In Their Words: “I lead a songwriting retreat where I tell writers to write the song that comes to them. ‘Today and Every Day’ was me taking my own advice. It’s unusually straightforward and unabashedly optimistic for me. But it feels honest. Iโve met people who have done more to clean the air and water, balance the carbon in the atmosphere, and restore habitats in the last five years than I did in the 25 before it. I found myself writing something with a bouncy melody, straight-ahead harmonies and not a single metaphor, and that was exactly right for what it turned out to be. Itโs hope.” — Dar Williams
