Some small comfort for a humanist in sad times. This tune has been described as "odd as anything" and "Simon & Garfunkel meets The Doors"

Jim-n-Lisa play electronic, acoustic, world/new age, jazz, rock, and other styles; sometimes, all at once.
I'm not going to blow smoke up your nether regions, pretending to be some other person saying how great Jim-n-Lisa are. Originality and high quality productions are important to us. Please judge for yourself. We hope you find something enjoyable. Hi, I'm Jim. This music is created in my computer based studio. I play electric, acoustic, and bass guitars, keyboards, flute, saxes, Wx7 wind controller, electronic drums, and I've been doing some singing of late. The performance/recording technique is improvisational and mostly recorded in real time, one track at a time by me. Lisa sings and creates most of her own vocal melodies and harmony lines. Thanks for listening, - Jim

Story behind the song
The loss of 3 family members in one month led me to find some comfort.
Lyrics
Absent friends, This world is a white canvas, Without your colors, ... without your colors. Absent friends, Oh absent friends, It's a ringing telephone, Do I want to be at home, It's just another machine, Trying to sell me satellite TV. Sometimes I've been feeling, Like a fly on the web, It's an inbox full of spam, Is there anybody real out there? And I don't believe there's anybody real out there. Absent friends Absent friends, I'll see you in that bright white light, At the end of my road, At the end of my road, And I don't care, If it's not real. Absent friends, I'll see you in that bright white light, At the end of my road, At the end of my road, And I don't care, If it's not real.
