Hi Tony! Marvin here, a friend from your Facebook from about 10+ years ago. What drum machine did you use? A 707 perhaps? Thanks! love your work always
I was just taking a shower and could barely hear any music on my phone which I'd put in the sink to amplify it. I was thinking about becoming religious again for the heck of it. And mostly bc I'm old and bc I'm having a kid and my brand of of 'livin right' may be a bit too esoteric for a child. My gf, who has practically zero exposure to any religion, was also feeling like she should fill the void w something sweet and suggested Buddhism. And in my head I was thinking how Buddhism doesn't have guilt and sin and shame and all that drama that I grew up with, for better or worse. And then wondered if that would heighten or destroy or sex life - she might start second-guessing some of the things we do if we went Roman Catholic (my old stomping grounds). Anyway, just some random shower thoughts. I squeegee my butt. Wash behind my ears. I pull back the curtain...I step out.... and all I hear is....'and may the Good Lord bless you'. Guess that's that. On behalf of Jesus, thanks Tonetta!!
This night is lonely Without you The walls are silent Do do you The girl in my heart Has gone away May the good lord guide you in every way Your eyes show beauty From above Your kiss would have been a sweet one The kind I miss You’re a cutie Your charm Anyway I hold/hope you in my arms I feel good about myself I couldn’t of felt this way without your help Most anything I know I can achieve But it would come easier knowing you Love me This night is lonely Without you The walls are silent Do do you The girl in my heart has gone away May the good lord guide you in every way May the good lord guide you in every way May the good lord guide you in every way
crushing heartbreak...probably, maybe divorce that left him with nothing but he channels it through his music in kind of a satirical way, probably to defy what had been done to him... I don't know though to be honest just speculation
DavidandAngeloDNA lots of drugs, mental issues that were there from the beginning and an eventual breakdown resulting in/as a result of his divorce and total separation from his kids. He was never "normal" he just realized it doesn't matter lol
Honestly a legendary indie pioneer.
facts. deserves as much credit as mac demarco but has maybe 10% :( he needs studio recording to really get the recognition deserved
Orange Juice was one of the main pioneers of Indie around 1980-81, was this around the same time?
@@qb9music Yes sir. Tonetta started making music in the early 80s after John Lennon’s death. Orange Juice is a great band too
sadly he'll only gain recognition after his death. that's usually the way it goes

Amazing how the internet can uncover gems from the past that never would make it the mainstream way. Hidden legends of sorts.
He is so handsome in this picture
Not that he isn't always stunning
This pic is so handsome and cute. Wow!!!! Nice song too.
What a beautiful man. Thank you Tonetta for all you have done for outsider music. I remember that first /mu/ thread. God bless you.
His drums and that tambourine so good
my favorite Tonetta song
So happy to have clicked this. Turned the night into magic.
Have cried to this a long time ago. Beautiful
this is about mu niece
where is she now, Tony? didn't she loved you?
I love you Jeff
That’s beautiful.

If anyone wants to play still, the chords are (capo 1st fret) C Am Em G .. hopefully :D
good start. i think it sounds like C Am Dm G and Em on the third round
not sure about the bridge though
@@wa8d4g8i7 Bass is: C# A# D# G# so i guess for guitar : C# A#m D#m G#7
I think it's about time for me to get a guitar.
Juan José thank y’all! wish there were comments like this on every tonetta song 🥺
Why thank you for this reccomendation Mr Ma
Love this. My new favorite song. Thank you.
whered you get that pic of tony lol he looks badass

What the fuck how are you this stupid
I think the chords bared and not open and I think its in standard tuning, the chords are Db-Bbm-Ebm-Ab unless im tone deaf
I reckon the song is in D but the condition of the tape could have slowed it to a half step down
thx mike ma!!
What a Chad
thanks mike
here cause mike
BMW windows hate him
someone got the lyrics ?
This night is lonely
Without you
The walls are silent
Do do you
The girl in my heart
Has gone away
May the good lord guide you in every way
Your eyes show beauty
From above
Your kiss would have been a sweet one
The kind I miss
You’re a cutie
Your charm
Anyway
I hold/hope you in my arms
I feel good about myself
I couldn’t of felt this way without your help
Most anything I know I can achieve
But it would come easier knowing you
Love me
This night is lonely
Without you
The walls are silent
Do do you
The girl in my heart has gone away
May the good lord guide you in every way
May the good lord guide you in every way
May the good lord guide you in every way
is that picture in the top left one of tonys pieces? looks dope
Performing in a scary basement covered with sheets since 1985
Lololololol legend
Thanks mike ma
Always the same drums. Amazing
its only a beat to keep time
Tonetta used to be normal
What happened?
crushing heartbreak...probably, maybe divorce that left him with nothing but he channels it through his music in kind of a satirical way, probably to defy what had been done to him... I don't know though to be honest just speculation
DavidandAngeloDNA lots of drugs, mental issues that were there from the beginning and an eventual breakdown resulting in/as a result of his divorce and total separation from his kids. He was never "normal" he just realized it doesn't matter lol
He's like that Devil in a bar that starts telling you a story... fascinating and horrible and incredibly honest
He actually still hasn't seen his kids
nice
Press 5 for best part
Is that Tonetta? He’s so handsome!
