Strange music for strange people.
Dollar Bill and The Unmentionables has been recording slightly silly music since 1989. In 2010 we started making videos to stare at while the song plays. Genre: varies, sometimes within the same song even. Be sure to check out the video page, as many of the songs have super high-budget (i.e. $0) music videos

Story behind the song
THANK YOU JAMES!
Lyrics
Dream. Don't sleep Don't forget what you're knowing Time will heal Don't forget what I told you Everything is under control Blink. Don't blink It only takes a moment Wake. Don't dream It's all inside your head Everything is under control Breathe. Don't speak I can hear that you're near me Grieve. Don't weep Don't forget what I'm saying Everything is under control Stay. So calm Changes going forward Speak in dreams You can say what you want to Everything is under control

This song feels like a hit...instantly engaging, strikes an inner chord and stays in your head long after you've walked away from the player. Excellent job in every way.

Great songwriting, and great collab with James. A big full sounding production helps propel it along. More, we need more like this.

Great guitar work and vocals. A great track - it resonates with me but I can't put my finger on it (Bowie?)

A very beautiful intro with the acoustic guitar. The vocals are perfect for the song and Spin is right about Bowie, but I also hear some Greg Lake and David Gilmour references. The way the thing evolves and the little details in the percussion sounds absolutely amazing. Very well written lyrics also, speaks to me about how we think we can control everything, but in reality we are being controlled.

Sorry I missed this earlier, this is a very pleasing tune with an absolutely engaging fresh sound that's quite hard to compare to anything I've heard before. High marks for originality on this collaboration :)

Ah, this is really very good. Yes, Spinaceto is right, there is much of a David Bowie atmosphere in here. I really hope everything IS under control, but I'm not 100% sure. Good job!

What a nice song!! And yes, I miss the "oblique originality" of $Bill... but, this is great you two. So passionate melody, fascinating lyrics. Somehow I had David Bowie in my mind listening to the vocal, what a nice pleasant surprise this amazing tune!! Bravo!! My applause to you two. :)
