Just Like Aerosmith – Don’t Miss A Thing.

Digital Vacation Day 2

IT'S HARD TO SAY EXACTLY WHERE IT CAME FROM...

I couldn’t say for sure where this song came from. All I know is that I heard a song at the gym, knew I wanted to write something like it and called the producer. I didn’t actually finish the song with that producer, but we did talk about it.

It was summer – I wrote a lot of the song at home and recorded a demo of it. The process looked like the picture from my porch here. Then I would give the song a test run (literally) by putting in some earbuds and jogging down the street.

The idea for T-Shirt started at the gym. So I knew it had to be something I could "run" with. Literally. So I tested the energy of the song while running in the morning. The song isn't specific - but it beats like your heart when you have a good time at the beach with someone you care about.

At the time, I was doing all of my music creation in the basement of the house I lived in. It was dark. In the winter it was too cold and in the summer it was too hot.

At this time I bought an Ableton loop pad just to experiment with. T-Shirt was the first song I programmed into it.

I wanted to film a flashy and sexy video… But since I wrote all of the song in the dark basement next to a laundry room, and the song was called “T-Shirt,” I figured it was only fair that I make the video right here in my basement.

LYRICS

I found a t-shirt that I never use
Stopping the drafts in my bedroom,
Okay fine it’s just a moment in time but it’s mine
A moment in time…

Spend my last 12 dollars,
Band shirt with a v-neck collar
Cheap pizza on the hood of the car,
Okay fine it’s just a moment in time but it’s mine
A moment in time…

I’ll tell you the truth
Watch yourself after every individual use,
You said you wanna
Spend the rest of your life there,
But then it got here,

Hello, forever 16,
Hello, recycled catchphrase,
Out of context, out of mind,

I’ll meet you at the crowded beach,
We’ll find a park bench far from everything,
Okay fine it’s just a moment in time but it’s mine
A moment in time…

Watch yourself after every individual use,
You said you wanna
Spend the rest of your life there,
But then it got here,

Throw reason to the wind,
with my t-shirt in the sand,
And we’ll come and go with the ebb and flow,
Pick you up, wet, damp and cold
Okay fine it’s just a moment in time but it’s mine
A moment in time…

Watch yourself after every individual use,
You said you wanna
Spend the rest of your life there,
But then it got here,
