When love congeals - it soon reveals
The faint aroma - of performing seals
The double-crossing - of a pair of heals
I wish I were in love again

A chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless

One crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
Well I played a few songs for those bumps in the night
In fact I played this very tune
You said, "What is this six-stringed instrument but an adolescent doom?"
And one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin

(One Crowded Hour Augie March)

Cheers,
Marc (playin' it for me, and playin' it for T - coz I reckon he'd like it)

Great song I agree. But when someone takes the trouble to write a song about you it would be in bad taste not to like it. I have no idea what the lyrics mean but I am pretty sure they are complimentary. Perhaps someone who speaks Russian could explain what the song means.

zelda_pinwheel · 07-04-2008, 07:06 AM

i found a way
i can't explain
but i feel just like a stranger
all alone, i'm on my own
and i feel just like a ghost

i find that sad, but (even sadder) unsurprising. i like to hope those days are over, especially with the new possibilities of autoprod, youtube, myspace and the like, but i think the majors still have far too much of a say.

Some of the Motown session guys have popped up lately touring as a group.

oooh... i would love to see one of those concerts. what is the name ? (just in case, you know...)

I credit rock with greatly expanding mine. I paid attention when rock bands began playing blues, country and jazz tunes, and said "Hmmmm. Let's go pick up albums by the guys these guys listened to when they were learning to play." 1,500 albums later...

me too. i like pulling on the threads of songs and following them as well. probably half of the music i listen to now, i discovered via a different group, following influences and friends and evolution... but there's so much !! i'll never know about everything...

Quote:

I got to be friends with a couple of the late night DJs. One in particular said "I assume my audience is stoned, balling, tripping, or all three, and program accordingly." I think he liked me because I could call him at 3AM and have a coherent conversation.

heh...

i can understand that. i think Khaled (the radio nova intern) liked me because i talked back to him. (coherently, though.)

That would be the Funk Brothers. An excellent documentary was made of them called "Standing in the Shadows of Motown."

I agree with Zelda. I think you need Igorsk.

Here's what I got, but my Russian is very elementary (and I humbly apologize to any person who falls down laughing at my translation).
