Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) This enchanting little EP made me happy today. It's an exceptionally lovely kind of folk rock, with traits of what's frequently called "baroque pop". Sometimes I'm losing hope that something like this still can be created nowadays... "Bombadil" gave me new hope. Favorite track: Jellybean Wine.

Jellybean wine, perfect for a sunday morning hangover Jellybean wine, perfect for a sunday morning Hang out the window and wait to grow younger Hang out the window and wait to grow young And she does The sun's coming up as she's going down High as a kite that's kicking the ground Yesterday's gone but she's still around and she knows

I've got a straw hat I took it from a tourist took it right off his head because I'm a purist next I got his pocket watch stuck at half past three that was meant for a grandson but got passed on to me I didn't mean for it to hurt it's just my line of work there's an angel on the right shoulder tellin' me no a devil on the left sayin on with the show the angel on the right says boy you better think twice why does the side of the devil always look so nice I've got a camera equipped with a flash it was taken from someone's secret stash now I've got some photos though none of myself all the folks that I don't know got empty frames on the shelf I've got a backpack but I did the gal a favor when I took it off her hands it was freedom that I gave her inside I found a history book on the Russian revolution looks like Marx says that I'm justified with my wealth redistribution

Johnny 02:57
little johnny johnny cut himself to stay sane he had a girly girly but she couldn't remain by his side so he tried to fill the void in his life by writing on his arm with a knife l ittle johnny's brother when he saw johnny's pain he looked at little johnny with the greatest disdain he said bro I don't know but it looks to me as though only yourself is to blame she walked into johnny's room and now she knows just what he means it was different when she was writing on his arm she was little johnny knew that feeling had to revive he didn't really wonder whether he would survive so he clung to the pain with the hopes to regain proof that johnny still was alive

Tall Grass 02:51
The tall grass swings to the rhythm of the falling rain that drops its beads on the flowers below the sun shines down like a spotlight on center stage and all the creatures feel the morning time rage on that center stage the soft wind sings to the jitter of the dancing trees that drop their leaves like a fly on the go the dark clouds ring out a RUMBLE WHILE THE SUN ABSTAINS and we're all dancing to that summer time rain call us all insane where did you look in a mirror what did you see saw myself tell me more a little bit clearer than before

La Paz 04:23
I want to crawl in the ocean want to swim in the street til both my knees are broken til I skin my padded feet yes I think I'll retire for a while go down to La Paz a place above the sea to miles to sit and watch time pass I hope they named that city right for I intend to rest in peace smoke from my Andean pipe in a blanket of llama fleece I don't need my eyes don't need my ears no more I see what I despise I hear what I abhor yes I
