D. Watts is a singer from Birmingham, Alabama. After spending 5 years of fronting cover bands, she started writing her own music. Collaborating with Birmingham’s Ben Trexel, they co-wrote her first album, My Own Way, released in July 2005. The music can best be described as soulful, modern rock with depth. D’s deep, melodic voice brings a soothing quality to alternative and adult rock sounds and her live performance is that of pure energy. In 2006, D- and Trexel began a second album in which D- changes the direction of the music from contemporary rock to Christian alternative rock. She describes the music as a personal journey that has led her back to seeking God first in her life and has reestablished a close relationship with Him. She has a desire to reach young people through her music and to be an inspiring role model. D- desires to encourage and motivate people to pursue their dreams and to live life to its fullest by making good choices. Her new album, Brand New Start, will be available in December 2006.

Story behind the song
This song is the moment I surrendered my life to Christ. Written on March 12, 2006 after a surreal and totally real moment in church. These lyrics flew out so quickly I knew it was a good one. Five days later, Ben had me listen to a new track he had written that week and I said, " How awesome would it be if it matched the lyrics I wrote last Sunday?" Well, wouldn't you know that they fit....perfectly!! That's how God works.....perfectly! And the best news yet, is that when we are shattered and broken He will take the pieces and put us back together in a totally transformed way. That's exactly what's happened to me and it can happen for each of us.
Lyrics
You found things to get you through, It was meaningless, something to do. What you did was never enough, For life sometimes is just too tough. You don't know which way to turn, But something inside you greatly yearns. What's gonna happen to you today, It's time to find a different way. Your life is shattered, like broken glass. And it's slipping away, all too fast.... When you're broken and you're torn apart, He will pick up the pieces and give you a brand new start. For all you've lost, he will give you more He's the One you've been looking for. For all the times you cried to sleep And everything you couldn't keep For those you've lost along the way He'll make it better for you today. Take the water and make it wine, Take the worst and make it fine. Just reach out, reach out your hand The answer's so easy to understand. Your life is shattered...like broken glass And it's slipping away all too fast. When you're broken and you fall apart. He will pick up the pieces...give you a brand new start. Don't feel lost He will light the way If you leave He will make you stay You're not alone He's always here He's by your side there's no need to fear No need to cry, He will dry your eyes You can trust for He tells no lies For all you've lost, He will give you more He's the one you've been looking for. He's the one you've been looking for. He's the one, He's the one, He's the one you've been looking for.
