Story behind the song:Our kids give us great inspiration for our music. When Jon's 17 yearold daughter said how much she loved this song, Jon decided to try it. He experienced a flood of inspiration. "Never has a piano part cometogether this fast" Jon says. Steve experienced similar inspirationwhile composing the cello parts. Since the lyrics suggest a bridewalking towards the groom in a ceremony we thought we would include aquote from the Bridal Chorus by Wagner in the climax of the song.(It is carefully disguised).As it seems to always go, Paul and Tel didn't find the spot until they spent 9 hours driving around southern Utah the day before the shoot looking. After getting a little discouraged by not finding anything that great, they just happened to check out a little hidden spot right near Baker Dam and thought it was perfect for the song. The next morning we all loaded up the piano and headed out there to film, but after getting the Truck and Trailer stuck and waiting for the sun to move, we didn't get started filming until that evening having about 3 hours of light. It was so fun to film and play in the middle of the trees!CreditsA Thousand Years written by CHRISTINA PERRI, DAVID HODGESPublished by SUMMIT BASE CAMP FILM MUSIC, EMI BLACKWOOD MUSIC INC, CHRISTINA PERRI D/B/A MISS PERRI LANE PUBLISHINGArrangement produced by Jon SchmidtArrangement written by Al van der Beek, Jon Schmidt, & Steven Sharp NelsonPerformed by Jon Schmidt: pianoSteven Sharp Nelson: acoustic cello, & cello-percussionMusic recorded, mixed & mastered by Al van der Beek at TPG StudioVideo produced by Paul Anderson & Tel Stewart
