FAWM: "I've Got an Idea"

I've Got an Idea

Liner Notes

Not sure if this one is for the concept album or not. Lyrically, it wasn't written that way, but there's a vibe which makes it fit.

So, this song began life as two little acoustic guitar-led bits I had - the main chords and tune came from "idea song, Aug 2024", and the middle part I wrote at 5.42am in November last year when I couldn't get back to sleep...

Obviously the enormous crescendo came later. No one's writing that at 5.42am.

Drums: SD3 / Fields of Rock
Bass: Kontakt Punkbass
Guitar: Danelectro '59 through Tonex
Synths: Kontakt Cloud Supply, Omnichord, ARP Odyssey

Lyrics

i've got an idea
i've got an idea, yeah
i've got an idea
how do i know it's my idea?
i know it's never been clear

i've got an idea, yeah
how do i know it's my idea?
and not a random veneer

i've got an idea
or was it the computer? yeah
i've got nothing but fear

i've got an idea, yeah
how do i know it's my idea?
and not a quantum frontier

a random veneer
a quantum frontier

i've got an idea
how do i know it's my idea?
i know it's never been clear

love this big sound. I can relate as I think most creators can. one time I thought I came up with a great chord progression and then I was like "oh thats sexy Sadie by the Beatles"

cool production!
