    Here's my song "The Jellyfish Song".

    You can thank me later for adding this special piece of knowledge to your life.

    It's just the musicified expression of the pain in my soul, coupled with pristine recording conditions, a lovely guitar hand, and a voice that hits every note.

    Every note and then some. I think you invented a few there.

    I touched a jelly fish
    And it stung me
    And it hurt so bad
    Yeah

    With those 4 simple lines, young Watermark started a neo-barbarism revival of music that would forever change the world.


    That's what the high class magazines will be saying in 2040.

    I was actually attempting to do something on the existential level of Nico's "These Days" (written by Jackson Browne). Fortunately, I quite exceeded that goal.

    You rock, H2O... That will definitely set the stage for the next music revival.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    This could be the greatest breakthrough act to come out of America in the last thirty years.

    Like a master blacksmith of the soul the artist forges a potent weapon of verse, carefully crafting an awe inspiring emotional sabre of stunning beauty from the white hot subject matter, skillfully combining the sturdy anvil of invention with his formidable hammer of emotion.

    If one were to toss a shovel into the passenger seat of the dried out white Rolls Royce which Keith Moon drove into a swimming pool, drive to Memphis, disinter the very body of Elvis Aaron Presleys, remove a functional sample of genetic material, get back into your car, clone that genetic sample, drive to the 'Motor City' of Detroit in the state of Michigan, impregnate the 65 year-old Aretha Franklin with the cloned embryo, wait nine months for the resulting child to emerge before gazing upon it's majesty, even that miracle child would not be blessed with the musical heritage of the artist we know as 'Watermark'.

    Behold the musical Messiah, the melodic Mahdi, the Ganesh of groove.

    It tells a compelling story and offers only just enough of the story to leave the listener pondering the greater dilemmas of the day. Yes a jelly fish can sting but just how vulnerable are you to its sting? How far into the waters to you dare before you taunt the jellyfish. It is a metaphor for mans entire exsistance. Do you skirt the waters edge ,wade or seek the thrill of the breaking waves which the jelly fish also ride.

    Watermark is more than just a musical genious he is the new Poet of our generation our pied piper with a two stringed guitar and a voice unwilling to be constrained by pitch.

    You forget the final, most important question. Is the jellyfish gay? How must we react to such knowledge? Must we accept, or divide? Are we comfortable enough with our own sexual identity to be stung be a gay jellyfish?
