Lyrics:
Rock bottom in Shanghai
Smokin weed like it's opium
Far away from your affectionate ways
Thinkin bout my better fed days

Rock bottom in Shanghai
And I'm dreaming that I'm home again
Far away and in a desperate haze
Thinkin bout the shape we made

The light trembles
Through the window
Saw your face in 
Random shadow

And I wanted to say
You were the one that I thought wouldn't get away

So it's now
Rock bottom every time
The thought of you burns through my mind
Rock bottom every when
When I think about what it was like back then
Oh no

I still love you
Like old fools do
I would take you back tomorrow

Rock Bottom in Shanghai

This song was inspired the Ursula K. LeGuin novel ‘City of Illusions’ and a break up.

The Shing

This song is adapted from Beck's masterful 'NYC 73 78' rework of Philip Glass. My vocals are all original except for the '73 78' part at the end (which is all harmonized with Beck's hook). 

You can find Beck's original remix here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaKrnjY8LiY

73 78 Honey (rework Of Philip Glass - Beck)

This single combines updated & mastered versions of two songs from my 2013 album, 'Music for Public Access Television.' Influences: Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Vangelis, various minimalist electronic New Wave, and minimalist 70s Krautrock.

The compositions are essentially the same, but the arrangement, texture choice, and overall mix differentiate them as truly new versions of these songs.
