about

Inspired in part by Queen, who is a favorite of the song's lyricist Terri Knudsen, I'll Miss You starts and ends with a guitar melody. The vocal by San Diego vocalist Jody Bagley is just a small section in the middle, effectively turning the song inside-out: putting the guitar where the vocals usually are and the vocal where the guitar solo usually is. The Queen song Bijou was put together in a similar way; mainly guitar but a beautiful, short vocal by the at that time terminally ill Freddie Mercury.

"It's got much more of a classical influence than anything thing else I've ever written," says DePatie. "I was trying to get a little bit of a Queen sound mixed with Jeff Beck's interpretation of Nessun Dorma."

The song was conceived by lyricist/producer Terri Knudsen, written by DePatie/Knudsen and mixed by Aaron Bagley.

lyrics

The party might be over
But years from now I'll still remember
When cupid danced in wild disguise
And inspired me to change my life

I'll miss you
