Partly inspired by the #XOXO festival in Portland in 2012, and partly inspired by my experience of and love for the internet as a people connector, I wrote this song about doing what you love (along with hustling to getting paid enough to live).

Do What You Love #XOXO

money talks, money walks
gotta pay those bills
they say money talks, money walks
talk to my girl

whats up Georgie, whats up Georgie
happy birthday, whats up Georgie
thanks for bringing us home tonight

don’t stop don’t decide, just live your life
like little pictures from your crafty mind
walk on by
be a people connector

we write songs we want to sing with our fans
we make games we want to play with our friends
we build tools we want to use with our hands
we make our own love & keep it simple till the end

time moves fast, but good works slow
just do your thing, and it will grow
hugs and kisses, yes they’ll flow
they say, do what you love, XOXO

money talks, money talks
gotta pay those bills
money talks, money walks
talk to my world

what’s up Andy, what’s up Andy
out in Portland, whats up Andys
thanks for bringing us home tonight

don’t stop don’t decide, just live your life
like little pictures from your game design
walk on by
to the people connector

where we write songs we want to sing with our fans
we make games we want to play with our friends
we build tools we want to use with our hands
we scratch our own itch & keep it simple till the end

time moves fast, but good works slow
just do your thing, and it will grow
hugs and kisses, yes they’ll flow
they say, do what you love, XOXO

we are people connectors
kickstarted, made louder
3d printed, open hearted, crowd powered
by the people tonight

time moves fast, but good works slow
just do your thing, and it will grow
hugs and kisses, yes they’ll flow
they say, do what you love, XOXO

money talks, money talks
gotta pay those bills
money talks, money walks
but love rules the world
so be the people connector
