  • GemsOnVHS loves some old time sounds of traveling troubadours like these. Behind the epic offices of GemsOnVHS lies a RV in which the band Lost Dog resides. Benjamin, Ashley Mae, and Daisy Mae(perhaps the aforementioned lost dog of Lost Dog?) make up the group on most occasions, although they are accompanied by some traveling friends here.
    You can find Lost Dog street band on bandcamp, facebook and all that.

    Some memories lay heavy down on my mind
    Some days I've cared and some days I'd rather die
    Sometimes I get so thirsty that I drink 'til I'm blind
    I gave up on tomorrow tonight
    In my dreams there's a needle and a spoon
    There's a pair of dice, a loaded gun, baby me and you
    And you're sawing on a fiddle and I'm wondering which to shoot
    Everything's so complicated now I am coming down
    Looking for a means to a new end
    All my friends are falling out or packing in
    Yesterday I prayed that the sun would shine for you
    As I watched the sky fade to blue
    (Chorus)
    Money never meant much to me
    It came and it went and it never changed a thing
    'Cause the hunger in my belly it ain't quenched by fancy things
    It's knowing that I am free
    (ChorusX2)

    The first time I heard the words needle and spoon together in a song was “Dead Flowers” ​​by The Rolling Stones. I've been following you ever since I accidentally saw the video for the TVZ version of “Waitin' Around To Die”. Excellent songs and excellent fiddle arrangements and great voice by Benjamin. Congratulations and best wishes from Barcelona.

    • @forshitsandgiggles7523

    • @angelsolanot8053
      @angelsolanot8053 2 года назад

      @@forshitsandgiggles7523 Dead Flowers was written by Jagger and Richards, probably under the influence of Gram Parsons and Keith's love for Hank Williams from a young age. They had written country music before (Country Honk) and later also (Sweet Virginia, Far Away Eyes) always with a Bakersfield sound. It was written in 1969 and released in 1971, and it wasn't until 1991 that TVZ performed it brilliantly on their album "Roadsongs." ” It is curious that a British band has written, in my humble opinion, some of the best country songs in history, as it is that a British guitarist like Ron Wood plays the pedal steel as he does, or as another like Albert Lee has been named best country guitarist five times at Guitar Player Magazine, or for a fan from Barcelona like me to get to know TVZ's discography and even perform some of their songs.

    Playing away the blues

    You bring the booze
    I'll join that group
    Pay me in jabs and booze
    Another lost dog
    With nothing to lose
    Ketamine
    Has her gun to my head
    Boys you know the end I'd choose
    Sobriety
    I've lost me
    Standing in an ocean
    Waves overtaken me
    Find the bottle
    It's running on empty
    I'm drowning
    standing on my own two feet
    I wanna fold
    Break at the seams
    Ms ketamine
    What have you done to me
    I can't sleep
    I can't eat
    Your just a part of me
    Ms ketamine
    Let me go
    I need sleep
    Another drink
    The days blur
    Into one nightmare
    I can't find my feet
    Sobriety
    Is a joke
    I just want my keep
    Days melt together
    Sitting losing sleep

    This song physically hurts but I come around to it every so often. There was a time I was a junkie. It was as good as it was bad. I don't romanticize anymore. This song really captures a feeling few know.
