Catchy melody Rightly . I guess a sitar would work man . Looks like you put a lot of work in on this
Nice job man !!!

After D Am C6 G I shuffled my way through the rest.
The sentiment was unusual for me.

@rightly  – as always, an intriguing production and as you say and uplifting positive song, a declaration of love no less, still with the characteristic lyrical twists and turns. I really enjoyed this – no surprise there. I really like the jaunty motif (not sure what instrument).. Nice one, sir!

K

A declaration, maybe, not the whining kind though.
The jaunty must be horns n piano. Thanks Karen.

This is interesting.. I have a complicated relationship with the “c” word…

In Ireland, there are places were it is widely used and not seen as “extreme” and many of my friends including my husband come from one of these places. So I am used to them using it frequently and without causing offence.  I expect that this is the case for other parts of the English-speaking world too.

However I grew up somewhere where this wasn’t the case so it was always seem as a fairly hardcore, extreme curse word.

I also think it's something to do with the very hard "c" sound - in the same way that "cock" sounds much harsher than "prick" (for example).

I have two daughters - both in their late teens and their circle of friends frequently use it and don’t take offence at its use. They’ve kind of claimed it in an empowering way.

Having said that, in my home, it’s not acceptable in general use / conversation but at the same time I don’t have a problem with it.  We Irish curse A LOT!

So I think if you’re bothered to review a lyric, it’s logical to me that you might  object to the use of the c-word but why on earth would you not just make that point and review the lyric? Or say nothing? Not post at all? To write off a whole lyric because of the use of one word seems bizarre to me..

So… to the lyric - I’m intrigued.. I don’t understand it fully but then I never do with your lyrics and that’s why I like them so much.

Looking forward to hearing the song..

I like this
creepy lyrics. They fire up my imagination

I've never heard my own laughter
Too in it to take note
an elemental aspect of living, living as opposed to surviving

I remember reading Jesus' life stories as a kid
Sometimes, there was a born again Christian within spitting distance (Evil laugh)
I remember asking if he'd ever come across a JC story where he was actually, intentionally funny
With unusual sobriety the born again said something to the tune of "nothing ages faster than humour"

I've heard Dylan capture humour (at least for me) in a song
With his persona there's a whole lot of setting the context.

It's rare we get humour in a song.

Songwriters will go to any length to give us something to cry about.
just saying

Hey, Great song!

 

In view of what we are, I believe that in the end, when we cross the last door, none of this would matter, all feeling are necessary here perhaps because flesh does not exist there but energy does. It's like a flesh shower we need to have from time to time!!! hahaha
Well, I think those things, surely there will be people who think even more absurd things hahahaha But the only reality that exists is that of the absurd.

My father had a laughter sooo unique! When he laughed, everybody ended up laughing with him, his laughter was contagious!!!
Today, from the distance that time allows, I see his face laughing with his white teeth standing out against his tanned skin and I have the feeling that with every laugh he took a bite out of the world!

Thank you @rightly

Like Spotify or Fb, it takes some promotion $ to get noticed
You don’t have to go hog wild , A few bucks a day will do it

The song is about a girl that is daydreaming and hoping for having success in life.

English is not my native language so would appreciate feedback on the lyrics also. (Lyrics is in the song description on soundboard)
