Easy humming
You’ve got a tune for every night and day
Voice at the ready when you work out what you’re gonna say
You hear the drumming
The bass anticipating every bar
Some slippery figures ringing out on a lead guitar
It feels good when things come easy, like a breezy day in the yard
Does it feel better when the things you really want come hard?
Lazy strumming
You’re feeling glum, ‘cause the words won’t come — your mind feels numb
Thoughts scattershot; no cookies, only crumbs
Ringing your own doorbell
But there’s no answer from the sonneteer
No help is coming, so you’ve just gotta persevere
It feels good when things come easy, but sometimes you’ve got to push on through
Whether there’s a happy ending might be up to you
Or maybe that is just untrue
Depending on your point of view
[instrumental]
It feels good when things come easy, like a breezy day in the yard
Does it feel better when the things you really want come
It might feel better when the things you really want come
Feels even better when the things you really want come hard

Day Dreems Portland, Oregon
Pop songs from an alternative past? But, like, brand new.
Day Dreems recommends:
When I wrote these songs, I didn’t have a band. I invited every musician I could think of to come learn them for a show in three weeks, and we ended up making a record!
go to album
This is the first EP from The Zags. My three songs on here (It’s Over, Red-Eyed Dawn, and Tattoo) are some of my all-time favorites.

“Slow Sundown” is a bewitching record, haunted by the ghosts of Mazzy Star and Cowboy Junkies.

Sparkling synthpop with an emphasis on high-wattage chords and the kind of melodies that burrow themselves deep in the brain.

Wildly uncategorizable music from Cardiff full of fat synths, blissful vocal harmonies and hard-hitting beats.
