Piles For Miles - from People "3xaWomen" Out 6/17

Thanks to all my imagined and unimagined friends on this song (and you know who you are or you don’t!) I was really happy with the previously released “Blood Moon,” so I thought, let’s use the same team. Some extra background vocals were needed, so Joseph Houck was called on to sing some, and he did so wonderfully. The Return To Normal duo returned for double duty. Martin Lucas added a splendidly psychedelic organ part. Corinne Lucas sang a harmony vocal as well Beach Boys style backing vocals along with Joe and myself. Mark Biegel returned to play his trumpet. Special thanks must go out to Jon Huxtable who worked his magic in the mixing and who’s patience I’m sure I tried, as this song had a ‘devils in the details’ quality.

My Imaginary Friends

Captain Dave, to a fault is brave.
His sister Candy stone-faced and aloof

On Christmas eve, always joined by Steve
We like to sing together on the roof top     

If you could? Would you join us too?
if you’re so inclined would you mind 
to meet all

My imaginary friends  
You’re there for me, I’m there for you too
My imaginary friends
 we sing hallelujah

Candy sighed, You know I never cry
and why should I, The whole world’s gone insane.”

This made Steve smile but all the while he thought
“No, but you most certainly complain, dear.”

don’t judge too harsh all my company
it’s all give and take and what you make
you’ll see 

My imaginary friends  
Do on to others as you do to yourself
My imaginary friends
we sing hallelujah

Do you know who your real friends are?
How will you explain
fair-weathered deals in sunshine
washed away by rain

It happened fast nothing ever lasts 
its unforeseen, just what will disappear
Steve got hired and Dave retired
Candy’s in L.A. she says its all so weird, out here
