.................................................. .........

"Drastically Beautiful"

drastically beautiful
we were only sixteen
we trashed all our clothes
as we drank english tea

glittered eyes sparkle
we laughed all the while
rose tinted lips
could we manage a smile?


a killer kiss syndrome
not a whisper in the park
those eyes wink apon me
too strange to see the dark

a shooting starlette gone ahead
a shooting star that left them dead
alone in all the world
a shooting struck my baby girl



....please give me feed back tho, cheers!!

I can't listen to the song, as soundclick hasn't cleared it yet. Anyway, from the lyrics....erm... well, "english tea" seems a bit of an odd phrase, I'd never ask someone for a cup of "english tea", I'd just ask for "tea". It's not like Starbucks, there's not usually a million different teas on offer in most places that serve hot drinks. Anyway, doesn't most of the tea sold in England come from India anyway?

That's all I have for you, I'm afraid. I like the idea in the last verse though, if not so much the execution (pun intended).

Well, I figured it was either...well..tea, or grass, or something sexual and filthy. Alcohol never entered my mind. (Well, it was late, that's the only excuse I can give.)

I suppose it makes some sense, what with the pub culture and all that - alcohol is probably the third most commonly-used drug behind caffeine and nicotine in the UK (fact made up off the top of my head there, but it sounds about right). In that case, good job. Maybe I can hear the music now, I'll try.

Yeah, I listened to it, kind of a "Marc Bolan-meets-Syd Barrett" feel, to my ear anyway. Ropey lo-fi production, and not the kind of thing I'd usually play by choice, but I can see an audience for stuff like that.

i think its really really good...and refreshingly different to a lot of stuff you read on here. (i'm not saying other stuff is bad...its just nice to have something different and good as well!)

i love the focus on the eyes and lips, its sexy and really effective. the whole thing is kind of quirky and i'm a sucker for quirkiness, so yeah...i love it and wouldn't change a thing. would like to have heard it tho....please put the link back up! i record at home too and when you are a poor student like me with bollocks equipment its really hard to get high quality work. i can see past the low quality...just really wanna hear it!
