Breathless Press Release

I know I've been talking about this song for a long time, but through all the stumbling blocks and set backs, I've made it to a point where I'm ready to release this song for national radio air play. As a token of appreciation for rockin' with me for so long here's a free download of a demo version of "Breathless".

Breathless by Demeriese Naima Valier


Release Date: TBA

Record Label: Jamboree Music - JAM101



Demeriese Naima Valier wrote Breathless in December of 2005 while on Christmas break from college and it is the lead single on her debut LP Soul Beautiful. She says that at the time she had never been in love with anyone nor was there any man whom she had her eye on at the time, so it was shocking to her that she could even write a song like Breathless.



Breathless is an internalized dialog set to music that explores a whirlwind of emotions from confused, to aroused, to completely delirious by the end of the song. Sort of like the same way you feel when you're falling head over heels in love with someone.The music changes just as much as Demeriese's emotions do throughout the song. Starting off with only a string bass and Naima scatting, and then as the singing begins congas, it switches to a smooth Neo-Soul swing by the time the chorus comes around. Then just when you're used to the chill vibe, Demeriese unexpectedly takes you to church at the bridge.The producer, Klark Kent, was able to expertly convey with music the emotion that is behind the words that Demeriese wrote.



Demeriese jokes that she wrote the song so she could "conjure her up a man" that makes her feel the way she's singing about in her song. It's been said by wise men all over that words have immense power. It will be interesting to see if The Enchantress's spell will work.
