\"\"think we’re gonna try something new, here.<\/p>\n

I recorded this a few days ago and put it aside. As I was prepping the file to use it today, trimming the clunks and thunks off the begining and end and outputting it to an mp3, and I sort of got the song caught in my head.<\/p>\n

I started singing it out loud (I live by myself — I can do these things) and finally picked up a guitar and started playing the song much more aggressively and decided I really liked it better.<\/p>\n

But us database guys hate wasted anything, so I decided to post this one anway — and as soon as I get done with this post, I’m going to hit the big red button and record what I’m hearing in my head right now, and, barring unforseen circumstances, like the sudden onslaught of a bout of good taste or better judgement, I should post that version <\/span>tomorrow. So, it’ll be an opportunity for comparative analysis and criticism. In fact, for my next project, I think I’ll just do a year’s worth of different versions of this song<\/span>.<\/p>\n

By the way, this is yet another song from the ’96 project, The Barista Cycle. Oh, yeah… and yes, I am<\/span> painfully aware of how much the tempo varies, sometimes within a bar or two in today’s version. All I can say is, wait’ll you hear tomorrow’s version.<\/p>\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
\nYou’re too much trouble, Christine
\n<\/span>You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span>
\nSo Why do I love you, Christine<\/span>
\n You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Christine on a beach, Christine on a plane
\nChristine in a cafe with the boulevardiers
\nChristine on the set Christine in my head
\nChristine in my heart and tearing up my bed<\/p>\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine…<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span>
\nChristine I’m terrified just holding your hand
\nChristine you twist me like no one else can
\nChristine you’re crazy but you got a plan
\nworld domination begins with one man<\/span><\/p>\n

You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
\nYou’re too much trouble, Christine
\n<\/span><\/span>You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span><\/span>
\nSo Why do I love you, Christine<\/span>
\n You’re too much trouble, Christine<\/span>
