Mountain said, love, you’re so nearby 
And I see you each and every night 
The town across the river, looked up and smiled 
Mona Lisa in yellow stop lights 

And quietly the river flowed 

One day 
Some day 
I’m gonna wind my way down to you 
Next day 
Maybe next year 
I’ll move the ground and the trees to you, you’ll see 

River said, I’m by your side 
Won’t you stop for a drink 
The trickle down from you to me 
We’d be perfect, I think 

And the rain, it fell on high 

One day 
But not today 
I’m going to pull my way up to you 
Next day 
Maybe even next year 
I’ll send the sheep and the wolves to you 

Foot by inch 
Winter by spring 
The mountain is bitten away 
Rock and sand 
Fist and hand 
Time and water decay 

Mountain said, I melt, love 
Soon there’ll be nothing left of 

And the flood it rose and rose 

One day 
Some day 
I’m gonna work my way back to you 
Next year 
Maybe next year 
I’ll come back as bricks and mortar for 

One day 
Some day 
I’m gonna find my way back to you 
Next year 
Maybe the next year 
I know our story and it isn’t through

Mountain And River (feat. John Crossman)[FAWM 2023]

Lyrics

Verse 1
All those nights on the town
Seeing who we could meet
A fail, a fling, or maybe someone
To make your life complete

Chorus
For the loves I had
Hold tight the memories
For the love I have
The strength of family

Verse 2
Settle down. Build a life.
Fill it with love and light
Children, siblings, special friends
Hold them close; hold them tight

Bricks

you know i’m scared of open windows when I’m sitting up here
a helmet wouldn’t help me to get over this fear
my body wants to fly out but i’d smash against the ground
i’d strap myself against you but i don’t think you’re around

give me a parachute
or a pair of wings
place a great lake around
the bottom
or a life jacket around me, underneath and overtop

you know i’m scared of new beginnings cause i know they’ve gotta end
a record or a book or even meeting a new friend
it’s like my body is standing on a mountain really high
i’d cling against the cliff because i never liked goodbyes

Give Me A Parachute

Handsome People in Boring Situations

Hi Guys!

This is quite a strange one, I know. I tried to make a warm bell sound with my Nord Rack 2 and with her big sister, the Nord Lead 4R as well. The Nord 2 won. Again. Anyway, I used my old Slim Phatty for the creamy lead without quantizations. 

Used gears:
Moog Slim Phatty: the creamy lead impro
Roland JV-880 - vox
Korg TR Rack - pads (from 03:29)
Nord Rack 2 - Bells (all way long) and the crying lead (from 1:52)
LinnDrum - drumline (again) :)

You can download the lossless version from Bandcamp under the buy link.

Thank you for your great support!

THENO - ILL BEHAVIOUR

Created with the four track challenge, where four different people record a track each, post it to each other, and when all four tracks are complete, it's mixed and posted up.

A bit of a cheat here, because there are bass (Erick), drums (Patti), two guitars (me & Beto), and I then added my vocal.

By Hook Or By Crook Marv Finished Mix

A cover of the wonderful Talking Heads song - for giggles only...

Road To Nowhere

My latest track. I just finished recording the vocals this afternoon.

After All

Hobbyist songwriter.  

Most of my output is created during the FAWM and 50/90 songwriting challenges.  I write songs in many genres - eclectic musical taste is reflected in my songwriting - but tend to draw heavily on early 80s synthpop as my fallback influence.

I use Studio One as my DAW.



For the Love
