“Years ago I was in a band called Two Lane Blacktop - we deliberately named ourselves after the 'Two-Lane Blacktop' movie, 'cuz it's a car chase movie. All our songs were based on movies, every single song. I love movies, and that was something that me and the singer in Two Lane Blacktop bonded over - we were design students together, we did a film-class together, so we became obsessed with movies. It's followed me around ever since then, it's a constant theme.” YearsTwoTogetherFilmSongClassCarDesignStudentsBandYears AgoConstantSingersObsessedThemeLanesCuzMovie Love Author:Ladyhawke
“I remember writing a song when I was about 15. This is the one I can remember. I know I'd been writing poetry for a long time, since I was about eight, but I remember my first one that I put to chords. I was really trying to be like the psychedelic era Beatles, I was obsessed. All I could think about was Beatles and Hendrix. So I tried to write a psychedelic song, and it was the worst. I couldn't even... If I read it now - I still have the book somewhere - it makes me cringe out loud. It was just about psychedelic stuff.” IfsThinkingKnowsWritingTryingFirstsLongStillsI CanBookRememberSongStuffWorstLong TimeEightErasLoudObsessedChordsPsychedelicWriting PoetryHendrixCringe Author:Ladyhawke
