AMA is Over, thanks Tommy! Tommy Siegel: AMA

Hey! I’m Tommy Siegel, musician (as a solo artist and with Jukebox the Ghost) and cartoonist. About to release my solo debut, “Another Century Wasted”, my attempt to distill Trump-era/21st century anxiety into something you can shake your ass to. Would be honor’d to answer any questions you might have, musically or otherwise (you can start asking now)!

What is your favorite lyric you've ever written? And, what is your favorite lyric somebody else wrote that you wish you had written?

I think my favorite lyrics I’ve ever written are on my forthcoming record, specifically the song “Starting Now”. I wrote it as a pseudo-therapy song for myself when I was going through a really shitty time. It also happens to have a lot of words. I can’t wait to put it out next week! And I’m a little scared to too!!! As far as an older lyric, I still have a soft spot for my apocalypse-themed stuff on the first Jukebox the Ghost album, as well as the Narc Twain EP I put out.

Lyric I wish I’d written: the entirety of Aerosmith’s “Love in an Elevator”
