Strange music for strange people.
Dollar Bill and The Unmentionables has been recording slightly silly music since 1989. In 2010 we started making videos to stare at while the song plays. Genre: varies, sometimes within the same song even. Be sure to check out the video page, as many of the songs have super high-budget (i.e. $0) music videos

Story behind the song
This is one of two songs that lead to the formation of Relative Rabbit. An idea that Matt helped greatly to flesh out, aided by the arrival of a fretless guitar. No amps (virtual or real), distortion, or feedback were used - all the guitars were plugged straight in to the computer preamp with just delays & reverbs added to the raw signal.
Lyrics
A coral color sun Samarkand can save her Lucky seven soul The one He left inside Centuries of Heaven never snow In a lazy, leaden sky With a coral color sun She's a chance event Another scent, another hue She's an ornament She's an oriental china blue The lady lately leaves lots of lonely lads looking for love Living lightly still only will ever lead lower and Likely loom larger than lies She's a tiger eye A dragonfly in camisole Easy on the eye Letting out a sigh, Is china doll Samarkand can save her And we all thank God forgotten With a coral color sun

Wow, this is very magic. You feel that there is so much happening in the slow flow. Beautiful sounds and magic vocals. I think I have to listen some more times trying to get it. Do I have to get it? And I'll look to the lyrics. This one is special for sure, a wonderful collab gentlemen!

So beautiful and moving! This is music at it's very best, when it gives you a lump in your throat because you feel happy and sad at the same time. I really love this piece, it is so captivating and wonderfully floating along like a boat on a river sailing into the sunset. Amazing and in a class of it's own!

Wonderful collab here gents. Awesome mixing and production..great dynamics on the instrumentation. Very "Beatlesque" vox which were really well done. Good phrasing on the excellent lyrics. Loved the "L" verse. Great idea. Overall, a really well done song. Bravo!

Hi Bill, This is brilliant. And with Matt involved no surprise there. Great collab. Production is fantastic. Such a large sound. Beautiful. And I never had the pleasure of collabing with Matt he recorded a version of my song called All the kings Horses and all the kings men. Both versions on my page and I am quite honored and love Matts rendition.

Stunningly good! The music, vocals and lyrics blend perfectly to create a very atmospheric, haunting and enticing vibe. I could mention so many things, but suffice to say this song is perfect in every way.
