From ANDRAS JONES: What makes a Pop Oracle session really pop? It’s a greater than the sum of its part-ness that may be courted but can never be controlled. We book the most soulful songwriters we know and ask them to invite “celebrity” guests from their world to ask the questions. When they can’t line up 6 guests we fill in with the most impressive and interesting people we can find. ELENI MANDELL did a masterful job of curating the guests for her episode. They are all hers. When we put all these elements in a room together and hit record, synchronicity works its magick. Sometimes we don’t know what the question is really about until the end. Sometimes it takes even longer. And some times, something extra moving happens. In this case, that extra something came from songwriter LESLIE STEVENS who we hope to have as a musical guest on a future episode. Maybe Leslie’s reading was so potent because of the discussions that preceded it, or maybe it’s the charismatic reticence of her personality in which she cloaked the hard truths behind her question. And if you think this reading is just for you, that those of us who created it were simply responding to a psychic request you don’t even know you made, that’s also possible. There’s no telling exactly what makes a Pop Oracle reading pop but when it does, it is undeniable, because it’s good to you.
Good to You
I wanna be good, I wanna be good to you
I wanna be good, I wanna be good to you
I wanna be right
Oh, baby, stay up all night
I wanna be good, I wanna be good
I wanna be soft, I wanna be soft for you
I wanna be hard, hard like a diamond, too
I wanna be smart, never wanna be your fool
Oooo
I wanna be sweet
Sweet like banana cream
I wanna be salty too
I wanna be good to you
I wanna be sharp, I wanna be sharp and cool
Shiny metal gonna light up the dark
I wanna sparkle like a swimming pool
I wanna be good to you
Ooooo
