I listened to your songs again today. and there it was again ..... enthusiasm, well-being, still a first-class song.👍👍👍👍

@user-192027883 Thanks ever so much from us both! 🎶😊

Awesome as always Beautiful Vocals and Sanders playing is incredibly warm and flowing !!

Love that insistent riff pushing behind the more open vocal phrasing, great writing.

Impressive mood & vocals. Great collab again :)

Very nice vocals and cool guitar riffs 👍🏼😎

We’ve made some lovely tracks so wanted to put them together. ❤️🎶

Wane of Summer and Annie Smart songs.

Remix and re-invention of an earlier track from many years ago. Messier 83 (see the image), also known as the Southern Pinwheel Galaxy, contains structures within structures. The images are stunning. This track has interlocking aspects, hence the title.

The Ferns of M83

I’ve somehow locked myself outside, 
And my phone just died
After I read the text you sent me, 
But before i could reply

And then It began to rain, 
so naturally I missed the train
And it’s the last one till the morning, 
so i guess i f*ck*d things up again

But I’ll make it up to you 
This time I will see it through
I’ll crawl down the street for you
 I’ll do anything i have to do

If I can make it there by morning 
Before your tender heart aches
If i can see your porch light burning
If i can beat the break of day

Then i will can find a way to show you
then i will can find the words to say
How I would move the mountains for you 
I love you more and more each day

Yeah I know it seems so strange 
Walking in the pouring rain
In the middle of the boulevard, 
and i am not quite sure where i am

Suddenly the darkest night 
Begins to glow a softer gray
And I can see your house is shining  
Like a beacon far away

Now i see you run outside 
And your arms are open wide
And whatever came before this moment 
Is lost inside your eyes

If I Can Make It There By Morning

Between the Worlds

In the Balance

So Many Years (Remix)

Cast of Characters:

The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl -- vocals, lyrics, Ovation acoustic guitar, and composition
J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ and upright piano, and JJ's angels (voice synth)
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – Warwick fretless four-string bass and Collings mandolin
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark –- VST fiddle
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender Stratocaster electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — Earle Scruggs custom banjo, production, mix, and mastering

This is the latest in our series of songs Carl has written about us. Being as both Tez, a lifelong, and to a lesser degree, Carl are Manchester United fans, Carl siezed on the opportunity to celebrate their shared fandom. Although the lyrics are a little inscrutable to us Americans, we love that football (soccer) fans from across the pond will know exactly what he's talking about. 
  Carl wrote this song on his acoustic guitar, and upon sharing it with us, we weren't sure as to the direction we wanted to take it. JJ threw down first, adding his good-time-sounding upright piano and strikingly beautiful organ to the mix first. He also added the subtle human voice choral synth you hear throughout. Enchanted with Carl's composition, Josh next added his bass and mandolin both in the same recording session, without even closing his DAW. Mark was in right after, adding his friendly fiddle solo as well as fiddle fills throughout. Being as the song is about him, Tez came along shortly after and added the tuneful intro and outro on his guitar. Then, as it was just about to sit for a while, Ken added his very tasteful, perfect drums to the mix, thus completing the rhythm section. 
  Before we put a bow on it, though, Stephen made it back from his week in the Colorado wilderness in time to add his magical banjo to the mix. Speaking of mixes, now it was time for one, and we turned it over to him, our in house pro, to do the honors.
  We all really enjoyed working on this one. It is an example of Eclectic Collective taking one of Carls songs and having our way with it. Always a team effort getting it over the line, but we always manage to do it. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Division Two Champs, '75
Small consolation for '74 cries
Fan wow land psyched
True Red Devil in this life

We fell to Leeds
Last Division 1
We had the Irish
Man, I followed them
McGrath didn't train
A different breed
Golden era
Boozed up greats as seed

Then, we mostly won
But still, these moments to memories shone
Keane's end at Juventus
His team's power won
Beast perseverance
2-3 semi so they march on

Teddy & Ole
Broken Bayern lines
Videos with no YouTube
In sport mad mind

Great from great, Cantona
Flying curve ball martial artist
Old Leeds leech
A la French finest

Man Utd before Glazier fud
Old Trafford dreams
Red Devil blood
A fan forever no matter loss
Good grinding Fergie
Our hairdryer boss

True Red Devil
Hughesy's volleys
Arsenal disheveled
Good Giggsy speed
End to end
Back of the net
Great teen we get
Front of our dreams

True Red Devil
Scars from Aguero
And Barce's better
New cycles please
We've been Malcolmed
Bought like shop
These greedy Glaziers fucking up
Our theatre of dreams

If only for Fergie time
We'd be doing just fine

Lyrics:

Dudurududu
So many plans were made
Dudurududu
A lot that was ment to happen
Dudurududu
But it didn't turn out as you thought
Dudurududu
Long time ahead ,became too short

What may feel right to you today
May feel wrong to you tomorrow
What makes you laugh at this moment
Can suddenly turn into sorrow

Dudurududu
A direction was chosen
Dudurududu
It was supposed to go straight ahead
Dudurududu
But something got in the way
Dudurududu
A u-turn suddenly appeared

What may feel right to you today
May feel wrong to you tomorrow
What makes you laugh at this moment
Can suddenly turn into sorrow

Dudurududu
Dudurududu

What's the point of making all these plans
If you're no longer there to enjoy them?
You know about today
But nothing about tomorrow

What may feel right to you today
May feel wrong to you tomorrow
What makes you laugh at this moment
Can suddenly turn into sorrow...

Was a pleasure to sing on this amazing track by @wane-of-summer
Thank you for having me! 🙂❤️

You could invade my mind
I might let you in
If you invade my mind
I might keep you...mmm

And our deepest darkest thoughts
Would be yours for the taking
I’m ready 
I’m ready
For your invasion...

You could invade my soul
Wouldn’t stop you...no..
If I invade your mind
You would know...

Chorus

I’m ready
I’m ready for you...for you

For you.....

SMALL TALK (by Wane Of Summer and Annie Smart)

Was lovely to add a third track to our collection of synthpop trips! So lovely to sing on the wonderful music of @wane-of-summer. ❤️🙂

Eye to eye
Don’t waste no time
It’s now or never...

Let’s get straight to the point
Time is rolling by
We’ll be gone without a trace
I’ll remember this place 
With you...

Hand to hand
Don’t let go
It’s now or never...

Chorus

I’ll remember you...
Let’s remember this night...

NOW OR NEVER (Wane of Summer and Annie Smart)

Was so amazing to sing on this gorgeous track by the lovely @wane-of-summer   ❤️🎶❤️

You were floating
Drifting into space
Try to hold your hand, oh...
You were dreaming
Dreaming far away
Tried to catch your eye

All I’ve been trying to do
Is save you
Is save you

I was drowning
Staring into space
You held the light
I was dreaming
Under different stars
I could see the light

All you’ve been trying to do
Is save me
Is save me

Save me....

Was so lovely to sing on our 10th Synthpop track by the amazing @wane-of-summer  Thank you, Sander for these beautiful 3d tracks to create with!  Visit his page for more gorgeous music! 🙂❤️🎵

Lyrics. 

Time goes so slowly when you’re not here
Time goes so slowly when you’re not near

I’ll wear my smile if you want me to
I’ll wear my smile if you need me to

Here comes my bravest face
Here comes my smile
Same time and same old place
Here comes my bravest face

Ain’t got no patience when I think of you
I count the hours when I think of you 

I’ll wear my smile if you want me to
I’ll wear my smile if you need me to 

Chorus

I’ll wear it well....for you.
