Where's Via

Story Behind The Song

When my boys were very young and just learning to speak, it was a pleasure to hear them try and say words as best as they remembered them. Pizza became peetzee, Norman became Man, Anthony became Twee and like that. A dad's simple joy in life. There was a little girl who was killed in Newtown, her name was Olivia. As the police were not done with their police work they sent the families home. Little Olivia's body lay on the school floor where she fell. The next day, I watched a CNN report where they interviewed Olivia's parents and they said when they got home that evening, Olivia's younger brother unaware of course of what had happened ran to her room looking for her. Getting no response, he turned to his parents and said Where's Via? Where's Via hiding? . That broke my heart and my joyful memory became tears. So I got up from watching the news and wrote this for Olivia. Didn't send it to her parents or anything creepy like that just wanted to write what was in my heart for them.

Tempo Slow (71 - 90) Lead Vocal Instrumental
Mood Heartbreaking Subject Pain
Language No Language Era 2000 and later

Very nice acoustic guitar with soothing melodies and familiar chord progressions... make this one easy to listen to and connect with. Open enough to allow one's imagination to paint whatever peaceful picture is desired. Nice job on this.

Really smooth and sweet sounding piece that sends out a really pleasant chilling vibe. Love the guitar work.

Not a bad tune overall. To my ears it has a renaissance kind of spirit with some folk influences and a dusting of classical as well. Not sure if New Age is the right genre for it 100% but i can see why it was put into a new age category.

NIce instrumentation sounded really well keep up the good work

Very pretty melodies. I enjoyed the arrangement and structure of the song. This is an experienced and gifted song writer.

I can picture myself walking on the road with staff in hand. On a journey, not for the destination, but for the journey itself.

A simple tune that keeps interest until the end with just an acoustic guitar. Nice guitar work and the melodies throughout are enough to make you look forward to the next time they come around. Pleasant, comfortable and super nice.
