"Removed from Tomorrow" was influenced by female artists who inspirationally touched my life. Along with hiking daily through mother earth's beautiful forest/garden of life. There were many experiences of double rainbows, butterflies, beautiful colorful various birds, wildflowers. Magical psychedelic experiences along the way. Hope everyone enjoys my latest musical journey.

Best,

PHONOGRAPHE

Infidèle

raise a glass to the roar of the city
pouring concrete into your fists
the wind in its tunnels can lift the
vain & the hungry, the gentle, the gritty
who fall for its kiss

escape the humdrum
come play & be someone
your portrait in hectic
dreams sizzle electrically
word is out on the street
prayer's crowding the basements
sea of prodigal faces
rocked by shuffling feet

raise your mast for the squall of the city
swelling circuits of angular mist
the trains in its bowels can fit the
homeless & hopeful, the heartless, the needy
who pay for its kiss
(pay down the rent on its kiss)

complete the long-drawn
defeat of your hometown
the traffic caresses
all six of your senses
you breathe
the mass of the steeply
stacked office spaces
they brace for renaissance
lives will bend to their beat!

think fast on the clock of the city
crack some skulls for the room to exist
don't wait for its edges to nip the
grapes that you came for
only grow in the city
and drink from its kiss

The Guitars Say Sorry – The Gods Don’t Hear Me Anymore

Closing out the Jaded album, The Gods Don’t Hear Me Anymore is a stark, emotional reckoning—part confession, part lament, part protest. Over a raw acoustic guitar in open tuning (DADEAD), The Guitars Say Sorry delivers a song that feels like it was written under a flickering streetlight in the early hours, alone but overheard.

The lyrics drift between the personal and political: forgotten memories, absent gods, the weight of family history, and the ache of disappointment in the world around us. “Tears come easy when you're young / And you don't know where you've come from” sets the tone—disillusionment framed by a search for meaning, identity, and connection. There’s resignation in the refrain, “The gods don't hear me anymore,” but also an undercurrent of defiance: “I carefully chose my enemies.”

Sparse, honest, and lyrically pointed, The Gods Don’t Hear Me Anymore is a fitting end to Jaded—a quiet anthem for those still standing in the ruins, asking questions no one seems willing to answer.

Lyrics
I'm waiting for someone
Who I don't remember
Under the bridges
The shadows of my father

The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore

So here we are
Ruled by old men with long memories
After George's death
I carefully chose my enemies

The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore

Tears come easy when you're young
And you don't know where you've come from
And they always tell you what you've done wrong

In the morning
I held my breath and nothing's changed
I closed my eyes, I'm still to blame
I can't help feeling it's still the same
As the last time

Is life always like this? I find it hard to tell
Is this what we're in for? It never ends up well

I lost my taste, changed beyond recognition
I'm spinning plates
I love the world we live in

The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore

Ran out of space, and not for the first time
Felt out of place — seems my mother was right

The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore

Tears come easy when you're young
And you don't know where you've come from
And they always tell you what you've done wrong

In the morning
I held my breath and nothing's changed
I closed my eyes, I'm still to blame
I can't help feeling it's still the same
As the last time

Is life always like this? I find it hard to tell
Is this what we're in for? It never ends up well

                                                                                                                                                                             She seldom laughs out loud now                   She’s not so very proud now 
Elle ne rit pas souvent maintentant               Elle n’est pas très fière maintentant
Appears so ill at ease                                        So very hard to please  
Semble si mal à l’aise                                        Si difficile à satisfaire                                                                                                                                                                      
Permits herself a smile                                     The shadow of beguile           
S’accorde un sourire	                                      L’ombre d’une séduction                                                                                                                                 

He seldom finds the time now                       To call “that friend of mine” now
Il trouve rarement le temps maintenant      Pour rapeller cet un des mes copaines maintenant
Trapped up in a circus                                      He swims towards the surface 
 Prisonier d’un cirque de farce	                     Il nage vers la surface  
Still struggling for air                                       He’s struggling to care 
Cherchant toujours son souffle	                     Il lui est de s’impliquer

God  knows it’s   - no big surprise   ,    one day to  -    open your eyes
Dieu sais c’est – pas grande surprise, un jour à ouvrir tes yeux
And wonder what you’re seeing,      And wonder where you’ve been
Et démandes toi ce que tu vois         Et demandes toi où tu as été
They know it’s   - no big surprise   ,           one day - to realise 
Ils savent que c’est – pas grande surprise, un jour - à realiser
That everything’s seem strange             and nothing’s really changed…………….
Que tous les choses semble étrange       et rien a vraiment changé
That said -         From time to time -   the tide will turn    - stars will align
Et bien,              de temps en temps - la mare tournera et les étoiles s’alignent
That’s better -   Blue’s in the sky -      The sun will set – guess the sun will rise
Ça c’est mieux – le ciel est bleu -        Le soliel se couchera – et je suppose se levera       
No big surprise--- God knows it’s ----- No big surprise ----- They know it’s --- No big surprise   
Pas grande suprise – Dieu sais c’est pas grande suprise – Ils savent que c’est – Pas grande surprise
