The intro and outro chat makes me feel like I am there listening live. Great vocal. Some lovely guitar and harmony parts. 43 years, same as me old self and my Mrs.

Beautiful mic'ing done for those acoustics.  Maybe DI.  Multi-layered tune that hits all of the marks for being a superb song.

Nice acoustic guitar - great song - good lyrics 🥰

Love this song - lovely "flow" - lovely guitar sound!

These songs a r4e all so solid. so glad to have found your music

Gorgeous song and performances, such a wonderful picture you paint and fabulous complimentary instrumentation and harmonies!

One Emoticon

Without patience without time
Can't sustain this can't unwind
One last time for old withdrawal 
Lash the mast it’s curtain call

How do I change?

Curse the failure curse the past
Curse the dirt that holds you back
It clings on tight the more you run
You are now your father’s son

How do I change?

Build my bridge of steal and stone
Childproof matches impulse prone
Antifreeze in something sweet
Pass the night in blissful sleep

How do I change?

How Do I Change?

Love...as a feeling you get when you go over Niagara Falls in a barrel?

That image was developed by simply approaching a collaboration (with UK musician, Anthony Gee - Liquid on mp3u) with the "start where you are" wisdom. What is more iconic for people working with a Canadian than Niagara Falls? 

Anthony had been exploring electronica using a midi keyboard, but had never written a rock tune. Ever ready for opportunities to help others, I asked Anthony for a keyboard progression as a foundation, since he was taking piano lessons at the time, and from that foundation the rock track would be built with the addition of lyrics, guitar, and harmonica. Eventually the song needed an instrumental, and that was where the real learning for Anthony took place - he had never learned to improvise, only to read music. Thinking out of the box and feeling the music is a little intimidating for some. So, many file-exchanges later, he had let his hair down enough to try that rock organ phrase that appears here. 

Here's to learning, to experimenting, to learning to give control over to others and to celebrating life-long learning. Who ever said you can't teach old dogs new tricks?

Lyrics:

I thought love was so simple,
But it turns out it's really complex,
With a lot of inuendo
There's body language
There's the subtle conversation,
And it's driving me mad
I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

I thought love was the cure that I needed
But it seems I was wrong
And there's no doubt about it
Love can be easy, like a lazy river
But when the current picks up
You better know how to paddle
I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

(instrumental)

I thought love was gonna take me to places
My heart hadn't seen, and I was anticipatin'
The joy and the bliss 
That I had found with your kissin'
Took me too far from shore
And now I'm self-destructin'

I feel I'm in a barrel going over a falls
In a barrel, going nowhere at all

Terry: lyrics, vocals, harmonica, guitar

In A Barrel (With Anthony Gee)

Happy 2023  Everyone!! We will be resuming out of hiatus properly soon, we just ran out of space on our SoundCloud profile. Here's a song that will be on the upcoming album Mulu Lagoon for you all to hear early, even before it's out on Bandcamp because it was in private mode for a long time and it's included in the space we had.

About this one: we wrote a happy song to lift the spirits. <3

Started in 2017, this song's code name was 'Light' for a long time. In 2022 we renamed it to 'Whimsical Escapade' as that's how the eccentric main lead (that Masha added last) made us feel.

Bassline: Rob
Intro and interval synth sound effect: Rob
All other synths: Masha

Update July 2023: We're finally back out of hiatus, and this song is now up on Bandcamp. As far as Soundcloud goes, all new releases will be going on our new account, @archmageband2 . See you there, and thanks for listening.

Whimsical Escapade

Whimsical Escapade - Instrumental

■概要(overview)
★バランス調整中
今日はうさ子さんとぴょん助さんのデートの日。
とても紳士的なぴょん助さん。
でも、うさ子さんは何だか不満がありそうです。
なぜなのでしょうか？
・・・・そんな感じの曲です。
うさ子さんの気持ちを想像して歌詞を書いてみました。う～ん、気難しい人！
※この歌詞はうさ子さんの感情です・・私ではありません！

soundcloudの波形が四角くなりました。ギターのせい？
無難なコード進行にしました。


★Balance adjustment in progress
Today is Usako and Pyonsuke's date.
Pyonsuke is a very gentleman.
However, Usako seems to be dissatisfied for some reason.
why is it?
・・・It's a song like that.
I wrote the lyrics imagining Usako's feelings. Hmm, grumpy person!
*These lyrics are Usako's feelings...not mine!

The soundcloud waveform is now square.Is it because of the guitar? 
I made a safe chord progression.

■歌詞
「スピードを上げて」
臆病な人じゃ　物足りないのよ
あなたさっきから安全なチョイスをしているわ
タ・イ・ク・ツ・ね！

優しい　言葉で　ごまかしている
紳士的な態度では　白々しいわ

車道側を歩いて見せたり
マニュアル通りのエスコートじゃ
タ・イ・ク・ツ

あなたのハートが見えないわ
もっと私　おどろかせてよ
むき出しのハート
ワイルドに踊って見せて
恋が始まるように
だけどあなたスピードが足りていないわ


制限速度　ぎりぎりを狙っている
あなたそれじゃ　まるで
結末が見えちゃう　ミステリー
タ・イ・ク・ツ・ね！

無難な言葉が　悲しくさせる
紳士的にされるほど
寂しくなるわ

ヘアスタイルにコメントくれたり
そういう事は　嬉しいけれど
ズ・レ・テ・ル

あなたの　ゲームを　終わらせて
もっと　私　困らせてみて
スペードのカード
ハートのクイーンが　救う
ような恋がしたいわ
だけどあなた　ダイヤに　執着してるわ
　
本当に大事なのは　スピードじゃなくて　行先だけど
待ちくたびれて　ほら　次の春がすぐ　そこに見えたから・・

あなたのハートが見えないわ
もっと私つかまえていて
四葉のクローバー
ワイルドにかじってみせて
恋が始まるように
だけど時間が無いわ　スピードを上げて


■ lyrics
"speed up"

A cowardly person is not enough
You've been making safe choices all along
Boring!

deceiving with kind words
Even your gentlemanly attitude feels artificial

Walking on the road side and showing
Your escort according to the manual is boring

i can't see your heart
Surprise me more
bare heart
I want you to dance wildly, so that love can begin
But you're not fast enough


I know you're aiming for the speed limit
But you, it's like a mystery with a known ending.
Boring!

Safe words make me sad
The more you treat me like a gentleman, the more I miss you

Comments on hairstyles, that kind of thing makes me happy
But that's not what I want

finish your own game
and bother me more
I want a love where the queen of hearts saves the card of spades
But you're obsessed with diamonds
　
What's really important is not the speed, but the destination
Tired of waiting, look, I could see the next spring right there...

i can't see your heart
hold me more
four leaf clover
let me bite wild
as love begins
But I don't have time Speed ​​up

Fire drops walls can’t  protect
Filthy water that will infect
Bleached bones in the midday sun
Shots rattle from a distant gun
Into the trailer single file
Another misplaced juvenile
Stench is strong as heads are bowed
Tightly packed no bags allowed

Dark waters to a better path
Slide away from the aftermath
Heard tales of a promised land
Can’t be far now close at hand.

Dipping under rusted wire
Leaving the frying pan for the fire
Slip down to the rugged shore
Face pressed to the salty floor
Push against the currents force
Whispering voices plot a course
Waves crashing as you start to slide
There’s no sign of the other side

Dark waters to a better path
Slide away from the aftermath
Heard tales of a promised land
Can’t be far now close at hand

Dirty bandage fallen slack.
Hands burnt from the last attack.
Biometrics have been destroyed.
The guard looks tired and seems annoyed.
Status can’t be verified
Documents won’t be supplied.
Ushered off to the holding cell.
Your latest twisted living hell.

Dark waters to a better path
Slide away from the aftermath
Heard tales of a promised land
Can’t be far now close at hand.

EARLY BRIGHT

PROMISED LAND

Amazed...by Grace!

A Celtic Blessing

Out on the porch, pickin' & grinnin' & drinking beer, waiting for the fiddle player and the mandolin guy. Neither one showed, so we did the best we could with the guitars. My daughter Julia helped out on the vocal harmonies.

This little ditty is my attempt to musically chronicle the 45 years my wife & I have been together.
