Had to try — and why’s that?
To find my clumsiness pushed to the side
And gnawing frustrations denied
I’m satisfied.
Another Sunday won’t defeat me
I’ve got a life enough to keep me occupied
You’ll see me smiling
Not denying anything.
(Little Bobby Fogarty voice from 1977 after a trip to the Brookfield Zoo): “Hah, boy! Was that neat. When we went by these mountain goats, we saw these gophers running around in there. One of ’em was right next to one of ’em — it was…it was CRAZY, NUTSO! Oh, yeah, and we ate these things…”
True and simple, real things
Affect me — not my enemies
And one and one make one and one…
That’s easier for me.
Had to try — and why’s that?
To find my clumsiness pushed to the side
And gnawing frustrations denied
I’m satisfied.
I’m satisfied.
Satisfied inside my mind.
Satisfied, no mistake
No more most that I can take…
[Blah, blah, blah, and so on. We get it!]
Lyrics © Robert Glen Fogarty, 1992

Hands down my favourite vaporwave album of all time. Every song is absolutely awesome and the album was a soundtrack to many smoke up sessions with the boys. Hard to pick a favourite but it’d have to be the one the started it all “ж”

⛩️🌇 I hope there are tons of AMVs spawned for these wonderfully scenic tunes. I'm sure people are would be inspired to match this energy with visuals.
