here’s your christmas song.
recorded in 2006 at jack straw productions as part of the soundtrack to a beautiful short film by alan blake called sometimes…and always in a dream.
featuring myself, aimee zoe tubbs, moe provencher & mike mcdermott.
two different things (two different versions).
just me, from this morning:
scandalmonger, from a couple days ago:
two different things [scandalmonger] (mp3)
evan flory-barnes : bass
lalo bello : percussion
_______________
don’t want to see anybody,
don’t want to be alone.
don’t want to say that i love you,
don’t want to say that i don’t.
don’t want to stay any longer,
don’t want to go nowhere.
don’t want to preach to the choir,
don’t want to hear about how much you care.
the things that you say and the things that you do,
tell me two different things, which one is true?
don’t want to tell you about it,
and i know that i can’t keep it hid.
you’ll say that you never noticed,
and i’ll say that i know exactly what you did.
the things that you say and the things that you do,
line it all up just right, that’s how you’ll know you’re you.
don’t want to go by the numbers,
don’t want to take it on faith.
maybe i never noticed.
because the things that you say and the things that you do,
tell me two different things and i know they’re both true.
“spell it out for you just in case you can’t see straight.”
spekulation. i am lucky to know this man & to get to work with him.
live @ egan’s | november 2009
no microphone on the piano, and it gets a little clippy at the parts where i get loudest — but i am grateful none the less to the folks at egan’s for providing a recording.
