  
 "The Story of the Mermaid", 
 by Atlantic / Neophyte, Aim Higher and Traxweekly.
 
 Dedicated to Alana, aka Serendipity.
  
  I wrote this song amidst depression that arose from a relationship I
 had.  My intention was to musically chronicle it - to have the feel and
 mood of the song reflect the way things were between us.  As a result,
 it was written over a period of about 3 months, with 2 months of 
 polishing.  I consider it about my most successful piece to date, as 
 when it was played to the person I wrote it about, she cried, perhaps
 then first understanding how her had actions affected me.
  
  I poured a lot of my soul into this tune as I wrote it, and I hope that
 listening to it is an equally enriching experience.

 Take care,
 B.A.Freeman, Aka Atlantic.
