about
In My Own Words:
With this song, I wanted to touch upon the disconnect that exists even in a “more connected world.” Much like an old Peter, Paul, & Mary folk song, I wanted to focus the musicality around tight harmonies building up to a harmonious bridge of sound that transported your head above clouds. The title takes a shot at Facebook (and online presence in general) while presenting the fickle ways in which we cultivate community and relationships.

lyrics
I’ve given myself away
I’ve given myself away
Couldn’t help it
This time
Left here wondering
I’m left here wondering
Was it worth it
Worth the crime
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
It’s funny all the faces
It’s funny all the faces you put on
For a book in the cloud
Remember the photographs
Remember the photographs that are never
As good as you thought
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
I’ve given myself away
Couldn’t help it
This time
Left here wondering
I’m left here wondering
Was it worth it
Worth the crime
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
It’s funny all the faces
It’s funny all the faces you put on
For a book in the cloud
Remember the photographs
Remember the photographs that are never
As good as you thought
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see
There’s a hole in my head
Where I store the regrets
That I knew but I couldn’t see

Friends and Foes
by Tim Be Toldsupported by 10 fans who also own “Book in the Cloud”
Sometimes I really go for Christian rock - not only because of the heartwarming lyrics, but because it frequently involves exquisite melodies and arrangements. Tim Ouyang aka "Tim Be Told" is an undisputable master of this genre, especially when it comes to ballads. With the mind-blowing selection of songs on "Friends and Foes", he certainly found much more new friends than foes.

This unfailingly is the song I go to when I feel attacked, discouraged, defenseless, vulnerable, torn up, beaten, ashamed, miserable, emotionless, etc. Incredible track...

Love and Happiness
by Tim Be Toldsupported by 7 fans who also own “Book in the Cloud”
A magical collection. Each track hits home like nothing else I've heard all year. Tim accomplishes what few (arguably more popular) artists have, trading formula for nuance. Every artistic risk pays off. The holy blend of genres Tim pulls off here may not be for everyone, but I find it the musical equivalent of what Kafka calls great art: it smashes the frozen sea inside us. This album is an immense and bighearted gift to the world. (Impossible to choose a favorite track.)
