Giving a classic a different gentler feel. Nice.

I had a go at this song here-  sympathy for the devil (rolling stones). https://on.soundcloud.com/zLSgu

Great song, a real devilish mean version ;-)

just love this!! great version, that brings out the pure greatness of this song. Also, Lou Reed  vibes 😊

Cool rendition of this song. I’ve heard this song many times over the years but I feel like, listening to you - I’m actually hearing all the lyrics for the first time.

JIM ANDERS _ Rueckwaerts in die Zukunft (Homeless Disko Rmx)

Always one of my favorites from the Stones.  When I had the chance to "learn" it I jumped at the chance to get my take on it out there.  Peace!

Sympathy For The Devil R.Stones Cover

Facing some large trials and challenges has inspired me to do this piece.  Thinking of all those who are facing disappointments and  regrets in their lives.  This music came out of those honest feelings.

Lyrics;-
Long ago on a Japanese Island
The Mother Monkey
Decided to wash the
Dirt away from the sweet potato 
This time before they ate

The other families saw this
And started to do the same
Soon enough it spread
Through the Nation
To other Islands

Collective consciousness
Is a powerful thing
A force of Nature
We are connected

The 100th Monkey
The 100th Monkey
The 100th Monkey
Everything’s connected

And as the people 
Start to realise
They’ve been in Prison
They’ve been Hypnotised 

Collective consciousness
Is a powerful thing
A force of Nature
We are connected

The 100th Monkey
The 100th Monkey
The 100th Monkey
Everything’s connected

Here is a link to the youtube video for the song! https://youtu.be/sXd5B2iSWck
I looked back at the few notes I collected during this Photo Op's song development time-frame and concluded I did not have much to go on after a two year lapse.  The lyrics were not fully documented in my notebook. I must have been using lyric ideas and ad-libbing them into the song. I do not know my state of mind and wish I was better at capturing this closer to the song's conception point.

Life was still fairly locked down due to Covid, Trump was still in-office and the George Floyd protests were ongoing. The song was created without any direct outside musical influence driving the creative direction. This was me inside my studio starting from ground zero and evolving the song over the course of probably several weekends by playing around with sounds, rhythms and textures until a fuzzy shape of cohesion slowly emerged.

Listening back, I suspect, I smashed together two fairly divergent musical ideas. Bold move Dave and perhaps disastrous from a song gluing perspective. I like it anyway. Lyrics were influenced by what was going on around me and one of those things was a narcissist clutching a bible and clearing a peaceful protest with tear gas to enable his next photo op in front of the church.  A holy moment indeed. 

Lyrics
Photo Op
by David Husted

Dew drop dreams
Silly games
Buy some more stuff
Throw it away
Is it me?
Where did I go?
When we turn our backs
let them take it away.

They say it's gonna rain again
I don’t have an umbrella
They say its time to hate again
Photo ops and killing

Is it really so improbable?
State news and oligarchs selling fools
Make lies a game, and fear predominant 
Shake the base of our democracy

Photo Op

The Sanctuary

A very early track, in complete remake. There is an earlier remake on my profile too and a remix of that remake, but I never uploaded the original.

"redux" as in, rethunk and cut out some redundant verses.

closing track of the "Fall" EP
https://open.spotify.com/album/4UTItNTWHhAL0ASu6cm8rB

lyrics:

Manyman the missionary
his holy cross in hand
holding up his sacred book
he is fighting for his land

He passes the threshold of his thoughts
darkness conquering his mind
this confusion has only brought
a glance upon the other side

Manyman and his smiling mask
answering his divine task
could he conquer all that's ill?
Manyman's a man of will

and the missionary stumbles
and he's grabbing for a hold
all the words that once had built him
now make him choke upon his throat

Manyman projects away
cannot stand the light of day
reflects upon this failing grace
put Manyman back in his place

Manyman the world is open
Manyman it's there for you
do you know it's all you hoped for
there is nothing you can't do

Fall

over here ✨

Manyman (redux)

If this ain’t nice then what is ?  This was said by Kurt Vonneguts’ uncle at family gatherings according to Kurt in a YouTube video of one of his lectures about the shapes of stories . So it goes .

Joe Strummer made some of the best music I’ve ever heard .  Phenomenal songwriter musician who made each song his own.  He wrote a song titled “Ramshackle Day Parade” .  So it goes .

The vw bus bit is a high school memory.  Imagine The 70’s Show .  Old Bob is a ditty from long, long ago.

If this ain’t nice 

Do you remember full back seat 
Freshman September full back seat

Volkswagen micro bus
Sits upon four cinder blocks
Move the rear view mirror 
So I see you see me

Do you remember full back seat 
Freshman September full back seat 

Old Bob can’t find a job
And never will
Old Bob married Jill 
Poor Jill 

If this ain’t nice 
Then what is 
Living day after day
In the great
Ramshackle day parade

if this ain’t nice

Amarantos - Αμάραντος (GR trad cover)

Another track done with the remarkable https://soundcloud.com/nakedverse soon to be featured on an unfinished E.P. we are working on. you will always hear it here first. This is a song , a positive outlook about the future of humanity.
Lyrics:-
Are we in the wilderness
As we search for happiness
Is confusion on the menu
As we choose our daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

When life seems to take its toll
And you can't get on a roll
There's a million different people
Having other such upheaval
Who told you , consoled you
That this is all you get
It's time to , define you
Think what you'll create 

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

It's gonna be so good
Better than before

C'mon out the wilderness
You can find your happiness
With no confusion on the menu 
As you change your daily venues
We're bolder and older
And love is something else
The main thing's the right thing to do
It always helps

The twilight between times
Is something to embrace
Before change happens
And everything's replaced
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth
Bye Bye, Bye Bye Youth

Bye Bye Youth - Nakedverse & winkandwoo

“I Don’t Know How To Love (Anyone)”

She asked me if I loved her
If I ever could
My lust had made a promise
Beyond my will to make good

I pride myself as mindful
Being self-aware
But there’s always a place inside
That pride will spare
	And right then I saw it laid bare

I don’t know how to love anyone

No man is an island
But many plateau
They grow into tailored suits
But to men they never grow

I want for more than an island
But have I plateaued?
I look a full man in a suit
But this man has got a hole
	And, oh Lord, now I can’t not know

I don’t know how to love anyone

Should I strike out in anger?
Should I curl up and cry?
Should I lock my heart up?
Should I continue with my lie?

Oh, let me be a gentle man with a gentle dream
I want to learn to love someone who in turn loves me
Let me be selfless, caring, patient with my love
Let me learn to love someone

I’ve been living my life in anger
I’ve done nothing but curl and cry
I’ve never tried to give my heart up
I don’t want to continue with this lie

Oh, I want to be a gentle man with my gentle dream
I want to learn to love someone who in turn loves me
I want to be selfless, caring, patient with my love
I’m going to learn to love someone
