Boy – inspiration

The lyrics for “Boy” are here.

I wrote this song while on tour in the north of WA. I was thinking a lot of my younger brother back home (then aged 14), and all the hopes I have for him as he grows up. The band was also listening to a lot of Michael Jackson on the long drive, and discussing how awesome the bass-lines in his songs are (hence the featured bass-line in this song). This is my big sister song, dedicated to Justin.
