Kanan #258: My Passion Put to Song
Player
Hmmm…
Kanan
Wow, that's a pretty scrunched up face you're making. Something the matter?
Player
Oh, Kanan! You are exactly who I needed to see!
Player
I'm trying to write some lyrics for a new song, but they just don't quite feel right… Could you tell me your thoughts on them?
Kanan
Sure thing. Lemme see here… Hm, hm, hm.
Player
What do you think? Don't hold back. I wanna hear your totally honest opinion.
Kanan
You sure you want that? It might be pretty brutal.
Player
I… I'm positive!
Kanan
Well then, here goes. These lyrics are packed full of your love for Nijigasaki.
Kanan
But it's hard to really see what's most important to you in here.
Player
What do you mean?
Kanan
I mean, you want to bring out the best in everyone. You want to try new things. You want to make your audience happy.
Kanan
You have so many things you're trying to say that it's diluting your actual message.
Kanan
I think you should have a look inside yourself and try to collect your thoughts.
Player
You think that will help…?
Kanan
Sure do. I know it's tough, but it's the only way to fix this.
Player
(Maybe she's right… Maybe I'm not feeling these lyrics because I'm not even sure what my true feelings are.)
Player
(Maybe I can't express what I care about most because I don't even know what it is.)
Player
Thanks, Kanan. I think I see a way to fix this now. I'm gonna give it another go!
Kanan
Sounds good. I know you can do it. And that's coming from me, so you know it's true!
Player
It definitely gives me a lot of confidence hearing you say it. I can always count on you. Thank you for everything!
Kanan
Oh geez, now you're gonna make me blush. Oddly enough, I was always tearing my hair out over this kinda stuff when I was writing lyrics too.
Player
Hey, Kanan?
Option 1: “Will you write lyrics again?” |
---|
Player Will you ever write lyrics again? I'd love to read them if you do. Kanan There's a question. I haven't really written any lately, but… Kanan I was actually just thinking I kinda wanted to write some. Player Seriously?! Then let's write! I just know you can come up with something incredible! Kanan Thanks. I'll let you see 'em when I'm done. I hope you'll be just as brutally honest with me too, 'cause I think you'd be an amazing brainstorming partner. Let's do this! |
Option 2: “I'd love to see some lyrics you've written someday.” |
Player Could I see some of your lyrics? I'd really love to see what you've written. Kanan N-No way! Player Huh? Why not? Kanan I mean, it's embarrassing to look at your old stuff, you know? I'm just gonna be cringing over every little mistake. Kanan If I'm gonna show you my lyrics, I want it to be something recent. I want you to see what I can do now! Player Wait, does that mean…? Kanan Uh-huh! I'm gonna write some lyrics! Seeing you work so hard has me totally fired up now! |
