I’m a regular at Creative Mornings Rotterdam<\/a>. It got me thinking. Could I write a decent song on the theme of the month and would Creative Mornings Rotterdam let Two Doors Down debut the song live at that month’s breakfast lecture? <\/p>\n

The Rotterdam Creative Mornings team were willing to indulge me. To\u00a0date I’ve written 4 songs inspired by Creative Morning themes, and we got to performed 3 of them live. (“I trust my hands” I performed a capella to a gallery owner in Manchester where I was stranded because I’d missed my flight. It happens.)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 
\nThe 4 songs in our “Creative Mornings Collection” are:<\/p>\n

Who will throw me a life line<\/strong> (Theme: anxiety)
\nCuriosity<\/strong> (Theme: curiosity)
\nI trust my hands<\/strong> (Theme: craft)
\nHonest friends<\/strong> (Theme: honesty)<\/p>\n

 
\nHere is the latest song, “Honest friends”, recorded live at Creative Mornings Rotterdam on 26 October 2018.<\/p>\nhttp:\/\/www.twodoorsdownband.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/honest_friends.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n

 <\/p>\n

Honest friends<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 
\nVerse 1<\/strong>
\nWill you tell me the truth
\ntell me the truth in love? Please share.
\nI appreciate it when you speak from the heart
\nIt tells me how much you care.<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/strong>
\nI need honest friends to keep me grounded
\nWho bring out the best in me
\nUp close and personal
\nI need your honest-to-goodness honesty <\/p>\n

Verse 2<\/strong>
\nWill you back me up
\nback me up when I’m under fire
\nIt’s so good to know I have support
\nfrom those who know me and how I’m wired.<\/p>\n

(Repeat Chorus) <\/strong><\/p>\n

Bridge<\/strong>
\nLike the pitch and roll of a ship at sea
\nMy life is in constant flux
\nI need an anchor, a harbour and a lighthouse
\nPeople I can trust<\/p>\n

(Repeat Chorus)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
