Love Me Anyway: Chris Eckman and I had been working on the music and melody for this song but I was absolutely stuck on the lyrics. The worst thing that can happen when writing a song is that you have "place-setting" lyrics that you don't like. You've been singing them, hearing their rhythm but you also know that they're not the ones you'll use (that story about Paul McCartney's 'Scrambled Eggs' becoming 'Yesterday' comes to mind). Anyway, time was running out during our session in Ljubljana and I knew that I wanted to record the song but just didn't know what to say. And then one night before I returned to my hotel Chris lent me a DVD of "The Piano Teacher," a very disturbing movie by German director Michael Haneke. I was mesmerized, shocked, blown away and distracted just enough where the words to this song just quickly poured out of me. Sometimes you just have to climb outside of yourself for a little while to get where you're going.
