* Sue Kittiaksorn interview by Musician MP3 content management.

How would you describe the band if you were a pressman or an editor? John Lennon meets Shakira (musically).

Why did you choose your name? No one else in the world has it.

What type of music do you play? When I perform solo, it's just me and my keyboard, in which case the music is pretty subdued and pensive, like that of Sarah MacLachlan. But when I perform with a back-up band, the songs tend to be louder (Alternative perhaps), driven by drums and bass, like Johnny's Got A Brand New Guitar.

How long have you been together? I've been writing songs since the age of fifteen, and started recording them ten years later.

What is your favorite song to perform and Why? Paloma. It's got some good chords with varying bass lines. I can perform it with just my keyboard, and can still get a rich sound. It's a song in Spanish that has a good message.

Where are you planning for your next shows? Small clubs and coffee houses around Hollywood/Los Angeles.

Some Lyrics:

JOHNNY?S GOT A BRAND NEW GUITAR
Johnny's got a brand new guitar in his old beat up car
He lugs it around this crazy town 'cause he wants to be a star
Johnny's got his crazy dreams opposite of where they lead
He sings his fable every night just to be, to be seen
Johnny tries to tough it out, smashing all his lingering doubts
Struggling for his share of fame, following his chosen route
Tries to hang on to his soul, in this industry so cold
He's getting by on cigarettes, just to keep from getting, getting old
Johnny's got to get high on speed, just to fill his aching needs
Always looking for a fix in this business full of greed
Johnny's got a brand new guitar in his old beat up car
He lugs it around this crazy town 'cause he wants to be a star


FADE AWAY
Wish you could see through the pride
Tap into sorrow inside Look into me What you see
I'm a stranger Like you are to me....
You fade away from me So far away
Time's so obsolete Through all eternity
Fade away I stutter with my thoughts in the air
Fade away You come to me disguised in your fear
I'm mute with my words They silence me further
I thought that I had you But time tells me never
It?s all pretend but that serves me just fine
It?s all I can manage for God is divine


TALEENA
She looks outside her window with a stare so empty She sees her life slowly passing by
She stares up at the sky and sees nothing but shadows reminding her of old days gone by
And slowly closing her eyes She searches for the truth beneath the lies
Taleena she cries at night. Taleena she shakes in fright Taleena she doesn't want to hide
Her mind seems to wander to when she gave him up Remorse and regret for what she's done
Her soul once lived as two her heart beat for another And now alone she aches as only one


TIME
Time can linger on as I begin to dream
An abyss I fall into my conscience doesn't see
And time can easily turn to dust before my eyes
As I watch the sun....sunrise
And time releases inhibitions that I hold
Deep inside I harbor contradictions
They leave me cold
And time ceases to exist when I'm bold
As I try to let my life unfold
Time can numb the fear of being alive
As I watch the sun....sunrise
Time can follow me to heaven, I believe
Until then I know....I know I'm free
And time can waste away like crystals in the sand
As the waves wash over my hands

PALOMA
Habia un dia el agua vacio de mar
Habian un dia sirenas bajo de sal
Los suenos de los ninos que giran y giran
Paloma que nos abra la luz que nos salve
Paloma- que nos descubra la luz que nos perdone
Habian un dia paseos hechos de cristal
Habian un dia deseos creados en lo real
Milagros en el cielo que giran y giran
Un angel en la mano que gira y gira
Paloma que nos entregue la luz que nos brille
Paloma que nos diga la luz que nos ame
