Thank you for the send off
It's nice to know you didn't care
and all the years have all gone silent
Im wiping bitter tears
Im not sorry that I told you
what I thought of you was true
because what if I had to spend my whole life
lying to…
~I was a realist, and was an idealist, I was the wind and burned with fire. I became mineralist, but that's what - I still don't know ...~
(by way of you and Nick Mason, the drummer, who sang:
...
Erik Satie gets my rocks off, Cage is a dream
Philip Glass is mineralist to the extreme

Outland (The Ballad of Jarrod X)
words and music by VIVIAN CIRCLE
Mother, why did you lie to me?
I didn't have to make the same mistakes as you.
Father, why did you run away?
There was so many things left unspoken with you.
Jarrod walks…
I've always wanted a submersible. You see, I've got this thing about Alvin!
Lovely piece of music, strings are a special touch and give a sense of calm. beautiful!

Such a sweet girl,
the camera really loves your face
Tall heels and a bullets grace
The creatures gonna eat your name
Such a sad girl
Your mammas gone an let you down

So I've learned a thousand things
for the thousand things I forgot
Too much too soon to see it changing you

We really had a wonderful time working with Sister Savage and we have since inducted her into the band under her new virtual ego: Violet Hemlock!
Thanks Tess!

So Far to Get
Fire on the look-out
he's got me shakin'
Watch me blow it now.
Fire on the lookout,

what, me worry now?

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:
http://alonetone.com/sistersavage/tracks/little-england
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.

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.)
