@Andrea_Stolpe Writing lyrics that are fresh and without cliche’; heartfelt experiences that can appeal universally. It’s a very tough thing to do. Davis, Pattison, you, all give great advice but moving the chess piece to the first square I get befuddled.
@Andrea_Stolpe The best song I ever wrote was about my daughter who I didn’t want to grow up anymore. The lyrics just flowed from the fountain of my heart.
@Andrea_Stolpe This is such great advice but not as easy as it sounds. Some of us still think it’s all about poetry and it’s hard to break that tendency to follow that road. Thanks Andrea.
@alasoff@foxjust@opinion No, not altogether true. This week getting off BART, I had to sidestep a four foot smear of human feces on Market heading into the office. I can’t unsee it.
