Jackson 5 ABC groove with funky and distorted guitar with a song about keeping it simple (Epicurus 341 - 270 BC)

Lyrics

Keep it Simple Epicurus (341–270 BC)
I live a simple life
The pain of failure isn’t worth the strife
Success is not a lure for me
Why fret when it might not be.

Chorus
I was not
I’m no longer there
I am not and I do not care

I don’t fear for my death
I’ll be gone with my last breath
I will have had my time 
To worry more would be a crime


Keep it simple free from stress
It gets better when you do less
Chance are you dreams won’t come true
So, relax and have a brew

Why dwell on the future, 
Live for now, it’ll be cooler
Just enjoy what you have in life
Chance for fun will be rife

Keep It Simple (Epicurus 341 - 270 BC)

Time Settles - Lyrics 

And the decision made a hole, a vacancy in a vital inner chamber in my bones
This is what finally separated me from all my friends for whom I became skeletal

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And then the places I visit became the same inside world that I thought I was in
And like a fly scribbling the air I know neither the place nor what the hour is

Time settles over me
Time settles over me

And I, far off inside, was old

And now the years are closing in, each minute the last minute and following me

halfway put together ideas from 2018 onward

Willow St

In this cover of PJ Harvey's "To Bring You My Love," I altered the lyric to magnify its blasphemous curses to the utmost, calling for inspiration on Eros as God of Destruction, while tipping some hats to Led Zep, Rolling Stones, and The Stooges.  I mirrored the original instrumentation to some degree, but intensified periodically.

I wrote and recorded this at my home.  This album features guitar, bass, drum machines, vocals and analog synthesizers.  No VSTs, no autotune.

The Unknown Bio

The Unknown formed in 2010 and is fronted by Tim Myers who is a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, keys, drums, bass).  The Unknown's music has been featured in several movies, TV shows, and films .  The Unknown also features vocals from Carah Faye of Shiny Toy Guns and Dave Bassett (Shinedown, Skillet) contributes additional guitars, bass and drums and is co-writer of "Are You Ready For Me?" "Come & Get It" and "We're Back.  Michael Miley and Chase Duddy also contribute with additional drums.  

With haunting vocals, rock instrumentation, synthesisers and epic string orchestration, The Unknown is truely a unique band.  The Unknown has quickly become an underground success with major synchs in film and television.  The band was featured in a major commercial in England for Vodafone with the song "Bang Bang Boom" and in the US the band made their debut in the Ron Howard/Vince Vaughn film "The Dilemma" gaining thousands of downloads on the film's soundtrack with their song "Ready, Aim Fire."  The band has a song featured in an ABC promo and the video game "Need For Speed 12."  The stand out single "Battle Line" features a hypnotic vocal from Carah Faye, lead singer of Shiny Toy Guns, and a bombastic chorus vocal by lead vocalist Tim Myers, former member of OneRepublic.  The two singers went to the same high school but never met, meeting years later through a mutual friend.  When they began working together they asked about each other's upbringing and to their shock they went to the same school and had many similar friends but never crossed paths.   The band began recording songs in 2010 in Los Angeles with producers Tom Meredith and Mark Maxwell.  The string orchestration being key to the sound was composed by Tim Myers and performed by Stevie Blacke (Weezer, The Kooks, Alice In Chains, P!nk).   The music and lyrics are mostly all composed by lead singer Tim Myers.  The band is planning a new tour for their debut album in 2013.  


Come And Get It

A song on the way I see the ecological state of the planet.

Flowers in the Rain

Creating music from a place of authenticity.  I do not make music to impress anyone or to show off my musicianship, but only to share what I am feeling.  I love to hear the authentic, independent works of others.  I live in a world of sound and vibration, and welcome the presence of friends.
