Temptation
How “Temptation” came to be just proves when you put two empaths in a room, what can really ensue. Leading up to that session with Damon, I had been going back-and-forth in my mind about a certain individual. It was the classic “should I/shouldn’t I” dance. Both scenario outcomes had their own appeal, which made writing about the best option so that I could channel it and move on. Quite, albeit, cliche.
But alas! I finally knew what I felt like to write a song about someone haha. I could hear Taylor’s voice saying “welcome to my world!”
I go back to what I said about putting two empaths in a room and what can truly come out of it. As soon as I sat down, and we began listening to the track to try to catch some sort of direction conceptually, Damon said something like “I feel like the word ‘temptation’ on this one.” As a good Dream Team co-captain would, he just turned the key for the channeling flood gates to open.
I had a good friend of mine on FaceTime while I was writing the song, which she knew about the situation, so her energy and knowledge of the subject also added to the creative nonsense that was propelling the words to a very honest and poetic deliverable state.
“Temptation” is essentially the modern day version of the Phantom of the Opera dynamic. Do I follow the voice haunting me or do I follow the voice that will keep me feeling “safe”.
I felt some sort of weight lifted while writing and channeling this. Although sometimes throughout the performance of the song, I will tap back into the muscle memory of it. But, that only legitimizes the physical and emotional delivery of everything.

Had the pleasure of meeting the ever amusingly talented Bruce Vilanch today at our LA5 Rotary meeting today.
Oddly enough, when I mentioned my rendition of “Self Control” and its #1 spot on the dance charts, he told me he spent a lot of time with Laura Branigan, and how she also faced many fun times and challenging times. Very interesting. I’ll press onward then!
Such a friendly individual, with so much to opine and be vocal about, and he also has much to listen to on YouTube and Spotify later 😉
And, be sure to check out his latest book “It Seemed Like A Bad Idea At The Time”. Mine’s custom signed. Don’t be jelly, I like preserves better.

Happy Mothers Day from the Fulmers to you
Flew in, snuck in the house, and waited in the dark to surprise my mom for Mothers Day.
This was the best covert operation ever, and I feel more accomplished than Danny Ocean and more sleuth than the pink panther.
