This would make a great Tom Petty song. Not that you didn't do a great job, but it would be great to sit at home and let someone else make you rich$$

I really like this song. You always seem to make good contributions to the Songpull catalog...except for that one time.

It's better to let your little light "Shine "than to be in the dark.

About the Song

Jason explains that he's in a different place in his life and many of the songs he's been writing lately are about his spiritual battles and how they balance with his life. Shine is one of these songs that was inspired by taking time to write down his goals and finding himself starting with the end and ending with the beginning and realizing that it's a struggle to be the person you really want to be.

About the Songwriter

I have been a songwriter for about twelve years. During that time I developed my graphic design skills making posters, CD packaging, and other propaganda for my own band and other various freelance clients. After various odd jobs through the years including a car wash, TGI Fridays, a music store, telemarketing, Hotels.com, and a gas station clerk, I’m now an owner of a 10 person design firm, Departika, in Springfield, Missouri, where I’m the Creative Director for Interactive Design. I’m also the owner of Designfruit.com—-a site primarily devoted to photoshop brushes and other resources for designers. I started writing songs at about 17 years of age. I formed a band (Fern), dropped out of college, and hit the road. Fern released three albums and I have thirty or so unreleased songs as a solo artist. My biggest claim to fame is a tour with the Goo Goo Dolls during the seven years of Fern’s existence.
