Oh Yeah Lou
Stars aligning I keep grinding
check the styles that I’m combining
try to get to know who I be
if you hear me then you feel me
are you ready—-now rock with me
now rock with me —-now rock with me
when do verses overlap
it’s so cool it’s called snowcapped
give-and-take that’s tit for tat
the cool comments thanks for that
the contrast the impact
steadfast not typecast
The vibe I bring kickass
slow your row don’t move too fast
the real power is laid-back
I sure as hell don’t take no crap
when I flex it’s payback
dropping tracks just like that
rock with me it’s jampacked
back-and-forth then switch back
roll on out you scaredy-cat
or hang tight and interact
but I don’t do no contract

Lyrics: 

He's got mounds of sweets where there should be bread
Pop open up the closet to the diabetic spread
It's a stoners gleam, Hostess with cream
The oven over there emits a fragrant steam
What could it be?
Digiorno supreme!?
The true meaning of the American dream
of the American beam
Right in between
My sweaty nuts and all the hairs of the team
In Falcone's kitchen, Falcone knows best
The snacks that'll put thick titties on your chest
Munchies all around, 360 degrees
Got crunch rolls stuffed with Mac n Cheese
We're nut bustin
Gut thrustin
Cheeto dustin
It's getting disgusting in here
Wicked concoctions boil up in the stomach, The dirty bubble is near!

At the end of the night
It all seems right
You won't know, it's a brotherhood bite
At the end of the night
When the belly runs tight
Falcone's kitchen
What a delight!

She tamed the lips
Extraordinary hips
and when she went home
She left it on the shelf
and I knew her well
St. Thomas bridge is where I met her
and on Saint Valentine's Day, she was gone gone gone
It's cold out there..... bundle up

The St. Thomas Bridge is a 1,500-foot-long suspension bridge, crossing Los Angeles Harbor in Los Angeles, California, linking San Pedro with Terminal Island. It is the only suspension bridge in the Greater Los Angeles area. The bridge is part of State Route 47, which is also known as the Seaside

St. Thomas Bridge (Conover/Régnier/Welin)

"The Second Coming" is a poem written by Irish poet W. B. Yeats in 1919, the poem uses Christian imagery regarding the Apocalypse  to allegorically describe the atmosphere in the immediate aftermath of WW1. The poem was written in the weeks following Yeats's pregnant wife's recovery from the flu. The virus had apparently bought his wife close to death. 
These themes of senseless destruction and pandemic seem to echo the world in which we currently find ourselves and the work seems like a chillingly apt allegory for our present situation.

A further twist to this piece is that the dialogue was generated using AI Voice cloning, the AI was trained using a recording of the English actor David Warner, who passed away in July 2022. The text of the poem was then simply copied into a text dialogue and the audio was then created within a minute. I slightly slowed the audio, split some sections and added some subtle convolution reverb, but otherwise the voice you hear is generated entirely by the AI.  
While this has been an interesting exercise in discovering what is possible, it does concern me regarding the rate at which AI technologies have suddenly exploded into the public arena.

Should we be worried.... possibly?

I recorded this track in 2004 with my friend Gert-Jan from the Netherlands.
He originally composed this song, I added several instruments like the drums, strings and organ. In 2007 I did this disco version and Molly added some backing vocals.
Remastered by  c r u m i u s  in 2023
Enjoy listening and dance if you like!

We're late starters, hence the name.  Andy started playing and learning how to use a DAW to keep distracted during the covid lockdown, while Helen finally realised a long held ambition to have a go at singing, and is now both writing and performing.
We love the community on Soundcloud, where we can share our music with like minded souls.
