Second song by Madeleine. About her experiences on speed (adderall). Definitely a Suicidal Tendencies influence here.

This is a love song, but it is NOT workplace safe. Unless you work at a strip club or adult "novelties" shop, headphones are highly recommended.

I have no idea why I named this song "Random". (hmm, maybe that's EXACTLY why I named it "Random.") I never use the word, I hate when other people do, and it's not mentioned in this song. Enjoy the recital.

Lots of use of Loops and effects with nerdy rapping going on in this song. Just like one of the lines of the lyrics suggest, I forgot what I was talking about all together on this song. Probably has to do with saying "just like" before everything…

This is the first tune I wrote using an actual loop pedal. I really like the rawness of its form. The sound is sharp, it kind of attacks your ear.. but then after it loops around a few times, it calms down and sinks in..
