lyrics: Scotty & Gems

Baby, paint your nails green today,
naked on the couch as I play with my lady.
As the sun shines through the curtains delicately. 
And the birdsongs that surround us match my melody. 

Greeeeen naaails.
And soooo free.
Come back one day and make me feel this way.
One day.

Believe me; I should know. We've been sharing a room for weeks!

Composition – The Eclectic Collective

 This song began with a bass part that Jeff came up with and shared with Stephen, who had added some fiery guitar and foundational rhythm guitar to it. However, it languished on his digital shelf for many months as two parts, until he recently remembered that he had it. So, he decided to share it with the rest of the group. We were salivating, all of us, when we heard Jeff's bass line, so we began with Ken laying in the groovy drums and the tight, driving percussion, which propels the entire song. Once we had a beat, we decided to edit the part to include the break you hear about a minute into it. Mark took on that task, and deftly added the bass in that section, too. 

  Josh was up next, and decided to add a rhythm guitar inspired by Talking Heads. Once he had done that, he started hearing a simple, catchy melody in the main verse part, too, so he came up with some simple lyrics and recorded the vocals for that. At the same time this was happening, Ken also came up with some lyrics and a vocal melody for the breakdown part, which he added. After Ken had added his vocals, Josh added a harmony part on them. He also added the lap slide melody you hear in that section, as well. 

  JJ was next up to bat, laying in the breathtaking organ throughout. He also backdropped a canvas of synthesizer throughout and put in some electric piano too. Tez came along not long after and added the ripping guitar solo in the jam section. Once everyone had added their parts, it was up to Stephen to produce, mix, and master it. He arranged and added some length to it, then mixed it in his usual expert manner.

  This is the first song the Eclectic Collective has done with Jeff, though Stephen has worked with him in the past, and we were all fans of his music, and thus very excited for the chance to make music with him. Hopefully, this will be the first of many.

  We all hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. If you comment, please share, too. 

Original lyrics by Josh Clary:
The trees talk to each other
They send messages through the breeze
There's magic all around us
If we look for it, we can see
 
Original lyrics by K2 and the Three:
Hey, how you feeling about love and lust
Hey how you feeling about all the lies you trust
We're here to be clear
Not a walk in the dark

A simple woweluja
Simple halleluja

As Josh mentioned in the write up, Jeff and I have a couple of previous tracks together with Rekha that you can find at the links below

Ja? · Hallo? · Warum?

A short song loosely based on a real guy I worked with in a CD/Record store. He was one of those guys who knew everything in their musical area of interest, from the most obscure to commercial. C'mon, you've met this guy!
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
Are you looking for some metal?
You're gonna have to wait around for a while
Are you looking for some metal?
Yeah, you're gonna have to wait around

For record store Eric
Cause that's his section
And he's possessive about it
Record store Eric
He knows all the metal that you need
Whether it's Screamo
On Japanese Imports
Death metal blue?
Just write down what you want
On a Post-It
I swear
He's gonna call you back
He's gonna call you back

Record store Eric
He's a rock & roll cleric

Ahh, well, we don't touch anything in his section
He says
Eric: "Just keep it in the backroom."
Eric:  " I'll shelve it when I get in."

He knows all the metal bands that you want
If you want a band from the 90s
Put out one album
On Sub Atomic Records
From Reseda
His hair line's receding!
Record store Eric
Rock & Roll cleric
If you want Nu-Metal
Eric: " Why the hell would you want that?"

I keep up with all the latest health and fitness trends every single day
I’m trying really hard to do my best to keep the aging process at bay
Sometimes I get overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice
Taking a break from all this this healthy stuff sure would be nice
I’m buttoned down a bit too tight
I really want to take a bite
Of something that’s not right
And one day I just might
I try to make good food choices when I shop at the grocery store
When I go to a friend’s house I drink one beer, even though I want to drink more
I try to get regular exercise and keep my weight under control
I try not to turn up the volume when I listen to rock and roll
I’m buttoned down a bit too tight
I really want to take a bite
Of something that’s not right
And one day I just might
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream

When you’re living a life of self deprivation
Sometimes you’ve gotta take a little break
Sometimes you gotta put down the celery and have a slice of cake
Sometimes you just gotta let down your hair
Even if you don’t have very much left up on top of there
I’m buttoned down a bit too tight
I really want to take a bite
Of something that’s not right
And one day I just might
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream
These days my idea of being crazy is having an extra scoop of ice cream

If you are having a bad day
Nothing goes your way
All you see is completely grey
Its in you
Don't blame me

You can make your own day great
Just think how, instead of who
Your own mood
Your own voice
Creates the sound that comes from you..

Babarababara...

You can make your own day great
Just think how instead of who
Your own mood
Your own voice
Creates the sound that comes from you..

If you bump into people you don't want to see
You can take another way
Its your choice
Don't blame me

You can make your own day great
Just think how instead of who
Your own mood
Your own voice
Creates the sound that comes from you..

Babarababara

If you feel invisible
Nobody hears you
Do something about it
Use your voice
Don't blame me

Don't Blame Me
