Written by Dany in 2015 when she was very homesick while TW were in the Summer Program for Kids at Berklee College of Music in Boston. It was a homework assignment and was written the night before it was due. There is video of Dany talking about how homesick she was.
Here's what Dany said about the song at a storytelling concert in 2018 (translated from Spanish) "With your permission, I'm going to sit down to tell you a little more about this next song. Well, this next song is very, very, very special for me because, to be honest, I struggled a bit more when I first started as a composer. I remember being in Boston-we were studying at Berklee College of Music-and we had a composition class. It was a group class where each of us had to bring a composition. We would analyze it and see what could be improved. We had the task of writing a song. I remember that one day before class, I still had absolutely nothing. I was thinking, 'What am I going to do?' It wasn't because I was lazy or had forgotten the assignment-I just hadn't found inspiration for a song. In that moment of despair, I missed my home and my friends a lot because we had been away for a long time. I also felt like nobody understood that I didn't work the same way as others when it came to composing. That's when this song, When I'm Alone, was born."
Great reaction, I recommend that when you react to The Warning concerts in Mexico, turn the subtitles from Spanish to English. What Dany said to the audience was one of the most magical moments of that night, bringing out how special these girls are. A hug
