When we heard about this album finally being released, we fired off an email to ask Billy to give us the lowdown on some of his favorite tracks. A few hours later he came through in a big way. So here is Billy to discuss his favorite tracks from Stimulator!
RUSH: This song was a very personal way for me to deal with a life that I once led. It is a true story about some of the things that happened to me when I lived on the streets of Downtown LA, and abused very dangerous drugs for quite some time. The feeling of wanting to cut your own throat, and not having the balls to do it, is one you never forget. By the time we had all finished with it, the song became one of my favourite tracks on the album, and because of the personal nature of the lyrics, one of my favourites to sing as well. References to "6th and Bonnie Brae" and "woke up to a one mm of silence and despair" still ring true today, ten years after this song was written.
The CD is out now digitally on iTunes and limited edition hard copy CD is available exclusively from - www.billymorrison.net
