oh definitely. just yesterday i found out bri was pregnant, and now he’s a fully-formed human with thoughts an’ emotions an’ fuck, sof, he’s so funny. a sassy little thing. he doesn’t let me breathe half the time but i’d never have it any other way. he is me doppelgänger. you could look at a picture of me when i was six and a picture of him and wonder if it’s the same person. only twice? i got emotional just listenin’ to it once. the hardest ones to record are always the most rewardin’. felt that way about two of us. thing is, you can release what everyone wants to hear and do everythin’ right but at the end of the day you are the one who’s gotta perform these songs over and over. and you’re right there, that’s true. gotta capture a moment that you want captured, not somethin’ fleeting. but then again, any weird little temporary feeling can make a hit song. one of the songs written when in the band with the boys was initially inspired by wantin’ kfc. not somethin’ you’d think we’d wanna capture forever but, it became the title track of the third album. the world works in mysterious ways. but honestly, songs are amazin’, and now you get to breathe and just enjoy everyone’s reactions.
i don’t have kids but i can’t even wrap my head around how that must feel. he sounds just like you, like an exact replica of you. man, i’m gonna have to look up a photo of you at that age to compare, cause now i’m mildly intrigued to see the resemblance. only twice because that’s all i’d give them at the time. man, i want to say i recorded stay back in ‘18? possibly early ‘19. it’s been a while for most of the songs. two of us is one of the saddest songs i’ve heard but it’s so damn good. if you don’t mind me asking, was it for your mom? damn right about that and they’re always the ones that stick with you the longest. yea, you gotta be the proudest of it, it can’t be just you people-pleasing or it’s gonna be hell when you get to the point where you’re singing the song almost nightly. they also make the silliest songs, it’s my favorite to take random things thought the day and make funny chants with it. the clean-up song is a good example, you can find that on my sister’s twitter. okay, so i didn’t know that but now you have to tell me which song it is so i can listen to it. that’s always the hardest part of the process, just waiting to see what everyone likes.
