This is a red barn. But not at dusk. But I think it’s okay that way.
Red Barn At Dusk
Am I the talk of the stage? No. Am I the bride or groom? No. Did you leave me? No. Am I the talk of the stage? No. Did you see my name in lights?
Like they foretold? I liked you then more. Liv, come back! Liv, come back! Don’t you know I have your shoes on my back porch? Am I the talk of the stage? No.
Am I the talk of the stage? No.
Did you show your age for my back?
Oh, every time. Every time. Every time.
This is the last song I completed for the RPM project. It’s over! Guy Capecelatro started the first two tracks of this song, then sent it to Mike who added two. I got it yesterday and worked on it last night. I added two tracks of vocals. These lyrics are improvised. The crying in the end was a weird glitch in my brain that said to me as I was singing, “Hey. Cry here.” Ha! It was funny and when I was done I thought, “Can I really send this?” It was the first take of those vocals and the eleventh-hour was drawing nigh, so I didn’t do them again. Guy wrote back after I sent it to him, “This is so very awesome and unexpected. I’m entranced by the singing. Have you heard Cocorosie? Has a little of that going on, particularly in the near sobbing ending.”
I had not heard of CocoRosie. I LOVE IT!!! And now you can know about CocoRosie, too!
I am tired. I have a show tonight! Yay!
Once again I am feeling great, huge heaping amounts of gratitude for you. Thank you for coming over. Have a spectacular day.
