It's taken literally years! I have had so many versions that have had different hooks or vibes and they just didn't feel right, then finally writing my 1st album, I sat down at my piano and the song just fell into place. The song is all about sharing whatever you have with the most special person in the world.”Galea started songwriting when he was 13 after winning a UK National Songwriting Contest with his track “I Am Not An Angel.” Following that win he started writing for artists such as Lao Ra (Jesus Made Me Bad), Thea Garrett (Frontline) & Gianluca Bezzina (Come Float Away) and more!  Around this time his track “Trendsetter” was synced on US TV. Galea has also toured the UK supporting the likes of McFly and Boyzlife, as well as performing on the main stage for London Pride, Birmingham Pride, Northern Pride, Norwich Pride, as well as the main stage on festivals like The Sundown Festival and more. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.
