Video #194 of 1000 – Jen Miller – Painted Heart. Recorded in her backyard in East Vancouver on Oct. 1, 2012 in HD (1080p on XA10).

Jen’s a new friend that I met since I began EveryDayMusic. It’s a great pleasure making the acquaintance of talented singer/songwriters and an even greater privilege to spend my spare time (these days) collecting songs from them in their studios, stairwells, basements and back-yards around Vancouver. Jen played a brand new song for me that we both expected I would be posting here, but I asked about her favorite song and she played me “Painted Heart”… which made my heart ache with empathy. Love songs, or in this case, wanting to be loved songs are amongst the most common songs written. They touch upon every person needs and desires and that’s why they’ve always filled the pop charts.
