That\u2019s when I&#8217;ve made some of my favorite music. \u2018Dizzy\u2019 was born in that space. A space that lets me operate differently, from somewhere that feels dreamlike. For me, writing songs has to be a little out-of-body. I have to find a personality trait, or some part of my subconscious, and let that version of myself take the wheel for a while. When everyone else is asleep, it&#8217;s easier to do that.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Dizzy\u2019 is a love song from the middle of the night, set on a dark two-lane highway, told from the perspective of someone caught in the cycle of coming and going from the person they love. The smell of asphalt cooling under the moonlight hangs in otherwise empty air. It\u2019s neither humid nor dry, hot nor cold, living nor dead.<\/p>\n<p>Dizzy. In love.<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Dear wrote, produced, and performed the single, before Scott Lake picked up the mix and master at Subterranean Sound Studios.
