I absolutely LUV this band...My sons turned me on to them about 7yrs ago and they've been a favorite of mine ever since.Great musicians all around! Luv you guys!
“Ours” es en realidad la agrupación del talentosísimo cantautor y músico multi-instrumentista Jimmy Gnecco, cuyo primer álbum formal, “Distorted Lullabies”, constituye uno de esos muy extraños casos donde una banda o artista produce un álbum íntegro de tal magistralidad que pareciera ser resultado de un momentáneo lapso de inspiración musical que jamás volverá a repetirse en el propio artista. “Distorted Lullabies” de ‘Ours’ es un caso muy similar a lo que sucedió con el grandioso álbum “Argus” de la banda ‘Wishbone Ash’: uno no se explica tal grado de inspiración en un artista o agrupación musical cuya carrera discográfica subsecuente no pareciera reflejar, siquiera cercanamente, la calidad de su trabajo más celebrado. Es como si la claridad requerida hubiese sido tal que se agotó la fuente de inspiración creativa una vez concluida la “obra maestra”, valga la expresión. De este álbum, cuyo repaso reiterado recomiendo fuertemente al escucha, es difícil elegir una sola pieza que destaque sobre otra y además se hace más complejo aún proponerla en forma aislada, máxime que el orden de cada pieza dentro del álbum es casi perfecto y quizás por ello las piezas inseparables. El álbum “Distorted Lullabies” solo se comprende del todo escuchándolo íntegro y en el orden en que se presenta. Manifestado ello, con dificultad electiva , opto por recomendar en particular esta, la excelente “Meet me in the tower”, sin dejar de insistir que esta misma se comprende mejor escuchando la que en el álbum le precede e incluso aquella que le sigue.
I'm paralyzed from head down Realized pushing their doubts I'm burned by all the fire That's spread within my house You put them there so you can put them out When courage strikes we'll come out And wait around with our heads down Turn me to the sky, turn me upside down A way to feel alive, a life that's mine Cause I am like a big strong cable I am like a girl so soft inside Finally today I'm able To put you in the ground I'll meet you in the ground The mirror fell and I I may as well have been blind The days passing like cars I'll meet you in the tower If they can dream then Oh why can't I? I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2] Everyone will see [Repeat: x2] I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2] Everyone will see [Repeat: x2] I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2] Everyone will see [Repeat: x2]
There is a direct link, Jimmy and Jeff were friends, Jimmy was also Jeffs guitar tech. Absolutely amazing technique Jimmy....I trained professionally for 6 years with your voice to guide me...Thx bro.
@dangerboymusic He was great friends with Jeff Buckley and many of his tunes on this record were written about him and his death. Especially this tune. it was written about Buckley.
@dangerboymusic the singer was not only influenced by Jeff Buckley but they were also friends from what I understand. Jeff went around and joined every band that would have him in NYC to really experience music and thus he knew just about everyone in the NYC band scene at the time. I heard about the band-a-thon that Jeff did from the singer he worked with in Murphy's Law....Jeff was a seriously cool cat!!!!!!
@HeLLofNorTH it's funny...the band experienced next to zero success, and their second album was much more lauded by critics and it wasn't as good as distorted which was laughed at by critics...this album is the Hook of the of the music industry at that time. I think Jimmy should resurface as a solo artist and stylize more...his voice will always get hearts pumpin', but perhaps the formula was to straight forward melodic hard rock.

I'm paralyzed from head down
Realized pushing their doubts
I'm burned by all the fire
That's spread within my house
You put them there so you can put them out
When courage strikes we'll come out
And wait around with our heads down
Turn me to the sky, turn me upside down
A way to feel alive, a life that's mine
Cause I am like a big strong cable
I am like a girl so soft inside
Finally today I'm able
To put you in the ground
I'll meet you in the ground
The mirror fell and I
I may as well have been blind
The days passing like cars
I'll meet you in the tower
If they can dream then
Oh why can't I?
I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2]
Everyone will see [Repeat: x2]
I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2]
Everyone will see [Repeat: x2]
I've finally stabilized [Repeat: x2]
Everyone will see [Repeat: x2]
Distorted Lullabies is perfect.
What a song!!

Gr8 Band!
@dangerboymusic He was great friends with Jeff Buckley and many of his tunes on this record were written about him and his death. Especially this tune. it was written about Buckley.
@HELLofNorTH Jimmy was Jeff's sound/guitar tech.
No, he wasn't.
@dangerboymusic
the singer was not only influenced by Jeff Buckley but they were also friends from what I understand.

@HeLLofNorTH Listen to any Jeff Buckley song and you will quickly find that he and Jimmy have very similar singing styles. There is your link.
@HeLLofNorTH Link = Both AMAZING artists! : )
@HeLLofNorTH The lead singer of Ours use to be a guitar tech for Jeff Buckley.
No, he wasn't. The were only friends for a short time.
@HeLLofNorTH definite link, jimmy was mentored by jeff
@HeLLofNorTH it's funny...the band experienced next to zero success, and their second album was much more lauded by critics and it wasn't as good as distorted which was laughed at by critics...this album is the Hook of the of the music industry at that time. I think Jimmy should resurface as a solo artist and stylize more...his voice will always get hearts pumpin', but perhaps the formula was to straight forward melodic hard rock.
@HeLLofNorTH and i guess they were friends...before Jeff passed
So this music has "turned you on"? Because it has done the same to me.
Jeff mentored him, that's the link
@HeLLofNorTH true but I have the feeling is not one of the most down-to-earth person...
