New Video – We Are The Strange Ones

So come on kids paint the Strange One’s spackle, shake off your shackle, don’t give your demographic to the cruel and needy greed, don’t let them feed, steer them to their knees… Until we rearrange let’s force the change, make their savage selfishness seem so strange… We Are The Strange Ones

A bit blurry (let’s call it artistic) but here is the newer version of this song, with the wonderful addition of Nate Lay on guitar and vocals…

New Video – Ginger Dizzy!

Ginger Dizzy is an important song for The Repressions, as it tends to make audiences happy and sing along, which is one of the most meaningful things that music can do.  It is also the song that inspired the “vaudeville” part of The Repressions’ style. There are quite a few versions out there, Barbara and Ben, just Barbara, just Nate, the recorded version with Barbara and Nate, but this live performance captured this week actually features all three Repressions… the new definitive version…

Sometimes it is better, or maybe a little necessary,  to be hazy and out of it, rather than sad… of only for a little while… Confusion you can choose is better than the blues…

New Video – LIFE SIZE UNICORN

Youtube is very excited to have this video for LIFE SIZE UNICORN from the February 3 show. We hope you are a little excited too. This is Nate Lay, the third Repression, performing his original song. It is pretty magical.

A SONG FOR ICHARUS – New Video

A SONG FOR ICHARUS June 2017

Let me down
I know I cannot hit that high
Bring me down
It’s not a place that I can live
Please kill this climb so fast it dies
Let me down
The clamber can’t be comprehended
Backward space can’t be transcended
Disappoint me now may I descend
We always know the top’s the end
Let me down
You know I cannot scale that sky
Bring me down
It’s not a place where I can live
Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind
Let me down
The undermost should be by home
The bottom rock fell on my head
I’ll burrow in the basic basement
Content a life with no event
Please bury me some more……… Bury me some more
Let me down
You know I cannot crucify
Bring me down
It’s not a place where I can live
Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time
Let me down
It’s safer sinking sliding, let me scramble off your shoulders
I can’t fall fast enough fail fast I can’t let fate fare bolder
Take me below with words you know will mar me
Lacerate me harm me strike me now and scar me
Bust me up to keep me down now
I’ll clutch the ground now
Please bury me some more…….. Bury me some more
Let me down
You know it tore me up to try
Bring me down
I never should have tried to glide
It’s not a place where I can live
My childish strive can you forgive me
Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time will find me rising
Let me down
Let me down
Let me down
Please kill this climb so fast it dies inside my mind before the time will find me rising
We always know the top’s the end.
