Biography

This  alternative rock band out of Southeast Los Angeles the Gateway cites as they have become to be known. The group is composed of four “working class rockers” who blend their musical influences such as the Beatles and Los Panchos over modern rythmic grooves. They birth new sound escapes and musical odysseys with their modern retro sound.

The Appletons and record producer Byron Brizuela teamed up to record their self titled debut album. The record is filled with a bouquet of catchy songs that speak to the fans looking for something refreshing to connect to.

The Appletons showcase 14 musical gems on this record that accent the Appletons’ unique musical signature expressed over different styles and sounds.  Jeannette Lopez’s lead vocals are reminiscent of some of the great female performers before her. Her style is “vintage-fresh,” soothing and hypnotic, bold yet sensitive. Chris Garza’s melodic bass lines and Ulyses’ uplifting lead guitar riffs dress Carlos Ramirez’s rhythm guitars.

Song Lyrics

The Appletons Song Lyrics

love

all that you long, all you impose

is all that you’ll ever be….

how boring is that, to measure your life….

with all you deserve, and want more and more

taking from those who starve

why should you care, why should you dare

to feel….something that’s real

you can always touch your heart and know that it’s real

you can always change your mind and learn how to feel

love…oh love….please change our minds

save us from greed, grant us the need….

to feel….something that’s real

well, you can always touch your heart and know that it’s real

you can always change your mind and learn how to feel

what will you take into your grave

if not all the things you’ve said

you can always touch your heart

and know that it’s real

you can always change your mind

and learn how to feel

 

 

a minute of hope

if poison’s alright to have by your side

you’ll always glean what’s behind

you barrel your fright and hide it with lies

sometimes you scream with your eyes

oh….you take what is worth, no matter the hurt

and you….dance in the dark and wait for a start

we rather secure a minute of hope

and laugh while we cry with dry eyes

the picture you keep of your younger springs

is to hope that you’ll pain will rewind

oh….you take what is worth, no matter the hurt

and you….dance in the dark and wait for a start

you’re holding, you’re holding to things you’ll regret

you’re asking the questions that nobody gets

you’re breathing the air that people infest

to make sure that you’re right and wrong

oh….you take what is worth, no matter the hurt

and you….dance in the dark and wait for a start

you’re holding, you’re holding to things you’ll regret

you’re asking the questions that nobody gets

you’re breathing the air that people infest

to make sure that you’re right and wrong

 

 

wedding song

once in every life, there comes a time of happiness

and tonight, i raise this glass and celebrate

i remember those nights, who was wrong or right

but tonight, because you said yes, you win all the fights

hold my hand and hang my coat

let me love you til’ i’m old

and when the sun is set and gone

it will be you and me

when you’re tired and you’re cold

i’ll light a fire in our home

and when the sun wakes up once more

it will be you and me

once in every life there has to be a child indeed

a little boy, a little girl, they’ll look like you and me

i’ll run home every night and kiss my love goodnight

and tonight because you said yes, let’s turn off the lights

hold my hand and hang my coat

let me love you til’ i’m old

and when the sun is set and gone

it will be you and me

when you’re tired and you’re cold

i’ll light fire in our home

and when the sun wakes up once more

it will be you and me

 

summer days

summer days, your eyes

summer days, your eyes

how you made me smile

how you made me laugh

how we danced that night and swore that it was love at first sight

summer days, how nice

summer days, how nice

how you held my hand

how you sang my name

how you touched my face and said that love had come for you and i

do you remember my name?

because i remember yours was summer days (summer days)

do you miss those nights?

because i miss those lies from you

but now it is through, and how is this through

 

 

remember me

i abhor the silence from my rested violence, in my dreams

when my eyes felt crowded and my thoughts screamed louder than streams

where was my guide that shoved me aside?

remember me

remember me

i retrieved the bleeding, like you i stood believing in kings

i also nursed my grieving with hash and other feelings in me

how to deny my real life?

remember me

remember me

did you take the dream?

did you sell our need?

to take a little time as one, we’re one, we’re one

remember me

remember me

how will i know to fold all of my goals?

when will you sing my song, when you’re alone?

remember me

remember me

 

 

melody No. 5

judas stuck to the plan

caesar sharpened the fang

nero stole the last dance

jesus whipped hypocrites

dante wrote your blind faith

which circle will you stake?

are you feeling drapes in your eyes

are you seeing graves aligned?

how is your right proclaimed?

where is your faith engraved?

and what does gravestone say………..

are you seeking traces of life?

are you quoting phrases of past?

‘cause i feel it in my yawns sometimes

and i feel it in my lungs alive

are you getting what you made in time to set your mind free?

are you paying all the debts you took away while talking?

i don’t get it, i would like to be your soul

i regret it, if all that i am is all that i sold

‘cause i feel it in my yawns sometimes

and i feel it in my lungs alive

 

 

drunk and in love

what a nice night to cry all by myself

and to think that you might be kissing someone else

you say that it’s time i drink bitter hurt

well if that’s what you want boy, i’ll say goodbye with this song

i’ll remember those nights

drunk and in love

how we danced slow and tight

and dedicated each song

what a sad way to end this book without words

without a smile on your face

you leave my heart at the door

please remember that night how you cried and i bled

and you promised my heart that your love would never end

i’ll remember those nights

drunk and in love

how we danced slow and tight

and dedicated each song

now i know that you might love someone else

well it runs through my heart of rags to know that i failed

 

 

table memories

what a beautiful night to feel my eyes cry

what a sentimental lie to assume that you’re still mine

would it be so impolite of me

to ask what i failed to be

for you to leave this song behind

would i be behaving perfectly

to request a final melody and sing in prose about your lies

well my heart can only take so much

and this pain dwells in this empty glass

i beg you fool, here’s my guitar

what a marvelous disguise to prop a smile at times

what an extraordinary lie to say your love’s behind

would i be disclosing secret things

if this song makes a fool of me

when i am drunk, remembering your smile

would it be really dumb of me

to add that you’re in love with me

and just pretend your watch is behind

well if they ever break your break

like you broke mine

please come back home

you can break mine….

 

 

half my time

half my time i spent it chasing friends

while half the world was waiting for the end

and half the gods i knew i had to pay with pain

half my thoughts were always left unsaid

well half my compliments were for the dead

and half my payers meant to contemplate my shame

that i can’t change

i can’t change

now they rather that i stay indoors

(and shut my mouth)

‘cuz all the things i learned were always wrong

(they scream and shout)

well half my laughs were only seconds long instead

i can’t change

i can’t change

stop the beating if the song slows down

stop the bleeding when the lights go out

is it too late

is it too late

 

 

rays of light

if your hands shakes are opinions use your eyes instead

next time you feel luck upon you the decks will change

if you’re conscience fails to get you they will deal again

to feel just one next day

and hold a sunray

if you ask if i believe you that all depends

when you ask if i can see it well not the same

to feel just one next day

and hold the sunray

to feel the touch of ray

and feel its warmth

how many time you ask what’s wrong, stop and smile and ask how you’re doping

how many days you waste alone, how many times we don’t take fault

to feel just one next day

and hold the sunray

to feel the touch of ray

and feel its warmth

 

 

today

i heard all the things you said

how should i pretend you care

the more i give the more you take

those little lies you failed to fake

when you said my name

 

what’s the use of staying my friends

i prefer to leave this cage

you never give you only take

but this abuse is my mistake

i think i’ll fly away

i am a strong girl

i’m a new girl

today

i’m going to start a new life today

full of me and free of pain

no more shame no more games

today is the day my life begins

i’ll never be the same

will never sbe the same

i’m a strong girl

i’m a new girl

today

i am superwoman and i’m feeling invincible

i am starting over today and never will let go, oh no….

today

i am gonna  liberate myself with new thoughts

i’m taking all i gave and nothing you got

no one is gonna play again with my heart

i’m a strong girl

i.m a new

i’m my own girl

today

i’m a strong girl

i.m a new girl

today

 

 

time

it’s like a lithe, aside, but you can never make it

right, one side, one knife, well you can always fake it

it’s time

it’s time…….

am i, the lie, you hide, that you can never take it

back, just like, a cry, but you can never bend it

it’s time

it’s time…….

i can always tell you about the end of the world

exclude and gather stills until we make up our own

one of those, you know the ones that waste your time

one of those, you know the ones that help us rewind

that time….

inside, behind, a lie, but you can never help it

shine, rewind, the lie, that you will always chase it

time…..

it’s time

that you can never change it

it’s time

that you can never help it, never help it

it’s time

 

 

 

butterfly

you tremble like a violin in fear

you nurture those serpents in your eyes

in time you’ll feel my grin near boy

in time, in time, you’ll know dear boy

you swallow the butterfly in me

my gestures have nearly run dry

and now i hear the near of spring boy

it’s time, it’s time; you yield your seed boy

every little bit of virtue is fading out

every little bit of virtue is falling out

one is to hold the monster alone while others refrain from time

i’ll get you through, i’ll get you through, i’ll get you through the light

every little bit of virtue is fading out

every little bit of virtue is falling out

one is to hold the monster alone while others refrain from time

i’ll get you through, i’ll get you through, i’ll get you through the light

 

 

even when….

love is a story

of all the things you ever wanted to feel right

and even when the world was not in tune you always found it right

love is a worry

of all the things you never wanted in your life

and it can sometimes seem so useless and sometimes vile

and when your arms entwine the edge of solace

and all the things you’ve done just fade

and no one seems to realize that loving causes so much pain

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on

even if the things in life just never seem to match the things you’ve done before

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on

be strong don’t you worry

you make a better world by being who you are

even when the answers that we find don’t seem to be right

and when your arms entwine the edge of solace

and all the things you’ve done just fade

and no one seems to realize that loving causes so much pain

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on

even if the things in life just never seem to match the things you’ve done before

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on

love is all we got

love is all we are

love………….

and when your arms entwine the edge of solace

and all the things you’ve done just fade

and no one seems to realize that loving causes so much pain

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on

even if the things in life just never seem to match the things you’ve done before

remember that i’ll never leave, know that i will carry on
