"One Good Turn, Deserves Another..."
The most popular song released by Corporate Circus, it in fact spent 9 weeks at the #1 spot on Ft. Wayne's X102.3 Alternative radio station, dominating the charts against national artists. There is no denying it, this is a radio hit. 
Enjoy!

Fool's Paradise

This song was featured on the Crusty Demons DVD. Also a fan favorite, it's about violence within our schools. 
"It's not my fault. I can't be sure. I'm having regrets. The trigger is pulled. No turning back. Now I've gone too far. I'm out of control, now God save me!"
Layer by Layer... 'Til I have a heart no more. 
Layer by Layer... I'm going down for sure.
Layer by Layer... Last time I'm called a freak.
Layer by Layer... This time I'm on, the other side, of the t.v. screen. 

Hooray For School

Fast paced and full of rage, this song gets the crowds rocking when it's played. The song is a big F-U Salute to the people who think you don't belong. 
"Why'd you leave by myself, to figure out all the details. Never knew just what to do. Only said so you'd agree with me. I'm so confused, just when I had it figured out, or so I thought, I can't be left alone. If I can't trust myself, then who the hell am I gonna turn to when I finally figure out what's to be done, if I ever find you true." 

Fake

Unlike many of their earlier tracks, "Open Fire" is a slower paced story told beautifully by storyteller Ryan Bettinger. This is one of the most recent Corporate Circus songs recorded while they were in California.
"We're outnumbered and surrounded. We're hungry and we're tired. No matter what the outcome, it's the end. With the target loud and clear, our intention is our fear. When the smoke all disappears, we'll hope and pray. We're still alive to fight another day." 

Open Fire

What was first written for a commercial later turned into a real song. It's a poppy little diddy that you can't help but groove to. You will be singing along before you know it. Ha! 
"I never thought I'd ever have to try so hard just to get a little bit of your attention. I'm racking my brain just to get to you. And baby if you really wanna get to know me, open up your eyes and pay attention. It's the only thing that we've got to lose. Do you wanna know what I've been thinkin', do you have the time to hear me out. Open up ya ears and let me whisper, What I'm Talkin' About."

Figure Me Out

The party song for all you drinkers! When you drink them "ALL" then you're an ALLcoholic! Another song they recorded while the band was in California. 
"1 drink, 2 drinks, 3 drinks, 4! My heads a little fuzzy but my heart is not as sore. 5 drinks, 6 drinks, 7 drinks, More! And I don't remember her while I'm passed out on the bathroom floor."
"Wake up, Get Drunk. And then again we'll do it tomorrow!"

Allcoholic

Personally, probably one of my all time favorite tracks by Corporate Circus. This is one of those songs not too many people knew about. It was recorded specifically for Garth at Plinko for the Shit Like A Champion III compilation album entitled "Unfinished Business: Old Bob Rises Again!" which was a tribute to his cat Old Bob who had recently passed away. 
Yes, this is the sequel to Fight Anthem I from years prior. This time around, the CC guys went a little more butt-rock and you can really tell how much fun they're having with this song. 


Fight Anthem II

If a song was to get a reaction out of a crowd... this was it! The song grabs you right from the beginning with an eerie guitar rift that leads into a speedy anthem that has the obvious influence of System of a Down and teenage angst. 
"Tonight, we're gonna fight. You fuckin' with the wrong ones, tonight your gonna die... tonight. We dug ya grave. No one's here to help you and now you're gonna pay."

Fight Anthem I

You ask, you shall receive. Described as a tasty jam to sink your teeth in. Full of gritty real life lyrics and has a surprisingly complete feel even from a 3-piece band. 
Subjects holds back no punches as Ryan B. attacks many different aspects of human life in this well written song.
Known as a garage band classic, this song was WAY before it's time! 

Subjects

Showing some respect to their musical past, Corporate Circus nail this cover song of Del Shannon's "Runaway." Ryan B's voice fits the song perfectly, and may even leave you thinking that you're back in the 1960's! 
"As I walk along, I wonder. What went wrong with our love. A love that was so strong."
"I'm a walkin' in the rain. Tears are falling and I'm feeling pain. Wishing you were here by me, to end this misery. I wonder... I Waaa Waaa Waaaa Waaa Wonder."


Runaway

Song starts out sounding sweet, soft and slow.... Although the lyrics paint a different picture. The contrast between the musical element and Ryan B's almost obsessively sounding lyrical delivery keeps you listening.
Then, at a blink of an eye... the pace picks up and it's time let out some aggression! 
A very emotional song with a lot of truth within the words. Rumor has it this song is about someone specifically. If I had to guess, it'd be one of those Ryan B Break-Up's. lol. 

Mel - E

"What is left for me since I hate what I know. When this world of fuck up's I'm stranded alone. Seeing eye to eye with a world that lets me down, is something I can never do cuz I am way too proud."
"Why can't I be more like you? You handled everything so well. You never panicked when the world got rough. You stood your ground right through and through."
This song was written in tribute to a family member who had passed away. There is a lot of emotion and heart in this song. 
Stronger Than I is one of Corporate Circus's earlier songs, and was 1 of 2 songs that were placed on the Shit Like A Champion I compilation album. 
The kick start the band was searching for was found with their features on SLAC 1, a Plinko Production. Thanks Garth!

Stronger Than I

Down Low

Clueless

This track is pretty rare to get your hands on. It was released along with "For What It's Worth" for Edge Essentials 5 album for Ft. Wayne's X102.3 radio station. This is the only album that features "Hangin' On A Hope." 
If you haven't heard this... take a listen! 

Hangin' On A Hope

This song was featured on Ft. Wayne's x102.3's Edge Essentials 5 along with "Hangin' On A Hope." 
This song also got new life on CC's final release "Music for the Hearing Impaired."

For What It's Worth (Essentials Version)

I guess this song was so good, it was re-recorded and placed on Corporate Circus' latest album, Music for the Hearing Impaired. 
I just wanted everyone to notice the difference between the 2 songs....

For What It's Worth (MFTHI Version)

SUPER RARE!
You have never heard this!! Here is a super rare recording of Corporate Circus. 
Don't listen to your parents, video games can make you money! Proof is in this song as it was originally written on a video game. Winner!

Kill Individuality

This song has never been released until now!
I'm not certain, but this sounds like it was recorded at CC's own personal studio.
Pretty jammin' song really. If you aren't a big production type of music listener... You will respect and love this song.
Been awhile, and as I'm listening to it now... it's a hell of a song!
"I swear on my life this is the last time. I will never break your heart."

On My Life

Here is the very rare ACOUSTIC version of "My Infection." 
I am a sucker for a good acoustic song... and I know you are too! 

My Infection (Acoustic Version)

A very heart warming song about being in love with someone considered "low class." According to Ryan B, the majority might consider them White Trash, but to him it's his Trailer Park Girl. 

Trailer Park Girl

Here is the album rock version of "My Infection."

My Infection

Right from the beginning this track grabs you and refuses to let you go! 

Perfect Disaster

One More Hit To Cloud My Memories...
