Thank you for telling me that your cat threw up on the rug today, and
Thank you for telling me that Starbucks didn't make your coffee the right way, and
Thank you for telling me that…
There's a story here. One day I'll share it.
G - D - Am7 - C
In the year of upheaval
Pick up and start a life anew
Stare down the possibilities
Wonder what I'm meant to do
Am I the one
Who will be king?
In the year of betrothal
Coming into…
Another 80's flashback
They say the laws of motion
Don't apply to emotions
But I say check your equation
You may not need so much persuasion
If you want to be the one
Who I take home tonight
You should get your back up off the wall
Some things…
My cigar box guitar makes its debut.
This seemed a good idea
But you bit more than you can chew
Now that you've sized things up
It's decision time for you
At this critical juncture
It's time for you to choose
We're waiting for your final word…
Yacht rock, featuring my most forward and forthright vocal ever.
I don't want to believe
It's time for me to go
I don't want to
Walk through that door
'Cause I know if I go
I won't be coming home
I won't be welcome here
Anymore
We can try…
I'm lucky enough to have a lot of talented friends helping me out on this song.

You say your life's full of problems
So much to worry about
And you feel overcome now
By your worries and your doubts
Well, I may have the…

Those times we spent alone?
Walking hand in hand
Skimming stones

Those summer nights

My George Harrison phase....

Before you know it, you're caught in the lavender haze
Head in the clouds, caught in the lavender haze

Act like you've been here before
Eyes are watching from all around
To see what's up with the new kid in town
Is it true that he has all the moves?

Thanks, Gary. All of the credit for the keys (and the awesome stick bass in the verses) goes to Clarke McMurray. He killed it. This song has an odd feature where I'm playing bass in the choruses and Clarke is playing stick in the verses.
I got a friend, his name is Tim, and he really likes donkey songs.

Interpret this song as you wish. The inspiration is a rash of door to door religion salesmen that plague my neighborhood. The conversations they try to engage me in made me ponder their motivation for grace.

way to go
great escape
such a clever girl you are
made the grade
change the course
all because of what she said
climb up the ladder
release the lion trapped inside
all our thoughts…

lover cease
and desist what you say
cause there's a ton of trouble
coming your way
lover be strong
it's gonna be a crazy ride
but when it all hits the fan
i'll be the one with the plan…

as you wish said the boy
to the girl with the sparkling eyes
so it goes, so they say
he was taken from her that day
and her deep blue eyes went silent
just another sad tale, so sorry…
from the album "ZERO"

gotta keep on reaching, cause it never hurts

wait a day
might as well stay, awhile
here with me
where the breeze, blows
just say now
time grows shorter
then we dream
awake a scream, out loud
leaving leaves a hole
kicks around…
from the album "ZERO"

seems like I felt this way before
but my memory is not to be trusted
so many things flashing through my brain
was it real or a dream or something else
you're staring at me like a criminal…
from the album "ZERO"

you used to be
someone I could believe in
someone much better than me
and now you're no better than the others
i'm sorry to say...
you weren't so smart
locking yourself in your house…

I am, wasting away
the older I get
approaching the end of the line
I never meant to be

it's time to paint it on again
adjust my smile smooth down my dress
make sure the shoes both match, and leave
jump in the car, i'm fast asleep
and all the people in my dreams
seem so…
Comments on Letter Seventeen's stuff
pretty sinister, kind of a NIN groove although the little synth line towards the end made me think of a demented Main Street Electrical Parade thing for a moment for some reason... (for whatever reason?)
"thank you for telling me you worked on your virtual farm today..." LMAO BRILLIANT!
Another great song, the music is really wonderful too. I love the banjo sound.
Lovely full track, well played too. Very, very nice, love it. Foot tapping good!
I like your lyrics, very clever.
Very gentle backing music making a feature of this brave and strong vocal. Pretty guitar outro.
I like your song writing, they jog along well and keep the interest. Great performances here too.
Pretty song, nice relaxed feel to it.
This is an exceptionally good song. Rather exciting I think! Great performance!
I'd say Gary did a good job of teaching harmony singing. Backing vox sound great!
Nice use of synth. Love how this tune moves.
Really like this one.
Punk rawk vibe! Love the subject material too!
How did we miss this? Hilarious! And kicks ass too! w;-)
This is one of my favorite songs on the album!
Too funny! I have said most of this myself as I visit my social sites.
hilarious and oh so true! this really ROCKS!
Ha ha nice one! ;)
british sound here, you an anglo-phile? Nice !
Cool - like the sitar sound.

Hey wait - that's ME!
A farfeeza, a marimba, a surf beat, and a Dick Dale guitar line. What more could you ask for?!?!
Subtle and pretty from Sha-Pink? And it works!
And now some early Depeche Mode... It's like an updated version of New Life, covered by Thomas Dolby. Damn, guys. Just damn.
Makes me think of Blancmange! Another awesome tune. It sounds like the fun is out in full effect for Sha-Pink this year.
This song is everything I love about Sha-Pink! Awesome B-52's vibe on this tune. Great job, guys. (uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh)
I had an absolute blast working on this track, and it's about ME!!!!!
Fabulous work, Alex. It matters! beep-beep.
This is one of your best vocal performances ever, Brian.
Oh. Meg…. What a fabulous way to round out the album.
The build and the slinky bassline on this tune are so great. And Alex kills the vocals yet again.
I adore the part where Tess's voice breaks up oh-so slightly at about 3:40. Awesome.
I had a lot of fun playing with the effects on Alex's voice on this one. Another great song.
Just lovely, and I really like the build.
Tess lets her voice slink through this song. Just a fantastic vocal.
Another tremendous arrangement.
Alex hit it out of the park on this one, taking a great song and making it even better.
I love the push-pull of this song.
Damn, Andy. Just damn. You're operating on a whole different level, as usual.
