Brett Detar – Empty House on a Famous Hill video

Artist: Brett Detar
Song: Empty House on a Famous Hill
Album: Bird in the Tangle

Lyrics:

The Santa Anna wind won’t stop blowing

hot and hard like it’s pushing me aside.
She’s too hot not to burn you but you’ll pay for her time
so just take a swig and let her say goodbye.

In a dark empty house on a famous old hill
if they don’t love you now they never will.
Cause if you sell your heart to their empty souls
you’ll be vacant like this house upon the hill.

The city in the smog leaves you broken like her faded landmarks get built up to fall.
You get tossed along the freeway when her new thing comes along
but she can never let your heart forget at all.

In a dark empty house on a famous old hill
if they don’t love you now they never will.
Cause if you sell your heart to their empty souls you’ll be vacant like this house upon the hill.

lonely in the spotlight
spit out like the salt
washed up on the coastline
that’s leaves a bittersweet taste in your dirty mouth.
I don’t wanna’ leave this way
but as sure as the sun on the 101 you won’t remember my name.
I don’t wanna leave this way
but I can’t go on giving all of my love to town that don’t feel the same.

Daft Punk – Derezzed music video

In recent weeks I’ve been enamored with the soundtrack to Tron: Legacy created by Daft Punk.  It enticed me, lured me in, and I find myself immersed.

I’ve been a fan of Daft Punk since the release of Discovery back in 2001. That album included several hits including “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” (more recently sampled by Kanye West). They made the entire album into an animated video called Interstella 5555.

The soundtrack to Tron: Legacy exhibits them at their best. I highly recommend checking it out; I haven’t been able to stop listening to it.
