Song — Betty
May 20th, 2008This song is about a love rectangle. The singer is in love with Betty, she’s in love with a boy who treats her like crap. He is in love with Betty’s rich best friend who treats both him and Betty like crap. Everyone’s pretty much miserable except possibly for the best friend who’s oblivious to people’s feelings.
I had this little chord progression kicking around for awhile, but frankly, you need to be pretty on the ball to change keys between the verse and the chorus in a fluid way. I wouldn’t characterize myself as on the ball, but with some effort my key changing chord progression now mostly conforms to basic pop song parameters. Also, all the parts that rock are thanks to Chris on the bass and guitar. Especially the guitar solo which I adore.

I have created a playlist of all your music. But I want to make sure I maintain your full atistry, down to the song order. Can you please list off the proper order to listen to your songs, as if it were a CD? Thanks.

Was wondering if you could post the lyrics with all your songs? (saw them with 1000 AD but cant find the rest.) I’m hearing impaired and have trouble with them sometimes and find if I can read along it helps immensely. Love your music though!
