Low C - Popstar

There was a song about Van Gogh. Another about L S Lowry in the same decade. Painter songs are a little niche in the market I was tempted to explore. The guts of this one were written a few years before Scottish artist Jack Vettriano passed away in Nice in March 2025 but his death sent me back to what I'd written before and made me think I must try harder for the guy. He was a complicated fellow - stung more deeply than perhaps he liked to admit by the fact the art cognoscenti didn't take him very seriously. Anyway, this isn't necessarily his story - I know some of the facts, not all - really just an observer's imagining of it. He once did a picture called Genevieve Smoking a Cigarette, by the way. I figured maybe he had a notion for her.

Many thanks - as ever - to Jen Young for sorely appreciated BVs.

Genevieve 

One day you wake up, can't see past the wallpaper
You hate your whole life, furthermore
You climb inside a painting, it's been a blast
But I’ll have to see you later
Into the picture and out the door

Old lady checks the rooms, even the cellar
There's no sign
Calls her best friend Gen, says you've gone
Your finger's at your lips, you say don't tell her
I just need more time
To paint Genevieve with her stockings on

Genevieve - a dream at the railway station
Come up and light her cigarette
Sardonic, serene like she’s onto something                         
But nobody’s told you yet
Genevieve
Genevieve
You won’t forget

You always wondered how it would be
to pay for action
You show them your money and you feast your eyes
You bring along a picture for them to see
New transaction
Sleep with whoever you immortalise

You landed on your feet Jack, what a player
I'm not joking
They're queuing down the hall like you won't believe
You ask their names, but they don't care,
Whatever you're smoking
You say I think I'll call you Genevieve

Genevieve - a dream …

Years go by, you've painted them all
Made your millions
But there’s no ivory tower for you
Museum guys won’t take your calls
You’re just a civilian
If you wanna paint then you’re welcome to 

One day you wake up, you wonder  
Why am I lonely
Where's my companion at? When did she leave?
What did I file that old picture under? 
Oh, if only …
Climb out of the canvas, Genevieve

Genevieve - a dream ...

My debut album, Time On My Own, is now available on bandcamp. You can find it at http://brokerjonathan.bandcamp.com There's a review of it here: 
http://www.folkwords.com/reviewarchive_90495.html
Long ago I wrote some songs which were rubbish so I tried some more. They were not much better so I kept at it. No one asked me to do this. The world was not short of good songs. It had shitloads already. It was only short of good songs by me. Other people didn't seem to mind about this in the slightest, but I found it bothered me, so I was trying to do something about it. I guess I still am. This page is where some of the more recent attempts to rectify an intolerable situation appear.

Cris Tu (born April 13, 1982), better known by his stage name Low C, is an independent music artist from Dusseldorf, Germany. He has been remarked by the worldwide public after releasing multiple cover songs from different genres. 

Low C can rap and sing, music flowing through his veins since he was a kiddo. His first contact with music was on primary school, when he won multiple music contests, being easily recognized for his rhythmic skills. Originally born in Romania and grown in challenging neighbourhoods, Cris learned how to deal with streets, and rap music was always the perfect escape from problems. Becoming Low C, Cris has started his official career as a music artist by launching a rap tribute album for the 50 years of hip-hop culture. The album is released on Apr 13, 2024, and is produced in his own recording studio in Germany. 

Low C best describes himself as a hustler, a self-made man who dares to run his music career as an independent one-man street team. His mission is to inspire people, especially young, to run for their dream at any length and cost. He believes that vision without action is a simple daily dream, and action without vision is a nightmare. Low C music style is no fixed genre and gathers influences from rap, r&b, pop & electronic music: “A song is a life story, and people's life takes complex shapes and forms. I want to tell stories. "
