| Lyrics: | It's not you; it's me I think you finally see I can't keep my heart to myself It's out there on the shelf For the whole world to see It's not you; it's us Sorry for all of the fuss I keep thinking I can change my ways One of these days Oh one if these days If I wave the olive branch Can I have another chance Sometimes it seem like we're still in love It's not me; it's you You're too good to be true You're too good for a fool like me It comes naturally And yet it's still hard to do So right there baby see It's not me it's you It's not me; it's you You're too good to be true You're too good for a fool like me It comes naturally And yet it's still hard to do So right there baby see It's not me it's you |

Buddy Moncrief
Somewhere out on New Route 66, about 50 miles west of Sinatra and 75 miles east of Tom Waits, Swanson struts his swingin' and singin'. He loves Dave Frishberg songs and Johnny Walker in a tumbler. He'd like to hear Kurt Elling cover Stone Temple Pilots. Lonnie Johnson is God.
On his latest full-length release "We Can't Party Like We Used To" (2009 Acoustic SwaneeLand), Swanson pounds out 12 original vocal jazz cuts with a cool retro vibe. His bluesy vocals and tasty guitar licks remind of crooners past and present - Sinatra, Cole, John Pizzarelli come to mind - but his clever songwriting has a leaner, edgier feel to it that puts him squarely in the current century.
