and Maysam as a married couple, as lovebirds and mostly as my best friends brought the colors back to my life once when it was completely dark. They became a certainty for me…
This song was actually a demo that took me about 2 hours to write and record back in the winter of 2009, inspired by the European city that represents the centre of Mohammed and Maysam’s love story… “Edinburgh”. And I struggled for months to find a way to finish it and include it in an album that would fit it. But now I decided to abandon it and release it as it was 2 years ago, with all the vibes that it originally contained, with all the recording noise and the raw guitar, just to be reminded of the goodness in life through the vibes of Mohammed and Maysam.
This song is a tribute for their love story and a tribute for a certainty of my own.
Enjoy,
Ala
