The
new Beagle hat CD is excellent and I'm so happy with it. I said before that I think Beagle hat is the closest you'll ever get to a new Pilot album and that's more true with this CD than "Magical hat". I can't capture that era with my songwriting in the same way that Beagle hat can. It's the combination that works. I contribute to their music and it works so well, I hope you share my delight.
"Scary to me is a world with out you All love would be gone Happiness would leave with it too The spring would call in and say It's not feeling well that day And winter would stay and stay and stay and stay Until the only feelings left to know Would be cold cold cold And even the youth Would sit around like they're old
So I'd better keep you happy Well fed and laughing Even if I have to back down an army Playing a Hip Rock Clown Rapping Break every stereotype known to man Just to see you smile at me I'll consider it a small task Because I love to see you happy that much
And since scary to me is a world without you I'm going to do What ever it takes to be there for you Because you are a large part of my happiness And the extra smile to make you smile Means I'll be taking the road well worth it Clutch Love Because scary is the day our lives are filled With hollow meaning"
"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell."
Thank you for adding me...and your kind words. Coming from musicians of your caliber, it means even more than usual. What can I say about your songs that you haven't heard a million times before? I am a fan! Wishing you the best of everything.
