Thunder - behind the lyrics

Image
Hello! Isabelle here. Just wanted to share a little bit about our song Thunde r from the lyrical perspective.  The lyrics for Thunder were born from an idea sparked at my studio at the shop, the hum of the sewing machine plain to hear in the backdrop of my original voice memo. “I’m feeling you, it’s coming through like thunder” I've often found that as I sew or iron away my mind can drift off into analyzing conversations and moments that have been caught in my head. Last summer we were in the process of moving from our home of 24 years and I realize that I was kind of saying goodbye to that place. It had always been such a safe, protective and creative space. It was like losing a friend. The same as with friendship there is an ebb and flow as we need it and it’s okay when things change, in fact it’s completely natural.

I made sure to capture the rough idea, but we put it aside for a little bit so that we could focus on the other song, Please . I knew there was something cool about it because it seemed so simple and direct. It lived under the working title "Kinks Idea" for a couple months (just to give you an concept of how it sounded originally); almost like a punk song. However, my version of Punk Rock has always been tainted by New Wave , so I question if I could write a true Punk...
