The Rocketboys – Like Ice in Water
…….…………….……………………….……….……………….………
Brandon Kinder to Recycled Love Songs on the track “Like Ice in Water“:
“This was the very first song we wrote for 20,000 Ghosts. I was having a lot of trouble writing any songs for the album–almost like writers block–there was nothing coming out that I felt good about.
One day while I was recording on someone else’s project at a studio I was worked at, I texted a local friend in Austin who is a singer-songwriter and said ‘I’m having a lot of trouble writing these songs, feeling so empty.
Her response was; you’re not empty, you’re just collecting.
Which is a statement that really stuck out to me. I kept thinking about it. Profound, really.
So, ‘Like Ice in Water’ is really a song about trying to write a song and not being able to.”
