Now we just feel…WKND SPIN: CLAIRE GEORGE – “Alone, Together” [single x two]

Claire George – Alone, Together is available @ Bandcamp.

Infatuating blindness can set in motion an entire predictable relationship cycle. And sadly, reality/histories say, more often than not, wild abandon ends in the realization of loneliness. Los Angeles songwriter Claire George’s recent single “Alone, Together” is a journey through the beauty of head over heels to the ultimate demise of connection.

Winter made you crazy so you jumped into the freezing lake
And the moonlight made me cry as it fell softly on your shoulder-blade

I wish I could go back
Wash away the mistakes
We’re better when we sleep
But in the morning our dreams, they fade

We used to want to be alone together
Alone together
Now we just feel alone together

The track has two distinct versions. The first, written by Claire George and Ceci Gomez and produced by George, is a haunting soul-wrenching piano ballad. While the second, “Alone, Together (Forever)”, co-produced/written by George and Josh Burgess, takes the song into a familiar retro pop/disco thumper but this time, the phrasing finds new direction…

Each record has its own definition and undeniable power, take them both for a spin and add one, or both, to your weekend playlist…we have, at the GTC WKND SPIN.
