    A mixture of folk, Americana, rock, and instrumental tracks, this is Stephen's most diverse and hard to catagorize release. From the primal influences of "Old Ways" to the acid jazz stylings of "Clueless," Stephen's range is impressive. Whether singing about environmentalism, politics, God, whales, depression, or anger, all is delivered with a confidence that comes from years of making music. This is a total Berg tour de force, with Stephen playing all instruments with the exception of Todd Fugere's classic e-bow stylings on "Ultra Cool".

about

Very old song written around 1981. Vaguely about betrayal and watching someone lose their way.

lyrics

Nostradamus did you proud
Discipleship proved you were all deserving
Following in footsteps bold
I followed though I knew the tide was turning
They no longer cared
They took me away from you

I tried my hand at loving you
But I found you were far beyond approach
I trusted you completely
But changed to everyone you know
But you cannot shut me out
'Cause I'm not one of them

You know I've seen it all before
The open stage, the open door
But they never let me through
They never let me in to see you

Your crowd of minions gets me down
They make me want to go and be your martyr
Flog it in your senseless mind
The dirt you preach forgets me all together
But I once loved you so
But you don't want me back

You know I've seen it all before
The open stage, the open door
But they never let me through
They never let me in to see you
People run away each day
Like you they turn and slip away
They lose their minds, they lose control
Until they are no longer whole
Don't know what I'm going to do
My life means nothing without you

Nostradamus did you proud
Discipleship proved you were all deserving
