Clubcast 053. Story Behind the Songs “Darkest of Days,” “Sing For Me,” & “The Decay”

Miraculously, one of the shortest “story behind the song” episodes yet covers not one, not two, but THREE of my Friends Club singles: the worship song “Darkest of Days,” the upbeat alternative song “Sing For Me,” and the deeply conceptual and proggy “The Decay.” I discuss the writing process, the music, and the lyrics for each of these songs, which can be heard at this Soundcloud link, meanwhile a considerably more in-depth explanation of the inspiration and meaning behind “Sing For Me” can be heard on the most recent episode of the Renew the Arts Podcast.
