In 2021 there were 2,755 billionaires in the world. They are guilty of committing ECOCIDE - yet they continue to choose profit over battling climate change.

Billionaires are the leading cause of climate change. More than 70% of global emissions come from just 100 companies as stated by the Carbon Majors Report.

Amazon alone emitted 61 million metric tons of carbon dioxide in 2020 - the equivalent of 16 coal-burning power plants running for a year.

Some of America’s most prominent companies, including Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, and Disney are backing business and lobbying groups that are fighting landmark climate legislation despite their promises to combat the climate crisis.

Time is running short - THERE IS NO PLANET B


                             Billionaires Are Destroying The Planet

Billionaires are destroying the planet
just so they can make a profit
pollution is killing Dear Mother Nature
melting - wiping out all our glaciers.

CHORUS
Greta Greta Greta U Da Man
you're the woman with a plan
Greta Greta Greta U Da Man
you're the woman with a plan.

Heat waves are killing more and more people
we keep on burning more and more diesel
you don't have to be a rocket scientist
to know why fires destroy our forests.
Politicians are climate change deniers
in the meantime, our homes are on fire
the air we breathe smell like hell
thanks to the coal and oil cartels.

CHORUS

MONOLOGUE

Rising sea levels from China to California
causing devastation - Hallelujah
writings on the wall with plastic in our seas
welcome to the world of climate refugees.
Every year when it's hurricane season
the rains and floods are beyond reason
subways flooding thanks to carbon emissions
now our planet is in remission!

Billionaires are destroying the planet
Billionaires are destroying the planet

So start listening to the children
and heed the words of Mr. Bob Dylan
or it's a "Hard Reigns Gonna Fall"
your need for greed will be our downfall.

CHORUS

Billionaires are destroying the planet
Billionaires are destroying the planet

Billionaires Are Destroying The Planet

fumbling improv. as per : )  6 yrs ago.
take a deep breath

in the water ～ in the air

'f I were you (instrumental)

pandemonium

A song about the northern lights and their mysterious appearance in unusual circumstances a long, long time ago...

I hear the cries of winter I cant stand to see the sight
Like waves they came crashing but now lie  still there in the night

Its far too late for many lying on once peaceful land
I wonder who if any fell directly by my hand

The morning brings a shiver as I lay behind the  wall
But I cant stay much longer as I hear the fallen call.

Shadows cast by the setting sun another days work is done
Close my eyes but I can't sleep through the long cold night

I feel the light burning in my eyes as I gaze at the distant sky
All around me I can see the northern lights.

TurnYouOnLoveBomb

On a cool clear summer night
Someone said to me
Try a little of this my friend
And set your spirit free

Stopped and thought about it
For a second maybe two
And said ah what the hell now
What’ve I got to lose
And they said

Sit on back now and enjoy the show
Let me turn you

On… love bomb
Turn you on…
To loving
Yea

Break

You are the centre
The beginning and the end
This place in time will never be again
May you live forever in love

Break

Now I’m riding down the highway
Feeling oh so fine
And in part I owe it to the one that turned me on that time
So if you’re feeling lucky, keen to learn a thing or two
You know I’m more than happy to do the same for you

Just sit on back now and enjoy the show
Let me turn you

On… love bomb
Turn you on…
To loving
To loving

Well alright
You got it
Let’s go 
Now

I don’t believe in luck but I do feel very privileged to have two angels looking after me. My wife Jo and my daughter Charlotte have saved my life on three occasions keeping me alive until the ambulance arrived. I have been told that without their interventions I would not have survived.

Both have chosen not to believe in any God or indeed any outside power that can change our lives.  There may be many of you who disagree but these are the choices we make - each of us believes what we feel is best for us.  If a belief in a higher being helps give anyone’s life more meaning and guides them through each day, we have no argument with that at all.   

I think of Jo and Charlotte as my Atheist Angels.  The care they have given me during these close-to-death experiences shows what beautiful souls they are, always there for me at the time of greatest need.   

On every occasion, there were times when I truly thought that I was drawing my last breath, my existence disappearing as they fought to save me and all I could think of at the time was that, barring my brother Gal, all of my closest male antecedents died when they were just 63.  I was the same age during these episodes and I really didn’t want my name added to the sequence.  My Atheist Angels made sure that it wasn't.

Now I am 67, a proud grandfather, still around to enjoy the experience of watching my family thrive and grow.  There is another grandchild on the way later on this year and the more time I can spend with the love of my life Jo, the better and although my illness is not exactly how I planned things, I still try to enjoy every extra moment.

The continuation of ‘Cripple Club’ with Gal and Hans has been another unexpected bonus and we plan to keep going as long as we can. Here’s to the next song - I do hope you enjoy this one.   (Terry Reeves)

The whisper of a distance voice
Two angels arriving single choice
Keep breathing slow not too much
Your not leaving just stay in touch 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

A feeling of desperate final breath
Lonely moment no time to caress 
Fighting every 63rd dying thought
Surviving each gulp of air caught 

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes I’m floating floating away

Has time arrived to lay down still
Not accepted by two who really feel
More than one chance to live again
The Angels alongside helping pain

I’m floating yes I’m floating yes l’m floating floating away

Fight to avoid final thought of death
A fading light continues to suggest
Only time decides what, when and how
My Atheist Angels this time will not allow

I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating, I’m floating 
I’m floating, yes I’m floating, yes I’m floating,
Floating to stay……………………..cont

MY ATHEIST ANGELS - CRIPPLE CLUB

So this was going to be a nineties throwback petshop boys style piece. I could never get it right, it's such a nihilistic piece. This is a very rough version, two takes on the piano, and a few takes on the vocal.

Let’s go, just you and I, 
while the world still dreams below the starry sky
Down the lonely street into an empty town 
From our mindless sleep on to Hallowed ground

I always thought there would be time
but i watched it slip away before my eyes
Yet we had time for our goodbyes
Looking out, at the edge of the demise

Without you here, what would I be?
Within your arms, you comfort me
You keep me close, 
you set me free!

It doesn’t end with a whimper or a bang, 
We just slowly fade to black from where we came
It doesn’t end in flood or fire,
It all just simply falls to our desire

will there ever be another?

A Love Song From The End Of The World

Le Gout Des Libertés

After a gorgeous Easter long weekend here, my thoughts have turned to summer. Not quite there yet, but enough warmth to think of gardens, colour and...the arrival of ominous smog and haze of urban centers. I relocated from the urban sprawl of what we called "The Big Smoke" of the Toronto area.  I think, the threat of air pollution, especially in the sweltering heat of summer, always makes me mindful of the thin line and tipping point (1.5 degrees C) of global warming. The summer of 2023 left much of North America reeling from the haze of smoke from hundreds of wildfires in Canada's north.Wearing masks to protect, not from Covid, from PM (particulate Matter of 2.5 in Ontario! Toronto was the worst for particulate matter in the world in June 2023)

Haze
    I love the haze of summer … ah
    1) Short path to the shore
    Secret place, we’ve been before
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Quiet time for you and me
    On the beach near to the sea
    A little piece of heaven no one knows
    Ooh – ah…This where the buck stops (x4)
    EVERYBODY’S DREAMING…OF MORE SUNNY DAYS
    BUT CAN’T YOU SEE WE’RE STEAMING …IN THE HAZE?
    2) How long can it last
    Relegated to the past
    Something once forgotten never found
    Just take a little care
    I want to feel it’s always there
    Something once forgotten never found
    Ooh – ah    (x12) 
    (INST)  
    (CHORUS)
    3) Warm days, running dry
    Changing times, a leaden sky
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Radiation, in the sand       
    A lasting legend, to our land     
    Is there a piece of heaven no one knows?
    Ha…ya…ya…ze!  (x3)
    (CHORUS)
    I loved the haze of summer …
