Stars Casting Light In The Rain (2019-2024)

[Verse]
Life's a prayer in unsettled swirls
life's a nightmare
where all the bullies rule the world
they can twist kindness into sin
corruption is their normal way to win
gluttony in flashy towers
wrecking them takes super powers.

[Chorus]
Stars casting light in the rain
fighting for dawn in the night
heroes like Parker and Wayne
are not afraid of the heights.
Upside down kisses in cowl suits
charmingly beating the brutes.

[Verse]
Life's a dream to become a star
life's a class team
to learn how tactful heroes are
they can hide selves by being masked
helping strangers even if not asked
in the web of stellar armory
pulling threads for greater harmony.

[Chorus]
Stars casting light in the rain
fighting for dawn in the night
heroes like Parker and Wayne
are not afraid of the heights.
Upside down kisses in cowl suits
charmingly beating the brutes.

[Bridge]
Storms raise the dark to obscure the facts
but we are the stars to illuminate the virtuous acts.

[Chorus]
Stars casting light in the rain
fighting for dawn in the night
heroes like Parker and Wayne
are not afraid of the heights.
Upside down kisses in cowl suits
charmingly beating the brutes.

Prefab Sprout - Cars & Girls (Mau Sacra Remix)

My love and I, we work well together
But often we're apart
Absence makes the heart lose weight, yeah
Till love breaks down, love breaks down...

Prefab Sprout - When Love Breaks Down (re disco ver ''Things You Do'' Synth & Magic Mix) back to 84

"A Prisoner of the Past" is a single by English pop band Prefab Sprout, released by Kitchenware Records on 21 April 1997. It was the lead single from Andromeda Heights, the band's first studio album in seven years. Frontman Paddy McAloon wrote the song in 1989, inspired by the work of Phil Spector. 

Prefab Sprout - "A Prisoner of the Past" Cover

Brucie dreams, life's a highway
Too many roads bypass my way
Or they never begin
Innocence coming to grief…

Hope you guys enjoy this cover I did of Wild Horses by Prefab Sprout. Worked hard on it. I actually made a demo of it back over 8 years ago. Wanted to start over again and do it right, so here's my attempt.

Wild Horses (Prefab Sprout cover)

In 1989, when Marshall Boswell and Chris King wrote "Looking Hip on the Gaza Strip," Donald J. Trump was on a kind of roll. In 1987, the same year the Grateful Dead were rebooted as a national campus band by "Touch of Grey," Trump had published his book The Art of the Deal. In 1988, Trump had successfully bought the Taj Mahal - the Atlantic City casino, that is, not the marble mausoleum in India where our fictional hipster smoked a bowl.

SMALL HOURS Guest Selector Series ft. Ian Babineau

LIVE @ Small Hours on April 9, 2025

Ian Babineau is a designer and record collector living in Saint Paul. In both design and music, he enjoys using his intuition to arrive at loose arrangements that resonate emotionally. This shows up in his DJ sets via a genre-hopping musical experience that responds to the tunings of the heart rather than typical genre tags or beat matching techniques. He is currently freelancing and lecturing after spending 6 years as a graphic designer at Walker Art Center.

We Don't Talk About The Years

I am not a musician. I write music that I myself would like to listen to. If some other psychological specimen enjoys my tunes -great. If you love Prefab Sprout, Blue Nile or some new romantics then maybe you would fancy my music :). The genre is instrumental/spoken word/cinematic. I use snipplets of phrases of voices. Mostly bits & pieces from old interwievs with Paddy McAloon. I find his voice soft beautiful and ravishing.

Derek Evry is a giant silly teddy bear made out of vegan marshmallows with a loaded 6-string on his back… sometimes a 4-string… definitely a stringed instrument, though. Derek is a father, vegan, music teacher, very accomplished singer-songwriter, as well as a performer, comedian, actor, voice actor, podcaster, artist, trainwreck, and cuddle bug.

I am a songwriter from Finland, composing original, mostly harmless, pop songs. I'm interested in any kind of collaboration, composing, lyric writing, arrangement etc. Don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested.

I have only recently started to sing myself, so please accept deficiencies in my voice, even after lots of editing with Melodyne. I have also used hired vocalists and collaborators for vocals. There are also songs for which I have used Vocaloids, I may sing some of those at some point.

I normally use Band-In-A-Box for the arrangement. It is a great program for practicing, storing and developing ideas in many different genres. I really recommend it for you, see www.pgmusic.com

Popfinger points to the fact that I like pop music and pop songs in various styles. I've used also other pseudonyms like Syvis Entertainment, Suvis Wonderland, Dr. Elvi's Cosmic Sextet, Smutty Waters, The Artist Never Known As Prince, Gates of Asylum, Pop No Harm and Poop Dilan.

Where is the purpose in your life
Where is the truth
Do you remember your hopes Your dreams
They are no longer your own
This day is for living your own life
Don't let this world capture your heart
Your passion lost to a thousand themes
Surrendered to the screen
This is not a story
This is not a book this is your life
And this is not a play
Some TV show you've seen
This is real life
