Among Other Things

Among Other Things

Bella White

“Among Other Things” is the only song I wrote in the studio—the only song I’ve ever written in the studio. I’m normally a plan-ahead kind of girl. I was feeling so much, because making an album is such an emotional experience for me. You’re putting yourself out there, and you’re sharing your work with other people, and you’re collaborating, and it’s really easy to get in your head in some ways. It’s also a super fun experience, and you’re thinking about your future in a way, too. I wrote “Among Other Things” on the fourth day in the studio, and it’s another song that’s kind of contemplative. I feel like there’s two types of songwriting: there’s storytelling and there’s feeling-telling, and I feel like with this song I was just sharing my feelings. I chose this song to be the title track because I feel like this whole album has a lot of newness compared to what I’ve done historically, and how I want my music to be interpreted now is different than anything I’ve done before. This made me feel like “Among Other Things” was a fitting title for the album and for this song.
