No time was wasted not indeed The perfect moment meant to be with me The table settled in a lapse Hot water turing in a cup of tea You swear you know the words I'm drawning into tears I can't believe we're ready So start to sing a song Your jangle indie pop It's happening already Recording Sarah, Ah! Around the World in 80 Dates Was an excuse to run and fly away My heart a piece in your board game keep moving there and back again to play My Disney Seventeen With candy rosaries Is eating jelly-babies As good as we could be Blue eyes deceiving me We're going to go steady Recording Sarah, Ah!

"I'm looking at the big sky" 'Cause show is such a bore Crowd crowling in the yard Won't make me less alone And everything is clean and still and bright I know that they are far, in the dark, still they shine Wishing on 10.000 stars For each star I wish my dream come true Wishing on 10.000 stars And each of my dreams is you - You... - What's that? - Yeah, you! - Oh, no... - Are you looking at me? - Are you looking at me? - Don't really know... - Beware... - Should I? - Take care... - I'm trying! - ... dreams might come true! - Shoot! Then they began to fall All above our heads Nobody was aware Attracted by the stage An airplane passing by Could steal some on the fly I had to take my chance I gave'em all your name Wishing on 10.000 stars For each star I wish my dream come true Wishing on 10.000 stars And each of my dreams is you Wishing on 10.000 stars They're shining alright as good as you Wishing on 10.000 stars And each of my dreams is you YOU [CANONE 1] Countessly they congregate Silently at heaven's gate [CANONE 2] Are our prayers prayed in vain Gone in interstellar space [CANONE 3] Star I command Make it so soon as you can

Oh, what a super surprise! You baked a cake and now it's mine Oh, what a super surprise! Your sulk is turning in a smile What a super surprise! What a super surprise! What a super surprise! I was ready for a fight Now I see you're calm In the end I'm really glad It turned out you called Won two tickets to the show Now I'm not alone Let's not waste some other time Keep the engine warm Ready to start! Oh, what a super surprise! The U.F.O.s are shooting stars! Oh, what a super surprise! Another day to the deadline What a super surprise! What a super surprise! See the statue in park Moving in diguise Changing pose from time to time Any blink of eye Have to watch the polar bear Just because you asked As I look just to pretend One kiss meets my neck What a delight! Oh, what a super surprise! A double rainbow in the sky Oh, what a super surprise! At last World Peace has come to style What a super surprise! What a super surprise! Oh, what a super surprise! Our love turned out to be a lie! Oh, what a super surprise! The plane is late and I won't fly... Oh, what a super surprise!

Present Present Knock Knock When future comes Super surprised Go wide the door Be there When Spring returns Got some smile in a box Better take it before it's gone It's a present present To date only to day With no past and no future No waits or delays It's a present present We got only today So let's make it happen Before "Now" it's too late Bang Bang A move, you're dead Just a kiss And you'll get well Tick Tock Strike the clock Hit home run but don't run... Don't look, just carry on hold on a little more close your eyes buy not for too long

Everyday People rush Just to catch the sight On Armani wings they fly Over city lights Got confused By your smile And cosmetic lies Promise on a brocken glass With a lipstick sign ... like the latest style ... like the latest style Wall of glasses, iron pipes This is where you hide By an old house in decline Under Calvin Signs Steal your heart Make it mine On my shirt It's the final fashion Like a badge Make it shine Wear it proud It's my new obsession Like a pin On my skirt Make it bleed It's my latest passion Look at that Scarlett cut Could ber me and my final fashion A dilight So sublime Be my guest It's the final fashion Floor is red I look down Don't you try to smile Pretty strange I feel blue Think I've lost my mind Any feeling has its cost A note we forgot On te escape from private lives Blogging our prides Any expedient is allowed To mask inside riots Being quiet, walking slow All the catwalk long Man killer kill some time with that Girl killer save some time for that Man killer kill some time with that Girl killer save some time for that Man killer kill some time with that Girl killer save some time for that Save some time to care

A Date 03:09
I just had a date and I found her I just met the girl and I like her Never been in town Let’s go walk for a ride Too late for the park There’s a new place to hide Take me to the bus Let’s go down to the stop Have a cup of tea Blend your sugar with me Gotta go for a while Hope you don’t change your mind to lose your time with a scumbag like me Again… I just had a date and I found her I just met the girl and I like her Wanna hold your hand Hope the timing is right If your’ not that girl Can you act for a while So don’t look surprised We got stars in our eyes Cought your milky way Hope the coffee is fine Gonna stay for a while Hope you don’t realy mind but take your time Turn the walk in your life Again I just had a date and I found her I just met the girl and I like her I got her, I got her, I got her, I got in her mind…

New Jersey calling for a race I hope that we can meet again I bought a cool Southern Flag We could wave all along the chase Wanna learn all I can About defective brakes 'Cause I don't wanna stop Untill it's too late Rebel Rebel Car Won't your drive me fast I am a bomb and I think I'll blast Rebel Rebel Car Won't your take me far I'm burning fuel I can run for miles Rebel Rebel Car To transmission parts Show me the deal To repleace my heart Rebel Rebel Car Oh, Rebel Rebel Car The bomb, The bomb, Drop, drop the bomb Gotta chose the right fanfare Late this night we can detonate Kill some time and hold your breath We're about to accelearate 'Cause my blood is on fire You can see my desire It's the pressure applied On pounds of dynamite Rebel Rebel Car Won't your drive me fast I am the bomb and I think I'll blast Rebel Rebel Car Won't your take me far I'm burning fuel I can run for miles Rebel Rebel Car To transmission parts Show me the deal To repleace my heart Rebel Rebel Car Oh, Rebel Rebel Car

Sleepwalking 02:58
She was a girl with a mind on her own She wasn’t sure she was wake and alone Off on the floor was she called by the night Fading from a curtain on her humble dressing gown here... She's walking Sleepwalking Night birds and shadows are amazed and turn their heads on While the girl keeps on walking Souls locked in prison are amazed by such a vision Still hey won’t do the talking and the girl keeps on walking Through the park and the cold rails Far away from the montains She’s walking Sleepwalking Bedtime stories Will fade out in the morning But the girl keeps on walking Moon ground crowling just to see things falling On the way of her strolling But the girl keeps on going She was a girl with a heart sour and kind She was so tired of a life so untied She closed her eyes as she laced off high tops Turning all a sudden she’s back from where she started She’s walking Sleepwalking

Lucy, you see, is fine Lucy, loonie, be mine I could talk but my tongue is tied I could look but you’re out of sight I should give smooth hands but I’m playing hard I could smile but you seem so far I could lie but I won’t back down I shoud speak my mind but I’d spoil the sound You told me it’s over But how’s supposed to be over How can you claim it’s the end When romance has never began You swear that it’s over the wrong last leaf of the clover I should stop hang where you stand It’s YOU that came in my place

Now Love 03:34
Everything starts crumbling Break or fall apart Temporary madness Of the spotless mind Breaking like an earthquake Reaching for your heart Hard to take positions When I'd need a guide Lines we linked together They say it's a trap But no no no no no I know, I know La la la la la it's love it's love But no no no no no I know, I know I don't think I'm wrong It's love Something in the room changed Turning everything Spoiling my excitement Poisoning my breath Any second wasted It could be my last Falling into pieces You could make my day Dreams we dreamed together They say it's a mere But no no no no no I know, I know La la la la la it's love it's love But no no no no no I know, I know I don't think I'm wrong It's love Kissing all the angels Won't save me from hell I should keep my soul safe From this deadly flame Burning all my chances They say that it's pain Nothing but leftovers To persuade myself That no no no no no it's clear, I know La la la la la it's love it's love But no no no no no I know, I know I don't think I'm wrong It's love

Never Met 02:51
Love. Love is an angel it's ageless to human kind. Lust. An aspiration we crave for just by desire. Hanking for love We can't get this thing done It feel so alone I wish I could get close So open up that door This, this is the story Real story, as I can tell These, these are the moments dear lover, I've never met This, this is the pleasure the pressure, I have to bare To stay, stay with a lover my lover. I've never met Now, I'm rather doloeful, I'm lonesome, I'm getting gaunt Home, haunted by postcards. See your stamps,then your handwrite You're moving to south trying to make it through some how and other top-downs I'm so tired to read about Closing letters with "bye now".

Since the beginning of this travel had to knew It wasn't meant to last between myself and you Still I have tried to dream and sing a love so true Since you have poisoned me I hoped you had the cure It's cruel Now we can say goodbye And again Hiding my fears away 'Cause it's more than just a silly song to me But it goes empty like a winter puff to thee Stupid I couln't see Nothing can comfort me Nothing but tears Fifteen years leater by enormous chestnut trees All the foliage is red against the lawn's fresh green Here lies the man who fought for causes and lost quests Traveled the moon with rockets but for your request He's doomed Now you can say goodbye And a pray Sending your saints away You were more than just a pretty doll to him But you played and bode his body with a string Stupid he couldn't see Words could have set him free Now let him bleed Around the world in 80 days It took so long but here I lay With memories And dreams Goodbye

This album recordings started in the summer of 2010.
I can't remember when I met Sara Paster. I was always in love with her band "Fitness Forever", but the mystery stays. Where did I know her? It was two years ago. Was MySpace still in vogue? Anyway. First recall I have of this crazy thing was me coming back from IndieTrack Festival in UK, being so proud having received a message from Sara telling me she accepted to try and make some music with me. It was a magic summer. We weren't sure about the name of the project. We slided from "OISHII" (with all CAPITAL letters) to "Mr. Hearts Robot" and finally the genius pop name "Cherry Berry", even releasing a Christmas song called "Berry Christmas" on a Kingem Festive Compilation. One thing was sure: after having recjected tracks as the punky "Farmville Freaks" and the jazzed "Theme From Sushii the 3rd" we decided that the project would have focused on something between Sarah Records productions and Shibuiya-Kei, since me and Sara were both fond on Japan and latest indie pop vogues.

I was so bright and in love with the idea of writing him/Her pop music that I came with these odd couple love tunes:"Whishing on 10.00 Stars, Super Surprise, Final Fashion, Rebel Rebel Car, Present Present and the Japanese Ikanai De Ne. But above all the magical "Recording Sarah", a little tribute to Sarah Record and the track I think persuaded Sara to join the project.

Don't know what happened. Probably Sara had too many things on her agenda with her band on it's hype to keep on recoring these tracks. I had many other albums and projects to take care of too, so it took two years to go back to those songs and get them done, adding some other tracks form another Tiny Tide album left undone called "TENNET" ("A Date", "Sleepwalking" and "Lucy & Schroeder").

Getting back to these tracks was like travelling throught time.
