Fair Verona Roll Their Cigarettes With "Starlight" In Their Latest Evocative Alt Indie Pop Single
July 29, 2022

It’s taken me a few months to process everything, and I think I’m now able to actually share this publicly, on my business account. This whole project has been a huge part of my life, so I can’t imagine not posting about it. I’m going to take you on a journey of this project and provide artwork for each of the songs on “In Memoriam. ”Just over a year ago, my friend and I decided to start to undertake a big project - which started with the release of “Egomaniac” on June 11th, 2021.

It was an album that had the working title of “Great Minds Don’t Think.” This title started as an inside joke of whenever we’d do something stupid at the same time - which happened often - especially when we were recording in the studio. On my personal instagram account, the live stream where we came up with this title is still posted.

Our 1 year hiatus wasn’t planned, but it wasn’t unexpected. The pandemic had gotten worse, and we both just got super busy.

We were planning on taking all of our old recordings and song concepts and re-analyze and re-record those that we deemed worthy. 

A few months ago, we would have been finishing up and releasing our next single, “Starlight.”

When we released “Egomaniac,” I never would have thought I would be writing this post just over a year later.

This album has taken a turn, and is now titled “In Memoriam.” It consists of most of our songs that we’ve written, including drafts and alternative versions, and is in honor of Margaret “Mickey” Vaughan Mairs, the singer/songwriter of our band (Fair Verona.)

Mickey and I had been recording songs since 2008 - when we were about 7 or 8 years old. I still have some of these recordings on my computer. To say that she was a close friend is an understatement. We recorded music together, made films together, had photoshoots - tried almost every creative outlet… together. 

The first song that we took seriously was “He’s My World,” which I believe was recorded in 2012. I vividly remember recording this song, and I still have the video of us recording it. Of course, this is the first song that we truly recorded, and I believe Mickey would slap me if I posted it publicly, so I won’t. [To those that have the family and friends CD version of “In Memoriam,” the song  and the video is available through the digital download code. Do not share it outside of your own families, thank you.]

We realized we really enjoyed the recording process after recording “He’s My World.” Mickey continued to write lyrics and melodies while I learned more about music production and the backside of music editing. The next song we started recording was “Dream.” This song was originally on our debut “Covers and Originals” album - which was distributed for a short few years. Just like “He’s My World,” “Dream” is very much a love song. However, the latter includes Mickey’s realization of wanting music to be a part of her future. After we recorded those two songs, we decided to work on some covers of more famous songs so we could figure out how to create our own sound. Our first covers of choice were “Two Chord” by Sleeping with Sirens, followed by “Death of a Bachelor” by Panic! At The Disco. “Two Chord” was an easy choice because of its simplicity. We chose “Death of a Bachelor” so we could experiment with infusing our own sound into someone else’s song - which is a great way to figure out your own sound. 

The following year, we recorded “Arts and Crafts,” which truly shows Mickey’s lyrical development. No more overly-repeated phrases, and some themes that were carried through future songs. These themes include fireflies, teenage years, and initially subtle drug references. Once we finished this song, we both took about a 3 year break from Fair Verona. In fact, at this time, we didn’t even have a band name. We just enjoyed making music together.

It was now 2016, the year that we recorded one song fully, and a draft of another song. The song that we finished was “You’re Too Far Away Now” - which was the first heartbreak song Mickey wrote. This was also the same year that I was in California for 6 months. I reached out to her to talk about music, and apparently we were both reading Romeo and Juliet in our English classes. We continued the conversation on music, and eventually came to the agreement for our band name - Fair Verona - since our music had similar themes to Romeo and Juliet. Such themes include The Power of Love, The Power of Heartbreak, Family and Obligations, Defying Authority, and finally, Destiny and Fate.

More to the story coming soon

Track Art, Lyrics, and Song Notes:

1. Starlight - Mickey's Mix

High speed

in a white cadillac

getting gas before the dawn

loose grip on the steering wheel

thinking about the way we used to fall….

we used to fall…

mmmm

lush pink roses in the fireplace

covered up by baby’s breath and ashes

blue and pink in the sky above

cotton candy clouds are our aesthetic


Maybe I’m just jumping in

without testing the water

tell me that I’m in the good old days

before they’re over

oh

‘cause now I’m sailing and I’m

rolling up a cigarette with starlight

hmmm

and I’m still waiting cause you said you would

pull through after midnight

to go fly with me


thrift shop sweaters in the springtime

leaving school so we can go get faded

chasing honeybees, we think we’re sly

First thing in the morning, could have waited


What the fuck am I gonna do

say “no, I don’t think so”


cause now I’m sailing and I’m

rolling up a cigarette with starlight

oh

and I’m still waiting cause you said you would

pull through after midnight

to go fly with me


Life’s getting better….

No, it’s never getting better

and the only time it’s better

is when I fly


and I said

Life’s getting better….

No, it’s never getting better

‘cause the only time it’s better

is when you’re by my side


‘cause now I’m sailing and I’m

rolling up a cigarette with starlight

oh

and I’m still waiting cause you said you would

pull through after midnight

to go fly

and I’m still waiting cause you said you would

pull through after midnight

to go fly with me

4. Things I Need You To Know

In the night there’s fireflies

Didn’t know I was the only one that could see them

Guilty kindness, telling lies

Didn’t know I was the only one that could free them

Macarons and gummy bears

We come to life and then we dance in summer air


So please don’t go, darling now I need you so

Cause alone I wouldn’t live right if I tried

And if you stayed, darling I would never change

I would just sit and fall to pieces in my mind

Oh I’m alive,

guess this is life.


Fucking up my pillow case

In the morning we smoke cigarettes

and vibe out to heavy bass.

Drinking cola through the day,

Know that I would pass out if I let it any other way.

Tea and honey, it’s my fault

I know that you will fuck me over, but I don’t care at all.


So please don’t go, darling now I need you so

Cause alone I wouldn’t live right if I tried

And if you stay, darling I would never change

I would just sit and fall to pieces in my mind

Oh I’m alive,

guess this is life.

5. Egomaniac - Unplugged

I’m sitting by my window

Fueling up on diesel

Talking to some of the shallow thoughts in my head

It’s 2am and rainy

My friends are in the back seat

I’m wondering if they know that they’re acting

brain dead

Maybe I’m just… getting too high

‘cause I know that it’s all in my mind


And there’s a

voice in my head that’s keeping me

up at night

don’t know if I can trust it cause it’s

leading me left and right

and there’s a

voice in my head that’s telling me

don’t close your eyes

they’ll try to cop yours style blow your cover and

fill all your drugs with lies


baby don’t cry


Don’t tell me that you love me

I know you’re fuckin crazy

wait that’s me, I’d drag you down

If it meant I could get high

I know you don’t wanna see me

Like this anymore, well that’s too bad,

cause it’s clear that I’m peachy as pie


‘cause there’s a

voice in my head that’s keeping me

up at night

don’t know if I can trust it cause it’s

giving me black and white

and there’s a

voice in my head that’s telling me

don’t close your eyes

they’ll try to steal your playlist and replace it with the

feeling of wanting to die

baby don’t

cry

Baby don’t cry, oh


Paranoid and disturbed

I don’t deserve

Anything that’s coming to me

But I know if I change

it won’t be the same

But I guess that’s a price I

gotta pay


It’s just a

voice in my head that’s keeping me

up at night

don’t know if I can trust it but it’s

putting up quite the fight

and it’s a

voice in my head that’s telling me

if you close your eyes

you’ll be safe from hatred, in a place where you might

finally get some drive


so baby don’t cry

baby don’t cry

so baby don’t cry

baby don’t cry

9. Little Things

She’s walking forward

But not leaving any footprints

on the ground

Her path is yet to come

She’s just clinging onto hope

It will be found

Maybe She’s just searching for a life that won’t be shown

She’s disaster

Walking faster

If it means my life will get up and go

However long that takes

I can see you now

She’s walking

Moving slowly on her own

Breathe

Just Breathe in and out

Count down from 100

Just enjoy life without doubt

Girl

Daydreaming’s not a problem

We’ve always got tomorrow,

you’ve got time

She is young and she is wild

Baby girl, you’re still a child,

You can find the little things in life

Cherry blossoms in the pine tree swaying in her backyard

Wonder if she ever contemplated how things really are, ooh

She speaks beautifully

But never says the words that fill her mind

All she’s focused on is finding ways to help speed up her time

The only time she has

I can see you now

She’s walking

Moving slowly on her own

Breathe

Just Breathe in and out

Count down from a thousand

Just enjoy life without doubt

Girl

Daydreaming’s not a problem

We’ve always got tomorrow,

you’ve got time

She

is young and she is wild

Baby girl, you’re still a child,

You can find the little things in life

The little things in life

I can see you now

She’s walking

Moving slowly on her own

Breathe

Juste breathe in and out

Count down from a hundred

Just enjoy life without doubt

Girl

Daydeaming’s not a problem

We’ve always got tomorrow,

you’ve got time

She is young and she is wild

Baby girl, you’re still a child,

You can find the little things in life

The little things in life

The little things in life

The little things in life

The little things in

Life

10. Arts and Crafts - Live Version

Novocaine

Couldn't numb this pain

Of the fire burning deep inside for you

Butterflies

You're the apple of my eye

The one who keeps me pushing right on through

We're making tissue paper flowers

Hour after hour

Folding every single day away

People wonder how they get here

The colors that we both fear

We'll get out and make them say the things they say

We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Oh oh, oh oh, oooh


Tie up shoes

It's what I do

Wear black and blue

I always knew how people saw me

Anxiety

Eyes lined with black

But in reality

The surface is all I wanted them to see

Now I'm making tissue paper flowers

Hour after hour

Folding every single day with you

People wonder how they get here

The colors that we should fear

But we don't

We'll make them do the things they do


We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts


Teenage years

Dried up tears

The time that I spent caring was so long

Fireflies, and

Bloodshot eyes

Staying up at night listening to songs

Carefully we move along


We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts


carefully we,

carefully, we move along.

11. Idols

So tell me why

I’m sitting in the room

Atop my self destruction

Staring at the looking glass

At four in the morning

With a cigarette

Hanging from my lips

Care Free

But they say

There’s no way to find yourself

Unless you stop your own corruption

______

But we’re gonna try to stay together

‘Till the middle of July

But all I really need is to hear

Please

Baby

Stay a little longer

‘Cause I might die here all alone

And all I ever want is a purpose for my effort

‘Cause it’s so hard to try harder

And I don’t want to go home

Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra

All those idols, yes,

I wonder how they didn’t lose their pride

Catching fame like fireflies,

Seems to make a person die

A little bit inside

Maybe I could be the air that you inhale

Before a moment

Pick me up and breathe me in like nicotine

As you say

Oh, I could quit at any time

When I was young

I was told to listen to the words of my chosen

components

They say

The art of losing may seem not too hard to master, but darling, I don’t think you have the time.

No no no

But all I really need is to hear

Please

Baby

Stay a little longer

‘Cause I might die here all alone

And all I ever want is a purpose for my effort

‘Cause it’s so hard to try harder

And I don’t want to go home

Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra

All those idols, yes,

I wonder how they didn’t lose their pride

Catching fame like fireflies,

Seems to make a person die

A little bit inside

I want to end up like

Josephine Baker

You can find me up in France

I used to listen __________

But I was young

12. Heroine (Acoustic)

Caught up in your mind

(If you wanna go, say it now, do it loud)

We're running out of time

(So don't let everything, or anything come out)

Find out how to breathe

(Scream until you feel your lungs come out)

Run away with me

Away from reality

‍

I said, "Don't let go,

Just hold me close"

Ohh woah

Don't let go

Blow me out and breathe me in

I'll be your heroine

‍

Can you walk in a straight line?

Do you hear my voice

Can you feel

My hand across your skin

Make sure your eyes are

Locked on mine now

Look up at me,

Take a deep breath in and

‍

Don't let go

Look me up and down

And hold me close

Don't let go

Blow me out and breath me in

Blow me out and breath me in

I'll be your heroine

(Like heroine)

Ohhh, oh

I'll be your heroine

14. Sweet Tooth

You’re like that, oh, oh

You’re no good

You’re no good for me


You’re like that

Caramel corn that gets stuck in my teeth,

like that cotton candy that I’m not supposed to eat,

The candies I steal that just taste like buttercream.

You’re what I crave

when I eat one special treat

I’ve got a problem,

and it’s one that’s here to stay

So don’t give me novacaine,

‘cause it won’t just go away.


I’ve got a sweet tooth,

I’ve got a sweet tooth

For you

I’ve got a sweet tooth,

I’ve got a sweet tooth

for you


I’ve got a craving

And you’re packed with sugar galore

I know I’m addicted,

but you’re all that I want and more.

You’re not something I can ignore.


You’re no good for me

I’ve got a sweet tooth

I’ve got a sweet tooth

I’ve got a sweet tooth

for you

15. You're Too Far Away Now

Everyday I get through,

And knowing when I come home

I'll talk to you.

And all along, you've been by my side.

Yeah you keep me from going to run and hide

If one day everything spun out of control,

but you're stuck with me,

You put up with me.

Whooo

But I still wonder why I'm feeling so alone.

You're too far away now.

All the time, you said I'm beautiful,

And it puts a big, huge smile across my face.

You make me laugh, You say You're beautiful

Boy you make me feel like my problems are feeling fates,

Whoah

But when I don't I see you, there's a big hole in my heart

But you come back to me,

You always come back to me.

But I still wonder why we have to be apart.

You're too far away now.

We'll be with each other 'till the end,

And everyday I get to say that you're my best friend.

And every day I start to feel more alone,

But you're always there, you just never come home.

But sometimes everything spins out of control,

But you're stuck with me,

You're just stuck with me.


And as long as you're here

I feel better on my own.

'Cause you're too far away now.

Yeah, you're too far away now.

You're just too far away now.

You're too far,

You're too far away now.

16. Arts and Crafts

Oh, woah

Oh, woah woah

Novocaine

Couldn't numb this pain

Of the fire burning deep inside for you

Butterflies

You're the apple of my eye

The one who keeps me pushing right on through

We're making tissue paper flowers

Hour after hour

Folding every single day away

People wonder how they get here

The colors that we both fear

We'll get out and make them say the things they say

We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Oh oh, oh oh, oooh

Tie up shoes

It's what I do

Wear black and blue

I always knew how people saw me

Anxiety

Eyes lined with black

But in reality

The surface is all I wanted them to see

Now I'm making tissue paper flowers

Hour after hour

Folding every single day with you

People wonder how they get here

The colors that we should fear

But we don't

We'll make them do the things they do

We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Oh, woah

Oh, woah woah

Oh, woah

Oh, woah woah

Teenage years

Dried up tears

The time that I spent caring was so long

Fireflies,

Bloodshot eyes and

Staying up at night listening to songs

Carefully we move along

We should be free

Living a life that's full of laughs

But for now we're stuck here doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts

Doing arts and crafts, yeah

Oh, woah

Oh, woah woah

Oh, woah

Oh, woah woah

17. Dream

I wanna be famous

I wanna be a star

I want you to be with me there, babe

I want people to know who we are

Maybe one day you will see

Every one says that you belong with me

Just maybe, maybe, maybe

But not today

'Cause it's hard to follow your dreams

If you can't keep up with them

You ask me what my dream is

But I tell you now or never again

You're my dream

You're my dream

Oh, you're my dream

feel so right?
