Indifference

Jan.12, 1996

MP3

Lyrics

Whenever I played that song live I introduced it as a song about a rampant social disease that's especially wide-spread in the part of the world we're living in. You just don't get rich and famous with that sort of stuff...


Wandering Through The Desert


April through July 4, '95

Similar to the previous one, a song in which I admit that I've been getting off the straight & narrow & recognizing the need to find my way back home...

A parallel between my own life and that of the people of Israel wandering through the desert for 40 years after having arrived at the Promised Land and not having the guts to invade it...

Drifting Around

Constance, June 13, '95

In the 80s movie "Made In Heaven" at one point, this guy who plays an angel angel tells his charge on earth that he's not making any progress, just sort of drifting along... I knew that applied to me for the previous couple of years in my life, & this is one of my "prodigal returning home"announcements.

Life's Not a Freeway

August 19, 1994

There's no speed limit on German highways, & people drive accordingly. It can really be murderously dangerous sometimes. This song is for all the "me-first" types on German highways.

Closer Than a Friend

Sept.3, '93

MP3

Lyrics

Folk-Rock ballad I apparently wrote 5 years before I got around to recording it...

Losers Turn Winners

MP3 Lyrics

Probably one of my strongest songs from that time, which is why I recently re-recorded it.
The problem with rich people is that often they act like they're the winners in the game of life and treat all others like losers, when in reality it's not money that determines one's worth,
as I'm pretty sure we'll all see sooner or later...
