I’ve been recording / hibernating on my weekends lately. I just finished this one.
The Art Of Deception :: Lyrics
well you did it to me again
like your promise was just pretend
on the way to the family affair
turn your cheek without a care
and you can’t even say a prayer
without feeling guilty anymore…
because your whole damn life
has been a big surprise
yeah your whole damn life
has been a big big lie
well you’re turning me off again
like a dagger cutting in my skin
your words are coming out of your lips
then you told me you gotta go
well I’ll see you honey,
I don’t know who you are
anymore these days
because your whole damn life
has been a big surprise
yeah your whole damn life
has been a big big lie
written and recorded on 12/18/2010 by yours truly.
Time Moves Faster As You Get Closer
Last winter I wrote this song and sequenced old video clips to form a video. I think I’m going to make a few more today…
I looked at my traffic when I got home tonight and the search query made me laugh… but then It made me paranoid since my apartment was broken into last month. Although, since my name is so common, this is possibly an oversight and the “googler” intended this query for someone else…
I don’t make a lot of money compared to most people in NYC, but thanks for asking google. I bet you are the kind of person who asks google other questions such as “is my girlfriend cheating on me?” or “does beer actually make me fat?” - my only suggestion to you mr/mrs. anonymous googler is that you direct your next query to Mr. ask Jeeves over at ask.com and pretend it’s 1999…
yum - she needs jenny owen youngs more than jenny owen youngs needs her…
new goal for 2011.
hmmm is happiness a constant? do we need to experience sadness in order to experience happiness? After the rain, the sun will shine… kind of a thing?
I know this. I’m trying. I really, really am.
Totsy Lands $5 Million In Funding
Exclusive - Totsy, a private sale site targeting moms of kids aged 0-7 (and moms-to-be), has raised $5 million in Series A funding from DFJ Gotham and Rho Ventures. The financing round follows the startup’s recent “acquisition” of competitor bTrendie’s member base.
Totsy is the umpteenth niche-specific (in this case, for everything from prenatal care products, baby gear, travel accessories to children’s clothing and toys) to emerge, following in the footsteps of successful flash sales sites like pioneer Vente-Privée.com, Gilt Groupe and Rue La La.
If you’re in any familiar with the tried model of these sites, you know the drill: Totsy offers its members brand-specific sales on products for expecting moms, parents, babies and kids at sample sale prices, for up to 70% off the retail price. Shopping events are designer-specific and held over a limited-time period, 48 to 72 hours to be exact, for ‘invited’ members only.
One thing I admire about Totsy: the company puts a lot of effort into being completely eco-friendly in its operations, and actually plants trees in the name of members’ kids to help reduce the effects of deforestation.
I know – shopping isn’t really going to ‘save the world’, but I like to think every bit counts.
