I've been trying to finish up a piece. Almost there. About a week ago I
pulled out the acoustic and tried writing. Guess it's like fishing for bass
at the wrong time and in the wrong part of the lake --got skunked. So I
figure: I suck. I'll never be able to write another song. Not ever. I
will die first. Picked up the guitar again yesterday. Whomp, along comes a
tune. I got a general "concept" on the lyrics, but the melody line and
chords all just came rushing out, middle eight and all. I'm no great witer,
but I think the piece could mature into something worth listening to a few
times.
It seems like it's often this way. For a day or two I truly believe, as
in Saturday night revival stuff, that I will not be able to craft another
song. It's freakin' goulish. I want to trash the guitar and chuck the
studio out the window, or at least sell it off :-) I'm crazy right? Nobody
else goes through this. I'm not singing the blues here, just commenting on
the process. Does this ring any bells for anyone?
