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
Chorus: I must be the change in this world That tiny little seed from which the tree emerged Can't wait, hesitate, someone must be first I must be the change in this world Verse 1: Styrene, UV, fish full of mercury Holes in the southern sky No rain, hurricane, climate going insane Crops and children die Left says right gets all to blame But their lifestyles look the same It may be difficult to change The powers that may be, so I must change me, oh Repeat chorus Verse 2: Plant a tree, stop a leak, recycle batteries Compact fluorescent lights Boycott, save a Watt, make sure I turn it off Walk or ride a bike Every dollar that I spend Is a message that I send To business and the government Of what I want to see, how this world should be, so Repeat chorus Bridge: Blame is just a game we play to fool our friends Into thinking all we do is right Blame solves nothing, only forces a defense From enemies we now have to fight Repeat chorus Last chorus: I must be the change in this world That tiny little seed from which the tree emerged Can't wait, hesitate, someone must be first I must be the change Don't look at me so strange Before things get more absurd You like me must be the change in this world Copyright 2006 A.
