This is a video i made. I spend a lot of hours i hope you like it! I used my photos and videos from the show.

For the record, she sang Solitaire too. The rest of the set list was the same as the previous shows. Her family was there. Her dad and sister put up flags of Greece, Wales and UK and a sign that said 'Welcome home'. She said she was very excited to finally be here and she dedicated the show to her grandmother Lambrini, who passed away. She said that it was the best crowd she ever had and that she didn't expect that. (You can watch videos in the link i gave, i added subtitles because she was talking in Greek). She thanked us many times for being there she was so sweet. After the show some of us waited for her. It took her 2 and a half hours but she finaly came out. She took photos with many of us and when she ran out of time she asked for things to sign. I think everyone got something. We were about 30-40 people. The securities were blocking us, when she was in front of me i lost my chanse because everyone was pushing. So me and a guy next to me hadn't talked to her. So we called her and she came back for us she took my phone and took a very shaked photo but nevermind. I was lucky enough to experience that. She was very kind!

Hey guys!! I met Marina last night after the show! It was fenomenal. She spoke to us in greek and her family was there. It was very special. I am still in Athens so i will post maybe tonight some photos. Check out this video of her speaking in greek dedicating the show to her grandmother. Check the description for the translate:

Hey guys i am seeing Marina in Athens this Saturday, did any of you met her during the tour? how long did you waited for her (before/after the gig). Also this is her first concert in greece so i guess it will be quite special. I'll try to post photos/videos

When i first listened to Lana i was going through a hard break up and her music was like a remedy for me. It was the only interesting thing in my life at the time. I searched and read many interviews of her and i saw the video of the one at Coney Island where she says a quote like: If you write everyday your muse knows where to find you something like that. So i started writing! And Since 2012 i wrote many poems and songs and i feel so good with myself because i turned a bad condition into something beautiful Also Lana introduced me to Barrie's music with whom i can relate very much since i myself have gone through a very dark period in my life. And both of them are my biggest influences (+ Jeff Buckley who i also learned because of Lana).

Created this post to talk about beat generation books, writers and etc.
Actually i'm reading On The Road and i'm loving it. I have plans on reading Owl from Allen Ginsberg and other Kerouac books. After reading OTR (it's the first beat book i'm ever reading) I will watch the film.
What books you guys recomend, why do you like the beat generation? Let's talk about it .
Did someone saw Kill Your Darlings? What you guys think about it? I saw it a few weeks ago and it was because of it I started reading On The Road, I was fascinated with Kerouac and Ginsberg world and I felt the need to read their books. They seemed, I don't know, so real. They kinda made a revolution at that time and I found it amazing.
''I get down to beat poetry and my jazz collection's rare, I can play most anything, i'm a brooklyn baby, i'm a brooklyn baby...''
I read Howl a few times, i have a book called Howl and other Poems so i read some of them. I have On the Road but haven't read it yet. As for the movies i watched On the road and i really liked it. I am not a big fan o Kristen's acting skills but i liked her in this movie. Also saw Kill your darlings and liked it and Howl starring James Franco. There is an amazing animation of the poem featured in the movie someone posted it, i quoted the post.
Also i posted a poem today on my blog called Howl which was inspired by Giensberg's. Check it out here

Had I not been scanning LB Entertainment, I would have missed this. Is Acid Bird going to release Cold Coffee, or is he still having release issues?My feelings are generally really positive. I mean, he did go a different route than the EP, I think, and I'm still digesting that. I liked the idea of the lo-fi ambience in songs (prepared piano as primary synth sound, minimal synth and muddy guitars, reverb), liked his falsetto (night burns, angel tears). Liked that he redid Mary to retrofit the CD style (makes the original single a bit more collectible?). He also seems a bit poppier on songs, though in a melancholic way (angel tears, wherever you go, pictures, could be alt-indie hits?).I kind of missed the Art of Horror, which could have headed the album (and the intro for the album would make some sense as the outro for that song). I also missed the Art of Resurrection (only hearable in ScumBag video) that could have ended the album. This might have given the album more cohesion as a "statement-type" album (for me) and showcase more the guitar side of his instrumentality, but my only real agenda in this suggestion is that more Barrie is more Barrie (and I think those 2 songs were on the original track list he released). I don't know if he would have had to retrofit the songs' styles too much given the Chivalry is Alive ... song is included unchanged, but anyway, I hope those two other songs end up later in his formal discography.I think the plan is to relese it but we don't have any info yet. I really really liked Murder Murder, Night burns, Wherever i go and Angel Tears. And i enjoyed the album's vibe so much. they would definitely be hits. As he said it is a "sad disco". I too wanted Art of Ressurection here (and i relly love Magic me i want the full song. He once played it on periscope and it is magical, but i don't think he will release it :/ )
As for the Chivalry featured unchanged it is because it was recorded with the same producer as the rest of the songs of Cold Coffee (Rob Schnapf, Elliot Smith's producer). Mary i think was produced by Barrie and Jonathan Wilson. As for Way over my Head and Art of Horror i have no idea.

it turned out that is not Angel Tears! It is a different song. You can listen to Angel Tears at www.bazsongs.com

Barrie's album Cold Coffee is streaming for free on his site www.bazsongs.com for another 6h. I think it is fucking amazing. What are your thoughts? (listen with headphones).
I noticed he changed the lyrics to I see her smiling. It was a part definitely talking about his relationship with lana where it said "And further long the way i see us in headlines, waisted away me and then you". Now he sings "I fell further down the drain I’m leaving in midnight I’m wasted away living without you"
I tried to write down the lyrics. English is not my mother language so correct me please! Some words i didn't understand i put (...)

Pictures
Since I left you I went out of my mind
I had nowhere else to go
All these pictures running through my weak mind
They say that I am not good on my own
It’s been 19 years since I last felt alright
My father said that I was going insane
Because I had abilities (..) on me
Pain (in picture?) without word
Since I came here I had nobody
But I’ve been living on my own
But all these memories crushing through my weak mind
They say that I am not good being alone
I see her smiling
Out under the scars she’s waiting for something
Something that's new, never knew
The girl that's in the park, batting her eyelids
She’s waiting for you, this is true
Hiding in the dark escaping the madness
Listening to tunes about blues
I fell further down the drain I’m leaving in midnight
I’m wasted away living without you
You're a hazard in my head and I need you
You're a hazard in my head but I need you
And there’s this darkness hanging over me
And it's not moving until I’ll set her free
Now she lays over me and then lies over me
Can you see me smiling?
Now she lays over me and then lies over me
Can you see her smiling?
You're a hazard in my head and I need you x4
Murder
Murder murder, I kill you baby I kill you lady, kill
I love my love, my hypocrisy the philosophy is you
She smiles, I smile as the kids wept, I wanna please you my girl
A fate to burn in, these days i'm yearning
I fate to burn in
Lover, lover time to spit on me, time to spit time to kill
She smiles, I smile as the kids wept, I wanna please you my girl
A fate to burn in, these days i'm yearning
I fate to burn in

Sadness happens again, it’s becoming my friend
I’ve not been out for days
All these (..) makes me feel sick
Palms are sweaty and thin
I (..) ashamed of you (?)
What’s this thing in my mind, things are harder to find
And I miss when I was young
He hits me with the blue cause he wants me to show
Whatever’s on my mind
Now as the sunshine’s by he’s my only light today
(…)
I take a lonely fight with my lonely mind (..)
Who’s this devil in my mind?
Makes love so hard to find
I’m looking all the time
I made a deal and he’s not going home
Once (..) face it on your own
And all will be revealed
Now as the sunshine’s by he’s my only light today

I take a lonely fight with my lonely mind (..)

Chivalry Is Alive And Well And Living In Glasgow
I thought I knew, thought I knew, everything
I didn’t know a thing
But here she comes again and again and again
I’m sleeping in her brain
Well I guess we’re all the same
Floating down the drain
Well he’s a man, he’s a man, he’d do anything
He doesn’t know her (name?)
Cause we’re gonna sing in the rain, in the rain
Till someone starts to sing
When our love’s in vain
Just waiting to complain
[instrumental verse]
So tell me your story – I’ll tell you mine
Tell me you love me – and I will be fine
I need no reason – I need no right
I was just staying up all the time
Tell me your story – I’ll tell you mine
Tell me you’ll stay with me all night
I need no reason – I need no right
I was just staying up all the time
[instrumental verse]
She thought she knew, thought she knew everything
She didn’t know a thing
Cause her baby cries again and again and again
Sleeping in her brain
Ah well I guess we’re all the same
Just floating down the drain
So tell me your story – I’ll tell you mine
Tell me you love me – and I will be fine
I need no reason – I need no right
I was just staying up all the time
Tell me your story – I’ll tell you mine
Tell me you’ll stay with me all night
I need no reason – I need no right
I was just staying up all the time

How come this place that i was brought up in
don't seem to shine, the way that i want it to shine.
So tell me why the hell i'm brought here?
Did you bring me to be some fool?
I'm afraid that i'm not a fool.
I'm like the bird that won't stop singing,
i'm like the child who's insanely swinging,
it's just enough to open up your mind.
Why do i feel as though my lucks died?
when i don't want to have fun tonight, i just never was fun.
So tell me all about my history, i feel like a scum bag boy,
i'm sure i am a scum bag boy.
I'm like the bird that won't stop singing,
i'm like the child who's insanely swinging,
it's just enough to open up your mind.
I'm like the man who said he has no shadow,
then tells the people fuck you sado's!
it's just enough to open up your mind.
Mary, there's no need to worry,
i'm only your grandson, and you'll be fine, fine, fine.
Mary, there's no need to worry, i'm only your grandson.
And you'll be fine, fine, fine.
Fine, fine, fine...

And i don't want to shine no more.

Angel Tears
She purifies everything that she touches
She’s home she dreams of being alone
She fights as she strange dance in the hall
I’d love to know what she knows
Oh what she knows
I love her, the dreams that fear
Another tear ..
She flows straight through me like wine again
Right and into the sun
Angel tears
She cries them when she sees my fears
Enlighten into the sun
She’s so crazy
She followed me across the river
Into the sea
And anyways I feel done
Without you
You hate me and I hate you
I lose my mind I lost it for you
And now I’m blind
I dreamed you up
Now i fall behind
Floating through all the skies at night
I’m on my boat to the moon
Boat to the moon
And my dear you’re everything to me
Everything
I can’t quite tell you enough again
I’m going through it back again
It’s easy but it depends
Angel tears
She cries them when she sees my fears
Enlighten into the sun
She’s so crazy
She followed me across the river
Into the sea
And anyways I feel done
Without you
You hate me and I hate you
Wherever I go
I didn’t mean to be shy
I want to talk with you
And son what have you done?
Oh she’s made a mess of you
Can it be perfect?
Can it be real?
Gone, maybe she’s gone
You’ve got not time to lose
You give, you give all you had
Oh but it only works if you
Wished to be perfect
Wished to be real
And is it so simple
To live in fear?
Oh but i
Oh I’m tired
And why won’t the sun shine
When I really need it to
And oh that would be all
When everything was new
Can it be perfect?
Can it be real?
And is it so simple
To live in fear?
Oh but i
Oh I’m tired
X2
And wherever you go
And whatever you do
You know I’m always counting for you
Only I feel bad for you
And whatever you need
And wherever you go
You feel like (..) is running so (cold?)
Only I feel bad for you
I feel bad
Thunder
Time’s getting older
Most I lay under
All of the way the night knows
Remembered how I found you
My crazy baby
She’s always maybe
Another way she fooled me
Either gone it can’t be
You wake so gentle
I wake up mental
I want to kiss your eyes babe
She blows my fucking mind away
Love from a distance
She drives me closer
Anyways I’ll find you
If you really want me to
Time’s getting older
Most I lay under
I love the way the night knows
I love the way my mind moves
(he is whispering something I can’t understand what)
Hidden track
Before I sleep and kill the day
I wanna kiss your pain away
You are my girl the only one in the world
And I promise you everything
And after this would you spare me a kiss?
I need to show you again
I wanna see you I wanna know you
I heard the whisper, it came from the night
Said I’m running out of time
You’re so beautiful
So beautiful
So, so, so beautiful
I’m so (horrible ?)
And in the night I started falling out of luck
Out of luck
And in the night there lies a girl
She’s waiting for me

Since today is Barrie's birthday and we are reaching the end of 2015, here's a video review of the past year. Hope you enjoy it as i did making it
-
It's Barrie
How do you know this? Is it official?Edit: I asked Barrie he said he plays guitar and he is also the producer of the song.
-
Maybe they had a breakup conversation where she thought it was clear that she'd ended it and he didn't realize that's what had happened...
He said he went to see her in London but she couldn't stay for long and he was chilling at the hotel when he found out. So they were together, she left for the USA and then the interview came out.
Barrie's account is not inconsistent with some comments she has made about their breakup in interviews:
It sounds like she may have stopped seeing him, but never officially told him it was over.
In other words, the fadeaway or ghosting.
She said she hadn't seen him for months. They were spotted together in LA early in April and then Rob posted photos of Barrie backstage in Lana's show in Texas (April 23rd). After that Barrie left for Glasgow for his brother's wedding where he stayed there for a month. In June Barrie was in London with Lana as he stated in this interview. Here's a photo of Barrie and Blake posted in June 19th:
A few days later the interview was released. Barrie traveled back to LA and run into TMZ stating it's all lies but a few days after that the photos of Lana and Francesco in Italy were published. So in the one month Barrie was absent Francesco got between them? Whatever happened, it was definately not several months, just one month Barrie left for his brother's wedding.

"Barrie-James O'Neil"
Barrie gave money as well and recieved some of Daniel's original art and the Executive Producer credit. +He also met Daniel maybe he is in the soundtrack too
-
Did they write it together or were other people involved in cowriting?
Im assuming it was just between them, seems more intimate. Also I'm guessing Barrie produced it
Barrie wrote the song, Lana wasn't involved in the song writing. Barrie stated it wasn't a duet, but then he featured Lana on it and after that he couldn't release the song. Probably Lana's label was not allowing him to release it.
-
Barrie just posted a demo of an unreleased track called 'Angel' http://bazsongs.tumblr.com/post/129868662692

(He posted a photo of Cold Coffee's tracklist and it was handwritten so i am not sure i got these 100% right)
-
Is it possible she doesnt want it to be released and shes using her label to do the dirty work? She seems to be so hard with all her unreleased stuff so maybe she just doesnt like it and since she cant work on it shes blocking the release. She's pretty much independent now.
Probably that's what happened. What i don't understand is since Barrie wrote the song, why can't he release it without Lana?
-
Just on the basis of what you said, I'm taking "no label interest" to mean "dissatisfied with the current deal and holding out for a better one". At least, I'm skeptical of another interpretation, given the lack of details, and given the fact of an EP release. As far as Riverside goes, it was never required for the LP, though he did release the lyrics for it a while back and they seemed pretty unlikely to piss anybody off. Now some have heard the song (same lyrics?), though not me, because Periscope is an intentionally temporary promotion service (and that aspect of it sucks, imo), but I do wonder what people, who have heard the song, think of it.
The song was very beautiful. His voice was so soft and the melody so sweet. It's a pity. I asked him why he won't go indie and release his album by himself on itunes and said that record companies give you money to promote your stuff and a bigger audience will hear you ao he is waiting for a record deal. Also about the money i asked if he considered swlling some merch and he said yes he did for a while but then periscope was stuck so i didn't hear the full answer. Barrie is currently in Scotland. He cancelled a show he had for the 25th and left in a rush to go home. He must be in a sad mood. I hope he will be back soon
-
Unfortunately no record label has shown any interest in Cold Coffee. Barrie is really sad about this. He is really proud of this album. Today he said on Periscope that he quits music. He said he has no inspiration lately but he will not stop writing songs. He will stop playing live. I really hope this is not a final decision. Also he said that he has a lot of songs and short movies and weird videos that are unreleased. And he played Riverside live on his guitar. He said that he wrote it 2,5 years ago and the original version was without Lana. Then he recorded it with Lana and now he can't release the song. He said he don't think it will ever be released and it is not his fault..
-

It's been a while since the last time i posted here. So as posted above Cold Coffee is out you can purchase it in iTunes, Amazon, Tidal, 7digital (UK), Google Play.
I only found one review and was dissapointed by it. But Barrie's manager is doing a great job and i think soon enough it will be noticed.
So here's a few updates:
-Barrie is on Vevo
-He did a couple of shows, you can see photos/videos here. There is a gig coming this Saturday (16th) in Glasgow. If you are using Bandsintown track him here.
-He did a session with Tenement TV. Photos. Video soon
-He did an interview for a Russian magazine. You can read it here.
Also i wanted to say that it wasn't only Riverside that got leaked. His whole album was leaked. I listened to it before it was taken down. Loved Magic me and Art of Resurrection. but the album wasn't finished, in Angel Tears for example you can hear voices at the end talking about the recording. One thing i notice is a change of lyrics in Angel Tears
UNRELEASED: She followed me across the river and to the sea, i love her and i want you, you want me, i need you, you need me.
COLD COFFEE: She followed me across the river and to the sea, and anyways i feel dumb without you, you hate me, i hate you
And if you haven't watched the promos for Cold Coffee just check out this AMAZING video featuring the milky way and an instrumental of the Art of Resurrection
P.S. i think moving back to Glasgow was the best decicion he made. Everything seem to flow in his favor
