Fake Plastic Love - original music and lyric alteration by JTSunrise 

C/G She looks like the real thing
C/G She even sounds like the real thing
My fake plastic love C/G 
Her green plastic watering can
Am For her fake chinese rubber plant F/C
On this C/G fake plastic world F/C

It wears her out Dm
It wears her out Am
It Dm wears her out Am G

He’s just a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He still has his memories 
Of girls from the eight  -  ies
Gravity always wins

It wears him out  
It wears him out
It wears him out 

She thinks I’m a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
Trying to get rid of myself
And I can't help but feeling
I could blow through the ceil  -  ing
But I just turn and run

It wears me out   
It wears me out
It wears me out

I can be who you want to see
I can be who you want to be
All the time
She sounds like the real thing
She even looks like the real thing
My fake plastic love

The original ‘Fake Plastic Trees’ on Radiohead’s second album The Bends was unlike any other song the band had previously come up with. A stark contrast to their astounding rock sounds, this song followed a slower and more melodic tune.

Thom Yorke, the main composer of the song, recalled how it originated from a melody that he had “no idea what to do with”. Either way, the end product was more soulful than ever with an ensemble of instruments leading the way. The music for the song ranged from the regular sounds of Yorke’s acoustic guitar, Jonny Greenwood and Ed O’ Brien’s electric guitars, Phil Selway’s drums and Colin Greenwood’s bass – to the more unusual accompaniments of Caroline Lavelle on the cello, John Mathias on the violin and Johnny Greenwood playing a ghostly organ tune – easily making it one of Radiohead’s more musically rich songs.

All the Best!!! JTSunrise

I asked Xian3 if he'd like to add his input to a previous dance song instrumental.  IMHO, his vocals give it an 80's on-the-dance-floor feel.

Music and Lyrics: Mike Krath
Vocals: Xian3

Lyrics:
There are chords D, A, C, E, 
But no N. 
where’s N?
On the dance floor,

Again,
These chords D, A, C, E, 
But no N. 
where’s N?
On the dance floor.

There’s E as a solitary chord,
But where’s L, O, V?
Where’s its companions? Huh?
On the dance floor,
On the dance floor. 

D, A, C, E,
L, O, V,
N side,
The dance floor. 

N, R, Y,
with E and G,
And B and T
With E and A,
Where?
WHERE?
On the dance floor,
On the dance floor.

D, A, C, E,
L, O, V,
N side,
N side,
N side,
The dance floor.

D, A, C, E.

If you don’t like?
Then you can…
L, O, V it,
Or L, V it. 
If you don't like, 
then you can,
L, O, V it
Or L, V it,
On the dance floor 
On the dance floor.

So  as we approach the All Hallows Eve...  Let's take peak at a very spooky 30's speakeasy....  where the  whiskey is flowing and the skeletons are scatting and bopping with the magic of Jazz ....  Decided to try my hand at electro swing  style... Enjoy :)

The Spooky Cabaret

I think this haiku is a perfect match with the track I've been trying to create for some time... immediately after reading it I had very clear ideas on how to make it all happen.
 There are several recordings, the oldest was made with the guitar, processed on the elektron octatrack in 2020.
 About a month ago I found the central part of the song while experimenting with the vcv rack and the initial part (which takes up the final guitar theme) is the most recent recording processed with the Fm8 synth.
 recorded in Ableton and subsequently mixed in Cubase.

 footsteps on an empty house
 once full of life"

 Heartfelt thanks to: Marco Sebastiano Alessi
 for the precious inspiration.
