About a year ago, when Imogen Rose,
author of the cult bestselling series, the Portal Chronicles, was surfing
YouTube she stumbled upon a song, “If We Fall” by SHE SAID SAVE ME, and
instantly fell in love with both the lyrics and the male vocal. She put the
song on her writing playlist and looked up the Toronto-based band on Facebook…
and liked their page. A while later, Imogen received a PM from Joe Vercillo,
saying that if her books were ever adapted for film or TV she should feel free
to use his music. She had no idea who he was, but looked him up. Imagine her
fan girl sqee moment when she discovered that he was the lead vocalist for SHE
SAID SAVE ME! Imogen and Joe have been Facebook friends ever since.
The Portal Chronicles starts off
with a serendipitous meeting in a London pub, which propels the lives of the
characters into a time warp of what-ifs. During the prologue, which is the key
to the story, Rupert is humming a song in that London pub where Olivia and he
seal their fate. Imogen Rose always wondered what he was singing. Until late
one night, when she closed her eyes and “heard” it. Imogen wrote the lyrics and
SHE SAID SAVE ME put it to music. What better day than Valentine’s Day to
release this song that defines the romance that is PORTAL?

Congratulations, Imogen. That is so cool. :)
With those lyrics, music and amazing vocals it has to be a winner for you.
Thanks, Vicki! I really enjoyed this project, and hope I'll get to do similar ones again. I get to add "songwriter" to my bio. :D
