I must just be in a good mood. “A New Town” is my 6th free download of the DAY! It’s not even noon yet! This song was my first music video/single of my solo career. Enjoy!
Into The Glossy White is now added for absolutely free download, as well. Please go download these free songs and tell your friends!
Which means I currently have 12 songs available for free download. Which is like having an entire album available for free download. And there are a lot more where these came from.
The 4 new songs added today:
More Than I’m Worth
Who You Think I Am (with Vanessa Seward)
Don’t You Leave Us
If You’ll Let Me
B, it’s nice to know you’re alive after all. Unless you have a copy of that song we did, it’s lost forever. Wait. Now that I think about it, I know someone who has it, but…nope. Not posting it. :)
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve fantasized about invisibility. And I still do.
For all of you who liked ‘You Are Adam, I Am A Snake”, it’s up, right now, for free, and you’d better go take it. And tell your friends. Thanks!
Hey there. Feel free to put any of the downloadable songs I currently have up here on those sites. In fact, I encourage you to! You hear me, RIAA? That’s me encouraging people to (illegally?) download my music. Whatever, I am hereby legalizing it. Thank you very much.
I have mentioned the band I used to be in a few times. We were called Devola. You can buy our stuff on iTunes or CDBaby. For Old Song Friday today, I have want to show you all one of songs that I suppose is probably my favorite. Brace yourself…it’s 11 minutes long and change. In honor of Devola, this song is too large to post here on Tumblr BUT it is now up for FREE download for a limited time. Download now!
Drinking Ourselves Sick
Smoke in the room
The fire’s below
We’ll be leaving soon
Before the others know
The flames are dancing
We are drinking ourselves sick
So sing to me if you can sing
The air is getting thick.
I was just wondering if this party will end
The music is thundering, I am making a new friend
But I’m tired of all my friends, they make me feel more alone
I would rather go home.
The glamour, the glitter
We are hammered, but we’re thinner
Than everyone else in the room
Off camera, we are bitter
But well-mannered and fitter
Than everyone else, we assume
I was just wondering if this party will end
The music is thundering, I am making a new friend
But I am tired of all my friends, they make me feel more alone
I would rather go home.
Glamour, oh my dear, cock sucking dirty whore
You’re quite a sight in the right light
I bet you’ve heard that line before
I’ve watched you take my friends
I’ve cried as you took my lovers
I have lost some of them from underneath the covers
I will let you come near
I will let you sit with me
But there’s no vessel for you here
So do not bullshit with me.
Watch them all fall.
Watch them all fall down.
Here we are listening to your story again.
I am sitting next to my supposed friend
Listening to a story again and again.
Which song would you like to see available for free download that is not already available here? Message me here on Tumblr or Formspring or Myspace to let me know! (Hint: If you scroll through the pages of this tumblr page, you can find songs released every Monday of 2010 and many of the Fridays…)
Thanks!
I do aspire to make my living as a musician…so one day, I’ll have to charge for songs. But really, I mean, I have sooo many songs. So why not give some away to you guys? The link above is to my Media Fire site. I have two songs up there right now you can download and I’ll be adding A LOT more. So do me a favor and download what I have and if you want to increase your karma points bigtime, maybe reblog this so your followers know where to get some free music, too? Man, I love tumblr.
Thanks so much!
You can add me on Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, FormSpring, Last.fm, and YouTube.And, I think this goes without saying, but any donations to help me keep moving forward with my music/poetry would be warmly appreciated!
Now, with all of that said, are there any other social networking/sites I should be a part of?
So I want to give away some of my tunes to you guys. You guys=everyone who wants my tunes. I’m experimenting with this site below. If you have any suggestions of sites that are easier/better/still free to use where I can upload my mp3s and you can download them, by all means, tell me! In the meantime, try this out! This is the link for GRAY:

and here is the link for I’D RATHER LIE:
http://www.mediafire.com/?dmmzmdtg2z2
If you find this impossible, message me on here with your email address and I’ll try sharing the songs with you that way. That’s how much I want you to have my music for free.
Thanks!
Elizabeth
Thank you so much!
A very enjoyable acoustic and vocal mix. She updates with a new song every Monday. Go give her a listen.
Not sure why it took me so long to sign up for Last.fm. Actually, other people had already listed me as an artist when I finally got around to this today. Thanks! I uploaded a couple of songs and am still trying to figure it all out. Message me with any Last.fm tips you have! They will be appreciated. Until then, become a listener!
Subscribe to my YouTube channel! You’ll be updated first when I upload music videos, live videos, and all other sorts of fun videos.
Thank you so much! I can only hope to be as cool as her one day.
My friend, Dave, got his guitar stolen in SF last night. Please keep your eyes open for it.
“My guitar was stolen last night in SF, if you stumble on it: http://davesmallen.blogspot.com/2010/03/stolen-fender-stratosonic-guitar.html”
” —davesmallenThank you so much! You just made me smile. And I was tired and grouchy before, so the smile was warmly welcomed. :)

WHO YOU THINK I AM
I like to listen to your music
Reminds me that you’re real
That there’s a perfect little rhythm
Behind the things you say you feel
And if I could wrap you in my skin, I would
Tuck you under my rib cage
Let you talk for hours
Until you didn’t know what more to say
If I could take you with me
I’d hide you in my suit case
And maybe you could rid me
Of this blank stare on my face
And I am not who you think I am
But I like the me you created more
She is perfect in your eyes
And exactly what you’ve been looking for
You spill like syrup
All over my plate
Making a mess of yourself
When I already ate
Just take me home, I am falling apart
I’m chasing my shadow and condemning my heart
Things like this make my day. Thank you.
I am very inspired by Elizabeth Seward and the fact that she writes a new song every week.
Guess what? That was a random coincidence. And so I clicked on your facebook link to see who our mutual friends are and….not only do I know your brother, but he was in my band for a while. How’s THAT for random post-liking coincidence!?
That’s what I’m talking about! Thank you so much.
This is Elizabeth Seward, Listen to this song its bommbbb!! go to her page too, she has some good stuff http://elizabethseward.tumblr.com
I’m not just trying to appease you, but yes, probably. My touring/traveling friends have been reporting back to me for ages on the awesomeness of Melbourne and it is absolutely on my list. Rough plans are in action for me to be there by December/January and, of course, playing a show…or two…or three. I expect to see you there if so! :)
Hippo. Big time.
I wrote this poem so long ago. As it says, when I was 15. It got published in this book called “Slam” that was put out by Alloy. I remember being so proud of this. It was so nice to find it published here on Tumblr…thanks!
She bites her tongue
And stands up straight
Rolls her eyes
And fancies fate
Savors the thought
That it was all meant to
Plummet down creek
Reality smacks her in the face
And she brushes the blush onto her cheek
And maybe if she puts it on a little thick
The people will never know
She’s…
