A transporting, cinematic track expressing a longing to get away from the stresses of life. Inspired by childhood memories of being on a magical island - Hayman Island - in the Whitsundays at the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland, Australia. Listen to the song and be transported to a peaceful paradise.
More about the song: Karen was inspired to write the song while in lockdown in April, 2020. She was thinking about where she could be if she could be anywhere in the world, and reflected on childhood memories of visiting the magical Hayman Island. Karen says “when I was a child and we had family visiting us in Mackay, we would drive two hours north to Shute Harbour and take a three island cruise day trip. Lunch was always on Hayman Island where we would sit surrounded by gardens, and peacocks would roam. These memories are imprinted in my heart and it’s beyond my wildest dreams that the song could lead us to now be based here. I am in awe of life, that we can now see Hayman Island from the balcony of where we live. To film the music video for this song on Hayman Island herself is a dream come true, and the staff at the InterContinental resort welcomed us with open arms.”
TAKE ME TO HAYMAN ISLAND is a single from Karen Jacobsen’s album READY FOR WHAT I CAME HERE FOR, produced by Matt Anthony (Darius Rucker, Shinedown, Pat Monahan of Train) at Engine Sound in New York City.
