Let's Work Together

The LoveMonkeys 33rd Birthday/Anniversary.  A brisk November day.  Intimate outdoor rooftop performance. Lots of emotions surrounded by family and friends. It took awhile to get cooking but we got there.  Thanks to the world for all of the support since 1991!

33rd Birthday Party

For What It's Worth

 a simple little song about finding authenticity and fulfillment  in real( not celebrity) life using 80s actress Phoebe Cates as an example . She left the acting biz many years ago to raise a family and later become the owner of a little store called the Blue Tree in Manhattan's  Upper East Side.
She and actor Kevin Kline have been married for many many years
here they are in a little video they made for her shop....it is very funny.

here's to Phoebe  with much respect
(ps  her daughter Greta is a singer songwriter and fronts the band Frankie Cosmos)


Phoebe Cates

Red swimsuit, West Hills shoot
With Jennifer Jason Leigh 
Backyard pool with bathroom fool 
A Fast Times fantasy

But sooner than later
She moved back to NYC
Forget her space in that poster place
She chose another way to be

She took a part, took a piece
Found a clue in the life she'd bring
She didn't listen to those people
The ones who thought they knew everything 

And me I remember 
The drama and the comedy 
She said goodnight to those thespi lights
There was a better spot to be

Now Phoebe Cates waits
She stands in line 
Just like you and me
Got a starring role in a lifetime show
No acting, no movie scenes
Phoebe Cates waits
And it's alright
Better just let her be
She found a Blue Tree in New York City 

These paths we be walking
We have to find the way ourselves 
Long distance distractions
Not knowing if you’re somebody else

Nothing's forever
Movie stars fade away
Be Phoebe-wise don't compromise 
That one part you gotta play

Now Phoebe Cates waits 
She sits and shines
A lifetime strategy 
From talk show guest to backyard best
Her own life for memory 
Phoebe Cates waits
It feels so right
She's where she wants to be
Living in a Blue Tree in New York City

She's the real Phoebe Cates 
The real Phoebe Cates 
Be real  like Phoebe Cates
