Jonah Tolchin
&
Tobias The Owl
From ANDRAS JONES: JONAH TOLCHIN returns to the realm of The Pop Oracle with TOBIAS THE OWL. Last time Jonah was on the show it was as part of Marvin Etzioni’s episode. Marvin, it turns out, produced some songs for The Owl, and Jonah met Tobias in Olympia where we were all living a few years ago. I’m still here. The Owl is in Seattle. And Jonah’s all over the place. The point being, there is a lot of synchronicity shared between the 3 of us (and Marvin) and that’s a great starting point for a Pop Oracle session. Feel the brotherhood.
Another little sync: The image we are using for this episode is from a poster for a show Jonah and Tobias The Owl played at The Freemont Abbey. The date, Januray 23rd, is my brother’s birthday.
Mouse
i told my stories to a mouse and he listened through the night
but he disappeared from me when the morning finally came to my bed
but he heard every word i said
on and on i rambled through the night
with the stories that i told him of my life
he spread my verses through the world until the words came back to you
and they echoed in your head and you knew the words i spoke were as true
as when i’d spoken them to you
on and on they rattled in your thoughts
with the feelings that you thought that you had lost
and you said wait i know it’s just a moment and its gone
but it goes on and on and on in my mind
i know you’ve been so lonely there
i wish you’d had a voice to share to tell your stories to a mouse
to a mouse to a mouse
and you said wait i know it’s just a moment and it’s gone
but it goes on and on and on and on in my mind
and you said wait i know it’s just a moment that we lost
but it goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
and on and on and on and on and on
i know you’ve been so lonely there
i wish you’d had a voice to share
to tell your stories to a mouse
to a mouse to a mouse to a mouse
