STORY BEHIND THE SONG:
The first time I ever talked to Emmanuelle Vera on the phone I told her how much I liked her name. I'd never heard of a girl named Emmanuelle before, and to me the name "Emmanuelle" felt very poetic and spiritual. I later learned that it means "God is with us" ...so no wonder ;) ...A couple months later I met Emmanuelle in person for the first time when we recorded a cover of "Payphone" by Maroon 5 together. This song "Emmanuelle" is a compilation of everything I thought to myself and we talked about together while recording that cover. I wrote this song the very next day...
Thanks to Ton Uy of "Two Years Apart" & Sam Mangubat for the great background vocals, and Calvin Uy for filming us.

"Emmanuelle"
Written by: David DiMuzio
I love that you don't have a good side
I love that your favorite color t-shirts are white
I dig the fact you wouldn't like this song
If I hadn't written it for you
An American dreamer with a Filipina Smile
A heart of gold and a careless style
I love that I don't wanna curse in front of you
And I wanna read my Bible, again too
You've got a lifetime of secrets I'm dying to share
I will always be there
Emmanuelle
The moment I saw you's the moment I fell
Emmanuelle, won't you make it easy on me
You say I'm so 90's well that was my era
But I'm glad that we still both like Tegan and Sara
Or maybe it's Tegan we don't have to agree on everything
As long as you like John Mayer & Sting
When I heard your name and I saw your face
Like a hallelujah sung be a church choir
Or a postcard from Paris thinking someday
