Deron Wade: Music

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)
• MP3 short clip, lo-fi play (modem)

This is for every artist out there who has struggled - but continues to persevere and follow their dreams.
With that being said, it is also a statement on the Media and Hollywood - but that is where I leave you to decide what the song is really about. Whether I like it or not, I watched the final American Idol. What does that say about me?

Henry is sitting sideways with his feet up and he's feeling a little claustrophobic as he sips his beer.
He wears his face unshaven cause that's how they did it back when peace and love weren't just words but a story he lived in.

And the costumed players act out a play inside their heads as the cars on Hollywood Blvd drift on by. Just like Ghosts they see a face in the movies and not the reality of what has passed them by

But they'll keep on trying
Just to make it one day

Franks stands in the shadow, sipping a martini, if only life was so easy, he thinks as he says his line. Just part of the background he only hears but one sound, a jaded voice that tells him, "Do it one more time!"

And a young man plays guitar on the streets of the Promenade and waits for some coins to come his way. Just like Chelsea Williams he hopes to make a million, playing to a crowd who would rather turn away.

But he'll keep on trying
Just to make it one day

Gonna Be a Star, LA
Gonna Make it in the Movies, LA
Gonna play my guitar, LA
Gonna be a Rockstar Someday

The hustlers with their dreams are all wrapped up in the seams of their coats that they wear as part of their disguise. Strangers in the night, weave right on by, as they push their songs on every passerby.

Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, some say I look like a Wilson Brother and even my own mother knows the Hilton team, and that's not even counting Britney and her sister, boy am I gonna miss her followed by TMZ. The Deniros, Al Pacinos, Jimmy Stewarts and Marlon Brandos, the entire cast of Sopranos and Heros season 1, make sure to change the channel for American Idol and Dancing with the stars is by far the best show in town

but we'll keep on trying
Just to make it one day
