Description
A cheery ditty about narcissistic self aborption - manic depression style. the humor is intentional! my homage to Badfinger and other riff-pop bands from Big Star onwards.

Lyrics
don't talk about anything at all to me
don't talk about love or anything deep - it's gonna sound cheap
don't talk about the 'good ol' times' if they don't exist anymore
I would think that you'd expect to get a little bit more

tell me all about your life and how it's so complete
tell me everything I'm hangin' on the edge of my seat
tell me all about your star sign, honey, I could stare at your chart all night
tell me everything but don't go into the light

maybe I've been waiting for somebody tonight
someone gonna fix it up and make it alright
the highs are real high, but the lows are real low
lower than you'd think.......
you don't want to know......

tell me all about your schemes and your dreams, as well
I'll be chokin' on the fumes but I like the smell
I've been waiting for the shoe to drop but it won't come any time soon
help me catch my breath I think that I'm beginning to swoon

maybe I've been waiting for somebody tonight
someone gonna fix it up and make it alright
the highs are real high, but the lows are real low
lower than you'd think....
you don't want to know....
you don't want to know

Nice track!
Good performance and production... it kind of reminds me of Joe Jackson's stuff. I like that guitar melody that you have on this one
Cheers for sharing

Loved it
I loved "Love Remains" and then I hear this one and I'm blown away. Agree with the J.Jackson comment, but I think it's more Stelly Dan, which I love.
How is the City these days?(I'm from there)
You have to be my favorite Macjammer. I'll check out your other stuff later.
F-ing great.

What texture!
Hey Brian,

Loved the texture of this tune. Very sparce and raw then smooth and rich. "The highs are real high, and the lows..."

Well done, high marks.

yummy
and pop brilliance. such a cool collection of instruments and the mix is terrific. Love the big instrumental riff lines before and during the vocals.

You have such a great voice. Your ear for the perfect hook & harmonies is outstanding. I like it. I'm envious :-)

love your sound
damn fine vocals -- not over sung and not over done. Bravo for the compelling performance and lasting hum-ability. :-) I'm a fan. We don't have enough harmonica 'round here.

Almost Eagles style.
This sounds very much like a song you'd have expected the Eagles to do, but with a little more aggressive use of sounds from the 21st century added to their already full sound.
This is a keeper for me, I love it. Of course I was young when the Eagles were young so it really works for me.

Great job on the mix and the song as a whole.
