WOW! this is not your ordinary charity site… The images of the local people in need are not depressed skeletals with flies all over their faces. After browsing around, I was swallowed up in the beauty of the images and videos, showing success stories of communities who have benefitted from the fresh water brought in by the charity… I just remember thinking. WHY did you write the song? I wrote Water because one day I was browsing on the interwebs, and happened to stumble upon this beautifully stunning website called charity:water. If you’ve never heard of the site, it’s is a non-profit charity that helps to bring clean drinking water to communities in developing countries in need, across the globe. We humans need water, and most of us love it - whether you’re a surfer, cottage-owner-by-the-lake, swimmer, coffee drinker, or just plain ol’ regular human….We need water on this earth to survive, and since we are starting to feel the scary effects of global warming and experiencing water shortages around the world, I wanted to remind my epic listeners out there to be grateful for the abundance of water that most of us have at home to drink, bathe and live healthfully.įirst things first: I am going to tell you the story behind the inspiration of my song in a little Q&A format, and THEN I’m going to tell you the story behind the lyric video (see below) I made in the desert on my House Concert Tour in 2017. That’s why I decided to write an entire song about it. Just as much as our deep breathing, heart pumping organs, water is a necessity for everything we do. I hope EVERYONE in this room said “I” because our bodies are almost entirely made up of that stuff.
