about

a song about erik sanden's voice.

lyrics

why do i hate my own voice?
why do i loathe it so?

is the voice a reflection of the soul?
and if so does my feeble throat mean my soul is weak?
is it a tunnel to what makes us unique?
my voice my little voice

i always loved john lennon’s voice the best
once i could finally hear the difference from paul or george
later on other voices came to me:
ray davies, gord downie, lou reed, neko case
i’d give my right leg to sing like that

on stage i joked about getting a voice transplant
ho ho ho very funny

so here we are now faced with a choice:
love yerself or don’t
but to love yerself you got to love yer voice
and make it sing

i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice
i love my voice

sing it enough times and you’ll believe it
repeat it repeat it

love me love me love me love me
