Description:
here's another one

Lyrics:


we play hearts in the tv room...
sunny days keep me from killing you...
the air is clean and clear/i like
the drugs you get in here...

my brain is a salty abyss:
-meaty twine a kitten plays with...
sometimes i hallucinate,
then i wake up in the same place...

someone stole my candy necklace
someone told me sweethearts say this:

i do/ i do...

What is the woman in the picture holding???

Second, another fine effort, jonx. I know some will say you
just got cranked up and then the song ended too soon.
Not me.

Lyrically, your songs may be the most interesting I have
heard--anywhere--lately. Thanks.

Upon closer examination, it looks like there is a caption in the photo --
"photofiction." So I am not assuming that is not a real cat. If it is real, keep it
away from any stray meaty twine.

Damn &mdash 04/27/05 - 06:01:27 PM
you're good. I love those lyrics. The great mix of simple
melody and backup work together with the lyrics to give a
stirring complexity. Atwood was right...I did want to hear
more.
I saw a show once about people and their cats, and they
showed a picture like that... Real? I like the photo choice.
It gives the song a twisted sentimentality.

Lyrics.. &mdash 04/28/05 - 06:23:04 AM
are strange, but that isn't a bad thing. I almost understand them, almost.

I like the disjointed feel to this, your lyrics fit it well.

DL/8s!

masterful elevation of the mundane &mdash 04/28/05 - 05:58:36 PM
like Angel of Small Noises, an eloquent expression of high
regard for normally insignificant stuff. Way to go, jonx.
You are like a blend of Cat Stevens, Coldplay and Stephen
Sondheim.

No... the <i>cat</i> is like a blend of sondheim, coldplay and cat stevens.

Ridiculously good... &mdash 04/28/05 - 06:11:58 PM
What a terrific selection of songs. Brilliant writing. Brilliant
singing. Brilliant playing.

I get sucked in by you voice and hypnotized by your
simple and direct approach.
And...
Thank you, thank you, thank you for only making a song
as long as it needs to be. Everbody meanders so damn
much, it makes me crazy!
The way I see it with this tune -- if you like it, play it
again - if you don't (and frankly I don't know who
wouldn't love it), then it will be over very soon.
Great freakin' tune!

You have a nice voice.
This tune to me is a good one and I hope you have
continued success here at mj.
