Deeper Under

Me, myself and why.

the Pepsodent smile of my life

I think it's awesome to be able to start a blog with a subject like this. Life smiles, and what a Pepsodent smile that is! After yesterday I have basically nothing wrong in my life. You might think: "what the hell is he going to write about if everything's so perfect?", and I might just answer that I sure have things to write about. There are all kinds of deep shit coming up plus photos plus things about my life plus music stuff and so on... I don't know how much you care about them but I want to be able to put out my thoughts faster than making a song for a year and putting my thoughts out via the lyrics.

Who am I? I'm a Finnish soon-17-yo boy. I write love songs and I like sunsets, synth pop, lovey-dovey stuff, catchy choruses, biking, friends, girls lol, beautiful things such as landscapes and artsy photographs and such dull, my dog... I like a lot of things. I like to overthink things to the point I confuse not only myself but everyone involved - and some more. Besides having a dog (that's really not mine anyway) and an iPhone to instagram things, I have a solo (for now) synth pop project called Spark. I'm working with the coolest producer in the world. He's an amazing guy and he's a huge reason for me being able to talk about the next subject...

...which is my new song! I have a single coming out tonite. It's called "Oh These Days". I have been working on it for the last 10 months - since April last year. The song has gone through a number of changes along the way. The lyrics were rewritten in November and I just last week realized how personal they really are. I wrote them about a fictional situation but soon noticed that I have lived a same kind of situation. And after realizing this, I liked to start shortening the story behind the lyrics in a following way: "Oh These Days" is about two people of which the other one fails to see the love that's right around the corner.

And why in hell am I writing in English? Because this is nice. I'm good at writing in Finnish but this feels more natural for me. I write my lyrics in English. That means I open my mind, observe my thoughts and write cool metaphors in English. Of course I have grammar mistakes but who cares? I don't and that's all that matters.

And this post is the famous first post into which you write A LOT - a freaking block of your what-will-i-write crap - and then you stop posting. Let's see what happens in this case. But yeah!

If you are interested in reading my thoughts and learning about this fella right here, you're more than welcome. Yeeeeehaa.
