Jeremy Enigk - Make Believe


Artist: Jeremy Enigk
Song: Make Believe
Album: OK Bear
Year: 2009


"I'm in a crazy state of mind, another solitary space, you take a picture there hoping they won't stop to look inside..."


"There is more about you than all the cameras see, there is more..."


*A COMMENT: I'm very proud of this song, the reason is it has been the one song that has taken me the longest to find... Nearly 7 hours! You might wonder why 7 hours, here's the story... It was Sunday, just about to take a bus back home and I was  just a minute away from getting off the car that took me to the bus station and this song was on the radio and I liked it right away, but I just had the chance to retain the 'there is more about you than all the camera see' part and the word 'marketplace' I'm not sure about this, but I think that Jeremy Enigk (obviously at that time I had no idea who the hell he was) was at that radio program at that moment from what I heard before getting off the car...

When I arrived home, one of the first things I did was looking for the song, but the CD had been just released, I had very few words I could use and literally no site had the lyrics, or perhaps my query was pretty shitty or just a combination... Literally I spent the whole afternoon looking for it, going through several, and by several I mean a lot, Google result pages... I was beginning to become frustrated, then I recalled the radio station name and went to their website with the hopes they had the names of the song they broadcast at a specific time, after all I knew the day and the time I had heard it... I found a document with the songs and I went looking for them one by one until I got it... Then, I added this CD to my 'CD's to buy' list and I thought that if it had taken me that long to find the song, the chances of me finding the CD were going to be really really small and what was my surprise when I found it at a Best Buy in New York, the only copy in the rack, I smiled big time...








And remember... If you liked it, buy it...
