Contrary to my previous posts, I have decided to slightly alter my plans in relation to the song choice. Originally, I had planned to use the song Tin Pan Alley by The Gaslight Anthem, though in retrospect I don't feel the song suits. Firstly, I am fan of the song and not particularly the official recording. To therefore use the song, I would have to record my own version, potentially wasting time on a mediocre recording. Secondly, I feel that the lyrics and story-line of the song stray from the idea I have confirmed for the visuals.
To remedy this, I began to browse Unsigned.com to find a good choice of song which not only would be more suitable, but would allow me to use it without having to record my own version along with less restrictions on copyrights from the label. Fairly quickly, I came across an artist from Canada called Daniel Lewandowski who's acoustic song So Far (Now titled All I Want) immediately felt like the perfect choice. On further research, I found that he released a Studio version which I liked equally. Soon after this I was able to contact him to which he replied graciously giving his blessing to use the song. In addition, he has offered to create an improved mix of the song to my feedback to merge the acoustic and studio versions, in keeping with my original, acoustic premise.
