Recap: Ephemeral Eventuality, Nothing Left to Say, Requiem

 The last 3 of my labels to go semi-recap.

Ephemeral Eventuality, as far as i can tell was for late 2010-2013. It refers to the concept that everything eventually fades away. Especially love/relationships.  Composed of pretend concept albums: Inertia, Songs for the Girl I Never Met, Sound of Silence and Ephemeral Eventuality.

Nothing Left to Say, looks to be a one day burst period in 2015. There aren't even any unwritten. i seem to have lost any ability i had after Ephemeral Eventuality (maybe before then, if i ever had any).

Requiem is basically the catch all for anything past Nothing Left to Say. 2023 and later. This will be the last tag i use for "songs" (barring a series of miracles). Maybe i can find the inspiration to fake a few more "songs", but i don't have much, if anything, left in me. Sometimes stuff pops into my head at random though. One of the the last ones i tried, i waited too long and forget where i was going with it.

i don't know that i have actually ever really "lived". We're talking one "going steady" college relationship and one college frequent hang out/two "pity" dates (unfortunately never going anywhere) relationship years apart. See Senior and Older Stuff.  Yes, i would have married any woman i've ever dated (and some i didn't). i don't drink or drive, so that rules out most country songs. Never had many friends, just acquaintances.

Ok my "method". Usually, a burst of potential song titles and maybe a few lines (concept stage). Inspiration of ideas from new albums, TV shows or movies. Then i went into burst writing mode, usually producing a bunch at a time (usually a 1–3 day period). Some of these are more forced than others. i don't try to reuse the same lines, but i'm sure i have. Sometimes i don't write all the "songs" based off the titles, sometimes i pushed them to another group when i wrote them (concept dates much different than written date).
