OK, maybe not your best, but you're brave to let us all hear its spontaneity. I have seen at gigs the audience being asked for titles and the singer making something up on the spot - are you up for that?
Easy when you get out the rhyming dictionary! Rhymezone.com has been useful on many occasions….
I’d probably be rubbish at the thinking up songs on the spot thing, I’m usually more of a craft it in my own time guy. But who knows? Maybe worth a try? Definitely one for a gig that’s going well so there’s nothing to lose.
Haha I love it! was bopping away with you doodlin' in the background, until the part about "let me tell you what's cool..." wrenched me back to full concentration. Magic.
Fuck off with your hats all the time, all the time.... hats!
Jake, love, being brave is rarely comfortable and never easy. Like failing...Every year that passes makes me braver - especially last year, but not yet necessarily more comfortable. And yet...Failing is part of being alive. We forget that at our peril; wrap ourselves up in Easy and turn the Big Thoughts off.... I think you are an inherently courageous person with a really big heart and a truly fabulous view of the world. It shines out of everything you do. Whatever life throws at you, that makes you pause, just look at your music and look to that other most wondrous walking creation of yours... and marvel afresh at your bravery and just crack on with it! We will all be here whatever the outcome, cheering you on. Thank you also for brightening our inboxes with your periodic perusals and contemplative correspondence.. ok I feel better now too! xxx
No need to be sad if it’s not great! Doubt I’ll take it further to be honest, it was just a moment in time. And there’s always the next one, that’s the process.
Totally true about the rhythm! Also mood, emotions, what I had for lunch….
Hadn’t thought of that yeah I guess lots of things have an influence on the process of songwriting as I suppose it’s a reflection of day to day life and it’s impact
Really appreciate the insight into the process.
It sounded like you were having fun with the train of thought and the rhythm kinda matched that too.
Splurn is magical as are the chords that followed.
Ta!
Learn, spurn, burn, gurn, turn 🤪 xx
Clearly nothing beats splurn, it says more than real words ever could
Interesting listen with some fragments in there I could easily see you using in a fully developed song I'm sure Jake
Of course we want to see the real you, your vulnerability is your strength and what makes you interesting and incredibly talented.
Spurn, turn, gurn; second tier squirm, firm, etc.

Look forward to London gig.

A very unique insight into the potential for a great 👌(or maybe not so😢) future track.
Interesting all the same.
I wonder whether different lyrics would jump out depending on the rhythm you choose to play?🤔 Thanks for sharing this.
