Andy Smallman Does music get better than this? I'm in the present, mindful and aware, and simultaneously transported to the past. I'm in Seattle, mindful and aware, while simultaneously in Paris. How does Prom Queen do this? Favorite track: Blonde.

Robert Stuart Lucky me to get Doom Wop delivered to my door from my monthly subscription of Artist Home Record Club. Enticed by the pink, I gave it a spin and fell hard. Even better was a listen while reading the long love letter from Leeni about the album. Incredible talent and musicianship captured in the luscious recording. Love the bell clear vocals which sometimes go into a Sonics like overdrive. LOVE the reverb drenched guitar....tasty!

littlepetie I think people are getting tired of me listening to this, but I'm not.

Rodent This is really finger-snapping. "Blonde" says most of it, and what that doesn't say, "End of the World" picks up. It should be our new national anthem. Favorite track: End Of The World.

It's the end of the world and I'm all alone no more streets to roam I'm so blue and the fires still burning though the world stopped turning they'll be no returning of all I once knew I can still find things to laugh about today but tomorrow makes me cry and I still want a friend even though it's the end of the world Now the sun has been hiding and the warmth subsiding and a cold chill lives under my skin but my heart is still beating though it's days are fleeting You can't tell a bird that it shouldn't sing I can still find things to laugh about today but tomorrow makes me cry and I still want a friend even though it's the end of the world I can still find things to laugh about today but tomorrow makes me cry and I still want a friend even though it's the end of the world

Paperweights strike him in the head one, two and three is how I made him love me terrorize his friends and family now how to make him stay? Trap him under pianos and bricks Honey, so indecisive but that's romance! Romance Candy apple hearts are everywhere baby's faces dancing look, there in your hand, another hand it fills the sky with love love Let's make the time (there are children watching) for Pianos and Bricks (hiding from your many sharp objects) Knives and all sharp objects Many sharp objects, many sharp objects Keep you here, I'll keep you here Keep you here, I'll keep you here Keep you here Trap him under pianos and bricks Honey, so indecisive so indecisive so indecisive but that's romance!

Why, why, why? Why, why, why? Why do you dream when you can wake and be with me? Why do you pine when you could be mine, you could be mine, you could be mine? Why do you tell me you're lonely when you could be right here with me? Why do you tell me you're missing me when you could be kissing me? Why do you dream when you could wake and be with me? Why do you pine when you could be mine, you could be mine, you could be mine?

Blonde 04:39
Lately I've been a little catatonic and monosyllabic I'll feel alive some other time (Oh whoa)  We make a plan, even though I'm a little non-committal You say "Let's go out" I say "fine" (Oh yeah)  You find me lying on the floor  1,000 mile-long stare  cause I don't know what to wear Then I say "What if I wanted to be blonde, or shave my head?  Oh-oh-oh, what if I wanted to be someone else instead?  Change my name and throw all of my things into the sea Cause I don't wanna be me (Oh no) Maybe I'll be someone who takes chances and always dances someone responsible and bright (Oh whoa)  Maybe I'll be someone who has grace and a smile on her face someone who makes you feel all right (Oh yeah)  And naturally she'd never stay at home on Friday nights  completely out of sight... So what if I wanted to be blonde or shave my head? Oh-oh-oh what if I wanted to be someone else instead?  Change my name and throw all of my things into the sea  Cause I don't wanna be me (Oh no)  When it's all too much to bear, I'll change the color of my hair Will my cares and all my pain just go washing down the drain?  Or will I just regret it, feeling shallow and lightheaded and self-absorbed Cause I wanna feel so much more And I want to give the world something more than just a girl  who is trapped inside a heavy head that can't get itself out of bed When it all feels out of reach, a little bit of bleach and a magic wand  can turn me blonde!  Oh yeah!  So what if I wanted to be blonde or shave my head? Oh-oh-oh what if I wanted to be someone else instead?  Change my name and throw all of my things into the sea  Cause I don't wanna be me Oh....

Manic Panic 03:38
Do you feel the crushing fear  of a love that disappears in a world where nothing matters  or am I alone here?  No one ever changes But we all try in vain and I can't go one day without crying your name I could tear down the walls what is this feeling?  Am I happy? Or just manic?  Am I dying? Or just panicked  Do you feel the sweet release  from a crashing centerpiece against the wall  when no one's home to oversee? No one there to comfort  or criticize me  No one there to tisk and watch me bleed  I could tear down the walls what is this feeling?  Am I happy? Or just manic?  Am I dying? Or just panicked  And I can tell by the way you're looking at me  that you don't understand  but why do I have to twist your arm if I wanna hold your hand But if life's too short to question everything  Life's too short to wait for anything  Why does it feel so long?  Maybe I'm doing it wrong.  I might be doing it wrong  I could tear down the walls what is this feeling?  Am I happy? Or just manic?  Am I dying? Or just panicked

You broke my heart right from the start You made a fool of me in front of the crowd And vengeance will be mine You had me sighing You had me crying You had me dying always defying And vengeance will be mine You, you, you oh you said that love was true and all, all, all the time you knew you were making one and one of two oh yeah You had me sighing You had me crying You had me dying always defying And vengeance will be mine You, you, you oh you said that love was true and all, all, all the time you knew you were making one and one of two oh yeah You had me sighing You had me crying You had me dying always defying And vengeance will be mine Oh vengeance will be mine

Like the wind on the deep blue sea I move with you, you move with me Like the hair that stands on end I anticipate til we touch again And I will burn until you put me out I would never leave a trace of doubt til the blood drains from my veins and they're twisted into chains But I, I, I never called your name even in the days I wanted to scream to you, babe that I need you Oh I need you Like a kiss on your drying lips I can taste the need that your words eclipse Like a dawn in the sunless sky I'll make January into July cause I'm the burning secret that you always keep down, down deep Sure as the bell tolls over market square Baby, I'll be there But I, I, I never called your name even in the days I wanted to scream to you, babe that I need you Oh I need you But I, I, I never called your name even in the days I wanted to scream to you, babe that I need you Oh I need you

Sand & Smoke 05:32
and and smoke with blue and silver storm clouds in your eyes Breathe me in Breathe me out I can take the lows between the highs And I feel it taking over me carving in the chrome cause you are my one and only home Sand and smoke we're pages stuck together in a bind Bleeding ink Bleeding heart You can read the stories in my mind And I feel it taking over me carving in the chrome cause you are my one and only home And I feel it taking over me carving in the chrome cause you are my one and only hope

Wordless in wonder sleepless in slumber  the lover is always alone chained to her chamber strange to the strangers the lover is always alone  See the lover walking by raging river in her eyes  When the levy breaks  the river takes her away... Giftless the giver floats down this river  of tears shed from being alone loveless the lover weeps for another  the one who has left her alone See the lover walking by raging river in her eyes  When the levy breaks  the river takes her away... The lover she waits in a world of her own cause she never could feel truly at home  in a castle with an ever-vacant thrown she's comfortable being alone alone alone Tearless and crying  fearless and dying  the lover is always alone Somber and smiling  darkness beguiling  the lover who's always alone See the lover walking by raging river in her eyes  When the levy breaks  the river takes her away...

When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained  But darling when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same  Nothin' lasts forever And we both know hearts can change  And it's hard to hold a candle In the cold November rain We've been through this such a long long time Just trying to kill the pain  But lovers always come and lovers always go  No one's really sure who's letting go today  (Walking away) If we could take the time To lay it on the line  I could rest my head Just knowin' that you were mine (All mine) So if you want to love me Then darlin' don't refrain  Or I'll just end up walkin' In the cold November rain Do you need some time on your own Do you need some time all alone oooooh Everybody needs some time On their own Don't you know you need some time all alone I know it's hard to keep an open heart When even friends seem out to harm you But if you could heal a broken heart Wouldn't time be out to charm you  And when your fears subside And shadows still remain  I know that you can love me When there's no one left to blame  So never mind the darkness We still can find a way  Nothin' lasts forever Even cold November rain  Don't ya think that you need somebody Don't ya think that you need someone Everybody needs somebody You're not the only one You're not the only one Don't you think that you need somebody Don't you think that you need someone Everybody needs somebody You're not the only one You're not the only one
