Terra Lightfoot Shares “Someone Else’s Feeling” From Upcoming Album, Healing Power
This October, celebrated songwriter and guitarist Terra Lightfoot will release her new album, Healing Power, via Sonic Unyon Records. Today, she’s following up the LP’s debut single, “Cross Border Lovers”, with “Someone Else’s Feelings”, a song Terra wrote in England during Americanafest UK.
“I remember standing in a room full of songwriters and someone was talking about doing an upcoming Bob Dylan tribute night, and they said ‘Isn’t it just so easy to sing someone else’s feelings?’” she says. “I excused myself and went to an old cemetery across the road from the venue, and the song fell out amongst a few British teenagers who were up to no good nearby. (They left me alone, though.) ‘Someone Else’s Feelings’, to me, was written about how we sometimes let other people’s opinions and feelings dictate how we feel about a situation. Sometimes we make excuses for other people, or we don’t speak up when we know someone is saying something we don’t agree with. The phrase in the last verse ‘Hung that picture in the hall’ is about how we sometimes carry other people’s opinions and words with us into our own worlds and sometimes hold them in higher regard than our own emotions.”
