Steve Vai,Jon Bloomer: Jon gives you the blow by blow low down on Steve Vai's upcoming release

I had similar feelings about ‘The Moon and I’ when I first heard it way back when it was released as one of Steve’s VaiTunes but again it has grown on me and Steve’s guitar playing is so incredibly captivating on this track and capture exactly how he describes the impetus behind this composition. Following a period of depression Vai had a moment where his perspective started to shift, “During those dark, low periods, I would have these dreams in which I was free of all that emotional chaos. I would see things that were very pleasing and beautiful… these landscapes of planets and stars. They were ethereal and colorful and profoundly beautiful. During these dreams, I was floating and surfing in the cosmos in a state of complete freedom. I wrote the lyrics to The Moon And I based on how I was feeling during those moments of euphoria and bliss.”
