about

Bringing in the new year with something old!

Hello again! Thanks for coming back!
This month's song is one of the first songs I ever wrote when I was playing under the name, "The Good Robot Usses" (Bill & Ted reference). For some reason, I could never let go of these old songs and just leave them in the past. Other examples of this would be Chronic Town which was recorded and released by This Good Robot 10 years later and even The Human I Am which was originally the worst song I ever wrote. Back then we called it Sexy Party... it was terrible.
So anyway, I rewrote this one about a year ago with a little help from Joe Ragosta (of Patent Pending... and my family) and recorded it with producer Nick Zinnanti @ Zin Records NY.

Performing on the single:
Michael Ragosta
Andrew Sclafani
Robert Ragosta
Nick Zinnanti
Ryan Linzer

lyrics

Play us a new beat
Something catchy and fast
Play something quick so we can meet girls and dance
and this bar we can finally tip our hats to
Farewell

And sing here's to us and our loneliness
It's a miracle we should meet
because you feel like home
and that's where I want to be

Now you walk into a room filled with "I love you"s and "I love you too"s
and the ground is covered with fake fog
just like a prom from that old tv show
the last scene's song is always slow
and from the ceiling a thousand balloons will fall
you make it happen
when I thought no, no none of this could be real
you make it happen
when I thought no, no none of this could be real

Because this is my life and I can't believe how seldom I feel like me
but with you I'm home
and thats's where I want to be

I know love sometimes hurts
but when I need you the most
I know you will be there
I'm safe and sound
because baby I'm yours
And when you lean on me
I'll know just what to say
everytime you feel hurt
I swear I'll take all that hurtin away

and sing here's to us and our loneliness
it's a miracle we should meet
because you feel like home
and home is where I want to be
yeah you feel like home
so stay here with me
won't you stay here with me
so stay here with me
