  • I wrote this original song in early 2023. I wrote the melody and chords first, capturing them in a short-hand music notation, known as a lead sheet. But I had no words, nor an idea what the song should be about.
    A few weeks later, I found myself absent-mindedly humming the song, then singing it with a few words, including the phrase: "Won't you be my sweet pea." Taking that phrase as a "prompt" (which is well know method in song writing), I concocted a story and scenario, after which the rest of the words were easy to fill in.
    So, all my songs have different origin stories. This one started with a melody without words. Others start with words, a chord progression, a beat, etc.
