Confusion at its finest
This entry is about a song idea Amy and I once had. It’s slightly confusing but I’ll try to explain it the best I can. Some of you may know that there was a time when we wanted to start a band (which would have been difficult since neither of us play any instruments). One night we started discussing what our songs would be about. We wanted to write a song about something we had been through, that way the song would have real meaning. Unfortunately we both have very boring lives, and the only thing we’ve really experienced is going to concerts. But then we realized how weird that would be. Imagine going to a concert and hearing the band playing a song about being at a concert. So if the band was being the audience, that would make the people they were watching the band. Then I had the idea that at some point during the song there should be a part for the audience to sing. So that would make the audience the band, but the band is being the audience. And the band would be watching the audience be the band, which would make the band the audience, but the audience is being the band. So the song would have the band as the audience being the band and the audience as the band being the audience. And if you managed to follow all that I’m amazed. I’m one of the people who thought it up and even I find that explanation confusing. And if you didn’t understand that, don’t worry you’re probably not the only one, and I will happily explain it again to anyone who asks
