God, I feel this. It seems that the days just get fuller and fuller, even though in principle I have less to do at the mo. Weird... So yeah, this is the theme tune for the way I'm feeling right now;)

Great funky beat here and groove. Lyrically a fun and funny exploration of the creative process (I definitely feel these lyrics hard, I call it "productive procrastination"). The basswork here is my favorite part, that lends itself to the funk, but the programmed drums are a close second. 3rd and 4th stanza take things more political/current, but rolls back into working on the 5th. Nice line on ended with a snap when going for a bend; happened to me recently trying to string a guitar up for Nashville tuning. Nice work!

Man I love FAWM because it is a great opportunity to check out not only other people's writing styles, but their production styles as well. It's crazy how many tools are out there that enable people to develop songs with vastly different tonal qualities. You have sounds in this song that I would have no idea how to even begin to replicate. Really nicely done.

Lyrically, I really like the hook "I've got too much to do to be doing stuff." I resolves nicely in a way that kind of sticks in your head. Really cool track man! #tit4tat

Great! Hints of Thomas Dolby in there. Time I wheeled out my bass...

Really dig this tune, got a New Wave vibe, kinda Oingo Boingo-ish. Really cool.

Whoa! Absolutely love this. Getting Lodger-era Bowie vibes. The slap bass drives things along nicely, and the vocal delivery / lyrics encapsulate the overwhelm… Absolute belter.

yes, the funk is strong in this one! it's a miracle it got done though :) tantalizing ambiguity to the title and cool commentary on the state of things. so you're saying not to expect too much from retirement then?

Super first line (and first verse). Also like that "unanticipated/complicated" rhyme. I dig the bass-driven groove too

Entropy is definitely escalating! You definitely got the funk! Being retired is hard work isn't it? And why is everything breaking?

Funny opening line that sets the tone for the rest of the tune. I like the funky bass on what is (to me) otherwise a rock song. I can't put my finger on it, but Peter Gabriel comes to mind.

The interesting part of these lyrics is that they could also relate to some neurospicy condition. The bass line on the chorus is soooo funky and great. Cool rhythms.

Cool, funky, groovy! Very driving song

This is great. Love the funk and the underlying synth twinkles are the late organ are great. This is fantastic and I enjoyed it from start to finish. I retired in October 2024 and up to a week ago was totally preoccupied with a pressing family issue. Able to move forward now. Before I retired people kept asking me if was going to bored. To which I unequivocally responded, no.

Never enough time at the speed it goes, lyrics sum up the feeling well, that bass has some solid slaps!

The first time I heard a retired person say, "I don't know where I ever found time for work," I didn't understand. Now I do.

Good sound. The various tones in that bass have a life of their own. 😀

Relatable, yes! So much to do that I'll probably do none of it... Nice rhythm to this.

Mmm, I like the groove. And I can totally relate to the lyrics 😀

Holy balls I feel seen here. Can relate definitely. Love the write and the production here! This is good stuff man!

Now that's a great way to get a song idea to happen. Look what it turned into! Gotta love how magical the process can be

Great tones on that bass and those drums. Both key to this track!

Ah big smile. Stuff to do is like gas, expanding to fill the space available, but some of it is more toxic than other sectors. Grind culture and social media, bread-stealing circuses of the "elite"soap opera: not a happy pincer movement or set of horns to be on. But if you can happily potter doing a mix of things valuable to you. That's winning. That's resistance. In some ways.

I much switch a few things on, see if it can do anything for me. Controlled angst is often interesting as it is here! I have a hunch you will always find busy!

I like this one, the sound design gives me the sensation that you are trapped on a can, which I think goes well with the song.

Nice delivery there bud! Shades of Marilyn Manson?

The struggle is real. I’m hearing some “The The” in this. As artists, we need a lot more downtime to create. Every time I’m away from work, other stuff fills this essential time. Good start!
