The Phrasing Didn't Work As Well.

I'm Laying Out My Winter Clothes And Wishing I Was Gone, Going Home, Where The New York City Winters Aren't Bleedin' Me.

Maybe I Think Too Much For My Own Good.

I Sort Of Recognize It, As Opposed To Shaping It. Oh, That's A Good Idea, That's A Good Line. I Wonder Where I Can Use That. And When You Get Into A Rhyme Group Like 'not,' You Got A Lot Of Rhymes, You Got A Lot Of Choices. The More You Do It, The Luckier You Get.

We Got On American Bandstand, Where Kids Would Dance To A Record And Then Rate It. We Called Ourselves Tom And Jerry. I Was Jerry.

Instead Of Thinking In Terms Of Chords, I Think Of Voice-leading; That Is, Melody Line And Bass Line, And Where The Bass Line Goes. If You Do That, You'll Have The Right Chord. [these Voices] Will Give You Some Alternatives, And You Can Play Those Different Alternatives To Hear Which One Suits Your Ear. Keep The Bass Line Moving So You Don't Stay In One Spot: If You Have An Interesting Bass Line And You Roll It Against The Melody, The Chords Are Going To Come Out Right.
