Lyric by Matthew: She nor He

Don't know what you ever meant for me, it was so long ago.
Don't know if you ever meant for me to remember the things you told me so.
From one bastard to another, I tell you, you're nothin'!
Stripped of every last piece 'a hope, I've nothing.
The vultures won't let me be.

I just want to violate -- you owe me somethin'.
Wanna suck you dry, spit out your hate -- somethin'!
Psychologically rapin' me.

It's over. I've given up. It was so long ago.
A puppet can't kill itself or be the star when it never got a chance to show.

I'm neither she nor he. I'm nothin'.
I need to feel you entering me; make me somethin'.
Make me believe!

Copyright: Matthew Wilson, 2008. From the forthcoming album tentatively titled "G[o]od". Lyrics subject to change.

Still Untitled - A WIP From The Upcoming Album Tentatively Titled S.A.L.A.G.I.A. by i220 & Speak Lexia

Look at this man about to commit.
So easy to forfeit -- more or less submit to,
His pitiful wishes --
Hypocritical mission.
While I legitimize my every decision.

Creation...
Leviathan...
Preceding chaos...
Can't visualize...
Traumatized...
The wire has been tossed out.
Needing more...
Needing...
Forever and every time.
Your prime plus one.
Climb all over.
Climb to the lowest.
Go and climb out of the nested,
Vested interest for the interested.
6.67 percent or more if you,
Would've persisted...
Resisted the urge to purge what you've listed,
As on the verge of a vast improvement.
En masse if you can prove what you meant,
But I doubt it...

Look at this woman about to commit.
So easy to forfeit -- more or less submit to,
Her pitiful wishes --
Hypocritical mission.
While I legitimize my every decision.

Envision...
A dog's prison.
Catalogue...
Division of volition.
I shun sympathy.
Simply...
Instinctively looking to those,
Who help themselves.
Composed of stronger,
No longer...
Fear mongering champions of soft.
I long to be stone --
Honed from the bones of the lofty.
I've known forever...
That I was never to shy from the lever,
But the endeavour is thankless.
Bound at the shank to a Panzer tank in a dank,
And musty place...
The human race has Grace but she's not,
A fair fighter. I might have gone quieter,
If she'd have ignited my flame earlier.
That pearl that he gave her was nothing but,
A good for nothing bribe.

Look at this child about to commit.
So easy to forfeit -- more or less submit to,
Such pitiful wishes --
Hypocritical mission.
While I legitimize my every decision.
While I labotomize with every incision.

LAST MONTH: Last month was business as usual plus December craziness. All that being said, MUSREV saw a decent amount of traffic. One feature that seemed to draw quite a bit of interest was the video: "Ebony and Ivy League", a 30 sec. short by Lucas. Check: http://www.themusicalrevolution.com/weblog/promotion/index.html

IMPORTANT!: HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2009 is looking to be a landmark year for yours truly (Me :D). That being said, I strongly hope that it will be a landmark year for the revolution as well. So. What I propose is a slight change of attitude. As the new website takes form, it would be nice if the focus shifted more to the positive - enjoying/supporting/creating NEW/great music. We (TheMusicalRevolution) are the ones who can make this happen. Thanks for sharing with us - please continue to do so :D

NEWS: The Recording Industry stateside has decided to forsake their plan of sue first and ask questions later. They have decided to take the high road and coerce ISPs to rat us out instead :S.. No more Warner Music videos on YouTube. Is that bad news?.. In a race to see who can become irrevelant first, Myspace has ditched "Project Playlist" (playlist sharing application) due to pressure from the RIAA - Facebook to follow... Chris Anderson wrote a book outlining how the music industry could benefit from today's technology and.. now a bunch of negative nelly blowhards are punching holes in his optimism and gloating like pissed off little spoiled brats who aren't getting their own way.. boo hoo...

PROPAGANDA: Wanna sell your used guitars for $100,000? Just smash 'em up, duct tape 'em, sell out music, then shoot yourself.. Too late, Kurt Cobain beat you to it (OH NO HE DIDN'T! :O)... Eminem is going to get out of releasing his next album "Relapse" me thinks. The second single is now all over the internet and it ain't even finished yet! I say he just throws a snare down and some freestyles, skips the promo BS and goes straight to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame already ;).. So. This is hI-larious! 2008: Coldplay release a song entitled, "Viva la Vida". The indy band, The Creaking Boards immediately accuse them of ripping off their song, "The Songs I Didn't Write." Then Joe Satriani accuses Chris Martin's crew of ripping off his 2004 song, "If I Could Fly." But it turns out that they all could be ripping off music from The Legend of Zelda??? Who knows? And. Metallica is Guitar Hero bound! Think that I just may download that game :O..
Love,
TheMusicalRevolution ;)
