Performer/Songwriter
Hey everybody! I'm Jerry Flattum, Performer/Songwriter. The recordings you are listening to are in Pre-Production, a fancier way of saying "demo." I'm currently working on getting up the financing to re-record and master several recordings in preparation for commercial release. Nothing drives me nuts more than knowing how these tunes will sound with new arrangements and a top notch mix/master. There's alot of color missing from the current recordings, but most of all guitar and backup vocals. Live drums and new keyboard samples will really bring the arrangement to life too. Two of the songs feature "hired guns" (session players). Tim Thompson did the guitar and mix on "My Little Girl," a Country/Rock ballad. Thompson is a finger style champion and when he let's loose on uptempo rockers he rivals the best pickers I've ever heard. Stephen Sea knocked out his own arrangement of "Best Place Around" and topped it off with some amazing guitar work. Virtual instruments and sampling technology will be heavily used in the new recordings. Once the recordings are finished, with sufficient financing and backing, I'm planning a global tour with a stage show that includes dancers, acting, stage design, lighting and costuming.

Story behind the song
Everyone wants to be independent. Sadly, we think it's a weakness to need each other, especially when we need help. The thing is, I realized that if I don't allow myself to be vulnerable and admit when I need help, how will I be open to someone who might need me to help them? The recording is in pre-production, being re-arranged and mastered in preparation for commercial release.
Lyrics
I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU, to help see this thing through. I got into some trouble, and I need you real bad. Don't desert me, 'cause I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU, to tell me the truth. When I upset the balance, you're the one to set it straight. I'm just a child, and I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. I think I can hold on alittle longer, if I know you're there. Half my problems are gone, when you say you care. Oh, it's not easy, to admit I'm weak, admit I'm wrong, and I'm on a losin' streak. Ignore me for too long, and I'll guarantee I'll go insane... Don't let go...I've got to know... You'll stay right here and ease my pain. I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU, gotta have someone to talk to. I think I'm goin' crazy, and you're the only one I have. I hope you don't mind, I hope I'm not a burden, and could you please be kind, 'cause I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. Yeah, I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. Oh, I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. I'M DEPENDIN' ON YOU. Copyright 2010 by Jerry Flattum
