“Perfect Boy” Lyrics

“Perfect Boy” Bitstream Dream Connected (2003)  Love Me Leave Me LP (2013)

Angelic in statureAB-LMLM-Cover
Graceful and thin
Raven black hair
Pale silken skin
Serious brow
Classic strong chin
Twinkling eyes
And a childlike grin

The most perfect boy (x4)

See you in cafes
Out on the street
See you in clubs
In the smoky heat
I get so upset
I look at my feet
I know deep inside
One day we’ll meet

The most perfect boy (x4)

I found out your name
And your number, too
But now that I know
What am I gonna do
Give you a call saying
“Hi guess who
And oh, by the way
I think that I love you”

The most perfect boy (x4)

There he is now, he’s coming my way.
Oh god, what am I gonna say?

Angelic in stature
Graceful and thin
Raven black hair
Pale silken skin
Serious brow
Classic strong chin
Twinkling eyes
And a childlike grin

The most perfect boy (x6)


Note: This lyric was originally written in mid-1994, though I don’t recall recording it until the Bitstream Dream song was created in 2000 and released online as a single. A totally different version with a new arrangement of the same vocal files was created by Chukimai in 2001, called the “Plastic Chair Mix.” Bitstream Dream released their version on a short-run CD called “Connected” in 2003. The Chukimai mix was only released in mp3 format. The version that appears on Anji’s ‘Love Me Leave Me’ album is an all-new recording with additional vocal harmonies and new main melodies for some portions.

 

“Perfect Boy (Plastic Chair Mix)” single (2001)

“Who’s that over there? I think I’ve seen him before…”

Angelic in stature
Graceful and thin
Raven black hair
Pale silken skin
Serious brow
Classic strong chin
Twinkling eyes
And a childlike grin

The most perfect boy (x8)

“Who’s that over there? I think I’ve seen him before.
His face looks familiar somehow…
There he is now, he’s coming my way.
Oh god, what am I gonna say?”

I found out your name
And your number, too
But now that I know
What am I gonna do
Give you a call saying
“Hi guess who
And oh, by the way
I think that I love you”

The most perfect boy (x4)

“Who’s that over there? I think I’ve seen him before…”

Chillcast #214: Eastern World

Get ready to chillout to one hour of Eastern World influenced and/or created electronica music. This set is chock full of mysterious vocals, soothing flutes, intricate percussion, tinkling cymbals plus plenty of groovy beats and sultry rhythms. I say “Eastern World” because its a mix of Far and Middle East music influences in this set. Of course there are copious Western influences, as well. There’s 5 free downloads this week, care of Promonet, so be sure to check those out!

Chillcast Podcast & Vidcasts on Boxee

Both The Chillcast and Chillcast Video are now available on the Boxee Beta via a Mevio Network app. Boxee is a free cross-platform home theater program designed to organize and play all manner of media, from streaming online video and audio, to audio, video, and photos from your own hard drive, on either your computer or television. It also integrates social network aspects, so you can rate and recommend content to your friends.

Having only briefly checked it out, I can see some similarities to Hulu, Roku, and Miro (which also includes Chillcast Video). It looks like there is promise as an elegant solution to the ever-growing problem of collecting all your content in one place with easy-to-use functionality. I’m particularly excited at the prospect of using the Boxee Remote iPhone app to control my streaming Netflix content.

Chillcast #213: Sweet Vox

With the ominous sound of raging winds outside my studio window, I put together a set of sweet, sweet vocal tunes to soothe the soul and bring peace to my agitated mind. And lucky you, you get to experience this bliss, as well! In classic Chillcast form, we start out with laidback chillout in the first half and slowly work our way up to smooth minimal tech house and close it out with my two favorite Göteborg vocalists. Lots of great free downloads this week, so grab ’em while they’re hot!

Chillcast Video #39: Waveplant & Ernesto

At long last, I present another video edition of The Chillcast! I originally recorded an intro and outro in late March, but had some tech trouble with the video. With all that hammered out, please enjoy this very cool and colorful video released last year by Exceptional Records for a super catchy collaboration between Chicago’s Waveplant and Gothenburg’s Ernesto. This is the original mix of “(I Need A) Bassline” available on the Waveplant & Ernesto “(I Need A) Bassline EP” on  iTunes Special thanks to Bob at Exceptional for sending me the video! For more great tunes,  listen to my Chillcast Exceptional Spotlight podcast from April 2007.

Chillcast #211: New Mic

I really love the mix of moods and musical styles on this week’s episode! There’s a little bit of everything in this one hour set, but it all flows so sweetly from song to song. I just love the challenge of mixing genres on The Chillcast, you know? Come to think of it, its great vocals – both female and male – that hold a lot of it together, and there are some real doozies in here. To top it all off, over half of the songs are FREE downloads – w00t! Don’t forget to come join The Chillcast on Facebook Group.

Chillcast #210: More Mellow

Today’s set underwent a few changes before going into production. While the original mix was quite good, I felt like making it more mellow once I sat down to record. After a long day and a busy week, I was eager to chillax big time. And this set really hits the spot! So get set to chill out to an hour of new tunes in a variety of styles from artists both new and old to The Chillcast. Oh hey, sorry but the Deva Premal song is no longer available for free download from Promonet…

Chillcast #209: Motherlode

Its an embarrassment of riches over here at Chillcast studio, as I’ve totally hit a motherlode of great new music! I absolutely can not get enough of the new Ernesto/Motorcitysoul EP, but then again, I can never get enough Ernesto in general. LOL! I introduce a bunch of new bands to the show this week, so you’re sure to discover something you love. I can’t quite pin down the overall sound of the mix; genres these days are so splintered and complex I don’t even know what I’m playing half the time! But you’ll recognize the feel – a little deep, a little downtempo, a little dub – some with vox, and some instrumental. Its a sophisticated set designed to engage the brain as much as the body. Enjoy!
