PLEASE NOTE: gotta explain this BEFORE you listen. Normally, this song would never have made it onto this site because of the very poor recording quality. There are MANY more Peter Cross songs that are not on this site because the recordings were not good enough. This one is up here for Tim McDonald. It was his band playing all the tracks. Ginny, the female drummer, was the mutual friend who brought Peter and Tim together. Ginny died of cancer. There were two guitar players in Tim's band. The other guitar player, Chris, is also dead. The Charles Biscuit Band is dead. But Timmy is alive, and this one is for him, Ginny, Chris, and the rest. Mysteries are what you give me when you're playing with me though you're feeling right Sadness is a world I live in every time I give in or should choose to fight I can give you something no one else can give you Why oh why'd you treat me like a shoe? Your mysteries old and new Mysteries are what you make it, every time you ache it kills my empty heart Anger is your thunder, better off a hundred thousand miles should keep us apart I can give you something no one else can give you Why oh why'd you treat me like a shoe? Your mysteries old and new You treat me like you do I've given it all to you Mysteries, Mysteries, Mysteries Why oh why'd you treat me like you do? Your mysteries old and new You treat me like a fool, I know just what you're doing Treat me like a schoolboy, I wish you'd stop that screwing around with me You won't let me be You're a mystery |
Credits: Vocals: Peter Cross Basic tracks: The Charles Biscuit Band Guitars: Timmy and Chris Recording: Don Digeralamo at The Record Plant in Sausalito Final Mix: Don Digeralamo Commentary: Not much to be said here, because the important stuff got said at the top of this page. All you need to know is that the really good guitar playing on Mysteries is Timmy (i.e. the instrumental break in the middle), and all the average guitar playing is Chris. Sorry Chris. Timmy's talent is too obvious. And Timmy is still living. That means there is still a possibility that he will record with Peter again. Someday. |
