Cat Tale original trailer [HD], 2007 canceled film from Imagi Studios

rik1138 2019-02-27 | To see the voice actors perform their lines, watch this version:
youtube.com/watch?v=8PSlYkTdt2I
For those interested in clips of canceled animated films, here is the full version of the Cat Tale trailer. (More details below)

Imagi Studios in California was working on this film between 2005 and 2007. Called Cat Tale, it featured a cat that was accidentally delivered to a family of dogs with their new litter (thus his name- Rover). He grew up believing he was a dog, but knew he was different. He eventually learns he is a cat and travels to Catopolis to find out who he is...

The studio had final scripts, the entire movie story-boarded and a fully animated trailer at the time they shut down the California offices and auctioned off all the assets of in-production films, and the company's hardware. They also had chosen, and hired, most of the voice cast. Sean Astin, Elisha Cuthbert, Fred Willard, Catherine O'Hara, Jerry O'Connell, Billy Idol, Michael Richards, Stanley Tucci, Rip Torn and several others all recorded their lines for the movie.

In the pile of assets for this film that I received from that auction was an HD copy of the trailer with full dialog (and even a 35mm film copy of it), all the hand drawn storyboards, all the VO recording sessions, copies of the script in various stages and re-writes, mockups of the theatrical poster and theatrical standees, even press kits for the film... Probably wouldn't have been the most spectacular animated film ever made, but kind of a shame it got this far and never made it.

Charlie Harrison on Piano
Dori Amarilio on Guitar

Lyrics:
Broken windows and empty hallways,
A pale dead moon in a sky streaked with grey.
Human kindness overflowing,
And I think it's gonna rain today.

Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles,
The frozen smiles to chase love away.
Human kindness overflowing,
And I think it's gonna rain today.

Lonely, lonely.
Tin can at my feet,
I think I'll kick it down the street.
That's the way to treat a friend.

Lights before me they implore me:
Help the needy, show them the way.
Human kindness overflowing,
And I think it's gonna rain today.

Lonely, lonely.
Tin can at my feet,
I think I'll kick it down the street.
That's the way to treat a friend.

Bright before me the signs implore me:
Help the needy and show them the way.
Human kindness is overflowing,
And I think it's gonna rain today.

Samantha Sidley - Is That All There Is? @ The Gardenia 2018-08-23

rik1138 2018-08-27 | Samantha Sidley sings "Is That All There Is?" at the Gardenia on Aug 8th, 2018.
Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller
Dan Reckard: Piano
Vikram Devasthali: Trombone

Lyics:
When I was a little girl, my house caught on fire
And I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up
in his arms and raced me out of the burning building onto the pavement
I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go ny
And when it was all over I said to myself, is that all there is to a fire?
Is that all there is?

Is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is

And then one day, my daddy took me to see a circus,
The Greatest Show on Earth
There were clowns and dancing bears
And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads
And as I sat there watching I couldn't help but think there's something missing

And I don't know what, but when it was over
I said to myself, "is that all there is to a circus?"
Is that all there is?

Is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is

And then one day I fell in love with the most wonderful girl in the world
We would take long walks by the river or just sit there gazing into each other's eyes
We were very much in love
Then one day she went away and I thought I'd die, but I didn't
And when I didn't I said to myself, is that all there is to love?

Is that all there is, is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friend, then let's keep...

I know what you must be thinking, you're thinking
If that's the way she feels about it then why doesn't she just end it all?
Oh, no, not me I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment
Casue I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to all of you tonight
That when the final moment comes and I'm breathing my first breath,
I'm going to be saying to myself

Is that all there is, is that all there is?
If that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is.

Fiona Apple - Comes Love @ Largo 2015-01-26

rik1138 2018-04-09 | Fiona Apple sings 'Comes Love' at Largo with Benmont Tench and Sean Watkins. January 26th, 2015
(Sam H. Stept, Lew Brown, Charles Tobias 1939)

Comes a rainstorm, put your rubbers on your feet
Comes a snowstorm, you can get a little heat
Comes love, nothing can be done

Comes a heatwave, you can hurry to the shore
Comes a summons, hide your head behind a door
Comes love, nothing can be done

Don't try hiding
'Cause there isn't any use
You'll start sliding
When your heart turns on the juice

Comes a pox upon you, you can quarantine a room
Comes a rat in your flat, you can chase it with a broom
Comes love, nothing can be done

That's all, brother
If you've ever been in love
That's all, sister
You know what I'm singing of

Comes a nightmare, you can always stay awake
Comes depression, you can get another break
Comes love, put a bullet in the gun

Comes love, nothing can be done
No, no, Comes love, nothing can be done

LUO sings John Farrar's 'Hopelessly Devoted to You' on Feb 5th, 2017 at 131 Topanga.

Guess mine is not the first heart broken
My eyes are not the first to cry
I'm not the first to know there's
Just no getting over you

You know I'm just a fool who's willing
To sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see there's nothing left for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you

But now there's no where to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm outta my head hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

My head is saying fool forget him
My heart is saying don't let go
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you

But now there's no way to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm outta my head hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

Jackson Browne - My Twin (Eleni Mandell) @ The Bootleg 2017-01-25

Lyrics:
Why did that train derail?
201 victims were killed
Was my twin among the dead?
Was my twin expected to live?
I was here at home waiting for my twin to return

All these men and women gone
Rocked from the sky by a terrible storm
Was my twin among the many?
Was my twin at peace and ready?
I was here at home waiting for my twin to return

We never met but I believe my twin's out there
And he's looking for me
Sharp and quick
He'll compliment my
Slow, dull existence

Hey, hey
The ocean is insatiable

Took the crew and then the passengers
Was my twin the first or last?
Was my twin holding fast?
I was here at home waiting for my twin to return

We never met but I believe my twin's out there
And he's looking for me
Sharp and quick
He'll compliment my
Slow, dull existence

Fire fast, so fast it burns
Swallowing everything, a furious system
Was my twin among the lost?
Desperately breathing water from the faucet?
I was here at home waiting for my twin to return

Z Berg - Avalanche @ The Bootleg 2017-01-16 (Leonard Cohen cover)

rik1138 2017-01-17 | Z Berg performs Leonard Cohen's Avalanche at the Bootleg on Jan 16th, 2017. Part of night two of Albert & His Dreamboats' January residency, this night featuring the music of Leonard Cohen.

Well I stepped into an avalanche,
It covered up my soul;
When I am not this hunchback that you see,
I sleep beneath the golden hill.
You who wish to conquer pain,
You must learn, learn to serve me well.

You strike my side by accident
As you go down for your gold.
The cripple here that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold;
He did not ask for your company,
Not at the center, the center of the world.

When I am on a pedestal,
You did not raise me there.
Your laws do not compel me
To kneel grotesque and bare.
I myself am the pedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare.

You who wish to conquer pain,
You must learn what makes me kind;
The crumbs of love that you offer me,
They're the crumbs I've left behind.
Your pain is no credential here,
It's just the shadow, shadow of my wound.

I have begun to long for you,
I who have no greed
I have begun to ask for you,
I who have no need.
You say you've gone away from me,
But I can feel you when you breathe.

Do not dress in those rags for me,
You know you are not poor
And please don't love me quite so fiercely now
That I know that you are not sure,
It is your turn, beloved,
It is your flesh that I wear.

Z Berg - I Fall for the Same Face @ The Bootleg 2017-01-16

rik1138 2017-01-17 | Z Berg performs her song I Fall for the Same Face at the Bootleg Theater on Jan 16th, 2017.

I fall for the same face every time
I fall for the same familiar lines
I fall for the same face every time
I fall for the same familiar lies

Since he left, I find I'm looking for his likeness in the sky
In the falling rain, can't say goodbye
It's not my way

I fall for the same face every time
I fall for the same uncertain eyes
I fall for the same face every time
I fall for the same familiar lies

And when I wake up, I'll remember what I wished there was behind
That boyish gaze
That does remind me of his ways

That certain stare, that smile gets me every time
So what am I, if not resigned to make the same mistakes
To watch them play out the same way each night, so I

I fall for the same face every time
I fall for the same familiar lines
I fall for the same face every time
I fall for those old familiar lines
I fall for the same face every time

Bob Malone - Certain Distance @ The Songwriters Square 2016-12-18

rik1138 2016-12-21 | Bob Malone performing Certain Distance at Bill Berry's Songwriter's Square at the Lyric Hyperion Theatre on Dec 18th, 2016.

Loneliness, my old friend
It’s just been me and you
Since way back when
I’m surrounded by people
People are everywhere
But the cold wind blows through me
Like there’s no one there

CHORUS
It ain’t personal
If I don’t know your face
I feel a certain distance
From the whole human race
You can disconnect me
From this time and place
I feel a certain distance
From the whole human race

Little girl, you want to take me in
But put that cage around me
And I won’t never sing
I know you love me
But your love can never be
Cuz I’ll be tired of you
Before you’re tired of me

CHORUS

Empathy, wish you could spare me some
Seems like whole world’s problems
Are just a distant hum
I appreciate your pain
Baby, I really do
But I can’t heal your wounds
Honey, that’s all on you

CHORUS

T-Sisters - Woo Woo @ The Hi-Hat 2016-10-22

rik1138 2016-12-21 | T-Sisters perform Woo Woo at The Hi-Hat in Los Angeles on Oct 22nd, 2016.

Lyrics:
I’ve been roughed up talked down oh I been schooled
But at least I know I’ve been a fool
It’s been starin’ at me
Oh why didn’t I see
And I hope it’s not too late to go…

Somewhere way down the track oh I thought I’d jump on
See how this journey unfolds
Now I’ll never look back and I know I wasn’t wrong
Oh I’ll stay on this train till I’m old

Woo woo I hear it comin
Woo woo oh it’s in the air
Woo woo there’ll be no more runnin, 'cause I’m already there
Woo woo it takes me higher
Woo woo oh it brings me peace
Woo woo I feel the fire, I’m inspired by the heat

Oh it’s been a long road and I can’t tell you the distance
Right now that seems obsolete
I’ll keep ridin as long as I’m givin the chance
And that’s all I need to feel complete

Woo woo there'll be no more sorrow
Woo woo I will leave the fear
Woo woo I'll feel the water but it won't be from my fear
Woo woo it makes me lighter
Woo woo oh I won't look back
Woo woo I'll never tire of the rhythm of the clickety clack

Oh I don’t know where I’m going
And the line just keeps twistin
Maybe I couldn’t get there if I tried
But I’ll keep chuggin along
Won't regret what I’ve been missin
Baby I’m along for the ride

Woo woo I hear it coming
Woo woo oh it's in the air
Woo woo there'll be no more runnin, 'cause I'm already there
Woo woo oh it makes me lighter
Woo woo oh I won't look back
Woo woo I'll never tire of the rhythm of the clickety clack

Woo woo oh I’m feelin so good today
Woo woo oh I’m finally on my way
Woo woo there are really no words to say but…
Yeahhh

Woo woo oh I’m feelin so good today
Woo woo oh I’m finally on my way
Woo woo there are really no words to say but…
Yeahhh
Woo woooooooooo

Animaniacs - When Youre Traveling (Rob Paulsen live) @ ASMAC

rik1138 2016-11-07 | Rob Paulsen (voice of Yakko) with Randy Rogel on piano perform When You're Traveling from episode 87 of Animaniacs. Performed live at the ASMAC First Wednesdays event on November 2, 2016.
Animaniacs Live! coming to LA on April 15th, 2017!
Lyrics:
When you're traveling from Nantucket
Through Chicago to St. Paul,
And you're standing at an airport
And you look upon the wall,
There's a clock for every city
And a different time for all
From Asia through Malaysia to Peru.

Did you ever wonder why that
When it's six o'clock in Maine,
At precisely the same minute,
It is eight AM in Spain?
When it's breakfast time in Rome,
They're having lunch in the Ukraine
And it's supper up in upper Katmandu.

If the Earth were spinning faster
As the sun is going past her,
Than a day would only be an hour long.
And school, when they begin it,
Would only last a minute,
Before everybody has to run along.

If the Earth were the planet
That was closest to the sun,
A year would be much shorter
And you'd have a lot of fun.
'Cause by the time you were in first grade,
You'd be over twenty-one
And you'd live to be nine hundred-three, or four.

Time is relative, dependent,
You can save it, you can spend it
Doing things you like to do
Or learning how.
You can't see it, you can't taste it....
But you certainly can waste it...
Which is really what we're doing here right now!

The international date line's
An imaginary cleft.
Today is on the right side
And tomorrow's on the left.
So when you cross it, do you then arrive
The day before you left?
That's how it'd work, it's quite berserk, you see.

So if you were born in China
While I'm born in Carolina,
Well, then, you're a day ahead of me, you see.
And the way I've got it reckoned,
If we're born in the same second,
Then why should you be a day older than me?

But it really is no miracle
The difference in our birth.
Because the world is spherical,
That's why around the Earth...
There's always different times for Moscow,
London, Boston and Ft. Worth.
And that's the way it's always gonna be.

So remember, when you're traveling
From Nantucket to St. Paul,
And you're standing in that airport
With those clocks upon the wall,
That you should think about this song, my friend,
And then you will recall...
That it was mildly amusing...
But then totally confusing...
And I'll bet you wish I hadn't sung at all!

rik1138 2015-10-23 | Most of an a cappella version of Maker of My Sorrow by Eliza Rickman (is clapping/stomping still allowed in an 'a cappella'? :) ). Missed the opening verse unfortunately...
Performed at Hotel Cafe in Hollywood on 2015-10-20 for her CD release party of the Footnotes for the Spring album.

[A good man is hard to find
What's his is yours and mine to throw, oh
He had an angry head
He had a heavy heart to hold poison in the spring]

With an orchid in his hand
And a shadow on his thumb
In the barrel of a gun
Me, I will find my love

Oh, oh - Lord knows where did he go
Keeper of my heart's joy, maker of my sorrow
Oh, oh - Lord knows where did he go
Keeper of my heart's joy, maker of my sorrow

A good man is hard to find
God knows how I have tried repose, oh
Give me my aching head
Give me my broken heart and cold a woman cannot hold

With a diamond on my hand
And the water on my tongue
In the barrel of a gun
Me, I resign my love

Oh, oh - Lord knows where did he go
Keeper of my heart's joy, maker of my sorrow
Oh, oh - Lord knows where did he go
Keeper of my heart's joy, maker of my sorrow

Dealer of my heavy hand
Healer of my wounded heart
Lord knows where did he go
Lord knows where did he go
Lord knows where did he go
Lord knows where did he go
Lord knows where did he go

Lindsey Stirling - Roundtable Rival @ The Greek Theatre Los Angeles 08-17-2015

rik1138 2015-08-20 | Lindsey Stirling performing Roundtable Rival at The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on 08-17-2015.
A truly epic performance, and you simply can not watch a show like this through a cell phone screen, so this was the only song I recorded... I made the sacrifice for this song, and tried to keep it focused on her as much as possible. Very difficult to do with someone who uses the ENTIRE stage for almost every song... :) (Sorry I missed the first few seconds...)

The Haden Triplets - Raining, Raining - The Grand Annex 2015-04-10

rik1138 2015-04-11 | The Haden Triplets sing Raining, Raining by Nick Lowe
Lyrics:
It's sunny and dry
Without a cloud in the sky
But here inside it's raining
Lovers go for a stroll
Dressed up in summery clothes
But in here it's cold and raining

It's raining so hard I wish it would stop
Rain, rain, raining

I heard the weatherman say
Put your umbrellas away
But for me it's always raining
Lovers strolling around
Without their feet on the ground
But in here it's bound to be raining

It's raining so hard how I wish it would stop
Rain, rain, raining

It's raining so hard how I wish it would stop
Rain, rain, raining

I said it's sunny and dry
Not a cloud in the sky
So tell me why should it be raining
There are lovers out back
Already getting on track
But I hear thunder crack when it's raining

It's raining so hard oh how I wish it would stop
Rain, rain, raining

It's raining so hard oh how I wish it would stop
Rain, rain, raining
Rain, rain, raining
Rain, rain, raining
Rain, rain, raining

The Haden Triplets - My Babys Gone - The Grand Annex 2015-04-10

rik1138 2015-04-11 | The Haden Triplets sing My Baby's Gone by Hazel Houser (originally performed by The Louvin Brothers)
Lyrics:
Hold back the rushing minutes
Make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine
Across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops
And hold back the sun
My world has ended
My baby's gone

The Milkman whistles softly
As he comes up to my door
The Mailman brings the letters by
Just like he did before
They seem so busy all day long
As though there's nothing wrong,
Don't they know the world has ended
My baby's gone

Hold back the rushing minutes
Make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine
Across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops
And hold back the sun
My world has ended
My baby's gone

I wake up sometimes in the night
And realize you're gone
And then I toss upon my bed
And wait for day to come
I try to tell my lonely heart
It must go on alone
But it cries the world has ended
My baby's gone

Hold back the rushing minutes
Make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine
Across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops
And hold back the sun
My world has ended
My baby's gone

My world has ended
My baby's gone

The Haden Triplets - Tiny Broken Heart - The Grand Annex 2015-04-10

rik1138 2015-04-11 | The Haden Triplets sing Tiny Broken Heart by The Louvin Brothers
Lyrics:
He was just a little farm lad so busy at play
In his little play house down by the gate
He stopped to watch a truck that was parking next door
At the home of his tiny playmate

Then he saw his Daddy watching too
As the man swiftly walked to the cottage door
He knew they were strangers that came from the town
Men he had never seen before

They soon were at their work as he heard his Daddy say
Our neighbors are moving today
Oh no he cried dear God don't let it be
They can't take my sweetheart away

I know Dad that you don't understand
How a heart so young could conceive a plan
I'm only seven now but it's just like you say
Daddy someday I'll be a man

The man who runs the farm where your playmate now lives
He told me it'd have to be this way
For winter time has come and their work is all done
So now they are moving away

Let us buy the farm so they can stay
And give them all my toys that dear Santa gave
And give them all my pennies in my little piggy bank
Pennies that my darling helped me save

Sara Melson - Turquoise Sky (Burning Man version)

rik1138 2014-11-17 | Sara Melson sings a Burning Man inspired version of Turquoise Sky in Center Camp.
(Wed, Aug 27th @ Burning Man 2014)
Lyrics:

You fell down to me
Right out of the great big blue
And suddenly no one else will do
You're inside my eyes

The moon was new
It was the first day of the burn
The very beginning
Of our big surprise

Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star's the one that I'm wishing on tonight
And wherever you go, so will I
'Cause we walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky

We stood underneath the towering Man
Wondered around on E, you held my hand
We danced and kissed until we couldn't stand
So high in this romantic magic land

Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star's the one that I'm wishing on tonight
And wherever you go, so will I
'Cause we walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky

Oh when the orange sun begins to paint the sky
The moon will rise like a diamond in your eyes
And let your mind fly all the way to me

Across the playa, riding free, you and me
Riding free, you and me
Through dust and wind

We walk below the same sky
So wherever you go, there am I
Wherever you go, there am I
