Andrew Russe (86.155.32.98) said Thursday Short but very sweet... These short ones encourage me to add all sorts of extra meaning myself as I'm listening. That's kinda what happens when we listen to songs anyway - no matter how much the lyrics are designed to lead us to certain conclusions or "points of view"... a song never really says what the songwriter thinks it says ... but these short ones encourage this "listener completes the song" process even more, they let my mind run free ... love it.

I love that you don't hold back and anything goes. I never know what's going to jump out of that brain of yours! Love the arrangement, the harmonies and nature! Fun and short. I think I could have gone a little longer, but I'll just play it, again or put it on a loop if it will let me!! Write on!!! Thanks for the share!!

:) I wondered if that was the case - but then the "oh here's some words, whatever, at least they rhyme" often speak the loudest to the listeners! ... It's just gone 8am here. Just seen Mrs R off (her boss collects her - she's a nanny), I've been working since 6.15am... doesn't look like the sun is actually coming out today here!
