Two albums. Two experiences.

Sixteen songs on each album, connected across English and Spanish. Each has its own music, expression and pacing.

Still My Own · Track 07 / 16

Just Because

Out of character? I call it range.

Just Because artwork · Chris in FullFrom Still My Own

A sweet melody meets a filthy bass line. A familiar choice stops passing for a permanent personality. Curiosity gets its hands on the music, the evening and the next kiss.

Porque Me Da La Gana

A little contradiction looks good on you.

“That’s not really me” becomes an invitation to find out. A sweet melody and a rough bass line make the joke physical; a different kind of kiss carries it further. A different choice can reveal more of his range without making yesterday’s choice dishonest. He does not have to turn either moment into a permanent definition of himself. Changing his mind is something the narrator enjoys letting people see.

I don’t owe the life behind me All the days I haven’t livedFrom the lyrics of Just Because

A sincere past is not a contract with your future.

The pleasure is in catching himself enjoying what he would once have ruled out and letting the joke land. Yesterday’s preference could have been real; today’s pleasure need not put it on trial. A different choice can reveal more of his range without becoming another rule about what he must always want. He gets to be surprised, change his mind and have a good time.

On Still My Own

The album’s room for change becomes mischievous here. My Type, Apparently brings the same curiosity into the expectations that shape attraction.

Development & creative credits

Passage 1
You play a pretty little melody I slide a filthy bass beneath “You said those two don’t go together.” “I know. Yet, look at us dancing.”

Concept, lyric writing, development and revision, musical and performance direction: Christian Rodriguez / Chris in Full.

Chris developed the freedom to make different, even opposite, choices without becoming false to oneself. His wording corrections and direction called for knowing, mischievous enjoyment rather than surprise or self-defense.

Across Still My Own, Chris’s original writing, extensive rewriting and narrative development give form to his lived experience, imagination and emotional vision. He works between intuition and reasoning, refining language and musical direction so that phrasing, rhythm and delivery carry what he means. These notes describe creative development, not final recording credits.
