Y la Tormenta de Invierno continúa... Estamos muy orgullosos de felicitar a Tarja y a Universal Music por el discode Oro alcanzado en Hungría y por su primer disco de Oro en toda su carreraen República Checa.
I have been spending a couple of weeks writing new songs with my friends here in Antigua, in the beautiful island surroundings.The result is telling of the great and inspiring atmosphere we have had. I mean, the songs are REALLY amazing. I feel that the process of writing songs this time is much easier than it was for My Winter Storm. Might be that the songwriters already know me and there is not such a pressure on us than we had with a debut album.Luckily the time is also on our side since we have still quite some time to come up with more killer songs.I also found the courage to come up with my own songs and ideas, which is making me very, very happy. Last time, during MWS process, I was telling you the name of the songs and some parts of their lyrics. It was very nice and motivating to read your comments and wild guesses about the meaning of the songs.So, this time I will do it again. Here goes the first title:“The Crying Moon†This new song we did with Michelle and Kiko and we borrowed a wonderful riff from Mr. Doug Wimbish that I heard during the last tour and that I loved deeply. I am still searching for a title for the album, but little by little, all the pieces are falling into the right place and the idea is already turning in my head. The island of Antigua is again making me happy. I guess even more than on my last visit here, even though, this time the reason to come was only work. Still we have been able to enjoy the nature and the beauty of it. Few nights ago we went with Angela, Adrian and Torsten to Bird Island where we ate a great barbecue and slept overnight. Find few more photos with Michelle and Kiko and with Angela and Adrian. (....)And once again with Torsten adding some arrangements to the music.(...)I discovered one of the boats used in Pirates of the Caribbean movies, just walking distance to the place where we are staying. Don’t get confused with the new colours!(...)So that’s all for now. I’ll write to you soon! Bye.With Love,Tarja
