Only time will tell
look at me look, I'm dancing
She's seen it all before
and just enough, could turn her on
Won't be the first time.
Won't be the last time,
I'd save myself if you wanted me to
if saving myself could get to you
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
close enough
to kiss and tell.
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
no...
you wear it well
After all she'd been through
she still believed and sang the truth
of righteousness through suffering
with beauty college cool
Won't be the first time.
Won't be the last time,
I'd save myself if you wanted me to
if saving myself could get to you
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
close enough
to kiss and tell.
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
no...
you wear it well
After all she'd been through
she still believed and sang the truth
of righteousness through suffering
with beauty college cool
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
close enough
to kiss and tell.
Just a tiny
Human Drama,
no...
you wear it well
After all she'd been through

She's seen it all before
and just enough, could turn her on

Won't be the last time,
I'd save myself if you wanted me to

Just a tiny

to kiss and tell.

This song has been around awhile and I've played it with a number of bands over the years.
I would have to say it is one of my favourites and pretty much has been since the day I wrote it. But in the hands of this band and this producer? It has found a new voice, one that I am thrilled with.
So what is it about? Well it is literally one of those "cocktail napkin" tunes, scribbled out on a freezing and snow bound New Year's Eve at a great Toronto bar, the Pilot Tavern.
I was ringing in the New Year there with friends and in fact had as many friends working there as I did on the fun side of the bar. Immobilized though with a mother of a cast, courtesy of a recent knee surgery, I was taking in the sights more than making them.
And the image that caught my attention? It was that of a very hard working waitress, struggling with the insanity of the evening's demands, who never the less, kept her cool and good humour with a grace, dignity and ultimately beauty that was hard not to be fascinated by.
And because I actually knew her and her life story quite well, this lyric jumped from pen to napkin over the course of the balance of the evening, the melody waiting to be born back home once deposited there by an equally hard working and harried cabbie. He actually stopped for me on the street unhailed as he had noticed me meandering down Bloor Street on crutches; negotiating the growing snow banks with little success in the dawning hours of a new decade. That kindness? Yet another example that the observation of a "tiny human drama" can drive someone to action.

This band of musicians turned marketers/gov't officials and studio rats came together accidentally, three of them being neighbours in North Toronto.
Quickly discovering that between them they had a full set of original material, Truth Panel has been in rehearsal and in the studio for just over a year now, working out of Toronto sound design/audio production boutique, boom sonic branding where Bill and Dave craft audio solutions/underscores for a range of broadcast and new media clients.
Truth Panel will be releasing their debut release entitled Preliminary Hearing via iTunes in 2010.
In the interim, completed tracks will find their way to their building community of friends and fans both here on Music XRay and on the Truth Panel Virb site. An interesting world this where both audience and content can be developed concurrently.
