Hits

what is a hit? does anyone really know

 is it a formula? i think maybe it is..

i write music all the time that comes from all places.  Strange arrangements and chords i will never know how to play again!

 i wonder if a hit song is a language? 

If originality can be  defined as speaking in one's own language

 is making a hit is it a selfless thing or a totally selfish thing?

that is----> making  a deliberate effort to speak in a language that everyone understands or has been programmed to understand

do you think that is an un-artistic endeavour?

sometimes when i am in my lab-----> and i listen to old recordings that i have never released

things sound so innocent and intelligent when there is no intent

then again

i have had songs on the radio as well..

 and when i listen to those songs i can hear the craftmanship and the understanding of a collective conscious dialect which at first glance may seem impersonal in its swagger

but upon indepth listening comes across  as SO specific mainly  because it is so general in its nature!

 like the rays of the sun

shining on every-one  in the world!

A hit is what makes a person feel i guess or can always put a person in a certain mood like outkast's 'Hey ya' or your 'Flypaper' always put me in a good mood
