The driving situation was unfortunate, for there was this song blossoming in my head - fantastic development of verses and chorus - but the priority of getting to the hospital 25 miles away effectively erased all but a foggy memory of it. I could probably work on retrieving it... When it happens in bed, normally half awake, I get the guitar out and manuscript, pencil and eraser and keep at it, playing and writing it down (as quietly as possible for the neighbour's sake). No idea where those songs come from. I don't believe in God, but I do believe in developing a vocabulary - as in language and Art, practice and familiarity sets the brain free to pull all that you know, all that fluency into new and exciting shapes.

Every now and then a little nugget – sometimes a song in its entirety – just drops out. But it is so nebulous, and for me, if I don't somehow capture it outside my brain right away, it's gone forever and just leaves kind of an aftertaste of brilliance. I hate when that happens!!
