dear frank charlemagne

a promise is to be taken with a grain of salt; these were recorded in 2000 and 2003, respectively. keep it in mind.

1. live goodnight elizabeth

2. clover

that second song? oh, it's about the reason (boy) i moved to california. uhm, he had dreadlocks. enough said.

oh, and it was recorded in a bedroom in foster city, california with an mp3 player and a microphone. i'm pretty sure myself and the cellist were both pantsless.

fucking PRICELESS, my late teen years.

love,
lindsay

The business of the day done and the household at peace, I crept off to my sanctum. It was no time at all until I was listening.

Within minutes, the bride came by to ask me to turn it down (an unusual violation of protocol). I was vastly annoyed, but acceded upon hearing her explanation.

My son, it seems, had risen from his bed one floor away from me, and was wandering the halls in search of the lady with the pretty voice.

You be careful with that stuff, kiddo.

Dude. A tiny bit lower and add some end of song chorus-centric harmony and you could so be on the road with #2. Seriously. You are the awesome.

i will say i'm fairly mostly envious. reminds me of a cross between very early (as in the purple tape era) lisa loeb and the murmurs. very cool. :)
