Lyrics

was it the sun/or the heat
that turned you so bittersweet...
and made you drink/made you lie
between your teeth
between your smile...

oh my/my sweetness...
nothing ever stung me like this:
like this lime...

and when you came undone
much to my surprise,
i was so badly stung
i thought that i would die..

as soon as you fall
from limbs that hold you,
you're swallowed by
the earth below you...

-if only for a while
you'll know nothing more
than sunshine...

	Welcome back I was wondering when we'd hear a new song with a fruity title. You make it sound so easy. Well worth the wait, Jon. Check out my latest song called Ballad of The Little Tiki

How much time do you think I have to listen???
This must be the longest jonx tune ever recorded? A wonderful
addition to your soon-to-be-released fruit CD. I really like this flavor
of the month - Lime. In fact, this is my favorite jonx tune since "black
braid." It reminds me of "black braid," something about the
instrumentation, the synths. I don't want to get all sappy on you, but
listening to this put a smile on my face, was like seeing an old friend
and remembering how much you like him. An excellent piece.

nice flava!
the should be a flavourites list! :)

Seriously I would be interested in some details in how you record. It's one reason I like checking out music here, to get some insight how the music is created. But I'm a nerd, totally not cool, I know!

Reminds me of a fun Peter Gabriel tune. Which means high quality and undeniable good.

Check out my latest song called Weather or Not w/awigze

	another gorgeous tune Great new tune, Jonx. Such a great lyrical concept. The music has such a free flowing structure without being unhinged at all, just a natural dance. Really stellar production that allows all the wonderful little details and textures to shine just right. Limes friggin' rule!! Check out my latest song called From Nothing

Great Hardware
Beautiful, beautiful song. Your voice may be the best I've heard here. Song writing is great too. I was skeptcal of the insanely high rating score at first, but now I see it is well deserved. And thanks for giving lime's some respect! Everyone uses and abuses the lime, but nobody gives them credit for the drink enhancing, sweet/sour fruit that they are.

Check out my latest song called These Few Words

	Lime Water Ice Liked the lyric and instrumentals very much. If I were to nit-pic I would comment on the crispness of the consonants at the begining of the tune and the relative softness at the end - which I prefer. Thanks for the tune.
