Heavenly. Been listening to BJM for years and stumble upon this track a few months back. I guess I need to sit down and study every track this bastard put down now. I love the hat tip in the title to this band where The Chameleons threw down a similar mood in Perfume Garden.
Spent an ungodly amount of time listening to this trying to decipher the lyrics. Here's what I could come up with. It's easy, on a moment ?????????????????????? And the moments flash by out of instants There's nothing in between And the moments are there, in an instant There's nothing in between Maybe you have noticed how she's Taken all those moments and she's Captured them in time, lured by lullabies Her eyes, there's a picture And she's painting, over me With her lies, and her rumours Into things I could not see Maybe you have noticed how she's Taken all those moments though I Never have heard her say, that she'd thrown them all away Maybe you have noticed how she's Taken all those moments though I Never have heard her say, that she'd thrown them all away Edit: Thanks for the addition Flinchey!
@moyamoreof1 i understand, the thing is, these were recorded on like 4 track tapes in the very early days, of just anton messing and being creative and have long been lost. from what i understood. the quality is not worth pressing on vinyl, even if they had the original tapes. there has been so much other material similar to this that has been stolen and lost.
i've tried to find this song in vain for many years. thank you. favorite BJM song by far.
isnt it just so great?
that would be lovely
incredible init. a true gem

If anyone ever goes through the trouble of deciphering the lyrics I will be forever grateful

??????????????????????
And the moments flash by out of instants
There's nothing in between
And the moments are there, in an instant
There's nothing in between
Maybe you have noticed how she's
Taken all those moments and she's
Captured them in time, lured by lullabies
Her eyes, there's a picture
And she's painting, over me
With her lies, and her rumours
Into things I could not see
Maybe you have noticed how she's
Taken all those moments though I
Never have heard her say, that she'd thrown them all away
Maybe you have noticed how she's
Taken all those moments though I
Never have heard her say, that she'd thrown them all away

"Maybe you have noticed how she's

My friend just purchased it on vinyl and it's amazing sounding. That's why I'm here.
this song is really rare song off the brian jonestown massacre
Such a beautiful song
Sorpendente...sumamente sublime.
Did Anton just tune down, love the early BJM tapes, vocals hidden with reverb Spacegirl and pleasure penthouse are soo good
Wish you would release this nowadays Anton :(
Anton Newcombe I've loved you since I was 6(teen)
burger records released these on a tape. They had them on sale during their last US tour.

TEMAZO
someone can help me with the lyric please? i will appreciate a lot :)
Was the song chameleons a reference to the awesome band chameleons?
Yeah, it's a Chameleons song written by Anton...in other words a tribute to them
this a really really cool song
the tuning for this seems quite strange, anyone have information in it?!?
Nathan Gibson it's just standard tuning with a bunch of distortion. Plays D and Am
❤
I can't found the lyrics, anyone?
what happened to the original version of "fingertips?" not here anymore :(
It was claimed by a group once the pol pot vinyl release happened, RUclips blocked it.
bjmarchives that sucks, because that mechanical whirring sound at the beginning was the shit.
Morris The Cat so gutted loved the original demo more then the new version
its on soundcloud tho
morris i have the full album e mail me and ill send it wantonmoneydon@gmail.com
