A little info on Songs For Jess 3 + title revealing


Songs for Jess 3
And suddenly in between pulling together hand-written material
from the last year and saving into the computer, as well as
sketching on new material at the speed of light, combined with
some sort of schoolworkat daytime, the time has finally come
to deliver a tease.

This time it's about the final full-fledged
project in what have been mentioned and referred to as the
"songs for Jess"-series. Where the first one was a quick compilation,
written in a few days, and the second was a small thing that
got bigger and bigger, the third one is best described as a
single disc, with one foot in the past, and one foot in the
future.

I will try not to sound too emotional now, seems like it's
enough to just quote a song title off swedish pop group
Roxette, simply saying "Things will never be the same".
Facts remain still though, she had, has and will always have
a special place in me.

Regarding the lyrics, I had - believe it or not - planned to
write completely in swedish. Don't know why or how I got the idea.
Somehow it just felt natural to do at that time.
With more sense, it was scrapped, or at least got put on hold
in favour for even the last shout to be in english.
The music layout remained the same though, the whole record
being built around those smooth, gentle, semi-acoustic tunes
that has sort of become a trademark for me lately.
We'll just have to wait and see what it gives I guess.

Speaking of waiting, onto the subject that this whole
history was written for, the title of the whole thing.
I guess the lyrics will be a bit delayed in uploading,
simply because I have a lot of catching up to do.
I can happily say that I'm working on it though.
So without anymore waiting, here it goes.
The title for the last project (for now at least),
will be some sort of a "novelty" one. Or what about
"Moving on with half a heart missing". Of course
the "songs for Jess"-prefix will be included.

Well, that's it I guess.
Back to the drawing board.
Tjing!
