Myra Flynn
From ANDRAS JONES: Songwriter JAY GREEN of the band IDEAL is one of MYRA FLYNN’s illustrious friends who joined us for these Pop Oracle session. Our conversation delved into Myra’s evolution towards a musical identity that weaves all of her influences from black soul music to Celtic soul music to Joni Mitchell whose landmark album inspired the title of the song which is randomly chosen to answer Jay’s question about “love”. Longtime listeners to the show will remember we recently did a Radio8Ball tribute to Ms. Mitchell, which is where we first met GABRIEL GORDON who introduced us to BRIAN BENDER who introduced us to Myra, so it all comes back to Joni Mitchell.
POP ORACLE Song of The Day (December 18, 2018): OLIVIA DE LA CRUZ “Made of Stone”
Blue
Verse 1:
I’ve Never seen you
But i know you’re there
Waiting and watching for those who aren’t scared
To live with their darkness in that room that we shared
To live there with you
Some days you come with your arms stretched out wide
Like a mother who beckons her children inside
And you promise to rest these tired eyes of mine
You promise to rest
Chorus:
Because you’re my blue
There’s nothing I wont do for you
So tell me that you love me too
Tell me that you’re my, my baby blue
Verse 2:
You’re a dream weaver
Youre a sad empty sigh
And you need me to live
But you come here to die
When I’m beaten and broken
And unable to try
You cradle me while I cry
So tell me your stories darling
Wont you tell me your fears?
As Baren as my heart
Has been all these years
Because we are not strangers
And we are not peers
And I love you
My dear
Full Chorus:
Because you’re my blue
There’s nothing I wont do for you
So tell me that you love me too
Tell me that you’re my, my baby blue
There’s no one I wont leave for you
So tell me that you love me too
Tell me that you’re my…
