Matty Healy said that he just wants to make pop music because everyone likes to listen to catchy tunes. for a long time i was a broke songwriter for indie bands coming up with the most obtuse chord progressions and melodies and that led me to be burnt out and feel undervalued, to feel like every thing i heard wasn’t real “art”. took months off, and my mentors from the amazing song festivals i’d attended prior all said “have you ever tried just sitting down and having fun?” tried it. love it.
