about

In early 2023, after an enforced health break we decided to go into the studio to record some of our live favourites. 6 tracks are recorded and the first two are now available for you to hear. Recorded in 6Db Studios, Salford by Ding Archer, they are rawer, more in your face versions than the original 'demos'. We hope you like them as much as we do and we look forward to bringing you the rest over the next few months.

This song references two of our influences in Mr. Verlaine and the Advert man (Mr. TV Smith) Unfortunately Mr. Verlaine is sadly no longer with us but we hope we have produced something that he may have liked.

lyrics

Better put a call in to Mr Verlaine
Heard a rumour that you’re planning to come back again
Sitting pretty and waiting for another day
Such a pity that your movie doesn’t always end that way

Looks like someone’s got your heart again
Could it ever be the same

Never gonna be like it is on TV
Will you ever see that its make-believe
Never gonna feel like you want it to be
Never gonna be like it is on the TV

Better take it up with the Advert man
Heard a rumour that you might even have a plan
Nothing funny if everybody else has gone
The clever money says nobody left to carry on.

Looks like someone’s got your heart again
Could it ever be the same

Never gonna be like it is on TV
Will you ever see that its make-believe
Never gonna feel like you want it to be
Never gonna be like it is on the TV

The Ruby Tears

The Ruby Tears started life as an entirely online collaboration. March 2020, we found ourselves at home and with plenty of time. We decided to write and record an album. We have since written, recorded and released 20 original songs and 2 cover versions and there are more in the pipeline. Our influences have come from the late 60s, 70s rock, New Wave and 80s Post Punk. Check it out!!! ... more
