Some people believe it takes a little suffering for an artist to reach the true inspiration deep within them. A lot of people might not agree, but maybe it was some suffering through trying times that helped gospel singer, songwriter, and musician
Wayne Watson pen the songs on this self-titled recording that was released in the summer of 2000. Before he started work on this album, an accident left
Watson in no shape to continue the uncompromising schedule of his longtime demanding musical career. Day-to-day life became a battle of its own, and after a while he couldn't help but seriously consider the downhearted possibility of giving up his musical career forever. Before he could take the final steps away, though, a higher calling seemed to have other plans for him to stay in the battle. He began receiving good news, like one of his songs being used on the hit television show Touched by an Angel. Somehow he began performing again and soon started work on this album. It took him only a little over two months to write all of the songs for this self-titled offering. Some of the powerful tunes fans can sample on this recording are "The Ones Left Standing," "Pray," "The Blood of Jesus," "More Than a Little Unusual," and "Everything Can Change So Fast." ~ Charlotte Dillon
