Inside Out

whew.. so obviously, it's getting kinda late.

emily and i woke up and got to work on another song, which was coming along nicely, but i just couldn't get anything for verses.. it was very frustrating, so much that we decided to give it a rest and take a break. i ended up watching two musicals, hedwig and the angry inch (which was great) and gay pur-ee (which was not). so we didn't get home and working again until about five, maybe later..

and we decided to just write another song.. all things considered, it was a good idea. i was stuck.

we came up with Inside Out, which has this really confounding harmonic thing going on.. a bunch of dominant seventh chords or something, it's a little odd.

like a lot of good things, once the ball got rolling it couldn't stop.. it's mostly piano and drums and vocals, which is nice. i've been on a kick with mandolin and chimalong lately. emily did a kick ass job singing all these harmonies at the end, it's the best part of the song. she's a genius.

now i get to share a drink with morgan. it's his birthday. or tomorrow is. whatever.

Gay pur-ee? fucking terrible. seriously bad shit. i think it might be ok if you were very, very, very high. but a lot of other things would be better even then.

I'm glad you liked Hedwig. We should have just killed it after that; it's not a show you follow up with cracktastic Disney awfulness.
