Imperial Drag - Please Leave Me Home For Christmas
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 13 lety
"Please Leave Me Home For Christmas", demo from Imperial Drag, mid-90s rock band featuring Eric Dover (Sextus, Alice Cooper, Jellyfish) and Roger Joseph Manning Jr. (Jellyfish, Beck, Moog Cookbook). Great tune with some funny lyrics. Sorry about the bad quality of the slideshow, I didn't pay too much attention to the pictures (plus it's my first one), I really just wanted to get the song up here.
Definitely one of my favorite Andy vocals. So good.
In my head I could always hear Glenn Frey singing this.. of course after18th January 2016 it couldn't ever happen for real. Still everytime I play this song I can hear Glenn. Come on Mr Sturmer release some more songs. Love ❤ it.
Love it. A classic that I'd never head until today. The note/chord selections, the production mix, the vocals, ALL so killer.
OMG, A Christmas Song lol I'm not tired of. Love It ✌️💞🎄🙏
I remember reading that Andy came to Roger after their 2nd album with a song that had a country flavor that Roger didn't care for. I wonder if this might be it.
Nope. This was written specifically for Andy’s first solo album in 1999. He finished the album but disputes between him and Columbia records who he recorded it for kept the album from seeing the light of day
@@taylorh4480 What a shame. All these years later I'd still love to hear it.
Thank you so much for sharing this with any other Jellyfish fans who wanted to hear Mr. Sturmer's voice again (we do!!). Just finding this now and the demo songs from user Karamiehorse - even though they've been posted for years. What a voice: what a talent.
Anyone get the lyrics?
Very cool song!!
Great song
This guy needs to make more music
he writes songs for children shows now.
Genius .....they come once in a lifetime 🍷🍷🍷
Excelente. Admirable. Hermoso
Fu*king fantastic X-mas song!
Great talent
Did they ever write a bad song? Ever? 2018 and it's still better than everything else on the "charts"...
Nope.
Amazing song.
great arrangement. Not everyone can be gentle and soulful. Andy can.
Such a talent, miss the albums Jellyfish should have made over these barren years. For the love of music he just needs to release music in a low key fashion on some small independent label. He should share his gift
Beautiful
Thanks for this. I will never, ever, get enough of this voice. God, I hope his house is made of gold bricks. <3 Such talent.
I listen to this around Christmas multiple times, cause it's a classic imo. Plus I like the unconventional Christmas songs more so than the ones constantly played on the radio.
<3
this track has a bit of a T.Rex vibe
imperial drag should reunite
This is one of the best love songs of all time.
I have quite a few of Andy's demos and every time I play them I think, what a waste of incredibel talent!
I would like to get my hands on all those demos... Any help?
Great stuff, thanks for uploading it.
NEVER HEARD THIS!!!
If they got back together it would have to be with the original line up: Roger Manning Chris Manning Jason Falkner
Read a Brighter Day - A Jellyfish Story. Jellyfish will never be again... too many bad feelings among the members. The talent is incredible, but the personalities just don't work...
Jason Falkner is the equal to those 2 .....he would have to have equal air time on the record.....3 creatives like that must be hard to get along ...being in bands is like a democracy ...till the stronger personalities emerge ..
And don’t forget Tim Smith!
Roger Manning needs to put out another album ASAP
Meanwhile you can follow Jason Falkner's Career, Manning's Career and all the related projects. I recommend TV Eyes, Logan's Sanctuary and both their solo efforts.
These guys were so awesome! Why are they no more? : (
2013 and still no new Jellyfish.. Andy still has a great voice and Roger is more talented than ever... Such a shame. The world needs more Jellyfish music.
but the vocal and rhythmic prowess Sturmer brings to the table, along with his writing sensibilities, would flesh the music out to be worthy of Jellyfish at their finest - of that I have zero doubt.
It almost hurts to hear Roger Joseph Manning's solo material, because it is so damn good... but it could be "made whole" in collaboration with Andy Sturmer... just like you can hear Jellyfish in the rare Sturmer tracks, you can ABSOLUTELY hear it in Manning's solo stuff - he bleeds it, like an endless, bottomless pit of sheer melodic pop inspiration...
Even if they just got together for the damn money - that'd be FINE - just do it!
Best Christmas Song Ever.
What a crime we haven't had Andy contributing to the world of popular music since Jellyfish. Damn, I miss that voice and that musical mind.
I heard the Winnie the Pooh song. It was good as usual, I bought it A family man is admirable, nothing better. I am one too. Maybe his kids will release the music for the world to enjoy someday far into the distant future. Geez, think he would release something just to see a reaction Fans have only been waiting 20 years guess we can wait some more sigh. Please, Andy if you happen to read this.. don't go country. Your catchy, fun pop tunes or ballads are simply amazing. But, I would still buy it!
Years ago I emailed Bruce Brodeen at Not Lame (RIP) and asked if he knew what Andy was up to. He said he spoke to Andy's mom and she told him that Andy had 2 or 3 albums worth of recorded material that he shelved and was uncertain if it would ever see the light of day. He also told me Andy works for Disney and prefers the quiet life and enjoys being a family man. Incidentally, back around 1996, I read an interview where Andy said if he released a solo album, it would be of country music.
That makes sense as Roger said when they started writing for the follow up to Spilt Milk, Andy brought him a country song. Roger said he started crying because he knew that was the end of the band.
"If I'm your Adam, you're naive" (I write just like this... right before I wake from my dream)
I thought it was "If I'm your Adam, you're not Eve" Like Adam and Eve
I think that’s the genius of the line... totally playing on you’re my eve.
Killer chorus
IF - you guys get back together ...i would suggest canning the sacharine sweetness ...not that that was not enjoyable ..but that was then ...make it like this !!!
Nice!
We had this as our first dance at our wedding and it was just amazing! A beautiful song for a bautiful day. It should be properly released.
Time for Andy to show his talent again. It's ridiculous that he is moonlighting doing children's music
Please.... do a Jellyfish reunion for god's sakes.. It's 2011 and overdue!
My "10 year check-in"... Still no Jellyfish reunion. :( Don't make me say the same thing in 2031...!
Drives me freaking crazy... why doesnt this guy release something! He is so good. I know he still does music but who is keeping him locked up? Would love to hear more from you Andy. Cool voice.
I feel the exact same and it’s 9 years later...and still no Andy!
Andy has suffered from mental illness since his early 20s. He pretty much stays locked in his house in Santa Barbara and doesn’t leave. He has a full production recording studio there and he makes all of his music that he does for Japan and for TV series in cartoons right there in his house and he has everything he needs brought to him
When was this recorded? Where did you find it? Thanks for posting!
