about

The first of three quick demos (you may notice they all use the same rhythm track) not meant for public consumption but what the hell. I recorded these three old Capital Models songs with the intent of trying (for the umpteenth time) to get the current band to play the original stuff from 1980. I hold out little hop but we'll see...

lyrics

I see your reflection on my TV screen
I hear what you say but I don’t see what you mean
I used to know you once when I was young
You used to speak to me till I got a tongue

And I sense say what do you mean
And I know say what is the scene
I used to have my dreams if you know what I mean

You used to think of me till I thought for myself
But all you could see was myself in yourself
I feel my ambition rise up in me
I feel my heart beat but I know I’m not free

And I sense say what is the scene
And I know say what do you mean
I used to have my dreams if you know what I mean

I’ve got my own opinions locked up inside
But what’s an opinion if it can’t take sides
I know I’m old enough to be my own boss
But what good’s a life if you can’t give it what it wants

And I sense say what do you mean
And I know say what is the scene
I used to have my dreams if you know what I mean

Walk a little talk a little make some conversation
Walk a little talk a little be a congregation

And I sense say what do you mean
And I know say what is the scene
I used to have my dreams if you know what I mean

You know what I mean

Cloudland Blue Quartet Edinburgh, UK

A quartet in name only, initially influenced by Fripp & Eno's "No Pussyfooting" and The Velvet Underground's debut, songwriter & soundscaper David Reilly started musicking in 1977 by creating drones using sellotape on the keys of his dad's Bontempi Organ.
