Singer-songwriter Scott Gordon offers superbly crafted songs in a mostly progressive pop-rock genre with a sensitivity to varied audiences. Unique and innovativ
I am a singer-songwriter who writes and performs progressive rock and light rock ballads on piano, keyboards and guitar. I sometimes bring in my wife, friends and former bandmembers to assist with my performances, but with busy schedules amongst us, more often than not these are usually solo performances enhanced with MIDI back-up tracks, which provide a beautiful contrast of a live vocal and guitar or piano over a pre-recorded background.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song while my wife was traveling to Asia and I was home alone. I finished it the second night and stayed up late to record it and send it to her as an mp3 email that same night.
Lyrics
HOPE YOU'RE ALRIGHT February 2008 Costa Rica Darling I was hoping I would find you at home Didn't want to face another night all alone I hope you're happy and warm - Safe from the upcoming storm You are the one that I love - Sent from the heaven above - FOR ME Some bad news today - it made me shiver with cold I'm feeling helpless inside like I am getting so old Those mighty towers of trust - Came down and crumbled in dust And now we're losing our way - Somehow we've got to be brave - And try to save what will save - FOR NOW The spirit is willing but the flesh can be weak The machine has grown strong and now it's starting to speak It needs chaos and war to keep on It will not stop until our freedoms are gone Our love is trapped in those lies - We should be reaching the skies - Much like that bird as it flies - ARISE! Darling I was wishing I could see you tonight But now I'm only hoping that you're doing alright You're such a long way away - And so I wait and I pray That I can find you again - No matter how long it's been - HOW LONG? Hope You're Alright - 2008 - Scott Gordon
