The Echoing Green Quotes
While the music has changed alot since then, I'd say my approach has only changed a little. Some things haven't changed at all, like the fact that I always write the music first, then the lyrics. Sometimes I'll come the title while I'm writing the music and kinda use it as an artistic outline. Take "Supernova" for instance. I came up with title write off the top, and the music, quite intentionally, has an "explosive" feel - or at least that's what we shot for. All that said, I still only take that approach occasionally. I don't really have an exact method... I just do it. I wish I did it more often, though - I'm a bit of a slow songwriter.

The Echoing Green" is a song/poem from William Blake. (Depending on where you look, the "echoing" is spelled "ecchoing".) It's a beautiful little poem that tells of a place where people really tasted life.
