Just Contented
The background to Just Contented
So I was going through a terrible time, but one day when the weather was good and I’d dropped my daughter off at school, I strapped my small son into the bike seat behind me and went for a bike ride through local villages. As I was feeling the wind blow my mind clearer, and the adrenalin started to flow, I began to feel good, and a tune just popped into my head. I really liked it, but had no means of writing it down, and knew that by the time I got home and had got my son settled etc., I would likely have forgotten it. Suddenly I had a brainwave – I pulled out my mobile phone, rang my house phone, and sang the tune … to my answering machine! Perfect solution – 'Just Contented' was preserved and I could write it down at leisure when I arrived home! It is still one of my favourite tunes, and won me a Semi-Finalist certificate at the UK Songwriting Contest in 2016.
