lyrics

On a day that I like
I'm burnin' the blue seed
I'm burnin' the blue seed
I wanna see the green flames
I wanna see the green flames
I wanna call my neighbor names
like Loosy Lucy
Come on, yellow canary

Well, my baby gave me the boot
and I'm singin' a happy tune
I'm singin' a happy tune
for a million happy days
I don't hear no sad songs
I just hear the cars and trucks
and there ain't no cat is gonna cross this road... ain't no cat is gonna cross this old broadway

Well I don't have a job
I just sit on the porch
I just sit on the porch until
they come to take me away
I don't feel no heat on my heels
I just feel the cool breeze
feel the cool breeze blowin' on
a summer day…

Age of Apathy
by Aoife O'Donovan

supported by 8 fans who also own “The Blue Seed”

The instrumentation and songwriting in this album is really top-tier. Aofie is one of my favorite folk/alt-country artists and she performs wonderfully, bringing her unique tone of voice to this project. This album was my first step into Aofie's artistry, and is firmly one of my favorite albums. rileyridgway

Long Day in the Milky Way
by Kris Delmhorst

supported by 6 fans who also own “The Blue Seed”

These songs are the kind of gems that rarely come about for anyone without a long practice of songwriting. The language of the lyrics is always original, connecting commonly felt things in new ways. The music, delivery, and band are perfect vehicles for these wonderful songs. pdxshinn

The Fourth Messenger, featuring Vienna Teng
by Vienna Teng and Tanya Shaffer

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Blue Seed”

Vienna and Tanya- So fluid, lots of subtle voices in the sound. I enjoyed the male angst among the power of the female hope for a great future. Well done. Very much worth the wait after being teased from the first set of songs from the concept album tadjacks
