Review of "Cook Up Something New" in Consumable:
"Featuring an amazingly sharp sense of pop song craft and wistful, Tony (Edison Lighthouse) Burrows-caliber vocals bounced off cool, Samba-fied jazzed beats, a Violent Femmes sense of musical and lyrical playfulness, and minor lounge, funk, soul, new age and Charlie Brown piano flourishes - these guys sound sort'a like a hip version of Gerry Rafferty done up as Ben Folds Five for the '90s."
I hope you enjoy my music because it was for you that i created. The record companies don't want to give me a deal because i sound like Michael Jackson,,,they hate him so much, until they don't want anyone who sounds like him.. My song are Orginal with my music. So i had no choice but to keep moving forward on my own. What they fail to realize is that YOU are the judge, not them. My music will speak for me.. it's my voice. How many record companies executives you think buy CD's? "NONE" they get them free. You are my judge if you feel that my music is good..and you truely love my style of songs ( Please leave a comment ) ; You can help me win a record deal from Myspace... just click "Grab it" on the player and copy and paste the Widget of the Cassette on my page to your page, and spread the word.. . here's the link just in case you need it...http://adsupport.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=rockthespace.fan&sproutid=mwDPCQWHCDUR0zX2 thank you for hearing me out... and if you love Gospel music... goto this site ...
At times tryna find the perfect words to say...
could leave you speechless...
fighting to give your heart to someone who doesn't need it, Well...that could possibly leave anyone heartless...
The saddest day of anyones life comes that day when they've had there heart shattered twice
