lyrics

What is your song idea?
A song about how love in the city sucks, but if you are trapped on a small island and there are not many options, you have to make love work for you with what you've got.

describe your song in one word
Islandia

i'll be your desert island lady
you be my desert island beaux
and i know you'll never ever leave me
because there's nowhere else to go

i'll be your desert island baby
you be my desert island beaux
and i know that you're the one for me
because there's no one else to know

and we'll look with pity
on those in the city
the'll never know the happiness
we know

when i'm your desert island baby
and you're my desert island bloke
for we'll have have that sense of happiness
that comes from relinquishing all hope
that comes from relinquishing all hope

Friends and sometimes TWT collaborators set out to make a "classic rock" album but got lost along the way. Favorite Track: Aviator Shades. The Wiggly Tendrils

No. 1 - (Limited Edition Single)
by A Severe Joy

Ok, you have to buy their Limited Edition Single - Mono Plexi-discs. It's a series, so if it's sold out then check back. The music is amazing, and the packaging is top notch. I highly recommend it. The Wiggly Tendrils

Capitol Limited EP
by Deirdre and Conor / Kitchen Table, Illinois

Becky and Gabe back up their dear friends Conor and Deirdre Loughridge on three of their wonderful love songs; they return the favor on three of our weepy songs. We used a toy drum set! The Wiggly Tendrils
