25 Bad Songs: 6a. "How It Started (Virginia Woolf)‪"‬ Art In All Its Forms

NOTE: If you’d like to skip my commentary and go straight to the song, go to 2:01. However, I do suggest listening to the whole episode!
Thanks for tuning into the fifth episode of “25 Bad Songs,” an Art In All Its Forms podcast series where I write 25 songs — one song a week — and show you how I did it.
Today’s song, “How It Started (Virginia Woolf),” tells a story of a relationship beginning and how two people can build the foundation for a connection that lasts.

Lyrics so far:
Verse 1She read Virginia WoolfSitting on a chair in the back of the courtyardLike it was a room of her own A room of her ownAnd that was all it tookFor me to knock on her imaginary doorToo soon to knowHow far it would go
Pre-chorusWell it starts with something in commonA book or a movie, a poemThen you’re out to dinner and you’re talkin’Holdin’ your hands while you’re walkin’
And you can’t wait to tell all of your friendsHoly s**t this is happeningTime seems to be moving fasterLet’s take a minute, flash forwardChorusTwenty years later you’re thinking about How it started (x3)Sitting there together and thinking about How it started (x3)
