This is a song that I know my dad and I would have loved to listen to, if he were still alive. I can imagine us jamming out to it in my parents kitchen, while it plays on their living room stereo, at a volume that is just a little too loud for my mother’s taste, and she makes signals, with her hands over her ears, as if to indicate for us to turn it down, and in defiance, my father, says, “Oh, Mara!”. Then, he would take the veggies he was cutting to grill, and wipe his hands off on his apron, and on his way back, he is doing his funny “dad dance” over to the stereo remote to turn it up a bit louder, as a joke, before he complies, and turns it down, then he dances back to continue making some wonderful dinner. And let’s the full album restart as the 3 of us eat on their back patio, and the weather is perfect. My very funny father loved music, and gave me that gift. And Jack has written a song I know he would have loved, because I would have loved listening to this song with him, as if it had been written and produced some 15 to 20 years ago. And I can easily place it in to my memory palace on some summer evening with ease. This is the first image I saw in my mind when heard it, and I recall it each and every time I hear it comes up in my shuffle.
Facing down your demons and epically winning Jack. Keep going man, this stuff is absolute gold.. dont ever doubt your creativity or EVER compare yourself to other musicians. You are the most talented artist of this decade, dont care what anyone else says.. keep making this pure 🔥 bro
Mara (demon). Mara,in Buddhism, is a malignant celestial king who tried to stop Prince Siddhartha from achieving Enlightenment by trying to seduce him with his celestial Army and the vision of beautiful women who, in various legends, are often said to be Mara's daughters.
