Gavin Hellyer Stereo experience notwithstanding, this record is just chock full of great songs. Thanks to Zaph Mann for the introduction, and just enjoy the mix whichever way you like. Me, I prefer it all together, but, just like Sgt. Pepper, switching channels gives you 2 almighty listening experiences. Favorite track: Even Higher.

Even Higher 02:39
lyrics
buy track
Come the sky Closer Come the sky Closer I 'll get you higher, even higher higher than ever meeting the mad hatter I'll get you higher, even higher will cross barbed wires have stitches on the tyres I 'll get you higher, even higher run through wild fire burn the old river I 'll get you higher, even higher no space for the choir say All your prayers Come the sky Closer Come the sky Come the sky Closer Come the sky Closer I 'll get you higher, even higher I 'll get you higher, even higher so keep it together I 'll get you higher, even higher stopped short my anger flames drove my temper I 'll get you higher, even higher and we’ll pour into the sun, like madmen on the run, I 'll get you higher, even higher above the horizon, soar like an angry gun, I 'll get you higher, even higher escaping the doldrums, rising above the slums, I 'll get you higher, even higher watch the sky surrender now you've reached the outer layer

Crashed On The Moon 02:37
lyrics
buy track
I crashed on the moon It happened so soon Was on a Mars trip You took me to a landfill I crashed on the moon sometime after June They said I'd survive as long as I lied I wrecked on the beach Vessel had a breach Was on a mars crusade left with a hand grenade I wrecked on the beach My sensors just blinked They said I'd survive as long as I lied I was out at sea named tranquility ending the mars charade long gone the sweet escape I was out at sea wishing company They said I'd survive as long as I lied full of hatred full of hope I realized I was tied to a longer rope. The verbose was right wasn't worth a fight paid all my attention But lost all ignition Did you realize I was out there in the middle of the middle of nowhere? No more ground control Major Tom 's gone No more ground control Major Tom is awol

James James 06:37
lyrics
buy track
James was a friend but he lost his mind Forgot his name Said he was fine Lessons he learnt Felt like sunburn He took on a path Let the rubble grow Funny he did the math Knowing where he'd go James couldn't resist entirely his fault But when the monster hissed He didn't have a bolt So he took a dive And crawled to the dirt Counted twenty-five Wiping off that smirk (James James )  Forgot all But her name (James James ) To him All the girls Looked the same (James James ) James James  Forgot all But his name (James James ) To him All the girls  Looked the same James James

Life In Limbo 01:44
lyrics
buy track
cities zipped past never to last green then amber night to remember we were in tow … life in limbo trains outbound new playgrounds pretend we meant that, and all to each other deny the fact we were bystanders we were bystanders we thought life was warm we believed in the new platform where the sun was pouring down where the sun was pouring down two more stops may be four? how many more till it gets me? shake down that line the air scorched my eyes don't know if I'll pull through Will l ever see you ? We are the last of us. new maps new directions

Lost It 02:51
lyrics
buy track
Entitled to a new crown I'll get faster to the ground I know what I have to do Oh please let me try anew Warm embrace, sweet disgrace I felt quite out of place  seeing your ponytail run, run away Some easy pretense Words you couldn't say Filthy company Like there's nothing else to do I can't fall again for you I think I've lost my mind take me to the light house spare me the broken glass on the pebbles by the shore Warm embrace, sweet disgrace I felt quite out of place  seeing your ponytail run ,run away Some easy pretense Words you couldn't say  Filthy company Like there's nothing else to do  I can't fall again for you

Flashes 01:50
lyrics
buy track
vivid flashes of light, you can't ignore you can't fight piercing right through me a hole of sympathy vivid flashes of light, they'll hurt some more You can't deny flat on the (sea) shore the burden is landing on my knees vivid flashes of light, My hands are sore You were so tied right at my door gonna lie down staring at your feet vivid flashes of light I begged some more You said you'd write a chapter or four I'll dry my eyes and ask for your key vivid flashes of light I heard the score Did we settle all right? I'm not that sure over the mantrap in the end you agreed... so many so bright so many so bright so many so bright so many so bright so many so bright so many so bright they hurt the night They're amazing

Stoned 02:29
lyrics
buy track
I can hear you laughing but now you laugh alone hear me feeling nothing For your days are gone oh… you were simply nothing but you could have had it all now you are left gaping and... you can keep it all back to your damp grotto those chains you wouldn't leave you side with your own Mojo you fail insanity Your acts were not so different you just could not address stayed looped in your conscience What else could I expect ? it rushed out of your hands when words were not enough you got on the wrong train drooling in your big mouth Short for all decisions you never took a stand blinded by delusions now you read others' comments You had your go misplaced and shaking you felt unknown alas and trembling decision was out of your hands

Fuzzy Colors 02:44
lyrics
buy track
I need to run, run away Take it all skip Sunday Red zone No stopping On approach Children crossing Watch the meter Amber light no one to shelter at bus stops at Night My eyes stick to the ground Traffic lights abound Random lines fuzzy colors exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur ! Random lines fuzzy colors exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur ! Random lines fuzzy colors exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur ! Random lines fuzzy colors exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur ! Random lines fuzzy colors exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur ! Trouble is on my side exit five take left shoulder Dots in the distance They dance dance dance Signs in the mirror Blur blur blur !

about

This is Stereo Sound Split between your ears ! Choose wisely !
Listening to this record is a completely new experience !
two completely different recordings of a song played at the same time on each speaker :
an all New Stereo Experience !
You can also listen to only one speaker, Left or Right and enjoy the same song played differently for a more traditional experience
You can even switch from one to another in the middle of the song !
On the Left Speaker, Ray Borneo - Bass, Drum & Guitar for a Rock ’n Roll experience
On the Right Speaker, The Bystanders - Drum Machine, Keyboards & acoustic guitar for an electronic experience
Both Speakers : crazy mixture of all this !


Préparez-vous à une expérience nouvelle et complètement folle où le charleston endiablé de BEE TRICKS se mêle aux tambours synthétiques de 8, aux claviers mélodiques de TARA KING TH. et à l'anarchie vocale de LOMOSTATIC, voici RAY BORNEO and THE BYSTANDERS.
Maintenant, imaginez deux enregistrements complètement différents d'une même chanson joués en même temps sur chaque haut-parleur de votre chaine-hifi (oui, il faut une chaine hi-fi pour en profiter, pas une box bluetooth. Ou alors un casque stereo, c'est encore plus dingue) ; cela donne une toute nouvelle expérience stéréo !
Alors il y a Ray Borneo, bien sûr, mais pas que : sont venus le rejoindre Julee Williams ( autrement connue sous le nom de Julie Bally ) et Noel Belmondo ( aussi appelé Noel Bingo-Belmondo). Pour pimenter le tout, Ray Borneo les a invités à chanter sans répétitions préalables, histoire de rendre la chose un peu plus excitante.
Le résultat est un disque hybride, entre rock d'un côté et musique électronique d'un autre. Si votre branchement est correct, vous aurez donc :
Haut-Parleur gauche : Ray Borneo - Basse, batterie et guitare
Haut-Parleur droit : The Bystanders - Boîte à rythmes, claviers
Fou non ?! Pour les plus traditionalistes, on peut également écouter un seul Haut-parleur à la fois, gauche ou droite, et écouter la même chanson jouée différemment. Et si vous sentez la folie vous gagner, vous pouvez même passer d'un Haut-Parleur à l'autre en plein milieu de la chanson ! C'est cocasse !
