Needs

Following in the footsteps of Mr. Fearless (THE BOOB GUY), NEEDS is the second album in FIRSTCOMESLOVE, Mrs. Tasha Miller's 2013 trilogy of albums! NEEDS is passion-filled balladry...Tasha's songs explain (with a voice UNMATCHED, hardly compared and rarely forgotten) feelings and situations surrounding empathy for others. Whether with joy or pain, NEEDS will fill you up. Tasha doesn't leave you thoughtless. Blue Carpet is about an empty child who lives at a daycare. Whose parents simply work so much that they've forgotten about the child altogether. That's All I Want For you is a parental anthem. Magic In love reaches out to someone who has coped with the death of a lover. Didn't Anybody Tell You That You're Wonderful tries to hold someone who is considering suicide (or who struggles with severe depression). Taller Than Me draws a reference to the Shel Silverstein classic, The Growing Tree. So many heartfelt real situations. Heavy. And just what this world needs.
