“Sad Sometimes”
Third and last single “Sad Sometimes” is out and about! Full album coming out on September 30th!
https://fanlink.tv/SadSometimes
About the song:
“Sad Sometimes” starts off with a negative tone of dark thoughts and the pointlessness of everything, but quickly resolves with a slower, more positive ending. The second part of the song gradually emerges into a more comforting feeling that even though there are times when nothing makes sense, there are still many important little things that lift my spirit and happiness that I want to concentrate on more often.
Lyrics:
Sometimes I wanna kill myself
But someday I’m gonna die anyway
So why wouldn’t I just stay for a while
What the point of this
When nothing gonna be mine
What they screaming for
For me it’s only big lie
And then you showed me love
For us to just simply die
I’m just waiting on
Line
So I think to get comfort
Of the little things passing by
They can often bite your own soul
But at the end you’ll be fine
So I think to get comfort
Of the little things passing by
They can often bite your own soul
But at the end you’ll be fine
“Simple Boys”
Second single “Simple Boys” is out and about on all the major platforms: https://fanlink.tv/SimpleBoys
About the song:
This one is kind of funny take on immaturity of some man – not in a derogatory way. At the end of the day, all we ever need is love, even “Simple Boys”.
Lyrics:
Me and my buddies
Easy and baked
Going to party
Hope she’ll understand
When fight will brake
We will be first
We don’t know karate
But we know self defense
Decision was made
Now It’s to late
We gonna stay home
And master the bait
Don’t be mad
Don’t close the doors
We are just simple boys that need love
Don’t be mad
Don’t close the doors
We are just simple boys that need love
“My Sweetest Tone”
New single “My Sweetest Tone” out now! 
https://fanlink.tv/MST
About the song:
As an uneducated immigrant who came to this country with no money or knowledge of English in my teenage years, the US quickly showed me where my place is. The verses represent this sort of way of being mistreated and the chorus describes that no matter what life throws at me, I’ll always stand my ground and “carry on with my sweetest tone”.
“Dear Peri”
‘Dear Peri’ was inspired by a tragic incident that happened last January, where two climbers tried to reach the summit of Nanga Parbat known as “Killer Mountain”. One of the climbers was a French woman named Elisabeth Revolwent and the other was a Polish man name Tomasz Mackiewicz. Mackiewicz had loved that mountain and became passionate about climbing after beating a heroin addiction. In an interview, he described a legend told by locals about the ghost of a woman named Peri who protects the mountain and could help or harm you. After reaching the summit of ‘Killer Mountain’, Revolwent had to leave Mackiewicz in a safe place because of his bad condition and loss of his vision. She gave Tomasz some blankets to keep him warm and said that the rescue team would come back for him. Unfortunately the snowstorm was too strong and they weren’t able to reach him.
Tom Gluewicki of Tender Glue had found out about the story couple weeks after it happened and made him think about how it must be dying alone this way. The song is his interpretation of Mackiewicz’s letter to his beloved mountain and Peri as he slowly departed from his body. People called Mackiewicz a fool for risking his life, which is where the lyrics “Don’t call me fool” came from. His body hasn’t been found till this day, but it was assumed that he died shortly after, due to extreme weather conditions.
Lyrics:
Don’t want to wake up darling
From your fateful dream
But your cold blooded kisses
Slowly drowning me
You wear what you want
You do as you please
Don’t call me fool
Don’t call me fool
Just me and you
Bright pale face
Your beauty will always be
With a white coat
Laying over me
You wear what you want
You do as you please
Don’t call me fool
Don’t call me fool
Don’t call me fool
Don’t call me fool
Just me and you
Just me and you
You wear what you want
You do as you please
“Rudy” Official Music Video
“Rudy” and three other singles from upcoming album called “Closet Leftovers” are now available to listen and download on all major stores!! –> http://hyperurl.co/RudySingle
“Rudy” was written about 6 years ago and was inspired by a girl I met once. I had chords and a melody written beforehand and the words came quickly to me. This girl had shown me how she rolls her cigarettes, which was inspiration for the lyrics “And if I go ; Roll one for me; Cigarettes you used to smoke; Hope you will quit”. Although some of the lyrics were based on real scenarios, the whole idea of the song is more of an imagination. I took some of the details of this brief non-intimate meeting and created a story. –> Press Release
Lyrics:
Oh Rudy in your eyes
Oh Rudy in your heart
Oh Rudy in you mind
Stay always on my side
And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit
Oh Rudy talk to me
With your fluent Japanese
Oh Rudy in your mind
Stay always on my side
And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit
Fourth and final single “Lights Out”
Over the course of the year, singer-songwriter Tender Glue has released 3 singles leading up to the “Closet Leftovers” album release and is now set to release the fourth and final single “Lights Out” on Friday 1st June. —-> http://smarturl.it/LightsOut-Single
During the writing process of this last single “Lights Out”, Tom explains how he was strumming the same unusual chords pattern that he had already used for 2 other songs. He then started singing, “Yes I know, it may sound the same, but each of one is different face”, as he realized the song had the same sound but was written at a different time. This single, as Tom describes, ended up being about a recollection of past days and experiencing life together until our lights go out. Along with his other songs, this track was recorded in the closet of Tom’s studio apartment, concluding the last of the four singles released from the album. Press Release
Lyrics:
Remember how
We used to jump the shades
Such a joy
In the gravity play
Yes I know
It may sound the same
But each of one
Is different face
On the mountain top
Cause you know the place
I’ll meet you up
But we can rearrange
Yes I know
It may sound the same
But each of one
Is different face
Lights out may help
Cause lights out are the best
With you

Five minutes before going to work, I started playing my guitar and wrote down the lyrics, not really thinking about anything (I ended up almost late to work that day). Later on I realized that the part of the lyrics when I say “I’m so slow, I can barely see”, had to do with the time I lost partial vision for a moment, probably due to an unhealthy lifestyle. At that time in my life, I wanted to get healthier, so for me it’s about that. During the recording process, I sat down in my closet/recording studio, and started with vocals and guitar in the same take. Then I added the second guitar, drums, and bass. The whole process took a few days because I was only able to mix part of it when I had the time. Usually it was late, after work around 3am. –> Press Release
Lyrics:
Come walk to me
I’m so slow I can barely see
With you here
Feels like I’m in conscious dream
So stay with me
I’m ok I’ll always be
With you here
Feels like I’m in conscious dream
With you here
