a fortune for the lady looks were on her side built like a hefner princess planted firmly in his mind the dirty streets of paris a portrait in black and white in the middle a dozen red roses pointing downward a spot of light fine wine and french cuisine couldn't stand to be alone when the molotov cocktail came ain't it strange that a man can love a woman who's worked all night ain't it strange that a man can love a woman who's worked all night with years i see things different the roses pour from their chest still the backdrops in black and white i think of them much less fine wine and french cuisine couldn't stand to be alone when the molotov cocktail came ain't it strange that a man can love a woman who's worked all night ain't it strange that a man can love a woman who's worked all night

about

"Peel my layers, fill my cracks, pay attention, what's in between? The healing can't start till after I bleed" - (Oh No Oh No).

These lyrics exemplify Bruised Orange's laid back and thought provoking approach to songwriting. This Moncton based blues / rock outfit is made up of close friends Steve Long, Roger Cormier and Larry Kelly. The trio relies on their instincts and life experiences to convey their musical message. Over time, their friendship has endured - they refuse to wait for storms to pass but rather choose to dance in the rain. This is honest, working class Americana. The music will strike a chord with anyone in the pursuit of peace, happiness and love.

"Bruised Orange - Testimony"... it's about life.
