Quite tense feeling despite slow pace of this track. Reading about the song background I did fully understand. [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

Un calme très agréable pour se détendre avec une voix si douce. Merci !

A bit chilly and a bit jazzy combination of vintage tones with modern 7 string guitar.

The hut

Day Dreaming

Since creation & the beginning of time we as a species have always sought more.
No matter where we are & how much we have we are lulled inII that false sense that the pastures on the other side of the river & beyond are more arable, lush & productive.
In doing so, we neglect II our own detriment, the treasures in front of us & the value they command.  It is in the simple things where we truly find grace.  - “anyI IV tea” ? (sugar, sweetener is optional)

CUP OF TEA

All Hands - Combstead / Robert  Grigg

Old song I wrote about the first and only time I talked to my dad on the phone.  It was tense and weird and resentments were running wild.  And nothing was really resolved except I guess a certain degree of acceptance maybe even forgiveness .   Realizing that anyone is capable of bad behavior like abandonment given their current mindset and level of maturity.

The Fall of Saigon asked to add a vocal to our tune and we welcomed him to do so. The original wasn’t written with vocals in mind so we figured it was going to be a tricky thing to do. The Fall of Saigon worked his descriptive lyrics in very well, capturing the spirit of being calm and optimistic in a hurricane.

Lyrics:

Le ciel, assoupi,
Lentement a noirci.
Se lève le vent,
Avant l'ouragan

Tu peux t'affoler.
Lentement perdre pied.
Mais peu importe le temps,
Tu restes sur l'estran.

Les arbres embrasés
S'effondrent à tes pieds.
Garde ton attention.

Les vagues déchainées
Veulent te submerger.
Elles crient même ton nom.

Elles veulent te submerger.
Te submerger.
Elles crient même ton nom.

Voilà, tout est passé.
Tes larmes ont séché.
Serein à présent,
Face à l'ouragan.

Le ciel, obscurci,
Maintenant, s'éclaircit.
Les arbres foudroyés,
Te servent de trophée.

~ 2022 Guillaume Pognon

Sky, asleep,
Slowly blackened.
The wind rises,
Before the hurricane

You can panic.
Slowly losing your footing.
But no matter the weather,
You stay on the foreshore.

Burning trees
Collapse at your feet.
Keep your attention.

The raging waves
Want to overwhelm you.
They even shout your name.

They want to overwhelm you.
Overwhelm you.
They even shout your name.

That's it, everything has passed.
Your tears have dried.
Serene now,
Facing the hurricane.

The sky, darkened,
Now clears up.
Shattered trees,
Serve as a trophy.

I don't want to destroy my first Demo-Upload. 
It is so sweet with the background laughing. So i create a new Version of this song.
Please check out the collab of this song with R-Soul. He lovingly added drums and backing vocals to this song.


Lyrics:
Sometimes things will happen, that can never be explained 
As by magic, they will stagger fall to the ground in pain.
Like a statue, anchored to its grounding 
They’ve lost the touch.

The stone you picked up at the shore on your holiday.
Has lain under water for many, many centuries
Moved only at low tide by the waves and the current.
now gets out of balance

And the things that fall off your shelf
Make me think about myself
How it must feel when there, where once was my place
All that's remains of me is this empty space
 
And while I fall off your shelf.
Pass all these things of beauty and grace
That you have placed with your skill for design and flair
As if between you and them would be a love affair

Everything arranged like a map of your mind 
mirrored on the wooden boards I left behind.
Each place was chosen with precission and care.
Some in a way that no one else would dare.
Some do not seem to fit together at all.
Without you, i feel so small

And when i reenter my place
you can see the tears that run down my face.
Of Joy and Fear 
I swore to you my dear
i will never leave this place here, without you again

PROGRAM NOTES
String Quartet No. 3 consists of five movements that explore “other voices,” either literally or figuratively. In a literal sense, this could mean speaking or singing in a way that is not considered normal or even out of one’s control. It could also mean speaking differently for a desired effect. Figuratively, “other voices” could mean a voice that is not one’s own. All five movements touch on these definitions in one way or another.

The first movement, Twist and Shout, uses musical patterns that sound like stuttering or someone who has a severe form of Tourette’s Syndrome. I use these sounds as a technical point of departure, incorporating jagged rhythms, erratic melodic patterns, and sudden volume shifts throughout the movement.

The second movement is entitled Poet Voice, and uses this style of reciting poems as a point of departure. In particular, this movement is based on a video of Louise Glück reading her poem “The Wild Iris,” which is included in a book of poems of the same name for which Glück won the Pulitzer Prize. Glück’s poem compares human suffering and finding a voice to the growth of a wild iris that makes a “passage from the other world” underground, despite the difficulty of breaking through. In the image of the wild iris, the explosion of color symbolizes new life. In this movement, I mimic Glück’s speech patterns and structure the movement around the sound of her voice and the content of her poem, essentially giving new life to her poetic reading. 

The third movement, Auction Chant, is inspired by North American auctioneering, which is a rapid-fire, rhythmic repetition of numbers and “filler words” spoken by auctioneers in the process of conducting an auction. This movement is also inspired by country fiddle music, which is a type of music often played in areas where auctioneering takes place.

In the fourth movement, Effects Pedal, I mimic sounds made by electronic effects pedals—and in particular, a vocal effects pedal, but without the use of actual electronic effects on the stringed instruments. I also use musical effects that sound somewhat like swallowing helium, which raises your voice when you inhale it, or sulfur hexafluoride, which lowers it.

The final movement is entitled Anthem. In this patriotic-sounding, yet slightly humorous movement, I weave together various sports themes and state songs from around the United States that are used to rile up fans at sports games.

String Quartet No. 3 was commissioned by The Indianapolis Quartet.
