I was watching some poker game on TV and the announcer said "That's like sugar and salt," but I think he meant to say bitter-sweet or sweet and sour, or something in that vein. I'm not sure "sugar and salt" is an actual saying. But it did strike me that it might make a good song, so I went ahead and wrote something with that as the theme.

A song about a guy who lives in Texas but can't travel anywhere without remembering just how broken his life is without his woman. Everything he loved about the state has now changed. This is a very region-specific song that most won't get unless they're familiar with Texas.

A musician falls in love with a girl, and his dream is to travel around and play his music. The girl in this story needs to stay put for her life. Her wants her to go, she wants him to stay. So they end up parting ways. It ends up being something the guy just can't get over in the end. A more poetic take I tried on a classic love song, instead of the same cookie-cutter words and themes.

A lot is said about love at first sight, and fools rushing in, etc. Though millions upon millions of people do hit it off right away, and they don't need to date a lot to fall in love. This is a song about a guy who falls in love with a girl on the first date and wants to be with her. Of course, change some pronouns around and it can work for anyone.

Topic(s): It works in a team/relationship, even if sometimes it looks like giving up on our own selves. Permanent self doubts ending in harmonic optimism. Atmosphere: fast, happy, euphoric, to pogo or dance on, breaking through, pushing forward, eventually scream, loud, wild Genre/Style I was thinking of: Indi-Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Indi-Electronic, Alternative, Alternative Rock Artist(s) I was thinking of: Friska Viljor, Phil Might Leave, Mando Diao, Kings of Leon, Ezra Furman, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Milky Chance... Comments: Typical pop structure. Pre-Chorus & Outro. Outro can come fluently after the chorus & can be repeated multiple times, so that phrases will sound the opposite way around: It works out if we believe, in same rhythms, that we breathe..... So, it can end on "breathe".
