What a great song, enjoyed a lot a new listen

This track is simply beautiful. Piano, vocals, harmonies, just great!

I haven't been by in awhile. This sounds so good. Enjoyed.

Nonchalant excellence. Being superb appears to come so easily to you Bruce.

I like this real sound and vocals. Well done 🎸🎤🎵♥️😊

Rocket fuel regular
Or rocket fuel light?
Said the Venusian
He was ever so polite

She said, give me regular
And lit a cigar
He knew straight away
That this girl was from Mars

No smoking in here
You’ll blow us all up
She said, give me ya phone number
And I might look you up

He went red
She remained green
Coz Martians and Venusians
Are like meat with ice cream

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream

He went red
She remained green
But when you think about it
What’s wrong with meat with ice cream

He gave her his number
That’s  what they did
She gave hime a wink
And he fluttered his lids

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
He gave her his number
And a little while later they had green and red kids

Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
Meat with Ice Cream
You know what I mean

Meat With Ice Cream

Meat With Ice Cream (feat. Janine Levinson & Jonathan Beckenstein)

This is a song that started off as something else entirely different. Originally, it was a noodle that I recorded using a delay pedal. I gave it to Chris Maness, who put a killer bass lines on in. so, I went back and completely reimagined it as an actual song. I thought it sounded kinda swampy, so I thought of the most musical thing I could think of about a swamp. I remember the swarms of gnats that would form different patterns when I'd sing different vibrations at them. Hence, Dance of the Gnats.

something tells me won't be walking home today
all the memories keep tellin' you to stay
oh, the little things you thought you knew so well
put you in a spell

tell yourself, just to carry on
help yourself, to a little love
just exhale, feel the music in you heart
tell yourself, it'll be all right
it may take, the needed time
tell yourself and get through the day

when you know that there is nothing you can do
you wait

when it seems that it will never be the same
again

From our 2017 debut album which will be released properly one day soon. This song is the story of making a rough time all better again, but then there is the matter of John, and who is he in the song? I thought it was most obvious when I wrote it and that everyone would get the reference, but so far no-one has mentioned the connection or had an "aha!" moment. Perhaps one of you will. ;-) 

Pictured is Yoshi who was our first and amazing cajon player whom we greatly missed when she left for Japan. 

Does all this silence give you space
To turn things over
I hope you get it bright side up
It was never meant to fall apart like this
O babe we were never really s'posed to

You know I feel with you
You make me laugh 
I make you smile
And there's no need for goodbye
I dig you out you lift me high
Oh high

Can I keep on running with you
Close by me
I never meant to say goodbye
I want you with me
Through all of this
Oh babe
We were never really s'posed to

You know I feel with you
You make me laugh
I make you smile
And there's no need for goodbye
I dig you out 
You left me high
Oh high

He told her in the beginning she was a gem.
They had a good thing going
Don't ruin it
But they gave a little more and more and more
Hey John is yes always the answer?
Look at this mess.
They said no first
And then yes yes yes.

If you love me keep me

This song is all about travelling in your imagination. It's got me playing some sax too...

Singing In Hiding

Little Kiku you made me smile this morning
while we had coffee out 
the rain began to fall on our menu as we planned our famous day … 
and then you reach to me 
and that look in your eye could stop every single bird in this sky or at least they would try to slow down 
those little birds could slow down

are you not sleeping well
are you eating all right
do you worry of things that can go bump in the night
i love you Kiku

Are you not sleeping well
Are you eating all right
Do you worry of things that can go bump in the night
I love you Kiku
I love you Kiku

Little Kiku you know I have no way of finding you in this big dark city 
This big dark city tonight
come home
just come home to me

we can go out for coffee
we can stand in the rain
just let me explain
just let me explain

and then you reach for my hand
and I see that look in your eye
you could stop birds in the sky 
or at least get them to slow down
slow down
slow down
slow down
slow down 
slow down
It's 10 o'clock......
night night

In this fictional story, Madlyn, "the little girl dressed in blue" from the track, Climb Up the Ladder is missed by her dad. We've gotten a number of condolence messages. I guess we did a good job on this track!

If there was only two traits that came through in my music, I would hope that it would seem to be effortless and inevitable.
