My ode to the fans in the back ♡
lyrics
Quiet kinda night tonight
Only familiar faces, the regulars
And the man in the back said
The man in the back said,
"Play my favorite song of yours"
"Play my favorite song"
"Play my favorite song of yours"
"I know it's your favorite too"
Bit more going on tonight
Birthday crowd came rolling in, it's a Saturday
Where the man in the back gone?
The man in the back gone
I wish the man in the back come back now
He'd say,
"Play my favorite song"
"You don't gotta listen to the fools who
never wanna hear nothing new"
"You ain't a jukebox you ain't a jukebox"
"So play your music!"
"Play my favorite song of yours"
I know I gotta earn the bread somehow someway
So I been giving in a little lately
But every time, every single time
I get caught up singing a song ain't mine
My fingers say, my mind say, my mouth say, my heart say,
"Play my favorite song of mine"
"Play my favorite song"
"Play my favorite song of mine"
I ain't gon listen to the fools who
Never wanna hear nothing new
cuz I ain't a jukebox I ain't a jukebox
I'm gonna play my music
Play my favorite song of mine
And I'm gonna make it your favorite too

- Momma Joan, every step down this road has been made possible by your support. I know the going's been rough, but baby love, I love you so ♡ And thank you to all of my family for never doubting my path for even a second! Arb & Jen, Kiss & Scott, Ronn & Jess, Steve & Dori, you've all only ever wanted the best for me. Thanks for always looking out for me and for giving me the strength to chase my dreams!
- J, Miri, and Kmi for being there from the very, very start at MBC, for helping me through all my wild ups and downs, and for always test-driving my music while it's still in its goofy stage. J, one of your pictures made the cover again! 3 in a row!
- Jason, for your patience with my perfectionism and pessimism. You've been a saint and you are truly a joy to work with. Thank you for believing in this project even years before we ever had the chance to work together! I look forward to more great creative ventures with my favorite Jayce-of-all-trades!
- Andy Reed, for giving us the kick we needed! Your bass-line is PURE GOLD!! And in just a few hours, I learned so much from you!
