Description: Featuring my dad’s production and sweet guitar riffs.

Listening again - brilliant vocals, guitar and sound quality!!

Lots of great things happening with this song, but maybe my favorite is the subtle piano part in the chorus.

Nice playful toe-tapper. Liking that slide, and your strong but vulnerable voice.

What a great voice! 🙌🏻 this is good!!

The lyrics for this song were inspired by another song Gina did - https://soundcloud.com/gina-graham/paper-planes
And thusly she mused - What if you made up with a friend (after a fight?) by throwing them a paper plane .... no words used....And it could be done out of the blue, unexpected. I think it would get a smile. 
And “yes” is often a good answer that can bring a smile also.

Do do do do do ....
I’m going to make
Someone smile today 
It’ll be in a very simple way 
Oh so light
And no mistake 
I’m going to make 
Someone smile today 

Do do do do do ...
I’m going to make 
Someone smile today 
I’m going to tell 
Someone yes today
I’m going to be 
Someone’s high today 

Bolder than bright blue days 
Into your world
Clearer than a cool night
I’m still your girl 
Warmer than sun baked earth
Look in your eyes

You’ll be my heart pounding

Smile

Keep Me Forever

Fairly simple song I wrote quite quickly (quickly for me anyway) with added attempted enlivening of final chorus by means of cod-orchestrals. 
---

I want another cup of coffee but I've had too much already
I get caught up in the details and then I feel a bit unsteady
So I'm staring through the window at the people out at lunchtime
In the sunshine

I dreamt I went to heaven on the train
Oh they've got canapes and badges where you write your name and I
Sat next to an angel
We got into conversation
I got caught up in the details
And I missed my destination

I thought I knew just what I wanted but I did not know my nature
You get caught up in the details and then it's five years later
And when you told me that you loved me well I know at first you meant it
(I know you really meant it)

[Repeat chorus]

Can't be ordinary and also extraordinary
I'm tying not to be someone who's going to let you down

[Repeat first verse]

Think I'm gonna go out in the sunshine

[Repeat chorus]

Caught Up In The Details

© Joe Liberty 2021. All right reserved.

The first verse is about my own early employment experience. Second an interpretation of business as usual. Third frustration in the acceptance of the status quo. The chorus on what influences the decisions we make.

ForLoveOrMoney

The scene starts with the ones that toil in the field
their sweat is the lube used to grease the wheel
the spoils returned make the big man rich
but the ones in the field are left diggin’ in the ditch

One way or another
with a wink of an eye
when alls said an done
and we all know why
push comes to shove
time to make up your mind
will it be 
for love or money
love or money

Hey not so fast, you can hear the big man say
their paid a decent wage and their free to go their way
But it’s just enough to see them through to work another day 
It’s a steal of a deal coming straight out of your pay

One way or another
and it ani’t no lie
when alls said an done
enough to make you cry
push comes to shove
time to make up your mind
will it be 
for love or money
love or money

¯\_(ツ)_/¯  yeah ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  solo

ooh-ooh-ahh-ah
ooh-ooh-ahh-ah

Damn the indifference, damn the apathy
damn us all accepting its the way its gotta to be
How much longer till we end this malady
and the walls come tumbling down

One way or another
with a wink of an eye
when alls said an done
and we all know why
push comes to shove
time to make up your mind
will it be 
for love or money
love or money
love or money

ooh-ooh-ahh-ah
ooh-ooh-ahh-ah

Work Your Magic 2022

I'm pretty sure you heard it before
you wont listen but you cant ignore
the power cut on your side of the line
fixing it it will take up all our time
the power cut on your side of the line
fixing it it will take up all our time
work your magic
now work your magic
work your magic
now work your magic

cross your fingers sevenfold
bow down and put your own needs on hold
mounted on the back of the hardened
the worst offenders who never get pardoned
mounted on the back of the hardened
the worst offenders who never get pardoned
now work your work your magic 
work your magic work your magic
work your magic
  
this is your captain calling
with an urgent warning*
now bid farewell to the departed
we‘re going back to where we started
now bid farewell to the departed
we‘re going back to where we started
work your magic work your magic
work your magic 

I'm pretty sure you heard it before
you wont listen but you cant ignore
the power cut on your side of the line
fixing it it will take up all of your time

* first two lines of the third verse borrowed from  ”Sweet Bird Of Truth“ by The The (1986)

Bluebagbang - Bruto Amor (2023) (single)

Um ‘amor vinil em lado B’, não comercial, é o tipo de sentimento retratado no novo single de  bluebagbang – projeto fundado pela paulista Marina Hungria – em parceria com Márcio Lugó, que assina a produção musical. A faixa bruto amor chega hoje, 24 de novembro, às plataformas digitais, e vem acompanhada de um videoclipe criado a partir de imagens de filmes em domínio público que retratam casais LGBTQIA+, com edição de Marina Hungria. Assista aqui.

"Fizemos uma mistura com vídeos que estão em domínio público e também vídeos atuais. O que permeia o filme é o imaginário do universo homossexual, que sempre foi considerado um amor de lado b e marginalizado", conta a artista. Foram utilizados trechos de obras audiovisuais que datam de 1894 a 2010 – um deles, inclusive, faz parte de um curta-metragem de 1961, Boys Beware, criado com o intuito de ser uma propaganda anti-gay, mas agora utilizado com o propósito de orgulho da luta contínua da comunidade LGBTQIA+.

A inspiração para a música surgiu de uma publicação do site Eu te dedico – projeto que reúne dedicatórias de livros – que dizia: "´Quando duas almas brutas, canalhas, despudoradas, cínicas e incendiárias (somos conscientes de que é isso que somos mesmo) se encontram, inacreditavelmente, surge também o amor´. E ele sempre esteve ali, ao meu lado: bebendo cerveja comigo, discutindo sobre a humanidade e distribuindo cinismo. O amor não é só delicadezas, ele tem um lado B, mais heavy e dark, autêntico, não comercial, como os vinis. E esse B-side é sempre o melhor do vinil. Somos o lado B do amor", comenta Marina. A letra da canção começou a ser esboçada em 2013, mas só em 2022 foi finalizada, ano em que foi também gravada no Estúdio Mínimo,  conduzido por Márcio Lugó, em São Paulo.

Bluebagbang - Bruto Amor (2023) (single)

words and music K. Gennery

If I were to paint a portrait of you,
layer upon layer oil mixed with dew.
Canvas part torn weathered and worn,
a wondrous reflection resplendent in colour.

If I were to sculpture in marble or stone.
Alabaster skin flawless in tone.
A peachy complexion a hint of rouge,
lines to be seen more than a laughter or two.

If I were a poet my sonnet to you,
would flow from my heart that’s been battered and bruised.
Words on page of passion and rage,
an inky endorsement of love and of hate.

Ohhh, let it go now, I need to have some peace of mind.
Ohhh, let it go now,
find myself a release, that finally sets me free.
From all the confusion, downright delusion,
turmoil swirling around, inside me brain.

of love & of hate
