#frustrated

'Are 'Friends' Electric?' was two songs: the verse part and the talking part. Two different songs I couldn't finish. One day I was playing the main verse part of 'Are 'Friends' Electric?' and after a few minutes I got frustrated, as normal, then started to play the other song, and realized they went together. ↗

Yes, sometimes I think that all my writing is nothing more than the compensatory work of a frustrated painter. ↗

I started out as a business manager for a national hotel chain based in Oklahoma. I got frustrated with what was happening in the state capital - the high cost of doing business and a lack of educated workers. ↗

I was so frustrated in Sabbath after the last few albums. I just didn't like the musical direction Sabbath was going in. ↗
