    Arthur Chu Retweeted Tom Flamson

    I love that podcast Aimee Mann did chatting with Rebecca Sugar about the art of songwriting And throwing this subtle shade "You realize no one ever says 'tonic and gin', and the reversal doesn't actually have any artistic meaning It's just what we call a 'cram'"https://twitter.com/TJFlamson/status/1385412361477967879 …

    Tom Flamson @TJFlamson
    I hate this song with the heat of a 1000 suns so I always gotta boost American Pie hate. And then add my own: Rye is a kind of whisky, Don, you smug little asshole. It's like saying "drinking milk and skim"! What the hell?! Fucking boomers https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1385411241481367553 …

        "You just switched it around to make it rhyme It's really awkward and obvious, but, you know, some people get away with that and still get thought of as geniuses"

        "And what you learn as you evolve as a songwriter is to try to avoid that To go back in the editing process and try to take all of those out, or at least not make them so obvious Out of respect for your audience, even if the people in charge of radio airplay don't seem to care"

        Replying to @arthur_affect

        I mean Aimee Mann is obviously a genius but I think she’s wrong on this one. The reversal puts emphasis on gin, at the end of the line, and the point is not just the alcoholism but the kind of alcoholism for which mixers are the barest fig leaf.

        Replying to @disappearinjon @arthur_affect

        I guess she is wrong in that the line from American Pie is even worse than she's making it out to be because it's like saying "Drinking gin and dry gin"

        Oh wow, which podcast is this? I love Aimee Mann (and she and her husband are both phenomenal songwriters).

        I think a Mr Joel would have something to say about that, but he’s crashed his car into a gazebo and is unavailable for comment
