This episode is about knowing when not to act.
"Waiting For You" was written years before it was finished. At the time, something felt off—but not in a way I could fully explain. So I didn't release it.
Years later, I revisited the song with fresh perspective—and with input from Donovan. A few subtle changes shifted the tone completely.
In this episode, I break down:
• How timing affects creative outcomes
• Why some ideas need distance before they work
• The role of external perspective in refining a piece
• How small changes can transform the whole
The song is just the example.
The real topic is how to recognize when something isn't ready—and what happens when you give it time.
Because not every problem should be solved immediately—
sometimes the solution only becomes clear later.
SHOW NOTES:
Waiting for You
by Daniel Isle Sky ©2009
When I first met you
When I first saw you
You told me you would be my tomorrow
Then you left me with a silent sorrow
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you
Your voice like an angel
Your smile like a drug
Now you're song's singing inside me
I'm wait'n for you to be here beside me
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you
Staring at the faces that go by
Afraid to look into an eye
Talking to strangers ain't got no choice
Listening for the sound of your voice
I'm waiting for you
Still waiting for you
