“Right Things," offers a sarcastic perspective on the internal voice that constantly judges its host's actions. Optimistic antagonists often demand reality be silent, yet the truth, symbolized by light, seldom complies.

"I wrote Right Things" in 2021 during a "fugue state," engaging in dissociative rhyming over guitar riffs repeatedly until something intriguing emerges. Once the song's subject revealed itself, the process involved doubling back and refining the lines into a cognitive narrative, still allowing for interpretation. Conceptually, I envisioned living in a house entirely made of glass panes. Without framing and walls, it would be shaky, especially when someone pulls shades to block out light.

The chorus reflects my personal journey – departing a lucrative tech career without having children, making it sardonic to offer advice through a song when most would have chosen the staple paths I denied. The second verse introduces nihilism, countered by the optimistic antagonist urging, "don’t remind the crowd of that, just make 'em dance or else just shaddup a ya face and go home!" Despite never playing to a substantial audience, the line pays homage to a novelty song by Ohio native Joe Dolce, discovered shortly after my family moved to Italy in 1981.
