I Lost Sight
I wanted to start off with a slow jam. Lyrically it’s about losing sight of what’s important in life and the realization that not everybody is against me.

9 To 5IVE
I was trying to capture sonically the dread of waking up Monday and going to your 9 to 5. But in a catchy way, kind of like the “Love is a Battlefield” of 9 to 5 life.

The Art of Compromise
This song is about my chronic fear of growing old. There’s actually a clinical term for it, Gerascophobia.

Radio Ending
This thematically set the tone which carries over to the cover art and press photo. It’s a song about the eminent demise of radio and also a reference to the good old fashioned song fade out.

Why Can’t it Be Easy
I started this after geeking out over Thin Lizzy and their duel guitar action. I wanted a little of that vibe with my Guitar Playing and also wanted the programmed drums to feel really free and loose so I left the quantize off. The most tedious part was doing a million vocal overdubs of the word WHY on the chorus.

For All Time
I was listening to a lot of Neil Diamond and Blondie when I made this. I think you can hear a bit of that influence.
