Artist picture
Sold a song to Disney at 12, masterminded a family band in my teens, wrote theater/cabaret in NYC in my youth, quit songwriting for a spell, now I’m back!
I love writing songs that capture strong feelings I’ve had about a time, person or place, and that wrap you in those feelings with a sumptuous arrangement and much to surprise the ear. I’m drawn to seductive rhythms and sophisticated chords, and themes of longing, carnality and joy. I want my listeners to be astonished!

Story behind the song
This song is dedicated to a special person and to all who have cared about me, supported me, believed in me and championed my ability. I love one and I love all. I also love that a producer in Ecuador, Julian Telias, sought me out and chose this song as one he wanted to produce, and I think he did a great job!
Lyrics
Time was I was so small time Love was not for all time It was just a fast time, A pastime And every minute Had too many seconds in it And evry no-count love affair I swore would be the last time until You threw your spotlight On my little piece of shade Lifted me so far above The humdrum life Id made Im an overnight sensation In a ticker tape parade Cause loving you, baby is the BIG TIME Yes love Im at the summit Never more to plummet Ever more transcendent Resplendent Youve made me stellar A twenty-room penthouse dweller The story of my life is now A runaway best seller because You took a drab revue That closed in summer stock Tossed out every tired number Worked around the clock Now Im starring in a Broadway smash With lines around the block Cause loving you, baby is the BIG TIME And I hope they dont get mad at me When I dont thank the academy I can only say whats true I owe it all to you To you And in truth there are No paparazzi Camped outside the door No interviews, no curtain calls No throngs demanding more All you did was give me everything My life's worth living for And loving you, baby, is the BIG TIME
