This film footage is something I lived! Yellowstone in the 60's. Talk about spooky. This song is all kinds of mysterious - the video adds yet another layer.
Absolutely! She's talked about her admiration for RT in recent interviews, and the solo on "No Thirds" definitely evokes his style. I hear Richard & Linda vibes in this song.
Great song. I'm very interested in this "no thirds" idea. I need to sit down at the piano and take a look. (I like to do that. I don't care if you think me a nerd) Anyways when I hear no 3rds I think no defined major or minor key and all the space that would leave Dr. Timmony from a melodic stand point. It's seems so simple yet so brilliant. I'm loving it just like I've loved it all since the first time I heard the song 'im gonna get you, I mean it" thanks for it all Mary.😊
This is fantastic! But I feel really dumb that I noticed all of the harmonies without thirds in them really early in the song, but didn't put that together with the title until the very end.
No Thirds Song by Mary Timony (2024) Check the situation. Is it cruel or is it kind? We wander in the desert, trying to find time The white flags above us, fly on our doubt Time to meet the mountain, there's no other way out Brand-new day, it still hurts like hell You said nothing, but there was nothing to tell Now the dead leaves are blowin,' around in my mind We only know this one life at a time We built this castle from sticks that we found An abandoned graveyard on sacred ground Then the cold moon was rising, but I didn't know There was a cross on your life-line, and you had somewhere to go So I'll travel on now, down the shifting road Nothing to stay for, so I'll stay no more Now I want to feel like I've never felt before The sun on my face, through an open door We're moving on now, never stayed too long Let the sunshine on everything that is wrong I still want to know what I've really never known We wandered through the garden, don't want to wander alone
