track 2 from the 2004 album "Advance Screening"
might make a new version for 2024 album 'shit is fucked" or "advanced screaming".  thought this was also on the 2008 perception management expanded edition compilation but it wasn't at all!

will be making a music video for this as it was the first song that came into my head after coming out of a K-hole following surgery after my bowel burst open. I misremembered the "live with fame" line as "live with pain' as i was in a lot of pain, but yeah, this is my near-death-experience song. This and Siberian Khatru by Yes got me through it.

I think original music for this was made using CES synth VSTI plug in. Was impressed by how close to a casiotone it sounded. The best earthenware songs are the ones where the music does not change, the mood stays constant and looping so i can "rap" my poetry over it.  (wrapped in poetry)

there are enemies that are close to you, eg: Family
and there are enemies that are experts, eg: Doctors
if your DNA is weird and you fall into the 5-10% of minority cases
that the 'best' treatment doesn't work for
then you are shit out of luck
and get treated like a guinea pig
you will become collateral damage
a statistically insignificant anomaly 
a casualty of statistics, 
a casualty of "experts" who rely on the aforementioned statistics
but you have to trust them
because they have the power save your life
but it is hard to trust them fully
your abusive parents you trusted to provide your physical needs
fed you to keep you alive
while simultaneously neglecting your emotional needs 
gaslighting you and traumatizing your mind

We're just learning
 it's not the same
You can walk on broken glass
you can walk on rain
we're just learning
to live with fame (pain?)
You can walk on broken glass
you can walk on rain

move up/on(?) to the sunshine
upgrade to a lighter (brighter ?) day
of an august bankruptcy (open up there's bankrptcy)
coming our way

take your time to take some time off
explain to the management that it's not good enough anymore

I was so depressed (unfocused - alt 2024)
you never  noticed
we assume (resume ?) the ceasefire
and now we trust our enemies so much more (repeat till end)

James Seeks Same (Demo)
 (James Earthenware)


I'm James Earthenware, I'm a man of action
I press random buttons and make it happen
I used to be an ordinary one man band
Till I met with Loscha and formed a plan

It was all about using the C-64
Until someone stole the interface I brought it for
So I'm back on the PC these days
Fruity Loops and Cool Edit all the way

VSTi's that rather crash than emulate
Cracked software (way) past it's use-by-date
And let me enlighten you to an economic fact
I gotta sacrifice some style to be where I'm at

My drum machine sounded like Phil Collins
So I circuit bent the bitch and it solved my problem
Now all the kids think I'm Aphex Twin
I wish I sold half as many records as him

I go to work all day and pump the beats till late
Doesn't leave me in a healthy state
Half asleep I say things I shouldn't say
Not eating right, no time to shave

Ccaffine in my veins where my blood should be
Re-recording one song in six different keys
A social life scheduled around ebay bids
It's a bit different than having a wife and kids

When we play live it's a total disaster
Can't find the patch, pitch or lyrics I'm after
Got a whole heap of tech spread over the floor
None of it compatible 'cause it's all pre ''84

But f**k having a laptop and MIDI on stage
Who wants to sound like a CD anyway
You remove all the fun when you remove the risks
But that said... it needs to get easier than this

Some ask Red Engineer "what's up with this s**t?"
You're too stuck up, you don't smoke or drink!
I state my title, I state my position
I'm straight edge by design and definition

Don't need hangovers putting me under pressure
If I'm up at 6AM to hunt at trash and treasure
Obsolete technology? It don't cost s**t!
But ya gotta be hardcore about finding it

Crohns disease tearing up my digestive tract
Don't need more problems on top of that
My Gran's in decline, losing touch
At the hospital twice a week to check her up

This schematic's left me a nervous wreck
I need every brain cell in full effect
Wired in parallel instead of series
Educating myself in circuit analysis theory

Don't ask me about movies you've seen
More than likely I haven't been
Let me introduce you to a small reality
I can't perpetuate fresh styles watching telly

I don't care if James Dies A Virgin
You preach distraction, I preach conversion
If you need a f**k why don't you f**k someone else
If I need a child I'll adopt myself

Don't bother about dressing to impress
If it's what everyone wants…I want it less
The media creates idols for us to adore
But they're about as intellectual as of a security door

But that's alright...I'm not involved
Steer clear of the hype, problem solved
Yeah that's alright...I'm not involved
Steer clear of the hype, problem solved

 	Story behind this song:
  I wanted to write my token hip hop song for the Home Entertainment CD...I had a slower song that wasn't working...this song is slightly too fast for me to rap over because I'm not that good a rapper but it sounds exciting and that's the main thing.

The "hey buddy" is an in joke pertaining to a rather hilarious (albeit racist) flash animation called "Wesley Likes Goon"

The songs title is not about homosexuality...it is about seeking like-minded people.

The song was originally called 2004 (A year in review), Intellectual Property Markets Guide 2004, Lose Control and James Spends His Time...so it will probably be changed again when it is finished.

Loscha is really into it so it's definate for the album when I figure out how to incorporate the rest of the lyrics (Always too many sylables)
