Another piano challenge.
This time it's the cover of Martha Mier's "Red Rose Rendezvous (Jazz Waltz)".
I still have a bit of a cracked sound.

(Verse 1)
The battle cries out, a melody of steel
The air is thick with smoke, the scent of death you smell
A warrior's heart beats strong, a fire in his heart
He fights with fury, and for treasures to bring home

(Chorus)
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise, where heroes never die
A feast of mead and laughter, beneath a sky of gold and fire
They raise their horns, and sing out loud
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise, where legends never die

(Verse 2)
The battlefield is silent, the smoke begins to clear
The fallen lie in slumber, their spirits filled with joy
For they have earned their place, around the table in Odin's hall
Where warriors gather, and their stories will never die

(Chorus)
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise
A feast of mead and laughter, beneath a sky of gold and fire
They raise their horns, and sing out loud
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise, where legends never die

(SOLO)

(Chorus)
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise
A feast of mead and laughter, beneath a sky of gold and fire
They raise their horns, and sing out loud
Valhalla, a warrior's paradise, where legends never die


Valhalla, a warrior's paradise, where legends never die

I had a holiday in Sweden in August and went on a steam train.  This is what it felt like to me.

"Not all who wander are lost." -- J.R.R. Tolkien

We all wander at one time or another.  Sometimes, it leads us to wonderful discoveries.  At other times, it can take us away from the things and people in life that are truly important.  One thing is certain:  Wandering almost always teaches us something.

Splitz (2021) Anthology CD2 Track 04

Une sorte d'hymne à Blaise Cendrars, aux artistes en général, au rêves de voyage, à l'Ukraine libérée. Bien sûr c'est trop long, mais c'est un rêve, et dans un rêve, on ne commande rien, ni les images, ni la musique, ni la durée.
PAROLES
Aux aventuriers du rêve,
À ceux qui arpentent sans trêve
 Les territoires de la beauté
Avec Cendrars
Résonne toujours la voix de la petite Jeanne : 
« Blaise, dis-moi, sommes-nous loin de Montmartre ? »
 Et la statue aux yeux d’albâtre 
 Comment fait-elle ? comment fait-elle ?
Sa vie vibrante sous le plâtre,
 Sa main glissant sous l’oreiller
 Dans l’ombre bleue de l’atelier ? 
 Dis-moi Cendrars,
 Comment fait l’art ? 
 Et l’Or du Rhin ? et l’anneau d’or ?
 - Je n’en sais rien.
Au creux de tes reins je m’endors
Je m’endors.
Aux aventuriers du rêve,
A tous ceux qui arpentent sans trêve
Les territoires de la beauté,
 Qui y travaillent sans compter,
Tu leur envoies tes baisers,
Tes 400 coups, ton Pierrot le Fou.
Tout ce qui compte ne compte pas
Aux yeux des marchandes de sable ;
 Mais nous on garde vos trésors,
 L’enfance aux yeux d’or,
L’enfance aux yeux d’or.
Billes d’agathe, pêcheurs de perles,
Os de seiche, plumes de merle,
 Les 400 coups, Pierrot le Fou.
Dans le wagon Méliès,
 Il y a Narciso Yepes, 
Il joue à nos « Jeux Interdits » ;
 Moi je reste au pied du lit ;
Nous on s’en fout, dans le train, nous,
 On s’endort,
Le Transsibérien s’arrête à Kiev,
On le donne à l’Ukraine libérée,
 A tous nos rêves éveillés,
 A tous ceux qui arpentent sans trêve
 Les territoires de la beauté
Avec la voix de Jeanne !
 « Blaise, dis-moi, on est loin de Montmartre ? »
 Blaise, dis-moi, et la statue d’albâtre,
 Comment fait-elle ? comment fait-elle ?
La vie vibrante sous le plâtre,
 La main glissant sous l’oreiller,
 Dans l’ombre bleue de l’atelier ? 
 Comment fait-elle ?- Je n’en sais rien.
 Et dans le Transsibérien
 Au creux de tes reins,
 On s’endort.
 On rêve à l’oiseau rare
 À Blaise Cendrars 
‘Dis Blaise, sommes-nous loin de Montmartre ? »

DEBUT ALBUM RELEASED ON SEJA/CANDY BOMBER MUSIC: https://sejarecords.bandcamp.com/album/gig-economy
Formerly known as The Inconsistent Jukebox. I have been exclusively recording as m1nk with Erika Bach (lola demo) for the past 4 years and put the TIJ stuff on hold for a while. In between the next m1nk release we are both releasing solo material. Watch this space for previews of the new stuff.
New single out 31st October -  'SIng Me Something SInister'. Taken from the forthcoming debut solo album 'Gig Economy'. WATCH VIDEO HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4ZhwYgG6M8
You can also follow my current and future work with Erika Bach (as m1nk) here: https://soundcloud.com/m1nk and http://www.m1nk.com

I've had the very good fortune and honour to associate my own music here on SC with some truly astounding  and generous graphic & surrealist artists: Smiler Street Art (London) https://www.facebook.com/smilerstreetart/, Eric Lacombe (France) http://www.ericlacombe.com/home.php, Belgian surrealists Mothmeister https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/mothmeister. Please do look at their work, you won't be disappointed. Stay here and listen a while first though.
I'm also finding other amazing stuff here on Soundcloud that I would have never heard elsewhere, a few of them I've had the pleasure to collaborate with.: Heidi Harris, Konokunok, Narcisse Noyé, Dolll, Richard Devine, Joaquin Mendoza, Vasco Morais, Keldari Station, Musicaserj, & Cathrinta, Luciole Langevine, Renaud Deback, Lola Demo, Anda Volley, Ang Kerfoot, Dana Dau, Chris Pendergraft, Faerytale and many more. I could go on (and usually do). Check them out, you won't hear their like in many other places. 
Also look out for my playlists here on Soundcloud which feature other artists: 'Favourites From The Cloud', 'Soundscapes'  and 'The Siren, She Sings' (which also has a blog). You may even be in one of them.

Thanks to Isaac for my (full) name. Check out his eerie upload, https://soundcloud.com/aminimalvirus/inconsistent-jukebox. Genius. It crept up on me late one night (one of those tracks that you didn't select but came on in someone else's stream) and I genuinely thought I was going mental. When you hear it you'll see what I mean.
