Sitting watching the sunset in the city! Loving how the light interacts with the water. This would be romantic except i'm all alone.

Went to the music shop in the city and looked around at all the 'musicians' that still had money. I chuckled to myself. :-)

This boy on the train is wearing floral pants a purple shirt and a vintage blazer and. I'm so proud of him even though he looks rediculous

I just walked out my front door n there was 5 ducks standing on the end of my driveway n a few more up the street. I think i attract the bizzare...

Just had to abandon my coffee to get on a bus. Epic sadness ;-(

Hanging out at southbank today. To many memories of aus idol n xfactor auditions. Don't know how i feel...

Going to upload a cover soon where its just me n my guitar. I'm a bit nervous as its raw and electronicless.

Just heard the sadest thing. On the train we went past a hospital and this little boy pointed to it n said this is where my dad died.

Agh! How could i leave home without my headphones! My life today is going to be musicless. :-(

Its a big day for me. Getting love defeat mastered by dave neil. I'm excited but very nervous.

Omfg sneaky sound system were amazing. I touched conies hand.

People are never who they seem. I'm never who i seem. Its just a vicious circle, but i'm ready to play the game.

Enjoying the sunshine. Feels like forever since i've seen it.

2011 were in the future.

ran like crazy to catch train! jumped like a retard through the doors thinking i was goin to miss it. was embarrassed when the train didn't move for 5mins. Fail

Having chinese and green tea for dinner. One healthier them the other :-P

I feel that being able to express myself through music has allowed me to get through some pretty tough times in my life. Do you feel that music has done the same for you?

Kaity perry on tonight! How do i not have tickets! :-(

Some guy threw a rock at me today. I would have hoped that post primary n high skool i wouldn't have to put up wit bullies.

I think the world can find peace if we can all be @ peace within ourselves...its hard but don't hold onto hate.

I have the nicest mum in the world! She made me the best bacon n egg muffin thing for breakfast!

Martin solveig! Amazing! Creamfields rocks!

Brisbane city is filled with concrete building. Its the canvas for urbanism.

Heading to the coast for some much needed chill time.

About to get my haircut! I'm a bit sacred...

I'm eating pumpkin resotto from my work. Omg this is so yummm!

Is music really just brain washing us? imbedding messages into our subconcious?

So many puzzels. Puzzels everywhere...

Sometimes i wonder and i wonder for too long. Then i forget how long i wondered for...

Nothing is ever what it seems. Even what you see. The cracks in the surface will remind you of what is and what isn't.

I look so hard but i see no stars...the night is dark

I just had a dream about apple juice. Got up went to find some but settled for sprite...

Stephen Carmichael's New Single My Heart

The day has finally arrived! After months of hard work slaving away on my laptop asking questions like should the drums be 1bd louder, and I need more space in the mix, and it doesn't build enough in the choruses I'm proud to release my new single titled "My Heart!"

It's been an extremely long 3 and a half months but I've made it! I started writing this song on April the 16th (2010) and I uploaded a demo for you all to listen to and to 'review'.

I want to thank everyone who took the time to lend me their thoughts on how to improve the track!
and I have to note three important people who helped me tremendously!

First of all thank you to Kiri Jenkinson who helped me perfect the lyrics. Thank you to producer Daniel Taylor who gave me is pearls of production wisdom and helped me perfect the 'mixing' side of things.


But the biggest thank you of all has to go to Jay Echeverria who is actually featured on the track!!! Thanks to Jay I have some awesome electric guitar parts (with his signature sound) in the mix. He also sung some of the backing vocals...

Once again It's been a long journey but it's been worth it! It's already in the process of being uploaded to iTunes and almost every other online store (tunecore assures me it will be before August the 14th).

But, If you like you can listen to the song and maybe even purchase a copy of it from here:

Also keep your eyes peeled to my you tube Chanel as I'm going to upload the film clip to this song any day!
