“I Feel Such Pain” is a true story; it was an event in my life that I never want to experience again. It happened when a 3 year non-married/living together relationship with the love of my life ended abruptly. We had a BIG argument and I remember telling her, “If you don’t like it, why don’t you just leave!” She started throwing her things in a suitcase and I said, “What are you doing?” She said, “I’m leaving.” I said, “But I didn’t mean it.” Didn’t matter, she’d had all she could take and left. Later that night I woke up in our bed holding nothing but air. And I felt pain like never before. It took a few years before I recovered from this awful experience and a song emerged.

After writing “I Feel Such Pain” I played it for my long-time friend, Bad Daddy’s lead guitarist Bruce Marelich. Bruce flipped over it. He said, let’s get the band together and record it, like right now! We did just that and after the band learned the song, we had it down on tape in a couple takes. After a few overdubs, backing vocals, etc. it was complete and ready to mix and master.

The best part of all is that after “she” left we patched things up (I got down on my knees and begged her forgiveness) and we were married a few months later. We’ve been happily married ever since.
