an ape like me

found recordings of practice sessions with my friend eric g. on guitar. 

a very relevant song about staying home all the time. originally by fats waller. 

- can't help falling in love - I sang and recorded this for my dear friends Marie and Chris to walk down the aisle to at their ridiculously gorgeous mariage in the south of France.

night and day, sung by me with my friend eric g. on the guitar.

billie holiday fave, singing and guitar with my pal eric. grad school is better with jazz.

but i never heard it singing.

not endorsing valentine's day, but its tomorrow. just a topically relevant song. recorded in one-take.

holiday season pathos. scratchy throat. terrrrible uke playing. also, the julie london one, not the justin timberlake. 

- i can't give you anything but love - a cover of a song i've heard by billie holiday. baby.

this was my go-to emo song when i was thirteen years old, lying awake thinking of the boy. so lovely.

your kisses are worth waitin' for, believe me 

for this thursday at the brill flipside cafe in hauz khas village - artwork of brandosaurus henderson.

SUCH a good song - recorded with minimal and sporadic uke playing (read: because i couldn't play it, but let's pretend its all about the jaaaazz soul)

singing it all away.
