The Three Letter Word Beginning With S

This is the creation that I call the obligatory sex song. 

I felt I needed to write something with sex in the title as I had heard, enjoyed and brought three songs in the past six years that had the word in the title of their songs.

A friend of mine said that the song was completely different to what he thought I would come up with in terms of the mood of the music, even though the title sounded like me at the time, “Sex with me”.  He imagined it would be an upbeat bass pumping song but I was pleased with the outcome of this demo as it brought about a thought of a seductive, slowly sinking into the groove feeling with a few quirky lines.

Better Than The Song Before

For this next song, I picked a situation with a girl that felt she was in love with me from my last year of school.

I had written the verses for this song but was stuck on what the hook or chorus line could be.  It came to the night before I was due to record this track.  As I walked into my living room, I heard something on TV and it hit me out of the blue.

Quickly before the moment passed, I found my lyric sheet & wrote it down.

The name of the song I came up with was “I don’t want a lover”

After being in the studio the last time I knew I wasn’t going to be behind the mic. 

From the opening cord I felt this could be a good song.  We laid it down on tape and I listened to it a number times on the ride home.

With this song I allowed some friends to listen to the track.  Their thoughts were, “the poor girl” I was writing about but at the same time wanted to listen to the song again as soon as it finished.

Now I am not photogenic in anyway but I have decided to put a photo with me in a scenario related to the song.
