| + | more fun with modulation. i wrote the chords around 7pm tonight when i finished work. i was still messing around with modulating between Aminor/Cmajor and Cminor/Eflat major. For the words I did a little free writing and eventually hit on the word decline, then stars misalign, then the idea for a love story in reverse. once i had that in mind the words came pretty quickly. this performance is pretty shaky, but its late and i feel bad playing the song anymore tonight.

| + | holy cow. these changes are just blowing my mind. i have always been really afraid to wander too far from the key i start in, but this stuff is an awesome! it's so... linear! the effect it has on me is one i didn't expect, which is that i have to listen closer, more carefully when i realize i can't take the resolutions for granted. it puts me on edge a little, actually. i'm such a pop softie that when you resolve stuff in weird ways it throws me. i'm going to have to go home and play this. what's really interesting is that i think this is catchy, i mean the melody is really nice. but it's catchy once removed or something. like, you can't commit it to memory on a first listen because it does unexpected things. but i think once i can get this into my head, it'll be especially hard to get out. in part because of that extra listening i'll have had to do. fascinating!
