Velvet Starlings
From ANDRAS JONES: VELVET STARLINGS are CHRISTIAN GISBORNE, RONI WIEDEMAN & MICHAEL WHITTEMORE. The week they joined us for their Pop Oracle session they were down from their home in Chico, California to play some shows in LA. The week this is coming out they are on tour in the UK. These impossibly young, incredibly talented rockers are literally going places and I am excited to witness their trajectory. It’s this and our shared love of The Who’s “Lifehouse” that inspired me to ask my question about balancing the “purity with the bullshit”.
Today’s randomly chosen Pop Oracle song from the R8B app is one of my own and I think it’s mighty appropriate for this inter-generational bit of grid magick.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (June 2, 2019): ANDRAS JONES “The Webpage of Dorian Gray”
Chasing Time
Hide the truth coz their afraid it learn from fools with plastic vibes
I refuse to play their game so brother your wasting your time
Spend your youth on tiny screens and we’re fed the news and swallow lie – I’m with you if it’s the end
You Know w’ell
Be dressed to the nines
Coz everyone’s just chasing time
And every once in a while we can smile and we can love everyone love everything.
The kids come in droves there in vogue coz they know there in style. Ah everyone ah everything
Ah ah ah love everyone – keep chasing down the fun – til we head into the sun
Time – there’s no time to be yourself your busy being someone else we’re always Chasing time – and all of its fleeting
Time is always slipping though our hands – busy making other plans – always Chasing time –
Love is truth and we’re not faking it
I refuse to waste my time
In corporate zoo’s so we’re escaping
Give them sarcastic smile
Hello as we’re waving goodbye
And every once in a while we can smile and we can love everyone love everything.
The kids come in droves there in vogue coz they know there in style. Ah everyone ah everything
Ah ah ah love everyone – keep chasing down the fun – til we head into the sun
