Every story has a beginning And there's no easy path to winning Energy mixed with a little rhythm Helps to spark the flow within Clear your mind and let the good vibes in Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Searching for illumination  Where elements bring good vibrations  Energy mixed with a little rhythm Helps to spark the flow within Clear your mind and let the good vibes in Oh yeah Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Oh oh oh oh oh-oh-oh Oh oh oh oh Energy mixed with a little rhythm, yeah Helps to spark the flow within Clear your mind and let the good vibes in Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Call me crazy, look around Now you're up above the clouds See how far you're off the ground Like a Sunflower Ooh, like a Sunflower Woah, like a Sunflower

about

Songs can be great gifts. In my experience, whether it is you that create something inspired by a loved one or whether you are the recipient of a song that has been created by someone about or for you, these can be some of the most heart-warming and memorable moments in life.

And so it is with Sunflower - our friends Craig and (Dr) Reetu Marker met up with us to celebrate Christmas last December and as part of our gift exchange they gave my wife and I a card. In that card was a beautiful, thoughtful haiku and the url to a file hosted on Google Docs. Upon following the link we were presented with an audio file titled 'Inspiration'. We clicked it and it started to play - some lovely, rich acoustic guitar chords and then with Craig's lilting tones that first line "Every story has a beginning...".

It actually took me a moment to figure out what was going on here, but sure enough just a few seconds later I realized - it was their entirely new take on Sunflower played with feeling and in a way that Jason and I hadn't never even considered. Of course, it was an emotional moment and we had a wonderful evening hanging out and celebrating friendship, family and love (in a Christmassy way).

But it was that evening that a seed was planted - what if we reached out to some of our collaborators and ask if they'd like to do their own versions of the song for us to release as a Maxi-Single. And what a delight it's been over the past few months as Jeffrey (Blckatom) and Chrissi worked on their interpretations and I came up with a new (I grew up in the) 80s vibe to for good measure.

So, here it is, inspired by that Christmas gift from the Markers, the Sunflower Maxi-Single.

We hope you enjoy it and, perhaps, inspiring. :)
