this song was inspired from an ee cummings poem. it was composed for rpm 2009.
lyrics:
i'll tell you a dream i had once
up in the sky blue everything
flying away a kite on a string
i didn't have anything
i was cool you were warm…
The first version.
This is the first and only song I wrote on [arrsuarez](http://alonetone.com/arrsuarez)'s Christmas gift to me, a mbira that he lovingly crafted by hand.
 with the present.
Lyrics:
20 years running through time and I remember
all the magic lines
that in our younger days
we drew…
The first version.

03 – Meteorites. Written 2nd/3rd Feb. Recorded 3rd Feb.
Inspired by the film ‘Stardust’ where our hero meets a (literal) fallen star. The painful low vocals were particularly fun, and their emotional cracking was acting rather than the fact…
This album is definitely one of the best things from RPM 2009 and, being a big High Llama's-fan, right up my alley. I also planned do try more multitracked vocals but ran out of time (starting with the vocals only the last three days) so it's quite amazing to me you got all of this done in one month.
Eerie, mournful, beautiful, but so, so lonely.
These are the words of a friend listening to it. When you make a conscious choice as to who you should be, what you were meant to be, what you have failed to be, until now...
This one is meant…
shame I make the same mistakes each time
adding up, piling on this list of my crimes
the biggest to the smallest weigh the same to me
buried beneath of mountain with no hope of getting free
holding on to my broken dreams
shame I have no…

hey man...great tune....like elliot smith meets bright eyes....great lyrics and lap steelish slide guitar
Love the hand claps, and the rising vocal harmony duos. (Not sure what to call them...) My head was totally bobbing to your music. :)
It wants thick vocal harmonies, but no lyrics...just mouth noises. (My opinion only of course.) Lovely stuff!
Simple & honest. Me like this a lot. ;)
Oh, man. This is wonderful. Evocative. Just right. As usual. ;) More, please!!
Thought I was listening to Rick Danko and The Band. Good work.
Funkeeee!
Man, this sucker SWINGS... Outstanding!
