The story of Be Still
This song was written by Isaac Slade. It
was written in 2011 after his little brother (Micah, 21 years old that year)
phoned him at 4 A.M. saying him he felt helpless. Isaac talked to him for a
while, and then both went to sleep. At the next morning, while having
breakfast, he caught his guitar and started composing a song. As he says: “it
wasn’t like writing, the lyrics just came. It never comes that easy, just maybe
with the song Happiness”. Then he went to the studio and recorded the song. Even
he didn’t mean to have it on the record; he just wanted to record it to his
brother. Well, finally they put it on the
record, but the original one; as Joe said: “don’t change it, it’s perfect”.
