Ideal words by TJC music by Vivian Circle
Your porn makes me jealous
When I think I’m in love
And the televisions not there
I want a boy that shakes it
That makes the most of everyday
A sense of humor
and all those sorts of things…
There I go again, thinking
You might have something to say
Some sympathy for me?
I’ve worn out my welcome tonight
And it’s freezing on this desert trip
I’ve been screaming at the slightest things
And Robert Blake smiles
On the tv by…
There I go again, thinking
You might have something to say
Some sympathy for me?
I’ve worn out my welcome tonight
And it’s freezing on this desert trip
I’ve been screaming at the slightest things
And Robert Blake smiles
On the tv by…
There I go again, thinking
You might have something to say
Some sympathy for me?
I’ve worn out my welcome tonight
And it’s freezing on this desert trip
I’ve been screaming at the slightest things
And Robert Blake smiles
On the tv by…
This was the last song I recorded for the Gowns album, finishing it with a lasting tribute to my friend and mentor, Mr. George Difficult. Our good friend Doug Jablin, a DJ at KUNV in George's old time slot, played this track during a tribute show dedicated to George. I remember driving around Vegas listening to the show with Lisa and my bass playing friend Sam. I remember Sam tear up in the rear view mirror as this song played out. It was an amazingly emotional time for all.
George loved Billie Burke...I only knew of her from the Wizard of Oz, playing Glinda the good witch...George had tons of her old movies on VHS. I remember watching her and realizing that the voice she had in OZ was the voice she had in real life.
George introduced me to the writings of Bryon Gysin and William S. Burroughs. He was extremely well read and had stacks of books in his room all in various degrees of being read. They would always change the next time I went over. He was a wealth of information and intellect.
One of the lynch pins of George's untimely passing had to do with him pruning a tree in his back yard in the wee hours of the morning. He was drinking a bit...and fell, breaking his arm I believe...or leg...I don't remember which...this led him to getting pain killers..and the rest is unfortunately Vegas history. He passed away in his sleep about a week after the incident with the tree. As far as I know, the tree is still there.
Lyrics:
I've got these dreams that take me higher
I've got a soul that has a strange desire
I want to get me a Maserati, drink all night and wake up at 3
There ain't nothing wrong with me, I'm just a victim, I'm just victim of Consumption…
"YES! More of this please. " -Barney
"She lifts her head from the table, squinting beautiful eyes, her hair all jangles and minx. Through her whiskey breath she whispers, and through a haze of cigarette smoke, she could hear the band play....and they sounded like this."
-Vivian
close your eyes and imagine a glu concert-- what does it look like? describe this fake show to me... what would you want to see?
Oh, almost forgot. Many sounds, like these pretty cellos were found on freesound. I did manipulate the pitch on…
I'm better at using my pots and pans for music than for food, so I post this tune in hunger. 3 pots, 1 pan, and a tabla.
"i'm just a gangsta in the jungle" recorded in the amazon. It's actually a part of a monologue that I will likely never post…
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!
Original track by Sister Savage:

This one is pure pop. Voice pitched 1/2 step up.
Sister Savage has a little star in this track!
Melody based on 'ah! vous dirai-je, Maman,' by Mozart.. the original composer. I think it's the first and second variation of 12, but that was like 15 years ago that I learned the piece so I have…
This is just so freakin awesome that I can't believe it just found me, late at night on the comp. and this tune came up whilst I was rooting around the favorites list...amazing..I just love it and thats the best I can do.
Comments on VIVIAN CIRCLE 's stuff
Really enjoying Hearts in Chaos, but this track stands out to me. You've got a wonderful imagination, sir.
Agree with L17 - love your vocals.
This is a tremendous song. It reminds me of The Cure circa 1986. I do wish the vocals were a bit more prevelant, though.
Had me at the 1st bar. EXCELLENT track! w;-)
Strong song, well delivered! Love the backing vocals too. The music is really great!
Wonderful music. Thumping fab percussion.
This one crept up on me and I realised I was right in there. What a great track.
I would still like your vocals further forward. You have such an attractive, whispery, delivery. Very nice!
The strings here are so lovely. A very beautiful track. Very haunting stuff!
I like the touch of intermittent percussion. A really cool song.
Lovely music, lyrics and vocal. Yes, it's lovely! Sudden ending!
This is a great collection of songs, really enjoying it
My option again, one of your best tracks written. w;-)
Another wonderful track VC! w;-)
Nice one!. My fave so far on this album
Absolutely wonderful. Just that. k & w ;)
This one had us from the first five notes. Wen says this might well be the best song you've ever done. Big Props, y'all. ;-) k & w
Love it, I will listen to more on a better sound system that will do your music justice
Love it - it's entrancing!
Cool song! Just directed some friends here to "Silver" and they're all saying good things as well!

Sweet closing tune.
Love your new tunes. Your vocals on these remind me of the Ramones a bit, really cool.

Great work. This reminds me of after hours bars. dreamy afternoons, and long liquid lunches. Lovely.
Sweet.
Exquisite!

I like the guitar part on this tune, the keyboards remind me (pleasantly) of good eighties music (there was some.)
