THE KEYS TO REOPENING - Sal Donato, "See Clear"

Sal and His Piano (With a Little Help From a Friend) Are Beginning to See the Light Sal Donato took Memorial Day off, in a sense. He stayed home and thought about the sacrifices made by service people and first responders. Midway through the afternoon, calmed by the pleasant sounds of birds, he called Boyce Day, Weekly World News reporter and Sal's longtime songwriting partner. “Boyce,” he said. “I’m taking the day off. But I’m thinking.” “Me too,” Day said. “I know exactly what you mean.” “When we go back out there, what will be like?” Sal said. “I think it’ll be strange,” Day said. “I agree,” Sal said. “Every time I start to speak about the future, I feel like I’m saying the wrong thing. Or when I sing about it. Words spoken, words sung.” “Stung?” Day said. “No,” Sal said. “Sung. Why?” “That gives me an idea,” said Day. “Speaking now is like a bee on your tongue.” “Whatever, weirdo,” Sal said. He hung up. Forty-five minutes later, Day emailed Sal lyrics. Forty-five minutes after that, Sal emailed Day a song. We now present, “See Clear,” by Sal Donato and Boyce Day, a new Weekly World News exclusive. And look for the upcoming album A-Sides and B-Sides From Inside: A Collection of Weekly World News’s Pandemic Songs, which will collect all of Donato and Day’s collaborations.

POSITIVE VIBES - SAL GOES SUNNY

For a month, at least, Weekly World News has been featuring new songs by our resident troubadour, Sal Donato. "I don't know of another project like this," said Ray Gunsel, WWN's musical archivist. "I have been around the world, partly as a musicologist, partly as a soldier of fortune. The less said about the latter, the better. I'll just say that I have a belt with fourteen notches in it. Where was I? Oh, yes—Sal. Well, I don't know of another project where a publication like this has given one man the opportunity to reflect on a national crisis in song for weeks on end." Sal has, for the most part, been collaborating with Boyce Day, a WWN staff writer. This week, though, there's a twist. Day himself was collaborating with the past—specifically, a pop-soul song from the late sixties. "I won't say which song," said Day. "For me, inspiration is a kind of game. I have the spark in my mind. See if you can find it in yours." "In mine?" said Sal. "Oh," said Day. "I didn't see that you were sitting right there." "I'm driving," said Sal. "How did you think that the car was moving?" "What I mean," said Day, 'is that my mind was elsewhere. But I don't mean your mind specifically. I mean the mind of anyone who was listening. Trace our song back into earlier songs." Weekly World News is proud to debut Sal and Day's new song, "You Are Here." You Are Here - Luciano Salvatore (music), Boyce Day (lyrics).

SAL DONATO - Quarantine Song "Standing Away"

“Social distancing is medically necessary but also takes an emotional toll,” said Sal Donato. “That was the first line I jotted down. But it wasn’t good for a lyric. I mean, lots of things rhyme with ‘toll’ — there’s ‘bowl,’ ‘mole,’ ‘remote control.’ I guess it could have worked. Still, I thought I needed a more personal approach, so I wrote down another few line: ‘You are standing away from me / Do you have something to say to me?’ “That suggested a story, a couple or a couple of friends who couldn’t get closer because the time we’re living in wouldn’t allow it. The song grew from there. For the melody, I thought back to a time when I felt completely connected to others. Back around 1979, I bought myself a cowboy hat and started going to cowboy bars. It was a big deal then: mechanical bulls, big belt buckles. There was a movie that came out right around then called Urban Cowboy. I don’t know if young people know it. It chronicled that scene. “The movie had a soundtrack, and the soundtrack had a song called ‘Look What You’ve Done to Me’ by Boz Scaggs. It’s always been in the back of my mind and when I was thinking of distance and the distance between us, it slid a little further toward the front. It’s a sad time, but also one where hope is beginning to flower.” We present Sal’s new song, “Standing Away” —
