Looking for the right one can be hard.  Giving up is easy.  Which do you choose?

COLD WIND BLOWS

Down by the iceberg there’s a million men
They fight to find the girl of their dreams
I walk around like the loser from hell
I’m outta my league - whatever that means
But someday when my fish comes in
There she’ll be waiting underneath my wings
Patience is a virtue son
Except when more than half of your life is done

Cold wind blows on my forehead
Cold wind blows through my soul
Satiate the wait to find the perfect mate
But first I need to tuck and roll
For true believers only

Just give me one more chance
That’s all I need for romance tonight
Just give me one more chance
I got my body tux finally waxed and tight
I dream about finding someone with some clout
Who can take me in and out of this cold
So far it’s been no show you‘d think by now I’d let it go
Excuse me if I seem so emotional

Cold wind blows on my forehead
Cold wind blows through my soul
Satiate the wait to find the perfect mate
Searching through this endless snow

Cold wind blows on your forehead
Cold wind blows through your soul
Keep on trudging down that mountain
Keep on searching high and low
For true believers only
All us fools so desperate for love

Some People Never Know

If there is someone in your life who you love but you can see they're full of it, this is the song for you...  Block out the negative asap.

HEAVEN IS EASY

If you should only give me heartache
Then I should give it back to you
I see no reason to feel lousy
Based on the lousy things you do
Well the laws have been passed
No more screaming on my cell phone
I will hang up and make it my last
conversation with you that day
Don’t need the aggravation!

Heaven isn’t always far away
Heaven is so easy when you’re willing to shut
out the negative
Heaven isn’t always far away
Heaven...
all you’ve got to do is shut out the negative
Shut out the negative spawn

You often cry of "no commitment"
When your whole life remains untied
You say my love for you is empty
But the truth you can’t deny
Well who else will put up with your mood swings
And critical tongue that too often breaks the
boundaries of taste
So please forgive me now, I’m cutting the strings
Don’t need this aggravation

Heaven isn’t always far away
Heaven is so easy when you’re willing to shut
out the negative
Heaven isn’t always far away
Heaven...
all you’ve got to do is shut out the negative
Shut out the negative spawn

(Pseudo mantra) :
Peace and happiness awaits you child
Peace and happiness awaits you child
Peace and happiness awaits you child
Peace and happiness awaits you child

THE PERFECT MARRIAGE

Yes is just a means to no
Stop could not exist without it's rival go
And you and I will rock and roll
Until the lives we have turn in their mortal souls

Everything is like the perfect marriage
Suppose it's always been that way
Perfect by design just like the horse and carriage
So entwined…
Like night is to day

The present needs the future past
Nonsense needs some logic to keep up the flag
And salutations never last because the goodbye look
is right behind it's ass

Everything is like the perfect marriage
Suppose it's always been that way
Perfect by design just like the horse and carriage
So entwined…
Like night is to day

OFF TO WASSELETTE (Sound Advice For Joan)

Know, there are ways to fly
Through any dimension of space and time
Forces around you make it hard to decide
But you’ll get some help from a destiny child

Deep oceans of heavy karma
projecting the films of your past
Do you remember when life was so simple
Once you untied yourself from the mast...

His musical background consists of extensive study of orchestration with noted 20th century composer John Lessard, harmony with the late electronic music maverick Bulent Arel, and composition with Stony Brook University professor Peter Winkler. He received his BA in Music from Stony Brook University in 1983. 

Like an unfolding musical diary / puzzle, Tabacco’s music and art are constantly being re-worked, juxtaposed and intertwined. His style is a melding of pop - jazz -rock - avant garde / aleatory, classical and comedy.  He has been recording his music non stop since 1979.

Of note: In 1989 the satirical, absurd house song "Go House Yourself" co-written by Tabacco, Pati and DiMauro reached position 39 on Billboard's dance chart. 

In 2014 Tabacco signed a record deal with Texas, indie label, Muffin Records. They released his CD “Unfulfilled Shopping Carts Syndrome” internationally.
