Okay to i used play bass in this band called yuck. Well before they got famous obviously and i was doing a lot of regretting and feeling bad about myself because all my dreams were shattered (playing awesome melodic punk rock as a bassist with my brother). So anyway there has been a lot of confidence rebuilding in my life. Id often say to myself 'this sucks' or 'i hate myself'. So yeah anyway recently I was reading this book called 'the secret' and it was saying that you could create your reality with words so if you say 'i hate myself' over and over again it actually becomes true and you manifest hate to yourself. Like for instance if your friend told you every day that they loved you you would feel love right? and you'd feel happy! Whereas if they said I hate you every day you might just start feeling bad. ANyway i've been trying this out and being careful with my words and saying stuff like 'I LOVE MYSELF' 'EVERYTHING IS PERFECT' 'I LOVE THE WORLD' THE UNIVERSE LOVES ME' 'I AM HAPPY' etc. this is the tried an tested technique of positive affirmations. I haven't got clear examples of this working but one day I was like I HAVE A MILLION POUNDS! and I ended up in this conversation with this dude who literally did have this million pound app for iphone. Anyway I kind of stopped saying the million pounds thing the next day but maybe if i continued? :)
anyway it got me thinking
so yeah max bloom has this song on the new yuck album which is like 'I HATE MYSELF' and he repeats it quite a lot. ANd its an awesome song. And I bet loads of people will be like 'yeah thats so cool cos he's being so real and honest about stuff'.
But Im thinking if he keeps saying he hates himself he's just gonna get really depressed. And this mantra is just gonna seep into everyones brains and make them feel depressed.
So this is a call to max and other things along these lines.
CHANGE THE LYRICS TO I LOVE MYSELF!
ps. I love your music and i love you
i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you, i love you
