Pushy Parents
"Hold Me Tight Or Let Me Go"
First demo version, recorded in 2010 by Roger Gunnarsson and Amanda Aldervall.

Pushy Parents was such a great band and it suited me so well to be a part of it. Me and Amanda Aldervall usually wrote the songs to begin with. Then we took them to the studio for Johan Emmoth and Daniel Jansson to tear them into bits and pieces turn them into magic. Daniel played the guitars and Johan did the production.

Here's the first version of "Hold Me Tight Or Let Me Go", who later turned into a smokin' powerpop gem on the EP.

Final version:

The song was mainly written by Amanda but I came up with some parts too.

HOLD ME TIGHT OR LET ME GO
W&M: Roger Gunnarsson & Amanda Aldervall (later also Johan Emmoth & Daniel Jansson)

Hold me tight or let me go
Half-heartedly I won’t know
If it’s the way we are when we’re together

Close the book and blow the light
You mistook me before the fight
For someone hesitant and easily pushed over

I hope you regret for some time
Making me sad not wondering why
No one should make you feel that way
There’s no excuse, no excuse

As I lay me down to sleep
I won’t think because it’ll make me weep
You will never feel content that’s it
So you’ll be sad and lonely everyday

There’s something going on
That makes us turning wrong
No one to hold you close
Keep you safe and sound
We had a chance

Hold me tight or let me go
Half-heartedly I won’t know
If it’s the way we are when we’re together

Close the book and blow the light

Our Time

Past tense

Here's where I put up songs that never happened elsewhere. Songs recorded from the 90s to 10s. Some unreleased Nixon tracks, some demos made for others, some songs that just didn't get finished.
