Sat, 22 September 2007  Screw your courage to the sticking place Believe it or not, this is a co-write with a 4-year-old. We were in the car after soccer practice and Zoe was washing her hands with a wet-wipe post-popsicle when she blurted out the main melody for the verse and the chorus, all at once, with that curious off-beat: "Give me another wipe: I'm still sticky, my hands are still sticky!" I raced home, grabbed the Tele, and turned it into Lady Macbeth. If you picture Lady Mac being played by the First Lady instead of Dame Judy I won't hold it against you. Note: The beat box was killing me in a bad way - so I re-mixed without it. I would go all Macbeth on Duncan with someone to be able to do this with a real band. Oh well. Comments[0] |
Sat, 22 September 2007 Jean Luc's been looking for the muse. Julia's been looking for the muse. And her name is Jennifer. Where's she been hiding? She ain't been turning tricks downtown again, has she? Ashes to ashes, funk to funky - we know Jenny's just a junkie. My hand drumming is worse than the beat box. Oh well. Comments[0] |
