this is such a compelling song, somewhat autobiographical of Townsend's growth into the musician he is"When you sing to your mum, and you hum and you croon And she says that she'd like it "with more of a tune" And you smash your guitar at the end of the bed Then you stick it together and start writing again" and his feelings on his art"You must really have something Jumping, thumping, fighting, hiding away important to say"...his frustrations, his views on celebrity "But is that what you want, to be rich and be gone?"...it's a great song about being an artist and a rockstar
