Baltic Avenue



How I spent last summer? Making an EP for Vulpiano Records inspired on the lives and career of a band called... The Beatles :)

Thanks to Marilyn Roxie now the album is out. You can read notes and download the EP for free... here! :)

Here's the unchecked songs lyrics

1) RIGHT NOW

Despite the fuss and strife
and bitterness between us
we sit and play the game
to hit the hall of fame
death rattles in the stores of Balcan Evenue
Mustache and morning dress
Charle's ready for the clue

Dark skyes, no stars at all
to break and turn me on
Roll the dice and rock the doll
to move along the board

RIGHT NOW
WE're leaving from the same way we arrived
RIGHT NOW
The greatest rock'n'roll of all the town
RIGHT NOW
Obituary already on the go
RIGHT NOW
The biggest selling prayer for our souls


Flat rates and income tax
won't fit my paying card
look-ma-no-overdubs we're working for the clubs
Small metal token moveing all around the world
Wheelbarros on the rails never losing charm

Retreat to prove we're strong
the lesson we have learned
TInes turning little rooms into their own stage


RIGHT NOW
We're nailing Woodo Swaggers on the tracks
RIGHT NOW
We come together in a single cross
RIGHT NOW
WE try to get away from our hopes
RIGHT NOW
WE're walking barefoot giving cars the halt

2) I NEED SOMEBODY

Hey You! I need somebody
To stop my crying
I need somebody now
Hey You! I need somebody
To carry hard weights
I need somebody now
(To take my love away)

It's time for new directions
Despite Exotic Lands
It's the beginning of the end
An evening of december
I'm struggling to adapt
New York is murdering good taste

Commemorating heroes
for grief-stricken fan
it's a comforting understand

It's an ironic movie
designed for afterlife
and now I'm struggling to escape

So Hey Now...

Celebrity and pressure
are stealing charm from fame
rip-roaring tracks to get acclaimed

A life in technicolor
emerged from black and white
still it's o use with my closed eyes

In search for idealism
on national affairs
I'm singing sad songs to myself

An oddball sens of humor
is what I'm looking for
but now I'm lying on the floor

***

3) TIMES OF TROUBLES

Time of disagreement
Duties and good deals
late night rough opinions
into stratosphere

Womb-like freezing concepts
Every cough we got
must have been a wonder
Dominos at fall

And then
times of troubles
proved we lost
and then
times of troubles
got us wrong

Hope we passed the audition
said the black swan son
grinning from the stair well
looking down for shots

Long hair's string arrangement
seemed totally weird
Few weeks after summer
in a real dream world

got lost
at fall

***

4) ... AND THE STARS

Marylin and Audrey counting
all dalmatians' spots
and the stars


Blessed with a couple of b-sides
Old brown shoes now shine by inner light

Something surfacing from the whi-ite
Harpischords turned out to be alright

Guess that all the planets
were perfectly alligned

Milkyway a river
floating in the night

Moon is taking over
with Jupiter and Mars
and the stars


All the love songs sang on the decade
waits on jukebox money to get payed

Ro-yalties flowting on air-pla-ay
are - the best thing - I'll get from Fra-ank

Carol, Bob and Alice
and the graduate
Sings alongs with cowboys
tuning to F.M.

Amstrong and Grace Kelly
among our friends
and the stars

Fine Fine Fine
Do you think it is good now?
Fine Fine Fine
Is it good for you now?


Elvis, Bobby Darin
Jerry Lee and Paul

Gladys Knight and Martha
Frankie Avalon

Look out for Aretha
Smokey Astair Fred
And the stars

***

5) FAR AWAY

Far Away
I never meant to stay
any way
there's no one left these days

From
the lane
some music moving through my head
I woke up
with your notes on my bed

I stood up
begun to
play
chords
from the dream I got
it's no surprise
that I recalled
you
mad
at my blood songs
where them my own, anyway?

Far away
my wait seemed inappropriate
here and now
no one comes my way

Getting out
won't make my jailers very proud
all I need's a stage
to play my show
send the crowd
away

The Rise


Today a little pack was left on my desk. It came from London. It was from Philip. Id est: LeBleu.

The Concept album "The Rise and Fall of LeBleu" is out. You can check the song I helped to write and sing in our space.

Here's the first review:

GIBBERISH

"Le Blue is an occasional concept band driven by Edinburgh based musician, Philip Lockwood Holmes. His second album, released via Google Checkout is now available and is an imaginative and pretty ambitious travelogue through the history of civilisations that have risen and fallen over the eons. ... / The stand out track, Rock in the Empire, in collaboration with Mark Zonda from Tiny Tide verges on Rock and Roll."



You can find the album HERE.



Here's he lyrics:

" Checking all the maps that brought me here
Noise still in my head
Places at my back crossed with an x
Red marks on my path

Engine waiting still and cold at touch
Nations in my hands
Wondering how hard was for a man
To ride from land to land

Ages since I held your marble arms
Far away from here
Once you were the centre of the World
Then you crawled in fear

AND ALL THAT WE HAVE LEFT
IS ROCK IN THE EMPIRE
ALL THOSE THICKY STONES THROUGH YOU AND ME

RUINS EVERYWHERE AND ROCK IN THE EMPIRE
BURNING MILES AND MILES THROUGHT YOU ANE ME

Dancing to the sound of drums and claps
Conquered by a smile
You won’t turn me down, your faith and pride
Won’t shake these walls tonight

Dates are numbers on a paper killing moments cut of labour nailing our future to the past
You rope me in some romantic jokes

Holding on the power till I’m done
To live each spark of life
Free at last from orders, can’t realize
I’m still a slave to vice

Blinking lights are flashing over people pop and fade in new positions bringing balance to the dance
Colliding in your Jin & Coke


AND ALL THAT WE HAVE LEFT
IS ROCK IN THE EMPIRE
ALL THOSE THICKY STONES THROUGH YOU AND ME

RUINS EVERYWHERE AND ROCK IN THE EMPIRE
BURNING MILES AND MILES THROUGHT YOU ANE ME

Shut your silly voice and hide that smile
time are changing fast
Keep apart the triumphs and the best
And give them all the rest

When it’s over dark come closer killing sparks and blowing moments cloaking every witness on the track
Grey sparrows picking off the bread

I was never meant to be afraid
I was never meant to be afraid
I was never meant to be so late
I was never meant to save a pray

Dazzles coming in a thunder drawing circles over temples leaving all that beauty at their back
Black leather in some ionic slams

Killing all the conquests of the past
Killing all the conquests of the past
Lead away the future from the grave
Throw dices on that muddy lap

Coming home with no solutions for my august revolution pulling off the helmet from the head
Was your world ready for this mess"
