Who I Want To Write Songs Like

Leonard Cohen and Nick Cave
for their poetry

Sly Stone and Harry Angus
for their musicality

Amy Winehouse and Clare Bowditch
for their honesty

Tom Waits and Butterfingers
for their humour

Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers
for their unhampered cool-ness

All of the Beatles
for all of the above.

What I Actually Write Songs Like

    How amazing are their jingles personally I like to imagine that there is some guy down in the Gong probably living in one of the nicer suburbs sitting in his garage composing jingles each one worse than the last to see how long he can get away with it!

    Sadly I can't find a good example of one on youtube sure this is a hidden sub culture just waiting to be exploited on the internet.

    I'll leave you with this instead gem instead
