“I started doodling with words, and the song came together itself. I actually forgot about it, but when we were starting to record music I found the lyric and it hit me,” says Shane. “I was actually the guy in the song about one year after I wrote it. I knew it needed to be recorded, but something was missing. I showed it to Anthony, my college friend and caregiver at the time. He came up with the suggestion to alter one of the last lines of the song which is ‘I’m giving in to the strength I’ll find within.’ That really took the lyric in an uplifting direction.”
In an exclusive premiere with The Country Note, editor Janeen Megloranzo stated “Music may not be a prescription, but it is medicine, especially when the lyrics of a song are relatable. Songwriter, author, and motivational speaker Shane Michael Taylor‘s I’m Giving In is one of those songs that can help those going through any difficult period in their life.”
Shane’s newest single, I’m Giving In, reflects on his past experiences with crippling isolation that has since become retable for many amidst the global pandemic. Shane is a Waterbury, Connecticut native that moved to Nashville after frequently visiting Music City to co-write with songwriters such as Lorna Flowers and Mason Douglas. He has used his personal battles with cerebral palsy to enthusiastically motivate and entertain others through his music, books and speaking engagements.
The latest single I’m Giving In will be available on all streaming platforms April 23 with a music video to be released shortly afterwards. To stay updated on Shane Michael Taylor’s upcoming endeavors, visit the following links:
