Noel, I think we've said this before but your songs remind us a LOT of Paul McCartney's songs....not the hard rocking Paul but the ones more like "Your Mother Should Know" from Magical Mystery Tour. This song is no exception to that impression. I won't attempt to parse out all the reasons that I think they are similar but overall arrangement and the vocal delivery and the lyric stand out the most.
Suffice it to say that it fills one with joy. What more can you wish for?
I did read your process taken for the writing of the tune. Like you I try and put down ideas initially in the order for which I'd like them to follow. This is sans consideration of rhyme or beat, etc. Often that is a point where I put them aside for a few days and return to often wonder what the heck I was thinking...but sometimes to continue on them.
But our approach is systemically different from that point on because I write the lyric complete with rhymes and sense of meter but Janice develops the chord structure and melody on her own. Sometimes I'll rough out an idea for the chords but all of that is pretty much her bailiwick. And for that I am lucky!
Regardless, it was fascinating to be along for that journey regarding the development of the song. Thanks hugely for taking the time to do that and again for the wonderful song.
Your attention to all the aspects of songwriting and the ensuing arrangement and production is unsurpassed.
We continue to enjoy our listens.
