Janette Salisbury vocals
hands on top of the table
feet are flat on the floor
eyes are locked on the moment
you never saw before
merely a chance encounter
maybe a sign from above
and you’ll never feel this way
any more…

Janette Salisbury vocals
taken none of my good years, darling
left me with more of the same
i will not ask you to give up nothing
there’s nothing left to explain
50 years and i’m dragging bottom
and live among the debris
whatever…
rpm 2023
Janette Salisbury vocals
we’re starving children, left alone
knocking on the door, but no one’s home
how many days have we been here
how any nights in the cold
praying that someone will answer
save our souls, save our souls…
from the christmas album "noel"
today is the day, it's christmas eve morning
get out of bed and pack up some clothes
laod up the car with everyone's presents
a double espresso a cinamon roll
one side of the state and drive to the other…
You crave the sea, the oceans far away
And further every day
You watch the sky, and see the birds all fly
Towards their destiny
But where are they going?
And when can we leave?
You’re climbing up, the mountain’s summit
Just a few more…

never need to convince myself
I always knew
surrounded by you
I am at peace where I am
can you say it too
the past is a clue
stop waiting, for things to change
just change, anything that you want
change, anything that you…
This same old story,
Boy loses girl and can’t move along
Stuck in a rut and moping around
You’re not gonna fix it writing a song
Stand in place, start the chase
Turn and slap you right in the face
How long, something better comes along…
Another day of broken promises
Like all the other days before
You start each morning with such optimism
That lasts until your feet hit the floor
That’s when things begin to fall apart
And the rain starts to pour from above
There’s no hope…
When i was 15 i’d, had enough
Got all my things and, packed them up
Flipped off the whole world, i was so tough
Little did i know things would get so rough
Got so excited to be, on my own
Finally a place that i, could call home
Little…
I completely agree
That it’s harder to fall than leave
You said before you let me kiss you
It’s a wonder that we
Can still fondly remiss, that kiss
The miracle of the red dress
20 years from today
When i’m lying in my grave
My face…
When i was 15 i’d, had enough
Got all my things and, packed them up
Flipped off the whole world, i was so tough
Little did i know things would get so rough
Got so excited to be, on my own
Finally a place that i, could call home
Little…
You crave the sea, the oceans far away
And further every day
You watch the sky, and see the birds all fly
Towards their destiny
But where are they going?
And when can we leave?
You’re climbing up, the mountain’s summit
Just a few more…

it's all you know
so why don't you show me
just how it's done
i'm mesmerized
the way that you lie
mostly to yourself
as if you're someone else
it's killing you
these things that you do to
simply remain
not breaking ground…

sigh
waiting through the night
but you're not coming over
thought you were my lover
same
every night and day
every single moment
now you have to own it
sighing, the emptiness
the last caress, fading away
crying, the tears…

you can't remember anything tonight
cause you lost the feeling, lost the feeling
the tide is turning, the shoreline is in sight
but you've lost the feeling, lost the feeling
whenever all seems hopeless try
to remember all…

been so long, without your touch
been so long, I want so much
to finally feel anything at all
to finally feel anything at all
as I brush against you walking down the hall
soon all my waiting will be over
patiently await the…
When my 'whole morning for recording' turned into 30 minutes, I did this. Beep beep;
Driving all over the fucking road.
Left right left right doesn't really matter.
In n out of lanes in my mitsubishi colt

seem to forget
nothing i had
is all there is
to regret
lost since my youth
in spite of it too
my dreams
will come true
all this time that you will find
i believe that i will fly
across the world
for you
now you will see

Never Too Late
Lyrics - Boudreau
Music - Maiorano / Boudreau
You see the light, piercing your eyes
til it burns thru the back of your head
You wake from screams that shattered your dreams
loud enough to raise the dead
a whispering voice…
RPM 2014
full, the ocean inside
of meadows smelling softly
of butterflies that swallow
all, there inside, it all
it’s too painful to think
and I must be stronger
than this tornado in my
soul, there inside, to release
tidal waves erupt…
I'll tell you a secret, a lot of them started out as piano songs, and then I had to learn to play them on guitar. every song but 1 has multiple guitars trying to do just that.
I made this song in fond remembrance of Kurt Cobain, who has been an inspiration for me musically. While there's no musical brilliance at work, I tried to retain the original tone of the song with a dirty little white noise in the background…
Last night I dreamed I was a dancer
In an old off Broadway show
And I danced with the girls in balcony
And I sang to the mezzanine row
It was Tin Pan Alley and Salvador Dali
At the curtain the crowd leapt to their feet
And I bowed and I…
i heard this before when you posted it on FB, but it's amazing how much i love your music for a style that is not one i would ever listen to. when you're rocking it's rocking and when you shift gears like this one, it's haunting and true. keep on making music like this man, if were up to me, you'd be a rockstar on a million dollar deal playing this for the whole world to hear.

easily the greatest accomplishment of my musical career. wish it had gotten more listens, but oh well. Kudos to all the people who donated their vocal skills to this project. someday when I get rich I'm gonna fly everyone in and perform this thing live.
I wish I had a car
That ran on air, so far
To take me out – when I need to go
I wish I had the cash
Some seem to make so fast
To take you out, when we need it so
And with the travel costs so high
I’m trapped inside this box of mine
Waiting…

Comments on angie fights crime's stuff
That tremolo certainly sets the scene love it great chorus
Jannette can certainly sing another beauty loving those keys and smooth bass not forgetting the light touch of the drummer
Excellent vocal loving the tone effect on that guitar too and the interplay with the keys an excellent start to the album
Love you Brent 😍
Another brilliant album Brent! Love the lyrics.
Dang.
Oh, this is OUTSTANDING.
this mix is outstanding.
More listens kids. this is wonderful music. Thanks Angie Fights Crime.
Gettin' Sunny Sorta :)
Hey man This is off the charts. Should be on the charts. Chiefs look good though :)
Jangly and catch as heck. Awesome middle section.
Love this, melodic and melancholy. Great solo. Quite Cure-like too, reminds me of "Numb."
Tight! Love this groove.
You turned my song on it’s head in the most delightful way! I think I like your version better than my own.
It works!
This is about as spectacularly arranged an album as is humanly possible. Dang, man.
LOVING this arrangement.
Niiiiiiiice groooooooove.
This album is already feeling "Tour-de-force-y"
Comments made by angie fights crime
FUCKING BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i linked it in the description now, my bad.
LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
those squeals give me the chills!!
very Pixies-ish. LOVE IT!
I'll tell you a secret, a lot of them started out as piano songs, and then I had to learn to play them on guitar. every song but 1 has multiple guitars trying to do just that.
this is actually a cover of a cover. the original song is by the Vaselines, I would give it a listen, it's far superior to the Nirvana cover IMHO.
amazing.
if you have 2 hours to kill, this my new album is pretty good, you should go listen to it.

immediately came up with a cool idea for this one. it's perfect.
woot.
I'm not sure what other alonetoners are listening to right now, but this new EP from NOW/here is pretty good stuff!!!
what a joy it is to have a new AM/FM Dreams album. it's truely an honor to listen to such wonderful music.
wow, this song is amazing.
holy crap reg, some crazy dark stuff!
i love snow balls!
Kraken is my new favorite rum.
you nailed it. i couldn't have asked for a better mezzo-soprano. i wish i could write for your voice all the time.
