"Ooh nice kinda atmospheric intro. Esoteric, Syd Barrett/Robyn Hitchcock territory. Gives me a nice floaty feeling in my brain, like after several hits of butterscotch schnapps." (Garageband.com)

Artist picture
We started out in Medieval England and slowly evolved into a lean mean music making machine
Merlin and the Gnometones were a garageband from the sixties. They toured the US playing for small audiences, living day to day. They recorded over 70 songs using what ever equipment they could borrow. Recently, a tape was discovered with 30 of their original recordings. (Ironically in a garage sale) They have been digitally remastered and posted here for your enjoyment. Seriously, I am a non-performing songwriter just trying to get his music out to people who may enjoy it. Most of it falls into the classic rock genre, but there is a little bit of everything here. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to listen.

Story behind the song
I wrote the music and the word television seemed to fit perfectly in the chorus, so here it is.
Lyrics
Television Whatcha watching now Is it something new Is it better Or just the same - as Old show residue Takes you to a place You have never seen Its not hard to Lose your mind in - the Little silver screen Chorus... Television makes you - forget me Your new friends Will fill your life And keep you satisfied. Pick up your remote Put the world on mute Change the channel As you become - a TV prostitute. Hope you like the show For the seventh time You remember Every line - and Know who did the crime. (Musical solo) Chorus... Television makes you - forget me Your new friends Will fill your life And keep you satisfied. Whatcha watching now Is it something new Is it better Or just the same - as Old show residue
