Motherless Child Hungry Lucy RemixThere’s a new song streaming in my Anji Bee MySpace player. It’s the brand spanking new Hungry Lucy remix of the unreleased Lovespirals song, “Motherless Child.”

4 bands were invited to remix our rendition of this classic anonymous blues song, including Hungry Lucy, Karmacoda, MoShang, and Beauty’s Confusion. We hope to release a digital single on iTunes with all 4 remixes, plus a special Lovespirals remix, sometime over the next 2 months. Stay tuned to lovespirals.com for details!

Here’s that 3rd episode I mentioned last week… I am launching a brand new project on March 5th, so that may have some affect on whether Lovely Ladies happens weekly or fortnightly, but I’m having a lot of fun, so I’m sure I’ll keep doing them pretty regularly. Haven’t selected an exact drop day (ie Tuesdays, Thursdays et al) so just keep checking back for more!

  1. “Who Knows Where the Money Goes” The Days unreleased (2006)

My new show is bi-something…

3 Comments


I’m sitting here trying to figure out whether to announce my new podcast, Lovely Ladies, as “biweekly” or “bimonthly” to indicate that it will happen every other week. Looking up both words on the Apple dashboard dictionary is no help at all! Apparently, both words are ambiguous. Biweekly can mean either every other week or twice a week, and bimonthly can mean twice a month or every two months. Drats! Perhaps I should call it “fortnightly”?

In any case, please download my promo to play on your podcast :

I’ve had this idea for awhile that I might do occassional mid-week podcasts when I want to chat about something, and it so happens that I am going out of town for the weekend and won’t be able to do my normal podcast. So, I thought I’d launch the Chillcast Chat this week to try and fill that void… I hope you enjoy this abbreviated Chillcast and that you will consider taking part in the Earthlink Advertising Challenge. I’d love to hear some jingles by the bands I feature on the show!

“Heartstrings” Lyrics

Leave a comment

“Heartstrings” Beauty’s Confusion Single (2004)

I feel him tug my heartstrings
His fingers pluck the melodies
Part of the cosmic fugue now
Melding into everything

Turn away our daily cares and
Let the music soothe our souls
And the notes that he’s playing
Combine with mine to make us whole

Music is magic
I feel it moving me
Music has the power
To set our souls free

In the quiet of the night
All alone in our room
While the world is fast asleep now
He and I compose this tune

Music is magic
I feel it moving me
Music has the power
To set our souls free

— by Anji Bee (BMI)

Note: This song was never fully completed. A shortened edit was used as the theme song for my short-lived Lovely Ladies podcast and a remix was begun by DJ Pain with additional spoken word by El Guante. The lyrics for that version are below:

His fingers pluck the melodies
Melding into everything

(x2)

I feel him tug my heartstrings
His fingers pluck the melodies
Part of the cosmic fugue now
Melding into everything

Turn away our daily cares and
Let the music soothe our souls
And the notes that he’s playing
Combine with mine to make us whole

Music is magic
I feel it moving me
Music has the power
To set our souls free (free)

In the quiet of the night
All alone in our room
While the world is fast asleep now
He and I compose this tune

Music is magic
I feel it moving me
Music has the power
To set our souls free

— El Guante freestyles —

Music is magic
I feel it moving me
Music has the power
To set our souls free
