Some great songs from some Fantastic Artist's/Bands and a few of my own.

AB Playlist 051 Part 2

This is a collaboration: The highly talented and groovy Californian Bruce @conover supplied the fab backing track which I cut up, rearranged and constructed a song over. We conversed throughout, whilst I added the melody, vocals, lyrics, all the brass and the trumpet cadenza, extra percussion, strings, re-arrangement, mix, et al, all inspired by the backtrack and discussions with BC.

Don’t Look Down (Don't Slow Up)

Down, down, down, down...

Don’t look down
You can see all you want from here
Don’t look down
It’s just your feet and a can of fear
And if you fall...
The water’s warmer on the far side of the bay

Don’t slow up
The world will never let you get off
Don’t slow up
It's just a spin on a fairground ride 	
And if you do...
The circus moves on to another little town

[Spoken]: “Run, rabbit run. Just keep on running, you don't have time to look back and see if everyone else is coming…”

Don't look down
[Trumpet cadenza]
Don’t cry out
Do you think you’ll just disappear?
And when you cry
The lights are going to shine so brightly on your face

Don’t look down
You can see all you need from right here
Don't slow up
They won't let you hide away for a day...

Don't look down
You can see all you want to hear
And if you do
The world will never let you get away again 

Don’t look down
Don't look down 	
You can see all you need from right here
Don’t slow up 		
They won’t let you hide away for a day
Don’t look down 	
Don’t slow up 		
Don’t cry out

THERE'S SOMEDAY'S IN YOUR LIFE
YOU WANNA RUN AWAY AND HIDE
THE FALLING SKY IS UPON YOU

I'M TRAVELING IN A LONELY RIDE
SOMETHINGS GONNA MAKE ME CRY
I WISH A LITTLE LONGER I HAD YOU

ALL THE BETTER DAY'S AHEAD
THE CLEARING SKY IT SAYS
EVERY SINGLE DAY IS ALL SO NEW

HAS SOMEONE EVER MADE A WISH FOR YOU
HAS SOMEONE EVER MADE A DAY BRAND NEW
ANYBODY TAKE YOUR HAND
TO A PROMISE LAND

EVERYTHING IS MADE FROM LOVE
EVERYONE DESERVES JUST ONCE
THE WISH INSIDE THAT COMES FROM YOU

I CAN HEAR A FALLING STAR
IT MAKE'S ME WONDER WHERE YOU ARE

SOMETHING THAT YOU'VE NEVER HAD

Letra  / Translated lyrics (inspired by Aldous Huxley's novel 'Island')

EL PÁJARO MINAH  /  THE MINAH BIRD

Me desperté  /  I woke up
de un sueño equivocado,  /  from a wrong dream,
tumbado entre palmeras,  /  lying among palm trees,
no estoy perdido ni encontrado.  /  I’m neither lost nor found.

Me siento bien,  /  I feel alright,
el sol me ha iluminado,  /  the sun has illuminated me,
la vida se estremece  /  life is shaking
y el egoísmo se ha agotado.  /  and selfishness is exhausted.

Pero cómo no lo pude ver?  /  But how couldn’t I see it?
No tenemos que ir ni que volver.  /  We don’t either have to go or come back.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que vivimos muy cerca del Edén.  /  that we live very near of Eden.

Es esto real?  /  Is this real?
Atrás quedan las ruinas de la ciudad.  /  Behind are left the ruins of the city.
No pierdas tu tiempo,  /  Don’t waste your time,
no sufras más.  /  don’t suffer anymore.

Cuando el ave abra sus alas  /  When the bird opens its wings
y el día se convierta en oscuridad,  /  and the day becomes darkness,
escucha su cantar,  /  listen to its singing,
deja de pensar y vive.  /  stop thinking and live.

Pero cómo no lo pude ver?  /  But how couldn’t I see it?
No tenemos que ir ni que volver.  /  We don’t either have to go or come back.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que vivimos muy cerca del Edén.  /  that we live very near of Eden.

El ritual del Mosha,  /  The ritual of Mosha,
luz del amor al alba,  /  light of love at dawn,
la plenitud del alma,  /  the fullness of the soul,
el privilegio de la vida  /  the privilege of life
como canta el Pájaro Minah  /  as the Minah Bird sings.

Una procesión de focos avanza,  /  A procession of lights goes onward,
rugir de tanques, ruido de armas.  /  tanks roar, noise of guns.
Un grito llama a la venganza  /  A shout claims for revenge
cuando un soldado dispara al Pájaro Minah.  /  when a soldier shoots the Minah Bird.

Tanques y tropas arrasan la ciudad.  /  Tanks and troops raze the city.
La estupidez humana es el arma más letal.  /  Human stupidity is the most lethal weapon.
Cien años de historia  /  A hundred years of history
en una noche ven su final.  /  in one night watch their end.

Cuando el ave cae al suelo  /  When the bird falls to the ground
y su sangre se convierte en hielo,  /  and its blood turns to ice,
y se apaga su cantar…  /  and its singing fades…
Jamás aprenderás si no quieres escuchar.  /  You’ll never learn if you don’t want to listen.

Pero cómo no lo pueden ver?  /  But how can’t they see it?
Hemos sido bendecidos al nacer.  /  We have been blessed at birth.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que la vida es sueño.  /  that life is dream.

Y no quiero despertar   /  And I don’t want to wake up
de este sueño equivocado.  /  from this wrong dream.
Me siento bien…  /  I feel alright …
Me siento bien…  /  I feel alright …

Mastered by Soundcloud Aug 2020

IF I WAS A BIRD
I COULD FLY THE WORLD
OR LIVE DOWN BY THE SEA
WHERE THE WIND IS FREE

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
WE'LL FIND A TREE
LIVE UP THERE AND SEE
THE WORLD BELOW

IF I WAS A FISH
I COULD SWIM THE SEA
I WOULD DIVE SO DEEP
SO NO ONE CATCH'S ME

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
WE'LL FIND A PLACE
AND LIVE OUR LIVE'S AWAY
FROM WHAT'S UP THERE
(break)
IF I WAS A CAT
I WOULD CLIMB THE TREE
OR CATCH YOU BY THE SEA
IT'S JUST A PART OF ME

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
DOWN BY THE SEA
A PLACE FOR YOU AND ME
WE LIVE BETWEEN,
I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
DOWN BY THE SEA
A PLACE FOR YOU AND ME
WE LIVE BETWEEN

'Mistakes' is nothing more or less than a simple love song. Melodic and a little bit edgy, just like Cindy and me. Alt rock meets dream pop. Thank you everyone for listening and supporting Para Lia!

lyrics:

i found you waiting in the backyard
of my selfmade house of cards
you are like the sunrise that breaks the dark

all my mistakes led me to you
we are riding with the past into something new

my broken road is filled with ghosts
and some of my steps left potholes in my soul
it's a fine line between love and pain
you're touching my mind, you keep me sane

all my mistakes led me to you
we are riding with the past into something new
it's long overdue

Okay so here's my BIG disclaimer - I wasn't put on this earth to be a singer. A few people here on Sound Cloud have suggested I challenge myself to see what I can do with a limited voice. This is the result and I thought it had a few worthy features once it gets going, hence posting.

Like the wasp that 
Takes a drink in the pool
With fortitude and fever
You stole me under your shawl
You rode your hips
And took me home
Resurrected senses
Rattled my bones
I held my nerve for you
Untied my sleeve
Unbuckled your shoe
I held my nerve for you
I held my nerve for you
   I held my nerve for you
Blood in the bricks
   I held my nerve for you
Blood in the mortar
   I held my nerve for you
Blood in the bricks
   I held my nerve for you
Blood in the mortar
   I held my nerve for you
Of this red-brick hall

   I held my nerve for you
   I held my nerve for you

Premier regard
quelque part
dans le passé
m'ont agressé
tes yeux noirs

Premier regard
revenant à ma mémoire
sans pitié
m'ont foudroyé
tes yeux noirs

Bulles façonnées par mes désirs
remontent à la surface
une à une sans prévenir

Bulles gonflées par mes souvenirs
éclatent à la surface
une à une et me font souffrir

Premier regard
magiquement noir
et sorcier
m'ont envoûté
tes yeux noirs

Les lames de fond l'écume acide
n'effacent la trace
indélébile de ton sourire

Sans larme je me morfonds baignant dans le vide
profond qui me glace
et alimente mes soupirs

Premier regard [Wypernet and Lukowig]

“Bottle of Whiskey”, my attempt at a drinking song, is one of a handful of pieces which paying (and not-so-paying) customers would actually request and sing along with.   It is easy to perform solo because of the simplicity and directness of the lyrics.   It is also easy to perform in a band, or impromptu with other musicians, because there is nothing complicated about the music.
     This version features only two instruments, a lap steel and an overdubbed rhythm guitar ... hence the count-in … which, made after the recording of the lap steel, sounded so odd and out of time that I couldn't resist keeping it.
     Another version, made a few years ago with Bill Kavanagh's Blues Affliction, can be found at: https://soundcloud.com/kcm069/01-bottle-of-whiskey

PS:  I know Gabriel is gonna “blow his trumpet” and not “ring his bell”, but I couldn't think of a suitable rhyme with “trumpet”, and no-one ever seemed to notice anyway.


Lyrics:
	bring me a bottle of whiskey, bring me a bottle of wine
        I’ll make my way to heaven some other time
        bring me a bottle of whiskey, bring me a bottle of wine
        let’s drink to my salvation one more time

	
	now I believe in heaven, and I believe in hell
        and I believe that judgment day is nigh
        and I believe that Gabriel is gonna ring his bell
        and I believe that pigs might fly

	so bring me a bottle of whiskey, bring me a bottle of wine
        I’ll make my way to heaven some other time
        bring me a bottle of whiskey, bring me a bottle of wine
        let’s drink to my salvation one more time

	
	I guess I should consider what the gospels say
        you know I know you know the righteous way
        but bring me a bottle of whiskey, bring me a bottle of wine
        I’ll make my way to heaven some other day

The Show........

As I get older -  try to stay sober - just long enough to realize it ain't over but it's getting colder - my knees getting weaker - I'm learning to stand all over again.
Seems that I've gone through - so many changes - what's left to conquer - am i getting so bored that i can't concentrate on the main goal - which nowadays is completely blurred
So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show
My eyes will stay focused mainly on the next task – just as long as up my sleeve I find my flask – and while I’m submerged in all these urges and it’s hard to remember just where I am.
Still I’m remiss to ask you just what I was saying cause that’s all my mind will allow me to handle at this time I’m fading slowly degrading – I fell off earth long ago  –So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that  i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show
Please breathe your light into my aura its black and it’s purple – it’s out of control the colors are scattered and all that has mattered through all these years has already been
taken away in the blink of just one eye – don’t be judging - the colors keep smudging – and you keep begrudging me cause I’m fading – it’s not understated when you say I’m a mess.
So leave me be with bottles and cans just let me reflect on the strange man that i am - we feel the conjecture in our tones - we're avoiding what we already know - If you look deeper beneath the layers of film in my eyes as they thicken every time i sip a sorrow away - it get's harder each day - putting on the show
