This is a new version of a song I originally wrote and recorded back in 1992, for the first girl I was ever in love with. The lyrics basically consisted of all the things that I would do for her, "if I could". And if you're wondering how that turned out, I just wrote a sequel to this song, and it's called "I Could Not" lol. Anyway, I recorded the original 1992 song on a cheap keyboard with presets, and instead of trying to update it, I made a conscious decision to try to make it sound as much like the original as I could.
Because I like making bad decisions, I'll link to the orignal 1992 recording below (just, you know, be kind lol). It's got some pretty naive, sappy lyrics, but what do you want... I was young and in love for the first time. I couldn't find the right sounds or rhythm for the song on any of the keyboards I owned at the time, so I snuck a small tape recorder into a department store and recorded the bulk of the backing track on a floor model keyboard lol. Whatever gets the job done, right?
