Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - Destroy the Evidence

Here's one of my fave CFTPA songs that I noticed wasn't on YouTube yet. No video... just the song. From 2001's "Pocket Symphonies for Lonely Subway Cars".

Lyrics:
You say you don't want me coming around anymore
You sit in the window, you won't answer the door
The phone rings and rings
You won't let me bring you things anymore.

There are 26 steps to your door
But I won't be counting those anymore

I've got 17 seconds in my room tonight
And when that's over I've got faith
So all right, all right all right all right.

I burned all the pictures
I let the letters loose
taped over the mixes
and cut the noose.

There are 26 steps to your door
But I'm not counting anymore
But I'm not counting anymore
I'm not counting anymore.

@themadscientest Believe me, it was a compliment. Bubble Gum is a good thing in some cases. It's just a phrase really...There are great bubblegum songs from the 60's and all the way through today, but the more I've listened to this band, I wouldn't describe them as bubblegum...I was merely saying that compared to Wedding Present, they are I guess. Anyway, I think we can both agree that they are great.

@31makimba bubblegum? why? why? why? why? bubblegum is like fucking justin bieber and meaningless crap! this is just someone pouring it out over some of the best "lo-fi" electronic ever made.

@Stalfos212 It's not a band. It's one person.

My favorite song by this band so far. Great, Great stuff.

[31makimba]

This band reminds me of a toned down, bubble gum version of Wedding Present. Incredibly powerful music we got here.

There is something Lou Reed - Walk on the Wild Side about this whole guitar riff if you ask me ;-)
