BRIAN RAINSTORM'S SONG LYRIC BOOK (130 SONGS)

Nothing But trouble
You can go and pop your pills
Or you can go and lick your dollar bills
Something you know you shouldn't do
Either way trouble will come follow you

Yearbook spread headed 'SENIOR PROM' and 'I Will Remember You...' with black-and-white candid photos of prom-goers dancing, embracing, and posing. Caption text: 'Senior Week culminated in a whirlwind of gowns, tuxes, and dancing as the Class of 1996 gathered together for the legendary senior prom. On the night of June 13, limousines streamed into the driveway at the Marriot Long Wharf hotel in Boston Harbor. Where couples were greeted by awaiting faculty members. The arrangements embodied perfection, right down to the glistening ice sculpture key chain (Special thank you to President Mrs. O'Shaughnessy for a truly magical evening) While the night has faded in the excitement of summer, and only the pictures remain, each and every senior will forever know in his heart that "I Will Remember You."' / Secondary caption: 'Left to right, from right: Twiggs known he is the floating kid on the floor, but looks for David and Rob anyway; Emmett S., Richie V., Dave A., Boolean any way, sans jackets; Kelly P. and Rob C. other and the final night for the senior class; Burnsy planning out the prom supplement; Tom J. vogueing for the camera; enjoying the evening.' Separate loose color photo: a formal prom couple (man in dark tuxedo, woman in tan/gold gown) posed under a floral wooden arch.

I am really good at three things in this world. One of them is writing lyrics for songs with the occasional poem tossed in every so often for style points. There's five spoofs at the end, too! About This: I've been writing poems and song lyrics for over twenty years. In 2007 I put a bunch of my poems onto YouTube videos and asked musicians to turn them into songs. Many of them did. Fast forward 13 years and I have collected up all the best things I've written and arranged them in order from MY BEST ones to ones that aren't quite as good. I ranked all my babies so you can just start reading the best stuff right away. Stop reading them anymore, no problem... See how far ya get! I'm opening ALL my lyrics up to musicians again.

Page 3: 'BASES - the most useful statistic in baseball by Brian Rainstorm 12/21/2014. It started simply enough: From 1980 to 2010 there were about fifteen first base/designated hitter types who were all somewhat comparable and I was trying to figure out who was worthy of the hall of fame... I would study the stats of all the players of all the teams and also the Red Sox minor league player stats. I knew trading Jeff Bagwell for Larry Anderson was a mistake because I knew Bagwell was hitting .390 in the minors... OF Bobby Abreu was a GREAT offensive player. Same with David Wright, Jose Reyes, Tim Raines, Brian Giles, Shin-Soo Choo and Larry Walker were some of my favorite players... Raul Mondesi, too... a prime year for a Rickey Henderson-type player or a prime year from a slugger like Mark McGwire...' Page 4: formula explanation: 'Singles + Doubles + Triples + Home Runs + Walks + Stolen Bases = BASES (doubles count as 2, triples as 3, home runs as 4 and the rest as 1)' with worked example (20 steals, 80 walks, 25 homeruns, 30 doubles, 5 triples, 130 singles = 405 BASES, divided by 4 = 101.25 projected runs, times 9 batters / 162 games = 5.625 runs per game average). Page 5: formula extended to pitchers using WHIP, with Mariano Rivera example (career WHIP 1.000, ERA 2.21). Closing page (green, unnumbered): 'All you really need is one number to compare a baseball player's offensive worth to his team and I have it... I have 100 years of Major League players sorted by position, alphabetically and also numerically by this statistic. Buy this book and look up your favorite players from history and today. Bonus: You don't have to be a rocket scientist to create this statistic once you know the formula it's easy to tally up yourself.' Interior index page 64 lists player BASES totals with career years, e.g. 'Lloyd Waner 287 OF 1927-1945, Paul Waner 361 OF 1926-1945, Vernon Wells 340 OF 1999-2013, Jason Werth 353 OF 2002-, Zack Wheat 334 OF 1909-1927, Lou Whitaker 338 2B 1977-1995, Frank White 251 2B 1973-1990, Maury Wills 305 SS 1959-1972, Bernie Williams 387 OF 1991-2006, Billy Williams 373 OF 1959-1976, Matt Williams 343 3B 1987-2003, Ted Williams 490 OF 1939-1960, Hack Wilson 399 OF 1923-1934, Willie Wilson 300 OF 1976-1994, Dave Winfield 362 OF 1973-1995, David Wright 401 3B 2004-...

POEMS BY TOM is a collection of 130 poems meant to be read in order just like a novel. This book is a blend of song-based poems, commentary, supporting information and famous (and some not-so-famous) quotes all meant to enlighten the average reader. Ultimately, this is a book of poetry for those people who do not traditionally enjoy books of poetry. Okay, here's the deal: I always wanted to be a rock star but I can't sing. Over the last ten years I have developed my talent for writing song lyrics but they're not really commercial because I try to use my writing skills to free people's minds - not brainwash them into buying some silly crap that they don't need. Mostly everything inside of these pages is here to get people to start thinking about the world we live in and how we can make it better. These poems and commentary that I tell my life story - making sure to point out exactly where I did good and, conversely, just where I made a few mistakes along the way. I write about everything from being in love to September 11th to bottling drugs and alcohol. I have poems about politics, racism [and] a quick... give... life on..." Intro page 2: "...I am a college graduate with a very unique... Some of the things that I say or write you will [not necessarily] agree with me on and some of the other things you will make... you want to ring my neck but I can promise... make you think. Oh yeah, you may... he's such a great writer then why didn't... name for his book? My answer is because... 800 poems in my life (all with titles) I told myself that's... enough already - I'm finished with titles for awhile." (portions obscured by fingers/glare in photo).

(2) Printed compilation titled "Quotes about Songs" (from YouTube commenters, feeding into readtom.com channels LYRICALBRILLIANCE/tubesbestmusic), including: Joanne Joyce - about STARS: "I didn't realize I was missing out on a lot of great music by listening only to commercially recorded music." LeonardoHakaisha - about WE ARE THE ONES: "Why hasn't anyone commented on this? This is a seriously a treasure. The lyrics are real. I love it. I'm so tired of hearing the trash that people listen to nowadays, and this song reminds me of those times where Bob Dylan was the voice of reason, and all that he sang was for the people. It seems like things are falling down all around us, and people aren't even paying attention. This song really speaks to me, and I hope it gets to be heard by others. Stay strong, and thanks." Sur Rod - about MATCH MAKER: "Hard to find genuine songs like this on YT! Great!!!" GusMcAttisonMusic - about LAST CUP OF COFFEE: "Really haunting, Tom & Justin. Really liked: 'but it seems like nothing's going on, so face down it will stay.' Your stuff feels meditative in a 1970's English kind of way, Al Stewart comes to mind. The images are vivid, but you pull back often enough to make it subverted. I dunno, I'm having a hard time saying it, but there really is something you're doing that's very strong and rare. Peace to you." (unattributed) - about a channel name: "You are worthy of your channels name.555555." (Note: my YouTube channel names are tubesbestmusic & lyricalbrilliance...wink, wink!) 1) pages chunk from LYRICAL BRILLIANCE. // Second sheet, more quotes: Young Mike - about WORTH THE WAIT: "This just blew my mind! Sold performance :D" funfrankie59 - about WARMER WATERS: "Nice tune good deep song take care Al" hnatkowicz - about CARRY ME: "I love this. It is so honest. '...at least I'll have fire...' -- perfect lyric." J rawl - about FRESCO: "Wow the melody is is just...wow." Amazing work with songs, Poet! :) - about PRETTY TOYS: "For some reason this song was sounding in my head a lot today even without me wanting it, lol." shalimarsgirl - about HALF FULL: "Beautiful blues and lyrics. The glass is half full for sure!" morningmayan - about LEAVING CALIFORNIA: "Awesome loved it!" cbfall - about LEAVING YOUR ROOTS: "What a brilliant song!! I mean it!! Just puts my mind at ease!!"

Essay text (excerpts): "Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind and its functions, especially those affecting behavior in a given context. Dudes, I could make an argument that psychology is everything under the sun and the very sun itself... So here is an article I stole from the Internet from some site called www.business2community.com written by Jacob Shriar: '5 Psychological Theories That Every Leader Should Know' [discusses The Hawthorne Effect, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, Authentic Self-Expression, Herzberg's Motivation-Hygiene Theory, Groupthink]." Follow-up page (3/30/2017, "COWORKER PSYCH THEORY CON'T"): "My theory is centered around the idea that the human being is not designed to be alone... As so many theories have already proven and alleged that people change how and what they think and do when they're either observed or else with/around other people then the basis of all psychology should be centered around not the individual or the self but rather how that self or individual relates itself to the collective... I believe that humans best work in teams of at least two or more... Hunting by humans is usually a group effort. Carrying things is often better with help. Raising children is most certainly not a job to be done alone... I believe that having somebody to whom one can have what I would best describe as a co-worker relationship with would probably be the best way to go about one's daily life... Let's call the patient the PRIMARY and let's refer to doctor as the HELPER... acquire an 'accountability buddy'... The perfect example is when people who have troubles controlling their drinking get involved in Alcoholics Anonymous and have sponsors who have been sober for a long time whom they can call when they feel weak and want to drink. It's an effective program! My friend John William's and his sponsor Mark - who has been sobe... Oops...I forgot it's anonymous! But you get my point. - Brian Rainstorm"
