Great band. My brother and I listened to them on KCRW when driving around LA in 2009. Give your leftover change from the ice cream savings away.

Waiting is Living
Written By Fictional Name
Wandering out of innocence, they look at you and lick their lips. I'm drunk as hell with shivers in my spine.
It could take awhile, feelings in aisles, forming lines for many miles. So, say things…

Auto Machine

People there are machines
Same thing everyday
Slowly losing feeling
Until they get paid
But can't dare mention or question
What is a living wage?
And no emergency savings
To get out of this…

Humanatee
Written by Fictional Name
I walked away
from the choices I made
I'm lucky I can get old every day
A surprising reminder
I wish I had been kinder
In the words I never chose to say
Just listen to suspicion
Just go and pack…

Such A Bad Way
Written By Fictional Name
There’s some wine in the closet
There’s some beer in the fridge
Some people coming over
You know how it is
With all of the features
And of the fraud
Didn’t you miss me
Breaking all sorts of laws…

(Don’t Know Why) I’m Happy I’m Alive
Written By Fictional Name
Maybe if I just spent my time a little wiser
I could write myself a reminder
Frostbite has taken both of my thumbs
Language is what they're afraid of
It's a game of mystery…

Oleander Season

It’s oleander season
The cold is turning cool
The reeds are getting sharper
Lying in the pool
Millions of fireflies
Coming from the east
Songs of tomorrow
Songs of the beast
It’s oleander…

Love Is A Realization
Ate alone at a dead gas station
I don’t know my life
Filled up while sitting naked
I don’t wanna be right
They all run when they hear the sirens
Away like mice from lights
When everything returns to silence
Crawl…

Sometimes That Feels Like Going Home

Love is a song that only angels have sung
We try to harmonize but no one ever does
We’ll just scream until we lose our voice
And sometimes that feels like going home...

She Cries Diamonds
Written By INT'L
She cries diamonds
Only when she’s sad
She cries diamonds
Only when she’s sad
She’s drowning in diamonds
Because everyday is so bad
She cries diamonds
When she's out in the rain
She cries diamonds…

Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…

What else can be said of the last 12 months? Everybody wants a piece of my time. Get in line.
The riff came first and I walked around for days just banging it out non-stop. Hammer-ons for fun and pleasure...

Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…

Ok, this one has a journey for its creation. The original riff actually came to me in the heat of late August 2013. I still remember when it came to me. It was in a different key, with a slight different resolution. It felt like a hot summer's…

And now a complete change. I like variety, and this introduces a new feel to the record. Until the mid-section, when the spacey connection returns, though in a subtle way.

The Again, Again, Again line and melody has been flowing through my brain since 2017 or so. But if we are merely vessels for songs that are waiting to come to our shores, I was a leaky boat for a very long time and couldn't make the journey without…

Similar to a couple of other tunes this year, the How Many More? chorus idea has been floating around my addled head for a few years, but again, it wouldn't come to shore. But in promising my ideas that I never give up on them, I tried it again…

I saw her dancing, like the light on the ocean,
I lay back down, looked up to the sky.
The sun beat red and joined the horizon,
the day was fading as she was coming alive.
As the sun set on Bloody Foreland,
I lay by the sea, dreamt on a…

We're so quick to judge others. We really shouldn't.
This one follows the tone of It Mattered To No One Else. I actually had a lot more song ideas like these two that I thought would end up being the whole record. But it didn't happen that…

I see the fire on the mountain,

I tend to just say a filler line and that ends up being the only lyric I have time to ever (never) develop.

As I have mentioned in other years, I am so very blessed to have some songs come to me in my dreams. Grace is one of them. The specific line "Grace, grace, grace! You don't have to be a lonely child" is what I retained in my waking moments so…

Again, like "All The Good Notes Are Taken", I needed to use this title so I just came up with some music. The "song" is because of the title!
