¼ª²ÊÍøÍøÕ¾'s Songs We Love Podcast

is a series and a podcast that looks at the stories behind some of the songs we're playing on our new music discovery stream, .

On this episode, Eric Hodge chats with John Moreland about his song "Lies I Chose To Believe" from the album Big Bad Luv.

Moreland's catalog is filled with songs that tug at your heartstrings, and "Lies I Chose To Believe" is no different. He says the key to writing an emotional song like this one is to not over think it.

"It's kind of an instinctive, intuitive thing and if it feels good then I keep it."
