Each week on SSW we ask our guests to do a song breakdown of one of our favorite songs of theirs. The origin stories of these songs are often hilarious, sometimes sad, and always a cool glimpse into the brain of a songwriter. This week we decided to do a few song breakdowns of our own. From inspiration, writing, and recording all the way to how we feel about the songs now. Sign up for our Patreon @songwritingsavestheworld for more song breakdowns from our super lovely guests and tune into Episode 28 of Songwriting Saves the World with ya girls, Sasha and Annick!
