Needless (2008) – Dealing with self-pity and doubts
Driven by an electric piano, Needless is an indie pop ballad that explores a silent heartbreak. Self-doubt can destroy the best relationship, especially when you feel inferior to your partner. Dreamy synthesizers meet picked acoustic guitars, an anthem for anyone who ever felt too small to be loved and chose to disappear.

Needless (feat. Robot Recordings)



Slept enough
You get up
Smiling pictures on the way
Kids are crying 
For your time
But iced coffee take their place
But oh it’s fine
They’re alright
Least that’s what friends always say

It’s ok

In your echo chamber
Full of fun house mirrors
Makes you deaf, dumb, blind
To what’s right outside
Yeah, all your friends
Are looking just like you
Because beauty filters 
Can ignore the truth

In an echo chamber
Do do do do 
Echo chamber
Someone Hear Me?

Dinner time
Tow the line 
Take a picture of your plate
Pour the wine
By the pint
Numb your painful wedding ring
But you smile
All the while
Cause there’s no room for the tears

Or the fear

In your echo chamber
Full of fun house mirrors
Makes you deaf, dumb, blind
To what’s right outside
Yeah, all your friends
Are looking just like you
Because beauty filters 
Can ignore the truth

In an echo chamber (Echo)
Hey!
Do do do do 
Echo chamber (Oh no)
Hey! 
Someone Hear Me?

With all that makeup you've joined the circus
Hiding all the trouble that’s below the surface
Hoping the whole world won’t think you’re worthless
So you buy some leggings and another purse

But it just gets worse 

In your echo chamber
Full of fun house mirrors
Makes you deaf, dumb, blind
To what’s right outside
Yeah, all your friends
Are looking just like you
Because beauty filters 
Can ignore the truth

In an echo chamber (Echo)
Hey!
Do do do do 
Echo chamber (Oh no)
Hey! 
Someone Hear Me?

In an echo chamber (Echo)
Hey!
Do do do do 
Echo chamber (Oh No)
Hey! 
Someone Hear Me?

Then you should pray
Who ar e we, what should we do know
What do they ask

Verse 2:
For fame and fortune we will bough

Get rid of all qour questions
And seek the truth

Chorus:
Try not so hard, rememebr things will allways look your way

VickStiX has created a lovely tune (https://soundcloud.com/vicky-adair/voice-at-ninety), that probably deserves even a bit more enrichments. So I did that with Vicky's permission. See her track for lyrics ...

Voice at Ninety (APi remix)

Living of my Needs

Rapture is a new collaboration between the Beating Edge and Joe Stroffolino, following the awesome 'Asteroids (The Original Was Better) (https://soundcloud.com/beatingedge/asteroids-the-original-was). Joe wrote both the lyrics and the original music, while the Beating Edge rearranged and recorded it in a punchy rock style, adding driving guitars, strong rhythm, and dynamic choruses. Vocals feature Tom on lead, with Joe and Mary contributing both backing vocals and lead parts on certain verses and the bridge, creating a layered and energetic vocal texture.
The song explores the absurdity and irony of doomsday prophecies, the obsession with the rapture, and the endless cycle of believers and false prophets. It blends satirical storytelling with a critical eye on human behavior, delivering a mix of humor, intensity, and thought-provoking commentary through energetic rock arrangements.
Rapture is a track that engages both the mind and the ears, combining narrative, power, and fun in equal measure.
Edit: In the meantime, Joe has released his amazing acoustic version of this song! Don’t miss it! 🫶 https://soundcloud.com/joseph-stroffolino/e8ccb0a6-eda9-457d-89d9-6bbbfbbd038b

Lyrics:

These prophets who say the world's gonna end and they set a specific date
And then when it doesn't happen, their followers still think they're great
The sun rises the next morning and people stumble out of bed
Disappointed that the rapture didn't happen and they're still alive instead of dead

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

They claim they have a direct line to God but there was a glitch in the connection
But now they're certain of the expiration date so they issue a correction
The shepherd guides the flock and tries to keep them safe from harm
But how many times can you cry wolf before people ignore your alarm

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind

Who cares about the environment if you think the world is gonna end
And you're convinced the second coming is right around the bend
So drill baby drill and chop down all the plants and trees
No need to spend money on curing terrible disease

In every generation throughout history, people were certain that the rapture would come
And they had followers willing to believe them as they fed them each a tiny crumb
In baseball you only get three strikes and then the umpire says you're out
But when it comes to doomsday prophecies, the true believers have no doubt

All these people going through the motions, trying to deal with the daily grind
Hoping the rapture comes soon and they're not the ones who are left behind
