This is a new rendition of the song I wrote and recorded about twenty years ago. The original is a solo vocal/piano recording in one take without overdubs or editing. I posted it on my You Tube channel  but I thought its 8 minute length was too long to burden Sound Cloud listeners with. For this shorter new rendition I sampled piano and vocal parts from the original  to add additional piano and vocal layers to the song.
The lyrics : relate to the observations by a fictional bartender who notices
many barflies (regular customers) treat bartenders like  full-time "substitute psychologists". 
Lyrics:
I'm your bartender. 
Welcome all you barflies. Let's give cheers to this Friday night.
You made it through another work week, baby
and I hope you are feeling alright.

Wash away your blues... and become numb...and don't think of reality
Become a barfly baby...and watch out for what you see

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over, I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink...
and it will make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink
[instrumental bridge]

I know about your life I know just about everything
Because every night you make your emotions sing to me
...and if you knew...and I need to prove this to you
Let me introduce you, baby to barflies who come through

In the back, stands Al Maloney
He says he "cant afford the alimony" (he bought a new Rolls Royce)

Next to you, stands Susan
She comes here for romance
But she's always boozn' while cruisin'
and never gets her chance

C'mon...won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because I'm gonna poor you a shot and a drink
and it'll make you think I'm a part-time bartender
But, I'm really a full-time shrink

I'm your bartender
The lovers are Dave and Hue..."Bartender"..."Bartender"
But all they ever seem to do is argue

Oh, here comes a newcomer...really out to dress!
Why don't you turn to him...and try to confess
You are now a barfly, baby...
and you don't really know what to feel

C'mon, won't you have a good time?
I know that you'll feel alright
Because when it's all over I'm gonna poor me a shot and a drink...
and it makes me think...a shot and a drink...and it makes me think...
a shot and a drink...and it makes you think

I'm a part-time bartender
But I feel like... I'm a part-time bartender
but they see me like I'm a part-time bartender
But they treat me like  their full-time shrink.

My music and production style can sound unique, unconventional and surprising, all for good reasons and intentions. Thanks to all who have listened, liked, reposted and/or commented throughout the years . I always notice and respond.

We are a quality rockband from Sweden. Al productions are selfwritten and produced. Hope you enjoy!!

I knew at an early age that music would be a part of my life forever. In music I found my self-esteem and a way to make people feel. I began singing in public at nine years old and playing drums at thirteen.  In the tenth grade I auditioned to play drums and percussion with the South Georgia College and got the "gig". I performed in many musical productions there until I graduated high school and joined the army.  I continued performing in the NCO clubs while serving.
After obtaining the G.I. Bill I attended the University of South Carolina, where I played with several local bands. In 1982 I graduated college and taught special education until retirement last May. There, I witnessed the magic of music through my students.
I now enjoy the peace and solitude of a farm in the middle of "God's Country" here in Tennessee. With much help from family and friends, I am able to share my original songs with you.
I sincerely thank you for taking a bit of your time with me. I hope you receive a blessing from a song or two and as you listen, I hope you hear my heart in each and every one.  Tony

The world around us is inexorably changing and all this is happening not without the help of the human race, the Earth is our home and now it is not just a big anthill in outer space, but the starting point of the mind, from here and into distant worlds.

Glass and concrete are so intertwined with the neural network of their inhabitants that a kind of symbiosis is obtained, reaching parasitism of one above the other. A small person has a choice: to be free or to become a link in this system, having realized this choice, the choice as such ceases to exist.

Dolbania was founded in January 2008 by two friends and a cat - lovers of good heavy music. Then a gloomy Gothic composition was recorded on the poems of I.V. Goethe on an acoustic guitar and synthesizer.
In the first year of her existence, she was in a creative search, with an admixture of depression. We searched for inspiration at abandoned industrial facilities and in listening to a huge amount of music. We fucked for a long time and a year later we finally decided on the style that you can currently hear in our songs.

Musicproducer from Cartagena, Colombia. I like different styles of music and I'm always open for new things.
