You do the most brilliant phone recordings...and thats down to great musicianship and songwriting and vocals...all of which shine on all of your tunes!

Great words and vocals and love the guitar too its rockin' 😊

I echo what LLW said. And I will add, this is a very spirited response to the ambient darkness. I would go so far as to call it a spiritual fight song. We need more of these!

The light that carries the groove. Love to hear you rocking, great song

That Train Goes Go My Town

Copyright 2024 Joe Stroffolino

Lots of people moving to the state of AZ
The desert seems like a nice a nice place to be
The only problem is there’s not enough H20
One day you’ll turn the tap and it’s not gonna flow
The climate keeps getting drier every single year
I guess we’ll have to take fewer showers and drink more beer

If you can’t stand the heat maybe you should get out of the kitchen
Maybe this isn’t the right place for you.
The sun up in the sky is 93 million miles away
But it feels a lot closer on a hot Arizona day

There’s not enough snowpack on the mountains up high
They say the Colorado river’s running dry
They’re ripping up lawns, replacing them with rocks
Instead of going barefoot, you walk around in crocs
The polar glaciers are melting in to the sea
I wish that they could scoop up an iceberg and drop it down on me

If you can’t stand the heat maybe you should get out of the kitchen
Maybe this isn’t the right place for you

Most of the rain falls in the summer
Monsoon season can be a real bummer
You get a big dust storm, they call it a haboob
You can watch scary videos on You Tube
You’ll be driving and suddenly you can’t see
You gotta make sure you don’t crash into a cactus or a tree

If you can’t stand the heat maybe you should get out of the kitchen
Maybe this isn’t the right place for you

A long time a ago, it must have been tough without air conditioning
People just had to sit around all day moaning and bitching 
Now the biggest thing we complain about is our high electric bill
As we lie on the couch watching Netflix enjoying the comfortable chill

If you can’t stand the heat maybe you should get out of the kitchen
Maybe this isn’t the right place for you
The sun up in the sky is 93 million miles away
But it feels a lot closer on a hot Arizona day

Can't Stand the Heat

Broken Waltz (2007) - Classical waltz meets synth pop
Most pop and rock music sticks to the 4/4 time signature — steady, predictable, and easy to groove to. But after multiple years of songwriting, I felt the itch to break away from the norm and shifted into 6/8, a time signature that instantly reminded me of a classical waltz. However, classical music was never my territory, so I layered some simple pop drums. In the end, the track landed somewhere unexpected. It‘s an outlier in my discography, something I never wrote before. It feels like the soundtrack to a movie I haven‘t seen yet, and probably never will.

"Echoes of the Fallen Sky" PT II

I'm walking in the tall grass
Cool to my feet
Got nowhere to go
I got nowhere to be

O just to be boys again
O to be boys again

Help me up on this bicycle
Point me downhill
A hunert miles an hour
O what a thrill

O just to be boys again
O to be boys again

Maybe just a scent on the breeze
But it's all coming back to me
The sun suspended never to set
All been lost to me now, and yet...

A whole store full o' treasures
Penny candy and gum
I never knew shoplifting would be so fun

O just to be boys again
O to be boys again

O that I could lose all I've become
O that I could find what I once was

O just to be boys again
O just to be boys again
Oh to be boys

O To Be Boys Again

TALKIN’ DIRTY
You should hear the things that fall from my mouth
When it all falls apart, my world has gone south
Ya’d be appalled at the things fall from my mouth
A bar ‘a soap, ya’d use it all

CHORUS
Talkin’ to myself
Down an’ dirty
Talkin’ to myself
It gets wordy
Walkin’ by myself
Downtrodden birdie
Talkin’ to myself
Talkin’ dirty

The things I say, I’d never say to the folks next-door
Sayin’ less these days is certainly called for
‘Cuz they’d be appalled, might even start a war
That Israeli flag says it all, 'cuz

I b*tch about the weather
B*tch about the government
I b*tch about the j*ws
I b*tch in wonderment
‘Cuz just what I’ll say next
You never know
Could be the next song
You won’t hear on the radio

Talkin’ to myself
Down an’ dirty
Talkin’ to myself
It gets wordy
Walkin’ by myself
Downtrodden birdie
Talkin’ to myself
Talkin’ dirty

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do

You should hear the things that fall from my mouth
When it all falls apart, my world has gone south
Ya’d be appalled at the things fall my mouth
A bar ‘a soap, ya’d use it all

Talkin’ to myself
Down an’ dirty
Talkin’ to myself
It gets wordy
Walkin’ by myself
Downtrodden birdie
Talkin’ to myself
Talkin’ dirty

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do

TALKIN’ DIRTY

Phone recording 10.8.25

It's a good job that I don't have any pride
'Cause we're being taken for a hell of a ride
They take our freedom they may take our homes
Throw me in a well I wouldn't be alone 
I have always got the light
I have always got the light
The sins of us adults do the children harm
Old McDonald's got to sell the farm
Sweet indifference causes cancer too
I've got no time to loose I don't know about you
I have always got the light
I have always got the light
Mercy mercy mercy please have mercy on me 
Sweet Lord have mercy on me
I have always got the light
I have always got the light

Always Got the Light

Note: 'Psychedelic Dance Well Shadow' - is spelled downwards on the left hand side. Strangely, this form of writing does limit your scope, however it makes a decision for you on every line so in a way it can help your flow as you are forced into a foundation for every sentence and not left with thinking of everything each time for each line. You have direction. This can remove writing blockages sometimes. Having technical reasons that inspire can sometimes be as important as your intuition when deciding on an idea. The technicality you bring in can always activate your intuition so I'd recommend considering it as a kick starter if ideas aren't coming your way. Add to that, the technique  encourages poetic licence so gets the imagination running in different directions so it's excellent brain food

Lyrics
Psilocybin trance through neurons
Sync the web quantum entanglement
Young again mind has more crayons
Chase these cha cha whacky brain spawns
Hula do that dance of colour
Evolve our path with fungi fuller
Dendrites tuned tame speed of light
Energy cheered feeling bliss thats right
Liberty capped by reasoned subconscious
Cathartic relief

Dream express strong emotion
Alkaloid mine trip the mind
New neurological defined
Control where once we were told just opposite
Ecstatic grain drain brain must fit

Well of wonder escape tonight
Elated dance psychedelic delight
Live a little to love a lot
Like a lot stoic mind plot

Seek the shadows for the lessons
Håkan, high son soothes depression
Addiction go
Dent anxious gloom
Oratory muse
Well wonder womb

The Beautiful Dark and Well  -  Psychedelic Dance

This is inspired from a trip to beautiful Sweeden and its Lagom lifestyle. All is in the measure. Hope this gently swings for you.
Ok, Ok, you may be right
Ok, Ok , You may be wrong
Ok, Ok, The sun is bright
Ok, Ok, Everything'll be alright

Ok, Ok, you may be be rich
Ok, Ok you may be poor
Ok, Ok, Take it easy
Don't let the sun drive you crazy 

Ok, Ok, you may be black
Ok, Ok, you may be white
Ok, Ok, Don't get angry 
Ok, Ok, let's be happy (together)

Ok, Ok, you may feel down
Ok, Ok, you may feel high
Ok, Ok, don't you worry
Ok, Ok, let it be, the lagum way !

OK,  OK (you may be right !)
