Singled Out: Beborn Beton's A Worthy Compensation
. The title track "A Worthy Compensation" is a curiosity and proof that patience and persistence pay off in the end and that truly great songs will find you when you're ready for them. I started writing the lyrics in the middle of a new relationship back then in 2006 to express my feelings for my newly found love. The world is spinning, everything's new and exciting, you know. But I didn't get much further than writing the first set of verses. First of all, I didn't know how I wanted to continue with the story and secondly I was interrupted by the end of the relationship. As sad as that was, we still wanted to pursue the song because the music that Till had written was very strong. We knew that this track would turn out a highlight but I could get my head straight and didn't want to finish the song devoid of the initial feeling. It just didn't feel right. So year after year we finished all the songs, recorded and produced them with Olaf Wollschl�ger at his studio complex and I still couldn't get a grip on that one song. Well, years later after some serious relationship, I finally met my lost love again and we fell in love... again. It seems back then we did not have the experience what really bad times feel like and we weren't able to see and cherish how good we were together and that we were in fact a perfect match. From then on the missing verses practically wrote themselves. Finally, on a long night at the studio, the penny dropped. We were playing around with some chord progressions when suddenly I came up with a vocal melody and the lyrics to what would later be transformed into these two bridges that make this song such an epic piece and that contain the message and that special twist that I was looking for in the first place. It almost felt like I had to write down what was unwound before my inward eye. An epiphany that relieved me of years of suppressed pain and grief and accumulated frustration. Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
