Live at the Idiot Box 💿 [Out Now!]

I wrote this tune at a point in time I felt like everything was meaningless. Not in a dramatic kind of way but more in a realistic sense. My career was doing great, I was healthy, no money issues, I had a sweet girlfriend - But I couldn’t find any sense of meaning in anything I was doing, everything felt like a waste of time. I kept thinking how short our life is compared to how vast and old the universe is, how all of the things that we believe build our identity as a self can disappear as fast as they came, how all of our feelings of hate and love, the grudges we hold, our relationships, with family and friends, just pale in comparison to how big the universe is.
I kept digging deeper in my mind and just got sucked more and more into this loop of trying to understand what has more meaning, and what has less meaning. During my research I came across this book called ‘Pale Blue Dot’ which was written by astronomer and planetary scientist Carl Sagan, inspired by an image of Earth taken from space by the Voyager 1 spacecraft.
The story was that NASA sent out the Voyager 1 in the 70s to research space, it wondered around our solar system for many years, and almost 20 years later just as it was moving too deep into space and we lose contact, Carl convinced NASA to turn it around just to take one final picture of Earth from the furthest point in the universe even until today - 6.4 billion kilometers away.
There is a famous excerpt of the book that I read, which made me so humbled by the vastness of the universe. It inspired me to compose this tune, and the whole album later.
