Melbourne-based alternative rock singer/songwriter Markus Saastamoinen has just released his new single and music video, The Day That I Met You. The single is taken from his upcoming album release, Falling Up (out on March 15).
“The song is about remembering the day that I met my girl and the anticipation of finally seeing her again after those few years. How I would feel seeing her, all the things I wanted to say to her, how I would tell her how I felt about her and how she made me feel! The music for the song came from a riff that I came up with on holiday in Finland a few years ago. It never fit as a rock song and only worked when I discovered it should be a ballad.”
