Thanks for coming back to be a guest ...Hey, Jenny!<br /><br />Thanks for coming back to be a guest judge this round! Sorry this song didn't quite hit you where you wanted it to. :-) Since you asked a couple of questions, I'll answer your questions a little, but I appreciate you thinking so deeply into my song and my songwriting.<br /><br />You asked, "WHY is Bigfoot such a special secret for the narrator?" The answer is actually no more deep or complex than just -- "He's Bigfoot. And he doesn't really want that fact spread around too broadly..." :-)<br /><br />You asked, "What's really at stake when Bigfoot moves on?" Well -- that actually goes toward the sentence you wrote before that. There really (to my mind) ISN'T anything "deeper there than just playing hide-and-seek." This character (who, even though I "sing" him in the first-person in the song, I'll address in the third person here -- 'cause he's not me -- I don't live in Ohio, thank you...) has a life and a job and stresses and stuff. And when it gets to be "too much to handle," he escapes. He hangs out with his friend. They run and splash and play (and sing) -- it's like he gets to be a kid again, for a short time. Then -- when his "batteries are recharged" -- he goes back to his grown-up life and picks everything back up again. That's it. Just simple and straightforward. (Although I can't blame you for looking for more depth or layers or subtext in my songs -- goodness knows I've done plenty of THAT over the years...) :-)<br /><br />As for hearing songs from me that DON'T rhyme so perfectly -- the best you're going to get is http://happinessboard.com/This_Song_Doesnt_Rhyme.html -- if you're waiting for anything more, I wouldn't hold your breath... :-)<br /><br />And as for "more heart" -- since you kind of just "dropped in" to guest-judge this round, I don't know if you've been keeping up on the earlier rounds of ST6 or not. Do either http://happinessboard.com/The_Death_of_a_Meme.html or http://happinessboard.com/%28Vows%29.html approach this ideal?<br /><br /><br />Anyway -- thanks so much again. Best of luck with your new album!<br /><br />:-)<br /><br />EdricEdric Haleenhttp://happinessboard.com/Edric_Haleen.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
