about

I met the Reverend John DeLore at a flashmob music festival on a subway to Coney Island when I was living in New York City. We decided to release split 7” vinyls together that would be named after our favorite bartender, The Canadian Patriot Waitress. It’s a long story. Anyway, this song will be on one of those split singles one of these days. It’s more or less about the reoccurring existential crisis that follows concerts to audiences that don’t seem to give a shit. We recorded it in New York at Rubber Tracks Studio. It’s some studio that Converse shoes owns. They let us record for free and gave us shoes. Pretty good deal. Tim Neuhaus, who plays drums in the Blue Man Group in Berlin and with the German pop-star Clueso, is one of the nicest guys on earth… and an awesome drummer. He was on tour with me in the US when we recorded this and he is the backbone of the song. The horn section is a nice touch too.

lyrics

after a long night of drinking i was looking at myself in a broken hotel mirror in a broken little town thinking to myself how did i end up here so I picked up a pen wrote something down and those words are what you hear - but nothing at all came out least nothing worth writing about and is it strange for me to doubt that anyone cares how i feel i mean seriously who? - i had this stirring in my gut and a shaking in my hands like every country song like every book i read romanticizing traveling, girls, and drinks so i picked up a guitar and i strummed the strings i opened up my mouth and i tried to sing - but nothing at all came out least nothing worth writing about and is it strange for me to doubt that anyone cares how i feel i mean seriously do you? - but i’ll use you for an ear least a wedge to hammer between here and there i don’t get paid enough to lie but you use me just like i use you a mirror we see each other through alone together and trying to deny
