new song pour vousss
i wrote and recorded a new song that you can listen to and download from my purevolume thingy, called "don't bother". it's about... uh... a tropical storm... and... some stuff that's been on my mind, or something?

don't bother - 15 june 2006

there was a tropical
storm out my window
the cats were asleep and alive
and she still loved me
someone once told me
the future is history
and the past is still happening
and the present's a mystery

but i didn't believe them
cos i don't believe anything
whether i read it or see it on tv
everything is far away
and i'm in my head all day
and nothing is bothering me


it was raining as hard as this
as hard as it ever did
but this is the future
and that was a funeral
and it's typical, isn't it
to think of it as a catalyst
the death of a loved one
like you're shot from a giant gun

but i didn't feel that way
cos i don't feel anything
unless i get to read it or rent the dvd
everything is far away
and i'm in my head all day
and nothing is bothering me


well, the golden age
is gonna end before it starts
i'm gonna make a million friends
and then i'll throw them all away
just like the old ones
see i've got a vested
interest in breaking hearts


i had all the answers
right there in front of me
but i spent all day sleeping
and playing nintendo
someone once told me
the journey of a thousand miles
starts with just one thought
in your head

but i don't think i thought it
cos i never think at all
i only read comic books and the words on the tv
everything seems far away
but it's gonna be here one day
the future's as tall as a tree
but i wouldn't know it
cos i don't know anything
and nothing is bothering me

nothing is bothering me
nothing is bothering, nothing is bothering
nothing is bothering me

Not how I expected you to sound. It's good though. I might play it at the station, those college kids like sounds like this.

Also, do you know if anyone else had a problem with the printing on thier Scott Pilgrim books? Some of the ink bled pretty bad in my copy.

i was gonna make a poll about that (the ink bleeding) today, but i didn't.

it's there on one or two pages in most copies, but apparently some are really bad. it's not my fault, it was the printing press... nothing i can do about it, unfortunately.

i didn't figure you could. i was just curious. i don't think it makes anything too indiscernable though. i haven't read the whole thing yet though.

...interesting question...i don't really have any idea at this point. i guess i thought you'd sound like scott pilgrim, since i hadn't seen a single picture of you until that purevolume thing. more high pitched? i dunno.

I like how it's true in the way of how many people are and think (with the nintendo and comic books and all).
Personally, it's very me. But I'm pretty lousy when it comes to video games...

I'm only busy if you consider playing Animal Crossing and watching Arrested Development all the time being busy! I mean, I work sometimes, I guess. We still don't talk enough, though!!

I was thinking that we could do another awkward songz type thing, but this time I would do most of the mixing and production. Maybe we can just a do a 6 song EP or something.

Okay! I have this idea for a two person song also! Kind of like a unicorns song, but more like one of our songs?

Entirely too close to home. Lyrically, this thing is a rock. It's hard to say whose feet you're holding to the fire: yourself, or the listener?

Damn good.

Did you overdub yourself for the bridge?

yeah, it's just two overdubbed tracks. (at the end, too)
i'm really happy with the lyrics.

I can't tell you how horrible it was to discover that your music is as good as your comics. Please be less talented, please. : )

I hate you! I still don't have a copy of Scott 3 because you were too famous at MoCCA. Now I'm gonna have to pay money for it like regular people. REGULAR. :(

Nah, you don't have to put yourself out. I'm super-rich, I can just buy one. Or all of them. Whichever.

(now you're going to poop in it and mail it to me)

Whenever I listen to your music I can't imagine anyone else playing on the Scott Pilgrim Soundtrack but Kupek.
(Except for whoever winds up playing the parts The Boys! And Crash! and Clash at Demonhead)
