Hi Joice,

Haha don't worry you lose no credibility with the repetition of adjectives, as long as they're nice ones. wink

I never considered the effect that the song's pacing has on the lyric, and will listen with this in mind, you may have a point! It would be an insight that would help me plot future songs. I was thinking, "make it feel like the beach...slowed down a bit, sensual..." and I realized that my idea of "the beach" is completely different than Brian Wilson's, whose beach oriented songs all seem more happy than sexy...but then, this is about the singer's state of mind, and needing to escape into a memory of "being with her on the beach" ...so it's more complicated than Mr. Wilson's, for the most part.

Yes! Subliminal and abstract, the 'story' comes across, I think, too!

Thanks, Joice!

Mike
