about

This song is not part of an album at the moment, it's a one-off nod to early 80's Icehouse.

lyrics

Sometimes you wonder what's going on
The spark has become a fire

All mixed up in a caldron of fear and desire

You don't wanna be like Juliet
caught up in a tragic play

Time to take the pen outta Will's hand and don't end it that way!

So, love may come in stages, your heart can tell
When the tears begin to swell
Oh, love may be contagious, well just beware
'Cause the cure can kill as well

You could live out on an island
whiling away the time
Or be another wayward mariner
just guided by starlight

You can look back through history
The subject of endless thought
But if it stumped Plato and Socrates then what chance have we got?

about

Robin Schell London, UK

Lying somewhere in the spacetime between AOR, Powerpop, 'art pop' (if there is such a thing), and prog rock from the 1970s and 80's. An artist heading toward an ever receding horizon, heeding the call now and then, for a life-affirming cup of coffee.

The day after tomorrow

Great work, John. In part two, I'm hearing strains of Bittersweet Symphony, I think? This is a masterpiece taken as a whole. That's a beautiful chord progression in part 4... no doubt who one of your heroes is - I dunno, it's all Greek to me, though part 8 is a bit of a clue, I guess! Mike Ashton

On The Bridge
by Beagley / Anania

supported by 4 fans who also own “Love May Be Contagious”

Love this album! 'Tis like art pop/rock with progressive roots. On The Bridge sends me with its stage/screen sound and soul searching lone piano and love how this piece is reflected again on Rescue. Overthinking feels like a prog classic doorway into the rest of the album. John's voice phenomenal has universal appeal. Love the atmospherics - ghostly, wild. Blown away by the Anania tribal like rhythms - and performance on The Battle. Can hear elements of Gabriel, Collins, Joe Jackson. Five stars! Alison Fleming

Rock Paper Scissors
by John Beagley

supported by 4 fans who also own “Love May Be Contagious”

From the glorious opening of the magical, ‘Maybe Something Out There’. Through the brand new tracks of ‘Rock Paper Scissors’. My fav’ piece from those, being Pt 5. Leading on to the both so beautiful, ‘Let There be Peace’ and ‘Angel’. A wonderful Journey of Sounds. Your music is a Joy, John. 🎶❤️🎶 Eddie Criglington

Don't believe the name of their latest album; jangle-pop hooks and stacked grunge guitars are two of the Bay Area band's greatest gifts. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2023
