AOL Spinner premiered yesterday Robert Schwartzman's new video for "Funny Money", a song from his debut solo album "Double Capricorn", released last October.

"Funny Money" is a song about the financial crisis, written from the point of someone who's lost money in the stock market.   This is what Robert had to say to AOL Spinner about the song: "I had some investments that were struggling and I wanted to use the experience for something positive, to create something new. For me, writing music is an escape, it's my therapy and I'm usually inspired by unhappy events, i.e. a breakup, loss, longing, stock market crisis, etc."

Yesterday Robert Schwartzman from Rooney premiered the video for "Second Chances", the first single off his debut solo album "Double Capricorn", released last October.

The video was directed by Robert's childhood friend, Max Goldblatt, and features appearances by Brian Bell (of Weezer) and Robert's brother Jason Schwartzman: watch it now clicking on the frame.

To celebrate this premiere, Robert has a 30% off all merchandise on his website, including "Double Capricorn". All proceeds from the sale of this merchandise are being donated to the Tibetan Healing Fund, which helps woman and children in rural Tibet receive medical care.
