Trying to knock out my melancholy mood. Jon Brion seems to be helping. Prepare for spam.

Jon Brion —— Ruin My Day 

Uses footage from the classic educational film “One Got Fat.” Best part is when the Tom Waits monkey dies. Fantastic song though.

Little Person - Jon Brion 

Not Jon singing, but this piece from the film Synecdoche, New York is fantastic. The mood and his lyrics just…wow.

I’m just a little person
One person in a sea
Of many little people
Who are not aware of me

I do my little job
And live my little life
Eat my little meals
Miss my little kid and wife

And somewhere, maybe someday
Maybe somewhere far away
I’ll find a second little person
Who will look at me and say

“I know you
You’re the one I’ve waited for
Let’s have some fun.”

Life is precious every minute
And more precious with you in it
So let’s have some fun

We’ll take a road trip way out west
You’re the one I like the best
I’m glad I’ve found you
Like hangin’ ‘round you
You’re the one I like the best

Somewhere, maybe someday
Maybe somewhere far away
Somewhere, maybe someday
Maybe somewhere far away
Somewhere, maybe someday
Maybe somewhere far away
I’ll meet a second little person 
And we’ll go out and play
