Could someone please remind me that I have a job to do which I need to concentrate on instead of listening to his precious gems wherever I go... I'm NOT obsessed, I'm NOT obsessed... will write that down a thousand times... maybe at some point I start to believe it... ... so, every day there's a new song to be discovered... I wonder if John considers "Nothing But Hate" one of his naughtier songs. At least, this is not a love song. What I really like about it: It's so nicely contradictive. A catchy melody (with a chorus that makes me feel like chilling out at Café del Mar) married to some rather bitter lyrics. Would love to know the story behind this song. Does anybody know if he wrote ALL the songs that can be found on this particular Budapest page?? It would appear he did, although it's almost unbelievable given the quality and amount of songs... that's what I would call a work of genius... poetry turned into emotionally intoxicating music... just incredible. Can't be true!?!?

John, can it be true? As you can read above, we love all those little gems did you write them all? They are amazing, each one of them is special

I think most if not all is his work Since Red Fridge is the first/oldest band mentioned, he has been writing for at least 13 years now. My bet is he has been busy much longer than that, just didn't find the right stage/group to play his music in public sooner. And of course, we haven't heard the stuff he prolly did write in his early years, but never bothered to make public....

Yes, thanks a lot for sharing Ellen! It is such a beautiful song.
I think my fave of today is "Evade the pain".. listened to it in the morning and it has been on my mind since!

He's extremely poetic, and had his heart trampled on. Don't let me find whoever hurt him, Paybacks won't be fun! (for her, for me?....heh heh heh) SOOOOOOOOOOOO Sorry John...I only got half of A&A, though the song gets stuck in my head....Hope this helps! (PRAYS it helps as it's an amazing song) smg.photobucket.com/albums/v351/link15/?action=view¤t=alex.flv
