Liner Notes

This song is for the #CommentsFirst challenge (https://write.fawm.org/forums/3025). It was written based on the first few comments it received. This take is very rough but I have other things I need to do today.

One day, I will see Sacramento based experimental hip-hop group Death Grips.

Lyrics

Counting sheep never did that much for you
You want something real

You want to get punched in the face
By someone with really cool hair
You want to feel joy
In the jagged sounds of anger and despair

This pillow's far too soft for you
You want something rough
Against your head

You want to belt gibberish
That means something to you
You want to be the happiest,
Most annoying guy in the room

Better get some rest kid,
One day you'll see Death Grips
Get that golden ticket
And it will smell like piss and vomit

Forget what all your friends did (it goes it goes)
You got to see Death Grips (it goes it goes)

It goes it goes it goes...

The first line was absolutely awesome, and then you crashed out another great one: "You want to get punched in the face - by someone with really cool hair " What a lyric, I have a lot of fun. For some reason this reminds me a lot of Radiohead... maybe it's that strange vibe?

@soyr 2w

wow just immediately the guitar hits you and its so cool and then the chord progession just continues to be intriguing and a little dissonant

@finniestone 2w

This is soooo good Henry! I love the percussive elements in the pauses, really moves the song and makes it super interesting!

@alicelimoges 2w

Wow, I love what you did with this! Such a. Unique and amazing sound.

@complexissimple 2w

I think you invented a new kind of lullaby.

My favorite part is the key changes bringing the pitch down, rather than up like you would expect there.

Good body percussion too. Way to make the most of the pauses!

@alicelimoges 2w

That was so precious 🥹
