Singer-Songwriter CJ Temple Shares Profound New Single “I Am You Are Me”
Despite her debut album coming about later this month, the latest single from singer-songwriter CJ Temple was originally written back in 2007. “It took me five minutes to write and also started as a simple piano ballad, but after my producer got his hands on it, it became what I wished it always could’ve been and more”, she shares.
While time has passed, the song’s original message holds true. “It was always a song about heartbreak, but now it feels like a journey from beginning to end and I’m extremely proud of it.”
In line with artists such as Tori Amos, Annie Lennox, and Amy Lee, CJ Temple uses her captivating vocal qualities to transform her emotive lyricism into a cinematic and profound listening experience, shaped further by lush instrumentation and transfixing orchestral arrangements.
“I Am You Are Me” will be on her forthcoming debut album Smoke, out January 28th.
