Hey Folks,
I’ve been in a writer’s hibernation for awhile. My Twitter account got hijacked and I lost momentum to post anything. Chrome is a Wilco, The Verve and the Doves mixed together. A friend even commented that the guitars reminded him of Sonic Youth. Hope you like it.
Warm Regards
Mark
Chrome
River’s a fountain
Pouring down the mountain
Filtering so slowly
To the sea
Someone there to doubt you
Try to figure out you
Either way the obvious wont due
Either way the obvious wont due
Trying to tell you how I feel
Honey can we make a deal?
Sometimes all I want to be is chrome
On the outer wheels
Your picture looking back at you
In a premium view
Sand dunes pile up high
Wind it blows, Lord it blows
Picking up the auburn landscape
Shaping as it goes
Trying to tell you how I feel
Honey can we make a deal?
Sometimes all I want to be is chrome
On the outer wheels
Your picture looking back at you
In a premium view
Rhythm is a song
We all want to belong
Million ways to get things done
Sometimes all you need is one
Françoise Hardy
Re-posting Perfect Storm for a TV show prospect:
Perfect Storm
Red dawn morning sailor’s warning
Call for a washout, today, today
Radar calling storm is falling
Darkness sets in the bay
Turns to grey
Turns to grey
It’s ok to be Afraid
We know the winds
Can change either way
Either way
Unholy bravado remember your motto
No need to set sail today
You can stay
You can stay
It’s ok to be Afraid
We know the winds
Can change either way
Either way
It’s a short way up and a long way down
When sabotage is in my crown
Fear can be so logical
When none can be gained and all can be lost
I think that I will stand
I think that I will stand aside
This time
Here’s some fine Anthill pop with a Wilco intro
Easy to Receive
Daylight comes with the rising sun
Sunlight on my face
It’s a feeling that just can’t be replaced
Another day to start again
Living on my mind
Looking for a love that I can find
Give it away in a way
Easy to receive
Give it away
And it comes right back to you
The whippoorwill still sings the song
Deep into the night
The sun is down and the moon is now in sight
I don’t have to fear the dark
As I did before
Honesty has opened up the door
Give it away in a way
Easy to receive
Give it away
And it comes right back to you
Don’t have to go it alone
Don’t have to go it alone
Don’t have to go it alone
Don’t have to go it alone
It’s been a long time coming
It’s been a long time now
It’s been a long time coming
It’s been a long time now
Here’s a new finished demo, “Still Life”
Still Life
Heavyweights in the ring
Fightin’ and the bell rings
Counting out all the miles with every swing
Eagle with a diamond ring
Robin with a song to sing
Feathers are still the same on
Both their wings
Hunny I just want to know how you’ve been
I’m not you
Lately I’m not me
Yes it’s true
The song remains the same
The mariachi band all day
Wishing they would go away
What I wouldn’t do
To get some space
Chameleon change of shade
Gambler with a card to play
Plant a little vine and
Grow some grapes
Hunny I just want to know how you’ve been
You’re not me
And lately I’m not you
Is it true
The song remains the same
Hunny I just want to know how you’ve been
Françoise Dorléac
Ok, I worked on this accoustic demo a little and I now like it
Sleepwalker’s Trance
Over my shoulder
I’m getting older
Backwards and forwards
Moving in circles
No direction, no, no direction, no
Talking and listening
Never knowing what I’m missing
Conversations with strange revelations
No direction, no direction no
So I fly by night
In a sleepwalker’s trance
And I don’t feel as lonely As I usually am
No I don’t feel as lonely as I usually am
Guessing, confessing
No need for obsessing
Estimates will do
Estimates will do
No direction, no direction no
So I fly by night
In a sleepwalker’s trance
And I don’t feel as lonely As I usually am
No I don’t feel as lonely as I usually am
So I fly by night
Don’t wake my chance
At the girl that is only
The girl that is only
The girl that is only
The girl that is only
The girl that is only
The girl that is only in my dream
