Singled Out: The Quick & Easy Boys' Take Your Medicine
. So the song "Take Your Medicine" is at once a happy, dance party song, as well as a personal examination of a relationship with a girlfriend that ended on a sour note. Personally, I was at a pretty low point as my girlfriend had just broken up with me as I returned home from tour. All my lyrics on the album are about dealing with that relationship/break-up, but through pain comes growth, and, in this instance, new songs for the album. The line "So take your medicine�" was the first thing I came up with, and from there the rest just flowed. I finished the chorus, and the verses came just as easily. As the song started coming together, I really wanted to run with the idea of a happy sounding song that was actually quite sad, much like the pop tunes of the '50's and '60's. Vocally, I was trying to go for a Levi Stubbs (of the Four Tops) meets Barry Gibb type of feel. After the lyrics were all done, Jimmy helped construct the bridge, we tweaked the form a bit more, and a couple months later we recorded it. Hopefully the song makes you dance and sing along, but more importantly become a fan of the band and see us when we hit a town near you. Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album - right here! Preview and Purchase Quick & Easy Boys CDs Quick & Easy Boys MP3 Downloads |
