Lyrics:
Lined up like so many rusted out old cars
Each with a story and history all its own
The memories may have faded but the scars remain
From all the mistakes I've made so far
There was Genna down in Georgia
Angeline in Tennessee
And that sweet young thing in Austin
That made a loser out of me
There's no escape, hell I'm just trying to crawl
Away from the mistakes, I made so far
Yeah, I'm magnetized to trouble, like a dog to a bone
Falling prey to demons that I cannot control
Yeah, sometimes I win a battle
Yeah, but mostly I just fall
Pick myself right back up to get tossed against the wall
I'm not feeling sorry for myself, don't get me wrong
'Cause I deserve what's coming for all those things I done
I'm just tired
It's time to move on
From all the mistakes I made so far
I'm magnetized to trouble, like a dog to a bone
Falling prey to demons that I cannot control
Yeah, sometimes I win a battle, oh but mostly I just fall
Pick myself right back up to get tossed against the wall
I'm not feeling sorry for myself, don't get me wrong
'Cause I deserve what's coming for all those things I done
I'm just tired
It's time to move on
From all the mistakes I made so far
All the mistakes I made so far
All the mistakes I made, hm
So far
What would you get if John Lee Hooker quarantined with Kraftwerk? Jim Keller’s mix of industrial blues and industrial menace, ”Don’t Get Me Started,” could turn out to be the definitive song for the pandemic. Keller first got attention years ago when, as part of San Francisco group Tommy Tutone, he co-wrote and performed “867-5309” (“Jenny Jenny”), a classic power pop tune that made 80’s radio so listenable.
After migrating to New York, he jumped the fence, running Philip Glass’s publishing company and taking over management of Glass’s career as director of Dunvagen Music.
In 2005, Keller returned to recording and performing and with a voice aged by time, whiskey and promises, he’s got the sound of someone who could have been Tom Petty’s therapist. He has since recorded six well-received solo albums: Sunshine in My Pocket (2009), Soul Candy (2011), Heaven Can Wait (2014), By No Means (2020), Spark & Flame (2022) & Daylight (2024)
A cult figure in the music business, Keller’s gigs at New York’s Lakeside Lounge and The Rockwood Music Hall are legendary. If the best players in town weren’t on stage with him, they were in the audience, singing along, playing along, making the sort of noise that would get you locked up in a lesser town.
By No Means has been written with longtime collaborator Byron Isaacs (The Lumineers, Levon Helm), produced by Mitchell Froom (Los Lobos, Crowded House, Randy Newman) and Backed by Los Lobos’ David Hidalgo on guitar
It’s the phrasing that hooks you, sly and all knowing but still waiting to be told that one secret that might make it all worth it, that might make sense of this whole crazy mess.
