FAIR WARNING: What ever you think this song’s going to be, it’s not going to be that! I’m not even sure it qualifies as a “song.” More of an auditory experiment. (By the way, if you have surround sound, it might be more enjoyable that way…? But I’m not making any promises.)
As usual, the idea for this “song” came to me while I was in the kitchen, washing dishes. (I think the song genie who lives under my sink had been sniffing floor cleaner just before giving me this idea, though.)
But it’s all good. Sometimes the creative process is just about giving yourself permission to say “What if…?” and seeing where that curiosity leads you, right? It doesn’t always have to end up being your “best work ever.”
Anyway, if this is your first time stopping by to hear one of my “songs,” maybe… try a different track. ;D Thanks!
Nothing on my mind today
But I can hear a song
Asking me to to give it form
And so I play along
Not a lot of time today
But I have an idea
Not sure how this will turn out
It could be pretty weird
You might find it hard to listen
To this little tune
That’s okay, though, ‘cause this ditty
Will be over soon

Definitely doesn't strike me as weird. In fact it's songs like yours that make new music/artist discovery such a joy. The arrangement and production and on the nose lyrics are all the ingredients that keep me engaged. Short, sweet and with enough of a musical invitation to come back for more!

There's so much intriguing interplay with the different synth parts - I like it when there's little musical lines that make little sense on their own, but when put together.....
Plaudits on putting that vocal together - I had a piece where I needed to record each line separately to avoid passing out when singing it. That was hard to make it in any way sound natural. So doing every WORD!? Nicely done :)

I love it when FAWMers experiment -- this is a fun musical experiment. Definite ear candy.
