My kids did a slide show at my 50th b-day party this year. I insisted on only one thing — that they include this song in the soundtrack. Afterwards, people asked, "What was that song?", describing it as catchy, happy, etc. So it was fun to tell them all about sigmon and RP. Keep up the good work, sigmon! |
| cyzik | Posted: May 06, 2008 - 07:43 Sounds like the ProTools Tutorial Song. This is not a good thing. |

 I like it ... it's a good image.  The day after yesterday I woke up in today I feel so far away When I'm on the edge The letter will not be read Leave it lying on my bed There's nothing need be said When you're on the edge Now it's time to let all of it go Move into the world of what I don't know I'm dancing with my suitcase A different sun shines on my face I'll blow a kiss to this old place It's leaving day Now it's time to let all of it go Move into the world of what I don't know I'm dancing with my suitcase A different sun shines on my face I'll blow a kiss to this old place It's leaving day When tomorrow comes to stay We won't know what to say Was it real or only play Stepping off the edge And to Jelani- sorry about the immaturity. I was born that way. Cheers! Matt |

| paradox | Posted: Feb 06, 2008 - 18:41 Love this song, great stuff. Bought the album, eclectic with a lot of catchy tunes. |
| Jelani (Home of the freak, land of the vague) | Posted: Jan 06, 2008 - 07:42 OH , now that's just the most juvenile opening line I've ever heard in a song. Is that supposed to be cool or tricky? Ooooooh.... |
| sfearll (Monrovia, CA) | Posted: Dec 21, 2007 - 10:55 this one always grabs my attention... thanks for playing it, I'm gonna have to check out more Sigmon. |
| GSquared (Benicia, CA) | Posted: Nov 17, 2007 - 13:46 I just listened to 4 songs off this album on CD baby. I am going to buy it. Thanks, I didn't know Sigmon. |

I'd have to listen to this a lot then to accept that it is outstanding, unless you meant to suggest it was outstanding in its blandness |
| Pyro | Posted: Sep 13, 2007 - 12:56 It got my attention enough to come across the room to check it out. Not bad! |

| Misterfixit (Nashville) | Posted: Sep 02, 2007 - 16:42 Outstanding work. This grows on you each time it is played. I bought the CD and listened to it between Nashville and Memphis one evening ... over and over again ... Took me to the Edge and back..... Great stuff. Hurry up and get booked at Third and Lindsley .... |
| nigelr (Coffs Harbour, Australia) | Posted: Aug 17, 2007 - 20:40 Very nice indeed, I am liking this band more and more. Nice to hear something a little different. |

| renlat (Montreal, Canada) | Posted: Jun 19, 2007 - 07:05 Sounds like Paul McCartney and Wings, back to Red Rose Speedway days, but not bad anyway. |

| v73c (Portland, OR) | Posted: Jun 08, 2007 - 12:22 Still one of my favorite RP songs. Having 'met' Sigmon through mutual podcasting, it is cool to hear his music just show up in the playlist here. Nice guy. Great artist. Cheers! |

| Alifreckles50 (Frederick, MD) | Posted: May 23, 2007 - 16:38 yea, I'm liking this one alot right now....still think the cover is kinda weird, tho... |

| MinMan (Bay Area, CA) | Posted: Apr 03, 2007 - 23:38 Oooh... spooky - he talks back - Hey guys, come look at this - the artist is writing back .... never mind. I was hoping to come up with something profound in the vein of life imitates artist... Regardless - Great tune Sigmon: sort of Lenon meets the new century without all the old baggage. |

The artwork is very cool. Love the mirrored clouds with the intersecting line being between the hole in his middle. And the cartoon cutout through his flesh is very abstract. The mirrored clouds pushes the mind to think his body is mirrored (which the human form basically is) but there the subtle differences in human form from left to right side brings the mind back. And the music is pretty good as well. Lot's of other musical styles while still defining (or refining) his own. Nice!  |

The vocals sound very CSN(Y) to me. |
| meydele (By the sea) | Posted: Mar 01, 2007 - 13:34 I bumped him up a point for again making me think of Squeeze. Excellent power pop. |
| camarkim (blogspot.com) | Posted: Feb 23, 2007 - 15:20 I was hearing Crowded House too. |
| davin (Victoria, British Columbia) | Posted: Feb 23, 2007 - 15:19 This is really quite good. |
| Walrus_Gumbo | Posted: Feb 21, 2007 - 09:14 Just bought the CD. Great stuff!!  Every song has wonderful hooks. Shades of Beatles, Badfinger, Raspberries, Todd Rundgren, etc. It will grab you with each repeated listening. Very talented man, he plays all the instruments himself, don't know how he would pull this off in concert though? |
| KevinM (Long Beach, Ca) | Posted: Feb 21, 2007 - 09:09 Like the song - can do without the weird cover art. |
