Nouveau retro pop rock music: Definitely rock, fairly pop, somewhat retro, and a bit more experimental. http://www.stonemarmot.com
Our music is the result of not watching TV for over 40 straight years. That's right! The person who writes all our songs hasn't had a working television in his house since January, 1982. Scary, isn't it! That could explain the somewhat retro, rather experimental feel to the music, which has been described as sounding somewhere between Buddy Holly, The Ramones, The B-52s, and They Might Be Giants. This CD is an object lesson in how warped and depraved a television-starved mind can get. And that's not all! To make matters worse, since no self-respecting human would stoop low enough to play this stuff, he suckered four poor, innocent cartoon characters into recording his music. Cartoon characters have it tough enough as it is, with people laughing at them all the time, without having to be subjected to this! His poor, unfortunate victims, who refer to themselves collectively as Stone Marmot, are: Cindy: Guitars Sid: Keyboards, guitars, lead and backup vocals Sammy: Bass, lead and backup vocals Bruce: Percussion, backup vocals This quartet played their little paper hearts out as the ignoble fiend who created them and their music practically produced and engineered them to death. Therefore, for the sake of the cartoons, we hope you give their music a good listen and try to appreciate their tireless and selfless efforts. Please! Don't let this happen to you or someone you love! Be sure you and your loved ones receive a healthy minimum dose of television each and every day.

Lyrics
Intro (talked): One, two, three, four Oo-oo, yeah Perk your ears up, boy 'Cause I'm a singing this one for you Verse 1: I'm anxious for those arms Waiting just to cradle me tight Carry me through the night I'm thinking of you Verse 2: I'm longing for those lips Full and warm and salty sweet Hunger for that tasty treat I'm thinking of you Bridge 1: Though many hours we must spend apart Can make life seem unfair Comfort comes as I run my thoughts Through your fragrant hair Instrumental verse with guitar solo Bridge 2: Summer breeze rustling through the trees Becomes your whispers in my ear Warmth radiating from a fire Makes me feel you are near Verse 3: I'm dreaming of those deep Gazes from your soft brown eyes Beaming love you can't disguise I'm thinking of you Thinking of you Thinking of you Thinking of you Backup vocals (repeated four times): Every moment we're apart, I'm thinking of you Every beat of my heart, I'm thinking of you Every breath that I breathe, I'm thinking of you Every thought I conceive, I'm thinking of you Extension: Every love song that I hear Makes me wish I had you near What evades my tip-toed reach I imagine your lanky arms hand me Every scarlet sun that sets Reminds me just how red you get As you declare your tongue-tied love for me I'm thinking of you Thinking of you Thinking of you Thinking of you Boy, I'm thinking of you Copyright 2004 A.
