Tomorrow Is Today

about

Certainly the deepest song I chose for this record, and I probably wouldn't have heard it without shuffling through his catalogue one morning. It came on while I was driving to the train and I kept thinking about it, kept listening to it on my commute to school. I had read that his debut album 'Cold Spring Harbour' was mastered at the wrong speed, so a little over a decade after its initial release, it was re-mastered and edited a ton for a second try. The original version of this song has a bunch of extra instrumentation, but the '83 remaster is just Joel and the piano, and it's an intimate song that revolves around experiencing time and memories. The song is mostly built around a scale, though is flourished with some extra notes to make it sound unique. The blues-inspired bridge was something that I did not want to try and copy Joel's vocals on; he does this interesting southern approach that I just didn't have to finesse to do right. I kept it straight with the rest of the way I sang the track and I think this came together very nicely. I also know instantly that it would be the record closer, and I was surprised to see that it wasn't used in that same way on 'Cold Spring Harbour.' I really put my all into the final verse, and did so to wrap up the project in the most honest way I could.
