[D]
[G] [C] [D]
[Em] [E] Usually when I write, sometimes I do everything from scratch myself and I have a project set up.
[Em] I always travel with my very tiny studio, which is this keyboard, my microphone [B]
and headphones,
and my duet, like a sound card, or interface, that's the word in English, interface.
And I do some sort of small production [Gm]
and I take it to the Struts, my production team,
and they help me [A] piece it together.
But with Talking Body, for instance, they had a really great track,
or just basically a few chords that I really liked.
I had a verse that sounded like this.
[Eb]
[Ab] [Cm]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Ab] Which is very different from how it turned [Bb] out later on.
[Cm]
[Bb] So they played me the [Ab] track, I came up with this verse, and we [Bb] liked it,
but [C] we didn't really know where to go to the chorus after that.
It just felt really [Ab] like it was hard to find a new [Eb] melody coming [Cm] out of the verse.
[Bb] So I took the [Ab] track with me and I sat down at my little space that I have at home,
it's just like a little corner, when I'm not here, when I'm travelling.
And I worked on it for a bit and I tried tons of different ideas
and I did the first draft for the chorus, which sounds like this.
[Bb]
[Cm] Talking Body
[Eb]
[Ab] [Cm]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Ab] [Bb] [Cm] So it's very nearly there.
[C] [Ab]
I took it to the Struts and they [Bb] listened and they loved it,
and they were like, [C] ok, we need to change this [Cm] around, it's something,
[Bb] let's repeat [C] the part where, for example, where I go
[N]
Listen to me breathe, you got me coming, going.
So instead of just letting that little piece of melody go, Ludwig, one of the guys,
said that you should really repeat that section, so it becomes
Listen to me breathe, na na na, on and on and on.
After he came up with that idea, I said that's great, now I'm going to write the lyrics.
I wrote the full lyrics first, I had the Talking Body idea,
but then I came up with the
First I had actually, if you fuck me right, we fuck for life.
But I felt that was a little bit too harsh, so I changed it to,
if you love me right, we fuck for life.
After that we kind of felt like we had the whole body of the song,
it was there, it was just something that really didn't feel fully 100%,
so we took the song up a few keys, just to make it fit my voice better.
And then we kind of
Hang on one second, I just need to find where it's at now.
[G] There we go.
So we brought [C] it kind of up to here.
[D] [Em] [D] So [G] you can hear there's a lot more [C] push in my voice,
which makes it [E] feel like a better chorus.
But then we realised the old verse didn't really [D] work,
[G]
[Em] because that became a different kind of key level for me,
and it didn't sound as good with the chorus.
So then we wrote the verse, and then we had the song.
So it's a lot of [E] work [D] behind four minutes.
[C] [D] [Em] [D]
