about

believe it or not, this is a love song (for jay). here's a video of it (live for Popdose's Parlour to Parlour series)--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xdx7icCpWEA

lyrics

this is our home
and when we die
nobody is gonna want it the way it is
nobody is gonna want it the way it is
the way it is

and you and i
agonizing over where our things should go
picking out the places where our things would go
our things will go
our things will go

let them divide
with cigarettes
and faces that are hard and dirty from the dust
faces that are hard and dirty look at us
look at our stuff

and make a pile
of every little thing that might be worth the while
any little thing that might be worth it
any little thing that might be worth it
any little thing that might be worth it

i always thought, but never said
that i could never be as happy as i was
nobody could make me happy the way you made me
nobody could make me happy the way you made me

about

Rachel Taylor Brown Portland, Oregon

Rachel was born in Portland and lives nearby with her beloved husband Jay. She makes disturbing yet ultimately sensible songs you can sometimes dance to.

She sees loads of ugly and beauty in the world. Trying to capture that sweet and sour thing in a song is what she’s mostly trying to do.

She records with audio midwife and dear friend Jeff Stuart Saltzman and his cats.

Thanks for stopping by!
