No, this isn’t “Song #2” by the acclaimed 90’s Brit-Pop group Blur. Not at all. This is simply the second of my weekly installments. It’s officially called “The Pro In Procrastination” because who can’t relate to that? I don’t know if I want to be friends with folks who can’t relate. I’d rather wait to be friends with them when they get around to relating.
I just realized while typing the lyrics that “Call Me By My Name” is a Lil’ Nas X song. There is also a movie called “Call Me By Your Name” that I haven’t seen. There is no connection to either, I thought it was an interesting phrase that matched the syllables of the song. What does it even mean? Please don’t sue me Mr. Nas X / movie company.
I was talking to somebody recently about this thing I’m doing, and explained my typical songwriting process. I mentioned that I’d post the original Voice Memo/”Mumble Jam” for the next song. Unfortunately, I can’t find the “Mumble Jam” for this one. I think I just remembered this song and recorded it. Which is highly unusual. Next time (hopefully).
