Long time, no tracks. 'Til now! Been pre-occupied with improving myself outside of music. This is and never will be a hiatus, I'm simply exploring life by giving less time to music creation.
I'm taking a step back in terms of "every week". This was a fun experiment. Now, it's gonna be a whole new level of awesomeness every time there's a new track because you'll never know when it'll happen!
If you're still pissed, blame it on the following people and things...
Neil Strauss' "The Game"
David DeAngelo and his awesomeness.
Larry King

My newly-discovered life.

REST YOUR WEARY HEAD
Darling, rest your weary head.
Come on, nothing's under the bed.
I'll stay and watch you sleep if you want.
I promise I won't make a sound.
You won't even know I'm there.
While I start to dream myself.
Nothing's coming after you
While I'm watching over you.
There's a movement underneath
And a language that the body speaks that's
louder than any word can say.
There's sunshine on all things.
And flowers that grow on trees.
And way too many things
That make me smile this way.

New Track: "Love Has Lost Its Meaning"
Came up with a pretty awesome song a little while ago. Great timing as it IS Wednesday, the day of new material to be shown to you all.
The song is called "Love Has Lost Its Meaning" and is broken up into three movements. It also acts as an intro to Knight In Shining Armor because of how it ends with the line "...can never harm her."
As always you can find the track through http://www.littleplasticstars.com/ OR the direct link is http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8ce0e60a91defafd9b4281be271e6701.
LOVE HAS LOST ITS MEANING
1-2-3-4
For everything that you need,
I'll be everything that you need baby.
Just say the words.
Just say the words.
For everything that you do,
I'll be right there rooting for you.
Just say the words.
Just say the words.
"I love you."
"I love you."
---
In this era of drama
And sugar for mama,
Love has lost its meaning.
It's void of any kind heart.
When the words must be imparted,
There's no feeling.
---
So don't
Misuse
The words
That all
Have fought for.
Love.
"...can never harm her..."
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

"Knight In Shining Armor" Now On Podsafe Music Network!
Made a mad dash to the Podsafe Music Network site to upload "Knight In Shining Armor" as I looked at the time and noticed I was an hour past the deadline for the upload. But it's up in all its glory so if you didn't catch the exclusive premiere on Zaldor's World, it's up on the standard PMN site. Enjoy.

Exclusive New Track: Knight In Shining Armor + "Featured On..."
Getting back into the swing of things after a short break in new weekly music, I've recently given you some new sounds to evaluate. This week's is no difference. To me, the track is SO good that I couldn't just "upload it" like all the others. Nope. When you've got a track this good, you've gotta make a big deal about it, so I gave it to good friend and podcasting guru Les Zaldor for the debut release of it.
Before I go any further, the link is here. Episode 218.
Along with the track, I also sent him a commentary to go along with it describing the song and what it represents to me. That's heard before the song. Enjoy and cherish both.
The track goes up on Podsafe Music Network come Sunday.
...
KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR
There's a helipad in my head for when I wish to dream
Of smiling, laughing, giggling you.
There's a lighthouse in my heart for when it's safe to dock
And all the while the clock keeps ticking.
There's a monster inside my heart and the name I gave it was your's.
I thought they'd fit so nicely together.
I said words I can't repeat to combat words you throw.
I hope we'll make it work someday.
'Cause I can't help but think that it's all part of one big plan.
And that by the end of it all, I won't have a leg to stand on.
Oh please, baby please, tell me I'm your one and only man.
"Knight in shining armor" and that whatever I do can never harm her.
I saw love that I had to have. Didn't think about the cost.
Next time I'll be wasting wisely.
I'm so glad that I've got time to deface and derail.
I'll let it all die off in hiding.
'Cause I can't help but think that it's all part of one big plan.
And that by the end of it all, I won't have a leg to stand on.
Oh please, baby please, tell me I'm your one and only man.

New Track: Giving Up Never Felt So Good
So it goes like this: In the absence of new music for you and by me, I had come back with a new sound. More... "bandy". I like it, but I wanna see what you all think.
By the way, as always, new tracks are heard at...
http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/artistdetails.php?BandHash=8ce0e60a91defafd9b4281be271e6701
...or, one could go to the official site http://www.littleplasticstars.com/ for all links concerning Little Plastic Stars.
The song is "Giving Up Never Felt So Good" and it goes like this:
...
It felt right at the time, but we soon gave up
After he threw up two shots of tequila, the worm and the lime
On the host of the party, she said it was fine.
She was too high to care much, said the vomit was cool - added a nice touch to an
olive-green rug that she got from her mom. She threw it out - said they never got along.
And so I laughed at the fact that we all got smashed while the rug got trashed.
She got stoned and eventually crashed on the couch that she got from her mom.
We went out for a while, but I had to stop 'cause I felt like a child
Everytime she drove, she just smiled and said
"You know, I really don't mind." But I did.
How can life be fair when all the old problems keep coming back?
I've yet to grow up, but you seem fine with that. I can't love you anymore.
How can you just stare like a wet fish on dry land. Move your gills slowly, turn on the tear glands.
Giving up never felt so good.
Your tears of sadness, my tears of joy.
That boy inside, that boy must die.
If you can't live your life the same
May you walk that walk of shame.

I've yet to grow up, but you seem fine with that. I can't love you anymore.

Giving up never felt so good.
...
Let me know what you think. If I don't hear anything from anyone, I'm just gonna start getting in touch with you and asking you on the spot!
I've got another track I'm working on with the same "bandy" feel. Enjoy.
As far as a new track every week, I can't guarantee it, but I'll definitely give it the best I can. I'm JUST getting into actually driving, I'm busy switching up my life more positively, meeting womenz... I've suddenly become a busy man.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

The Dare
I really wish it would have been a bet instead because I could have racked some serious dough.
Before the football game this past Thanksgiving, Demi Lovato sung "The Star-Spangled Banner".
In my opinion, she raped it. It was BEYOND raping. As a matter of fact, she sung it in such a way that made me look back on how the teenie-bopper society and above adopted an R&B style of singing and invaded the old traditions that still hold true and dear to our hearts. LIKE THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
Now I'm not against creativity and expressing yourself through unpopular means. Please, I encourage you to release it on a CD with some electro beats and amazing feats, but when it comes to singing it in front of people who like it sung properly and have it be given the respect it so proudly deserves, get the fuck off the stage.
I said the above to my Drunkle who, of course, agreed with me, but when I said it to my Dad, he stood on her side.
First he threw out her net-worth and fame, though I have no idea who the hell she is. Then when that didn't work for him, he played the "vocal range" card, which I proudly shot down.
"Fine, we'll see. Make it this week's new track."
And so it is.
Having JUST sung and recorded it, I'm quite happy with the results. It's simply enough the usual a capella version. Bare voice and all to prove the point to my Dad that songs like The National Anthem should NOT be sung in "just any way", but that it needs to be sung with pride, sorrow, and a sense of accomplishment.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.
P.S. I just checked out who she is. Camp Rock? The Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience? Oh please, spare me the horror of that demographic already.

No New Track For This Week + Concert Details
Well, with the concert a little over two weeks away and what with the butterflies in my stomache having butterflies in THEIR stomaches, I think I've come to a comfortable tracklisting. First I'll belt out "Subject Yourself" and then play out with the unreleased track "Blondie".
Been thinking about saying something between those two tracks. Something like "WHAT'S UP CHIPPEWA?!" You know, like how bands when they tour they shout out wherever they are....... "CHICAGO!"........ "LA!"............. "AUSTIN, TEXAS!".............
So anyways, I'M excited to show 200+ people a good time. Am I nervous? Meh, a little, but not because I think people will hate it because most everyone loves it, but rather because it's 200 PEOPLE. When I first thought about doing the first live performance, I thought 20 TOPS MAYBE 30 would be there. CAN NOT WAIT.
-------------------------
It would appear as if the track I gave you, "I Hope You'll Be Around", was never given with the VOCAL TRACK, A MUCH NEEDED INGREDIENT....
Never fear, I've got a back up for this upcoming week.
All apologies.
-------------------------
I've got some new songs I've been working on, none of which I can show or even tell you about, but I KNOW you're gonna love it all!
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

Weekly New Tracks - Deadline Changes + "Notes Via Stalker"
Yeah, as with the current trend I have, I'm thinking it's best to just say that I'll be aiming for a Wednesday release, but to more likely than not have it come out on a Thursday or even a Friday from now on.
Having said that, I DO have this week's track ready for you all just in time for tomorrow morning bright and early.
I thought I'd continue with the covers in place of my creativity block and have come up with a suitable take on Barenaked Ladies' "I'll Be That Girl". I've also changed the name, as before, to fit the change and feel accordingly to "Notes Via Stalker".
Words I sing are as follows:
I'LL BE THAT GIRL
If I were you (and I wish that I were you),
All the things Id do to make myself turn blue
I suppose Id start by removing all my clothes,
Tie my pantyhose around my neck
Ill be that girl -- and you would be right over
If I were a field, you would be in clover
If I were the sun, you would be in shadow
And if I had a gun, there'd be no tomorrow
there'd be no tomorrow.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

Missed Featured For Oct. + BRAND NEW LATE TRACK!!!
Yes, I'm late, but look at what I gave you!
This is a cover of the original song by Aimee Mann known as "That's How I Knew This Story Would Break My Heart". I changed the title for the sake of the cover to "Aimee's Heartbreak". Great song but the original title is TOO DAMN LONG.
I sing:
I drew a picture of you
You and your anchor tattoo
And saw the face that I knew
Covered in shame
You drew a bird that was here
A kind of sweet chanticleer
But with a terrible fear
That the cage couldn't tame
That's how I knew this story would break my heart
When you wrote it
That's how I knew this story would break my heart
---------------
Just before October ended and RIGHT AFTER I listed the plays of October, a couple popped up.
Mental Nomad - Ep. 116
http://mentalnomad.libsyn.com/
and Dalecast - Ep. 406
Link can be found to the right, but for those who fail at finding Waldo, the link is here.

New Track: The Waning Crescent Moon Before The Sunrise
Sorry for the two-day de-lay in a new track. Hadn't thought of anything until now and what better time to release a song on Halloween than with a track themed on it!
The Waning Crescent Moon Before The Sunrise
In the dreams that you protrude,
I don't mean to be rude,
but I know what you're thinking.
In the things that you say,
understatements that portray
a different side of you.
In the waning crescent moon
that leads the sun across the view,
I'll be thinking of you before the sunrise.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track + This Month's Plays + Concert Date IS THE SAME!!!
Good news! What WAS suppose to be a date change for the concert is STILL ON THE 10TH and is SET FOR THE 10TH.
------------
I know I was pretty late on delivering a new track - all apologies. I'm going to try and make an effort to be more on time.
REGULAR GUY
Cheer up.
Way to bring down the mood when you're in the bottom.
Things look grey now. Wait for a while, then smile.
It's not bad, it just isn't how you wanted it to be.
I've got this feeling it'll last for a while.
Crack open a beer and bring the wall down.
You've gotta be open to new things - put the cache of red tape away.
Be honest - open and true.
I've been down that road
And it isn't good.
The things you won't
Are the things I would.
You're still young,
Don't let it die.
You'll spend your life
Just tryin' to be a regular guy.
Live life for once.
Right now.
Live it now.
-----------
As October comes to a close, I want to point out all of this month's "featured"s...
Dalecast 383
Dalecast 394
Dalecast and the big 400!!!
As always, a link to Dalecast can be found auf der rechten Seite (on the right side).
I want to congratulate Steve on reaching his 400th episode, a MAJOR milestone that not many podcasters reach!
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track: "Welcome To The Fall" + Featured + FIRST RADIO PLAY!!!
First off, the new track is short and sweet. SHORT for a reason. I got a lot of flak about that. I just wanna make it clear that "Welcome To The Fall" is suppose to have the feeling of an "intro" and not a "song".
------------
Yes, once again, "featured" is the word.
Double dose of Your's Truly on Lonely Fella - "lps 69" AND "Breathe"...
Kinda wish there was a way of contacting him. I'm willing to send 44100 files so he doesn't have to play the 96000 files because they totally fuck with the music!
Lonely Fella Episode 27
...
"Way Past Bedtime with Gustav Bertha" is up next with "Breathe". ALL HAIL THE LAND OF SWITZER! SWITZERLAND!!!
WAY PAST BEDTIME Episode 48
...
And finally, BUGCAST.
Episode 029
---------------
And now the moment you've all been waiting for................... drum-roll please........................ MY FIRST RADIO PLAY!!!!! THAT'S RIGHT, NOT A PODCAST FEATURE, BUT A RADIO FEATURE!!!!
The details are as follows:
Tom Robinson's Introducing on BBC6

New Track: Breathe + Featured (Homecast Show)!!!
Hey!!! What's up all my homeboys, homegirls, and homeowners?! A new "featured on" to speak of along with a fresh new flippin' track!
-----------------
"Homecast Show" is the name and LA news reporting gone podcasting is their game!
Enjoy. As far as I know, they're the first to play "Flawed". Love and Kudos to them!
Homecast Show - Episode 143 (plays automatically)
-----------------
This week's track is fresh in the sense that... alright, I lied, it's not "fresh" so much as it fuckin' rocks, but... blah... you figure it out.
BREATHE
Breathe fire,
Expire,
Break it down like a morse code wire
to something that makes a little more sense.
Squeal piggy.
"On knees" gritty.
Hey, that's fitting.
Make a nice little sand castle all fall down.
Where were you when that quiet fissure of a non-existance reigned?
Where were you when the light I saw was the devil in white that came?
Where were you when the life I led started to slowly break away
And separate?
Break away.
Smash
Kill
Burn
End
Wreck
Waste
Break
Stare
Slow-motion commotion.
Devotion to a fantasy world.
"Combustible" in every sense of the word.
I've been waiting too long for a realization.
Where my heart stops beating for the next situation.
Where my weak love stands on a poor foundation.
Why does it do this to me?
I just don't get it.
Why do you do this me?
I still see your ghost sometimes.
Why do you do this to me?
Breathe.
...
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track: Flawed
I want you all to enjoy and appreciate "Flawed". This is me now sadly giving away tracks from the second album....
That's right, it hurts me to do this because I don't want to kill the hype of "Truths, Lies, And Lullabies" but I simply have nothing else to post! I don't want to post mediocre tracks yet I don't want to give away the ass-kickers.
FLAWED
I run, I jump, I bust through walls.
If you see my future - let me fall.
I accent all my stupid flaws
And use them to erupt applause.
I'm Ray Charles in boxer shorts,
I love music, I hate sports.
I save lying as a last resort.
I guess I'm a lot like you - flawed.
Flawed.
I'm a lot like you - flawed.
Flawed.
I spend my time online buying shit I know I really don't need.
I pace myself for the sake of the addiction I feed.
I sleep naked with a nightlight in the shape of a car.
I get a little lonely so I look up - I'm seeing stars.
Flawed.
Flawed.
I'm a lot like you.
I'm fuckin' losing it too.
Hey.
I see a little of me in you.
I see a little of you in everyone.
I am something different.
Something unique.
I am something crazy,
yet powerless to you.
I am.
I am an imperfectionist.
I have feelings too.
I will prevent myself,
For I will do anything.
I will lose my mind, I said
I will commit myself
If it makes you happy.
If it keeps you flawed.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track: Be Chased / Get Caught
I'm suspending the inevitable by putting a "pre-Truths, Lies, And Lullabies" track out there for this week called "Be Chased / Get Caught". Originally, it was called "Chasing Rainbows" I wanted to name it something a little less... puffy. Maybe something that didn't suggest I'm gay.
But enjoy this track, it kicks ass when you wear headphones and throw the DBs up higher than a muthafucka!
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track: Say Something Beautiful To Me
Something I had been kicking around for a while now, but haven't been able to throw down the vocals until now.
Lyrics are short and as follows...
SAY SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL TO ME
I still step in mud puddles.
When the rain comes, I run aground.
I impatiently wait for a firestorm.
I'm quite happy with this loneliness I've found.
Loneliness I've found.
Say something beautiful to me.
Say something beautiful to me.
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

Featured + New Track: DALECAST + The Alcoholic
NEW TRACK...
Yep, it's that time of the week. This time around, I got personal yet against (first my atheism, then I cracked on friends, now it's my alcoholic Uncle) with "The Alcoholic".
If you know my family, you know the guy we shrug off like a bug - which is horrible because "acceptance starts when you leave it alone", but really, I'd rather not leave it alone.
He's never done shit TO the kids, but then again he hasn't done shit WITH the kids.
This song is for the alcoholic in YOUR family.
THE ALCOHOLIC
In this trying time, gotta think about
What's on your mind - gotta work it out.
Go and cover your ears, You can't think when they're all shouting,
You can't move when it's all mounting,
You can't sail when it's all sinking,
There's no pain if you're busy drinking.
It's a burning house and you're the owner.
A scared family and you're a loner.
Whiskey to harmony - "Better than a stoner".
The couch is your domain for when
You don't wanna play the game of Life.
We're a loser team fighting a losing battle.
You know what I mean. Why don't you put the bottle
Down so we can talk about it.
We're caring for you because you don't.
Foundation giving way.
Arms crossed you've got nothing to say.
Your eyes say a million words
You don't need to speak to be heard.
We hear every single god damn word.
You can't think when they're all shouting,
You can't move when it's all mounting,
You can't sail when it's all sinking,
There's no pain if you're busy drinking.
...
This is also the first time where I started with the piano and vocals and added instruments from there on. It's a transition I've wanted to do successfully for a long time. Obviously still figuring things out.

New Track: It's All Down To You
As I gear towards a debut release, I've got this week's track fresh and just about ready.
This ain't no "piano only" track and there's no need to say "God, get the razors out" on this one. I'm excited about this one. Hope you all are too. It's gonna KICK YOUR ASSES COLLECTIVELY.
It's All Down To You
...
Stop thinking you're the king of the world and
You might just acquire friends.
Start betting on a winning horse and
You'll beat it 'till it's dead.
Stop lying to the Government,
They know where your family lives.
Keep buying foreign 'till you lose your job.
See how much the common-man gives.
Speak volumes to the sheep that walk
Upright, they've got phones in their ears.
Run headless and you'll twitch for a while.
Run scared, you've got so much to fear.
Give up, you've got no where to run.
The satellite is the new God.
Stand up and do something right.
Stand against - for once have an original thought
That they can't take away,
No matter what kind of prey
That they hunt everyday.
It's the words that you say
That rule the world in a way
They'll never understand
No matter how much they spend.
It's beyond their command,
It's what the people demand.
It's all down to you.
It's all down to...
Sparks fly on the fourth fourth of July
It's really missiles with your nuclear death.
Drug dealer been clean for so long.
Crooked cops plant an ounce of meth.
Towers fall and you wonder why.
We give 'em guns, they pay us in shots.
The world's running circles around us.
They all know everyone's laughing at us.
It's all down to you
It's all down to...
It's all down...
It's all down to you
It's all down to...
It's all down to...
...
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.

New Track: Dating Is Hard (FULL SONG) + LPS1 UPDATES
Yes, that is CORRECT. THE FULL "Dating Is Hard" TRACK IS FINISHED AND UP. Enjoy.
The final lyrics...
Dating Is Hard
...And I never wanna hear you say
That you're gonna find someone else today.
makes me wonder why I even try
To surprise and impress with these lies I profess.
Run your mouth in front of me.
Tell me just how hard life is for you
Like I just don't understand,
Like the life I lived is pointless to you.
Do you like my used car?
Have I said too much have I gone too far?
Do I impress thee?
I can tell you right now, it ain't like TV.
My heart's an earthquake foundry.
...And I never wanna hear you lie.
I'd rather leave first than be denied.
The kinda guy that comes on strong.
I'm going all in.
Open heart - say ahhh.
Open heart - say ahhh.
I'm going all in, say ahhh.
Coming on strong, say ahhh.
Tell me what you want me to say,
Tell me what you want me to do.
Speak tongues like it's over now.
Get loud when you throw the towel.
Get down when I disavow.
And disarm myself.
Be nice when my guard is down.
Play fair when I come around.
I'm a tourist in a ghost town.
I'm a tourist in a ghost town.
Ahhh.
The album has entered the "Mastering Phase" where the tracks are being aligned, songs are being polished w/ optional sprinkles on top like a nice convertible 1950s car!
Here's the facts...
Album:
Truths, Lies, And Lullabies
Tracks:
1. Dating Is Hard
2. Who You Really Are
3. They Don't Bring The Noise
4. Black Pepper
5. No One Is Going To Help You
6. (She's Done) Beautiful Things
7. Your Son Raised A Sinner
8. Star 69 Me
9. The Sound Of Velvet Crushing
10. Love Somebody
11. The Anatomy Of Truth
12. Home
Length of Album:
Approximately 42 minutes.
...
Happiness comes in more than one thing - this DOES appear to be an album which will be pressed. As always, things change, but EXPECT A PHYSICAL RELEASE!!!
Still gotta figure something out for the cover. I don't want something OVERLY artistic 'cause that just won't fit with the music. Originally, I was gonna do a controversial cover that coincided with the idea of "Anthems For Riots" where it would show a picture of Jesus committing suicide by falling off of a building backwards with his arms out like he was on the cross.................. yeah................ talk about controversial................. for those who appreciate the fine teachings of your Lord, all sincere apologies. Like I said, that WAS the idea, but now that the music doesn't fit that and the album name has changed, I gotta think of something else.
More as it comes.
-------------
SURPRISE SUNRISE!!!
As the OFFICIAL LPS site is being worked on, a nice little front has been erected!
Check out www.blackadammusic.com and you'll see what I mean!!!
...yeah, when you get there, you'll notice the words "(limited hand-pressed edition)". Yep, I lost it too when I read that. I though it was a GREAT idea that Dad came up with.
The "(limited hand-pressed edition)" is the early version of the album that was burned on-site at a Detroit Podcasters Meetup. Any and every podcaster there received a copy from a pile of ten. The last I checked, there was still a couple left in the pile. We'll figure something out about that sometime, I'm sure of it. ;-D

New Track: The Anatomy of Truth + FIRST LIVE PERFORMANCE
Got some good news and some GREAT news.
First the good news.
This next Wednesday's track is TOTALLY ready. It's the one I'm putting in place of the track I had to take out of the final tracklisting, "Delia". This track is called "The Anatomy Of Truth". Has to do about a certain party of person(s) in my life right now that are consistently lying to feel special...
THE ANATOMY OF TRUTH
You'll never know
Which direction to go.
It's only speed that you know...
Fast and Faster.
This silence is loud.
Covered by shroud
Of our infinite doubts.
It will last even longer.
Why do you try to change when you don't want to?
Why do you take apart the truth so that it suits you
Better?
You'll never see
What they want you to see.
It's okay to be wrong,
It's okay to be wrong.
Misunderstandings
Of an infinite nature.
It's only you that you're hurting
With emotional torture.
Why do you sabotage a good thing for a bad one?
Why do you say goodbye to the sight of a rising sun?
Heated visions glimmer right through and out your eyes.
A biased truth to take your side is what you advertise.
No one is listening
'Cause nobody cares.
When you send out your henchman,
Nobody's there to take the fall as a petty scapegoat.
Not even I.
Here I am and here I go.
When you stop, no one knows.
----------------------
Now for the GREAT news.
I have a place for my first live performance. When I get a date set, I'll IMMEDIATELY inform you all. For now, the place is Che Cosa in downtown Mount Clemens. Found the place during the Stars And Stripes Festival. It's a "hole in the wall" cafe that I ABSOLUTELY adore and love. They've got a piano there already so it's not too much of a hassle for me or you. Little to no setup time so you call all come and experience my first performance. Not concerned about a cover price right now because it IS my first performance and all.
So anyways................................... REAL excited................... EEK!!!
Love and Ciao,
Trevor.
