Couch.
Since the inception of this thread, I've been inspired to write, not story songs, but simple, intimate lyrics. People, when they speak intimately, speak plainly and simply. They say things like, "I want to hold your hand," or "She loves you," or "You're still the one." Folks like songs that say such things just as well, maybe more than, they like story songs. I understand, some folks don't like the early Beatles lyrics, think they are "fluff," but the average person, obviously, did. Every girl I knew in high school did.
The lyric that was inspired by Jason Blume's lyrics and philosophy is already finished, Razzy Bailey and I cowrote it. I won't reveal the hook (it's very simple), but it will be released during this year on Razzy's next project. When it's released, I'll identify the hook and give information where you can buy it.
For story songs of mine, pre Blume, I recommend you listen to "The Voice" or "Mama's Dancing" on my cd "Mike Dunbar '02" available for sale at CDBaby.
You've got to know your limitations. I don't know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way. -Johnny Cash It's only music. -niteshift Mike Dunbar Music
