New single: Friends Of Cesar Romero || Gameboy America
Write a check mark behind #35 in the Doomed Babe Series by Friends Of Cesar Romero. The latest single in the series arrived at our doorstep yesterday, a mere 5 weeks after we wrote about #34. It’s titled Gameboy America and features 3 brand new hits by the songwriting machine J. Waylon Porcupine. Feelings of longing and heartbreak are never far away with FOCR, and that certainly applies to the new songs. “You took my money and my time too. I turned your gray skies into blue. I was hoping that it wouldn’t be true. I’m just your Gameboy America,” J. Waylong sings on the title track. And before you know it, you’ll be singing along to the bittersweet lines of Somebody’s Somebody: “Baby. Are you avoiding me. Cause I think you’re somebody’s someone, Somebody’s someone, Somebody’s somebody now.”
As always, in spite of all the heartbreak, the songs of FOCR remain infectious and upbeat. And as always, the songs are to the point, none more so than the 54 second Punching Ian Sharp that ends with a well aimed F- You. Good times!
