WOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!! EXCELLENT Y'ALL !!!! MUCH LOVE TO Y'ALL!!

THE BRIDGE OF THE MAGPIES

It once happened in the Far East
the sad story of an arduous love
that still lasts since it never went out
that not even the sky could separate him

Princess Vega
he wove to his loom
colored tapestries
of sunrise and sunset
even the clouds pushed
 from the breath of the wind
they paused to admire his talent


It was on a summer evening that tired of work
he stretched out by the stream of his imperial garden
from the other bank came a celestial sound
and intrigued, she dived to cross the river
in the dark he saw a silhouette
lying down he played the flute
I introduce myself as Altair
he was the guardian of the oxen

and there was no embarrassment or doubt
that eye to eye passed all night
he played her melodies made of sugar
she sang to her like a nightingale
even if unknown they already belonged to each other
eye to eye passed all night
under the stars the forest their bed
it was on that silver night that they fell in love
and dawn was already appearing
the princess returned
in its imperial castle
with his Altair inside the heart
and every night he came back
to cross that river
and therefore the step was short
who led them to the altar

and they were so happy
to neglect the work
she no longer wove tapestries
he didn't look at the beasts

the cobwebs to the loom
and the oxen to invade the land
and the mistake was imminent
in that apparent calm

an ox left to his fate
I enter the atrium of the building
and step by step
that the crime took place

the ox entered the queen mother's chamber
and with a flick of her tail she dropped her hair pins
the queen was angry
picked up a pin
and drew a line across the sky
along the river that ran alongside the palace
this gesture created a great and thunderous silver river in the sky
that the queen called the milky way
and it was thus that he separated the young lovers
on opposite banks of the river

Princess Vega cried from morning to evening
he resumed weaving his canvases

Altair resumed his pasture but I never play his flute again.

It then happens that the King
 pitied by his daughter's despair
decided that one day a year,
on the seventh day of the seventh month
if the princess would find a way
to cross that river
he could have met his beloved


The Weaver Princess
 he then called to his aid
all the magpies in the world
 who flew in from the earth and formed a bridge
across the vast and deep Silver River
jumped on their backs
across the milky way
and the seventh day of the seventh month passed
together with her beloved.
And this happened again, and then again and again it happens today
the two expect
convinced that it is worth it
and count the days in unison
to meet that day, every year

The burning eternal question - do you love me?
Do you love me, you love me?
Well so do people who sell ice-cream
They'll say anything, they think I'd like to hear

Do yo love me like they do?

Hey girl, you better watch out
cos people care not for what you may
Though it's written on their faces
They hide behind sweet words

Anybody for ice-cream (or tennis)?
(a nod to @nic_nic_nic: Nic for tennis suggestion)

Hey Ho

somewhat out of my comfort zone but great fun to do. 
Listening in stereo is recommended, in mono if you like it straight up without the whoosh ;)

This is a little bit like the Everly Brothers version of Lucille but a bit heavier. I have used mostly the original lyrics as well as some in Everly brothers version and half a line of my own.

PS I love Little Richard's original version...Albert Collins and Little Richard wrote the song in 1956. It was recorded on 30th July 1956. Happy 67th birthday Lucille!

Words

Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
No no no no no Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothing to you but I love you still

Lucille, please, come back where you belong
Lucille, please, come back where you belong
I've been good to you, baby, please don't leave me alone

When I woke up this morning, Lucille was not in sight
I asked my friends about her but all their lips were tight

Lucille, please, come back where you belong
I've been good to you, baby, please, don't leave me alone

Break

When I woke up this morning, you were not in sight
I asked my friends about you but you'd taken off that night

Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothing to you but I love you still

Lucille, please, come back where you belong
Lucille, please, come back where you belong
I've been good to you, baby, please, don't leave me alone

poem / copyright jo richter

pitch black holes in my back pockets
saturn rings from lack of sleep
earth transformer, leg-end sockets
dryadic dreams piled in a heap

scanning night to knock for shelter
astral pockmarks, plasma maze
timid smell of tepid data
where blue cyborg llamas graze

and the counters counting, counting
within the sentinence that stoops
eye of ra still weeps, creating
generating mortal loops
just this I moves on, trespassing
where the primal vulture swoops

Trespassing ( A Poem written by Jo Richter of Sonic Structure and Silent Stretches)

I wrote the music to Nordic in 2019, for 'my' band Pelerin blue. It was performed once just before the pandemic hit. It was the first, and only time so far, that I've played my bouzouki in front of an audience. I'm hoping that we can resurrect at least the core of the band soon. In anticipation I've made this instrumental version of the track. I hope to be able to be able to record a live instruments with Tim Mahonney and myself, and entice the fantastic singer, Isabelle Hautefort to sing her lyrics for the song.

For Lizzie, a dear friend who makes me chuckle!

Chasing shadows going round in circles,
losing me direction same goes for my mind,
I was wondering if you could spare me a little of your time?

They say...
will you have a go at that for me possibly do this,
shall I dance the hokey cokey whilst they extract the piss,
I was wondering if you could spare me a little of your time?
It helps to see you every once in a while,
cause you brighten up my day,
and lighten my load with your.........smile.

Doing this online electronic music production course, and this is the first track coming out of it. The basic adventure was to avoid playing real instruments.

Apologies that I haven't been active here for some time, needed a break and now this course keeps me busy. I know that I have missed a truckload of cool songs, but I will catch up with them soon, promise!
