Summertime in Boston, and this little tune is about how it goes by way too fast. Some hilarious chatter between the guys before and after they kick of a pseudo-psychedelic groove that I hope you will enjoy.

Miles Away is a very simple guitar riff and lyrics that match, but it's a song that came from the heart of one of the band's members. It's kind of a tune about a newly married couple...like most Prood songs it was recorded after one or two rehearsals…

I gave this a day before I decided to comment...this song is wonderfully disturbing. Your lyrics are simple but clever and they make me want to pick up the guitar and get to work!

(Song 4)
Hair net tossed on the table
Name tag still pinned to my shirt
Work boots wait on the front step
but they might walk out on me too
I've got no one left to care for
No one left to hear my prayer
Talking to the kitchen window…
(Song 3 this year)
When you're younger,
you're everything or so it seems
Then you start becoming a ghost in the years between
People say things about you like
"He was always so nice"
"Such a good guy" , "Such a shame"
or " he always…
You were here then you were gone
Crystal black in morning cold
Hand too tired to touch the earth
Or stars above Moravia
Born under a silent moon
At your feet the hens and mules
Bay and cry, I know they do
Here I am, and where are you…
I love this....I was just looking at the weather forecast for Nashville...I'm surprised to see it's just as crummy down there as it is up here in Boston. Well, you've certainly caught MY frame of mind with this improv.
Half my life has settled into
Time to try the things we never
Make your mind up about it
White third eye embroidered on the
Waves wash out the water green and
Serpentine the river bending
And I’ve wasted half the night
Counting cards…
sometimes Reg realises what he truly wants but most of the time he's oblivious ...
All i want is Honest Love
The tangled web is woven with care
The spider doesn’t want you to know its there
It wants to catch you by surpise…
And now He knows.......
And now i know
Long before I knew there was something smoldering anyway
Something you said was real but it was meant as a throw away
decayed inside my mind like a clue
Like a clue of foul play
That…
Reg can be a callous bastard sometimes ......
What you don't know ain't gonna hurt you
Now you know I’m not gonna tell you honestly
About the dreams in my life that never came true
The love of my life that cut me in two
About the…
Remember the cul-de-sac nights
cold beer, a cigarette to share
the creak of our old porch swing
smoke curled like chinese dragons in the air
Chorus
The porch light flickers,
But it’s not lit for me anymore.
I know there’s nothing waiting…
Reg had some terrible news that would break any man ......
How it rains down on me
In the early morning of the 14th April
Two days before the rain
Took the smile from my face to turn it to pain
Taking my smile from my face…
This is the last one. Letting go is not something I am good at, but this is the last one.
--
You could feel your mother and your father scold,
But you only regret what you fail to behold.
After all, it was a once in a lifetime scene…
Brett...I know you don't come around this old site much anymore, but I hope that you at least get this message.
This is one of the BEST songs I've heard on this site. (Yes, better than my previous favorite, Cindy Loveless which is also great!)
Its Christmas Day and the family are finally together even though it's only for the day .....
It's Christmas Day
Christmas Day its finally here
Its been too long a journey now to get us all to appear
We’ve been spread out…
Within hours of being posted, and here I am to dig your music....super song!
One thing I've missed about UK in the eighties, when all the popular groups would do a Chrissy-tune!

makes me think of early mothers of invention,and that's a good thing.
Very nice! I don't think I've heard this one before. Great melodies as usual.
Really enjoyed This!! Ya'll are awesome!!
This makes me want to join a death cult just to get into their glee club.
I've got no monopoly on clever... Especially like, "Is there nothing you believe in that could not withstand a scrutinous review?"

What an obvious subject for a fun song so many of us overlooked. Please include the lyric in your "about" section. I want to hear all the words.
Hi Joe and Matt....good song, you've been talking about Jonestown for almost a year! Glad you could find art within the trauma!
So original and different. Like the melody guys. Excellent song!
Very creative idea for a song. I think they are all singing from the heavens now.

I love it...kept waiting for a hook that never came, but I guess that's what made it compelling.
Great lyrics.
Hypnotic....mesmerizing, and aptly named. Great.
It's a beautiful song.....and it speaks to those of us of a certain age. Bravo, Nick.
Wonderful.

You again with Neil! Well, again...a cool rendition of a NY tune.
Woo. This is great….it’s like a song that each one of the Beatles might have written after they broke up.
Nice….very nice. Someday I’ll ask you to explain how one might pronounce TwoRegs.
Soulful…..terrific.
The trippy vocal effect is an interesting choice, I like it, it surprised me. Great lyrics.
Another nicely worded song…You’ve nailed it.
Not a NY guy, but this is an excellent interpretation of his stuff.
Very nice.
Beautiful song......hoping for the best for Reg.
Very nice. I admit, it got me in the feelies.

Nice....but ya buried the didjeridoo! Real cool music.
Wow...I love this. It's definitely a track I'll be coming back for.
