Lyrics to JOEY THE DOGG
joey is the name of my dog
a little puppy who can bark and talk
goes to my school
everyone thinks he’s cool
cuz my puppy’s got a really big heart
joey knows the answers in class
raises his paw cuz he got no hands
and u can bet he’s the teachers pet
but its all good cuz he makes us laugh
his name is joey the dogg
and when i’m sad he lets me hold him tight
he’s by my side when i sleep at night
when i get moody joey shakes his booty
just like that, he makes me feel alright
i feel alright
and if u ask him what his name is,
he’ll say joey the dogg
my little puppy is the greatest
its joey….the most the beautiful dog
he’s joey…a beautiful dog, a beautiful dog…

and if u ask him what his name is

I’m in love with joey the dogg
i’m in love with joey the dogg
i’m in love with joey the dogg
his name is joey…joey the dogg
Tony T Nguyen has released a music video to his single “Two of Us”. It takes place in the distant future with only two robots left (one male and one female). The scientist attempts to rebuild the world with love by uploading an old file (modern day) of how men and women are suppose to bond with each other. During this process, the scientist tries to contain any viruses from infecting the file so that the robots can have a pure transfer of what love is with no corrupted memories.
The video also features vocals from Connie Lim as well as appearances by Kim Do and Can Nguyen from Poreotics. Kristine Sa is credited as the songwriter.

Lyrics to Two of Us by Tony T Nguyen
Male:
The numbers on this clock
They haven’t changed for days
Is this how I should feel
Transcending time and space
Female:
We move and inch
and all this commotion, this release
I’m at a loss for words
What is this feeling in me?
Male:
Well there was a time that
The most simple thing is all we need
As if I once knew it
Female:
There was a world where
What matters is simple as can be
There was nothing to it
Both:
My skin and flesh can see
The deepest part of me
Male:
My heart remembers all that space
My lips remember how you taste
Another time, another place
Female:
Heartbeats racing
Fingers tracing
Empty spaces
Raw emotion
Crawling under
Spilling over
Still together
Still in motion
Scream in silence
Quiet guidance
Safe reliance
Deep as oceans
Both:
I can faintly recall how it was
Male:
So here we are
Wherever here and now may be
Female:
I close my eyes
But I still see you seeing me
For anyone who is interested in attending, Hold Up Art Lovers (HUPA) will be hosting an art gallery featuring a body of work on paper and wood that artist Tony Hong has been amassing since he has begun his bold new style of line-centric work over the past two years. The show will also feature limited edition silkscreen prints hand pressed and pulled by the artist.
Tony Hong is an emerging Korean-American contemporary artist who works exclusively in ink. While he considers himself a simple line maker, these lines ultimately form an intensely detailed image of organic matter.
HUPA curator Brian says…
“The concentration and attention to detail required to execute the pieces Hong is showcasing in ‘Foundations’ is rarely seen in today’s pop centric art world. Not only does he refocus our attention from character and brand, which we typically have seen so much of in the past years, to more basic elements of art such as line and weight, but also Hong is on the cusps of the new focus in Californian contemporary which is an emphasis on design as it pertains to fine art.”
The event will be held at 358 E 2nd Street in Los Angeles. For more information, go to the facebook event page.
