The inspiration behind this song was nostalgia - specifically, the bittersweet nostalgia of young love.

A small-town girl stays back home when her high school sweetheart leaves to pursue big-city dreams. He returns ten years later to their old hangout and stirs up feelings that never faded for either of them.

As I was writing it, my son started

The inspiration behind this song was nostalgia - specifically, the bittersweet nostalgia of young love.

A small-town girl stays back home when her high school sweetheart leaves to pursue big-city dreams. He returns ten years later to their old hangout and stirs up feelings that never faded for either of them.

As I was writing it, my son started his first relationship.

At night before bed he always confides in me his dreams and fears.

"What if she breaks up with me?" he asked.

For the first time, he had something precious to lose.

Young love rarely gets a fair chance.

Outside factors interfere.

After all, he’s only nine.

But that's the beauty when it ends - it never fully blossomed, so the nostalgic question of "what if?" remains.

With this song, I loved the idea of capturing the snapshot that occurs decades later when teenage sweethearts reunite.

The electricity of first love rekindled after so many years.

That never forgotten feeling of your first love.

A Symphony of Vulnerability, Resilience, and Rediscovery

In life, at some point, we find ourselves wondering… What do we want to do while we’re here?

For Vanessa Mitchell, this moment came when her beloved Dad was taken by the relentless beast of pancreatic cancer. In the midst of her grief, she rediscovered her love for songwriting, a passion she had set aside for 12 years after her debut album in 2010.

Vulnerability has a way of cracking us open, allowing our deepest emotions and truths to pour out.

For Vanessa, this meant words and melodies flowing effortlessly, as if guided by an unseen force. She realized that her hiatus from music was merely a pause in her lifelong journey of self-expression. Turning 40 while grieving the loss of one of the most important people in her life led Vanessa to reflect on how she wanted to experience fulfillment and live a wholehearted life.

As a woman juggling the responsibilities of running a company in the top 2% of female founders and raising three children with her teenage sweetheart, Vanessa discovered a profound truth: our inner passions remain constant throughout our lives. It takes courage to embrace vulnerability and let our true selves shine, but when we do, we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities and connection..

In 2023, Vanessa released an album paralleling the Five Stages of Grief®, a deeply moving collection of songs that resonated with listeners worldwide. By sharing her own story of love and loss, she created a powerful connection with her audience, reminding us that we are not alone in our grief.

With no loss of momentum, she is set to release six new songs in 2024, exploring the lighter themes of joy and fun, showcasing her versatility as an artist and her resilience in the face of adversity.

As an artist, Vanessa's perspective has undergone a significant shift in recent years. She has come to understand that she can create music on her own terms while leading a fulfilling family life. This medium of expression adds richness and depth to her character, serving as a reminder that our creativity and passions are essential parts of who we are, and that by nurturing them, we can live more authentic and meaningful lives.

Through loss, love, and the passage of time, Vanessa Mitchell's journey of artistic expression serves as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of vulnerability.

As she continues to inspire and connect with people through her music, Vanessa reminds us that it's never too late to reconnect with our passions, embrace our truth, and let our inner light shine. By doing so, we can create a life that is rich with purpose, connection, and meaning.
