Uh oh..i'm on stage...eek
well i don't have the full length yet, only 'do
soemthing' and 'i've committed murder.'
'do something' hit me at just the right time, spoke to
me loud and clear like a goddam bugle to the head. For
that reason, she's taken a special place in my heart.
And it's kind of my theme song for the summer. :)
'I've committed murder', on the other hand, tells a
story.
so many lyrics consist of just some floaty words that
sound nice together, or the same old boring
one-dimensional relationship whining...I like lyrics
that tell a story you haven't already heard 3 times
today, and it's only lunchtime.
