Love the ‘share this post with someone who can give Tegan some song writing tips’.
I have to admit I saw the title of the post/email and thought ‘it’s about closer, because of the 10 year anniversary’. Would love a post about heartthrob, all the songs on it and maybe even some heartthrob acoustics?
Tegan, (As I told Sara), my new dog Grover is settling in well (all things considered), he’s mostly lab (and a forth golden retriever) so naturally he eats everything and what he doesn’t eat he licks! Whatever pants I’m wearing get covered in slobber and everything I’m wearing is coverde in black dog fur! As of yesterday I’ve had him 2 weeks and I love him to pieces (despite everything listed above).
Anyway, it was a good and sort of funny post, it would’ve been very funny if it wasn’t as relatable! I get the procrastination, (I mean who doesn’t), I used to be good at not procrastinating and then I became a teenager!
Also what’s this about not writing hit songs? You have! Both of you have! (And are I’m assuming, you have loads of time, but I remember you (Tegan) saying that you wrote stop desire around the same time you were touring for heartthrob (or near the end).
Hope you enjoyed my disjointed comment!
Thanks for the post!

PS: I see you dropping hints about new dates! Fingers crossed tight for Aus! Please do VIP, I want to shout ‘hi’ and have a chance you’ll actually see/hear me. 🤞🇦🇺!
Because Miriam Webster has THIS to say about vacation:
"period of exemption from work."
Anyway, they (Shakespeare I think) say "journeys end in lovers meeting," so the only conclusion here is that in order to end a hit-writing journey successfully you should probably just have lunch with Sofia.
It's not more procrastination if it's what Shakespeare told you to do.
Now I just really wanna watch Pressure Cooker! 😊😂
But yeah, setting aside time to do something productive or creative things is always tricky. And I think this is definitely me in this situation too, the pressure I’d put on myself would be too much and I would end up watching TV.
I guess I could totally write a hit then.
lol
All great tips on how to write a hit 😊
As long as you had a great time it’s all good
You guys come up with great new songs and I think they are all HITS!!
Thanks Terry!
Sounds a lot like grad school! I don't have a twin though -- Do you think Sara would write this research paper for me? 🤔🙏😹
I'll ask.
Ha! I wish!! But the prospect of new T&S music is even better. Can't wait for that light at the end of the tunnel!
Lol
My thoughts exactly!
LOL! I remember those days.
Why is this me when trying to create new art/designs?
😂🫠 I feel SEEN, Tegan! The struggle is real 😆
"Pray Sara has written a banger" 😭💀 we already know she's a lyrical genius so I wouldn't worry about that! lol
LOL sounds like my week
you are such an icon tegan
We pray for the day we will be able to take a week out just for writing songs. Do not remember the last time that happened if ever.
Meanwhile in our songs box we have hundreds to be finished but no real time to do it.
Still we are totally committed to start this one-a-month song release schedule...
Since you guessed it we will then reference your article in it if you don't mind...
Our article is published. We wonder if you received the notification of your reference in it...
And yes, our next issue of Lower Иotes this Tuesday will speak about all this. How did you guess?

Oh no Tegan.
Do Canadians do vacations differently?

I knew I was doing it wrong!
(That said I always work on vacation so, like. zero judgement 😂)
Seems easy 😂😂
New music??
Extremely funny! I could relate. Not a songwriter but an epic procrastinator!!
Now I just really wanna watch Pressure Cooker! 😊😂

It's good! Watch it!
Did Sara write a banger? Don't leave us hanging, Tegan!
Gotta wait to find out.
Me with art and poetry, except my shows are Doctor Who and Absolutely Fabulous at the moment.🫠
You have great taste in shows! 😊
Thank you. I procrastinate too much. :P 😆
😂 Ahh same
