Q: or do you just see something basic or perhaps interesting outside and make a song about that?
A: that's also an option. I should mention: it's 2 different activities, starting songs and writing them. i can come up with starting ideas for songs all day and put them into the list, but it's an entirely different activity to take responsibility for finishing one. and i mostly only do that after i know it's been selected to also be the next one to be produced into a recording and video
