Dark and mesmerizing piece of jazzy atmospherics. Really love your vocal performance as always and the evocative feel of the music throughout. Masterful!

Really love this. And it seems to me much to the point, although this humble comment is probably just another hollow social media trick.

Oh, the existential dread in this is wonderful. Something about to happen.

What a voice.  Sometimes it's hard to get back to everyone we have followed but I'm glad I looked you back up.

Just love coming across your tracks, the originality gets me every time. I always get the impression that Leon Redbone is alive and well. Love it.

Live Reflexion#005

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on frozen ground
And I've never told you
How good it feels to grow old with you

The night is cold and hard as steel
But you and I will never feel
The silent night the shivering morning
This burning ember heats our home

Its all above
An icy wind. A burning sun
And I’ve never told you
How good it feels to come home to you

The night is ours. It’s short but sweet 
And desperate hours before the week
A daily grind a cold design
This burning ember heats our home

So cry out
What's wrong with the world?
Why can’t they see
Things like you and me?

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on golden ground
Have I ever told you
How good it feels to have grown old with you?

The night is hard and cold as steel 
But you and i will never feel
The hardened heart, the cold of shoulder
This burning ember heats our home

It's All Around

This track is my spontaneous improvised piano soundtrack to a 17 minute video of the earth viewed from the International Space Station. The footage starts in the mid Atlantic and ends over the Italian Alps.

NASA make available the imagery that the astronauts aboard the ISS shoot and one of their favourite things is creating timelapse sequences. Being timelapse the earth flies by about 20 times faster than real time which although spectacular is not particularly relaxing. I noticed that videos were available on youtube which were beautifully smooth and playing at near real time derived from these sequences using software incorporating AI motion extrapolation to slow down the original timelapse sequences. I decided to have a go at this myself and after a bit of experimentation the video sequence with the accompanying soundtrack linked above is the result.

ひとり刹那 / beauty in sadness
========================

風のささやく声が　通りすぎて　今

夏を連れていった
想い出に変えていった

ひとり刹那の　波に揺られ

いいことばかりじゃない
わるいことだけでもない


たたずむ　今日もあれ　見えない距離
やがてこの地上も　雪の音を　聴く


風のささやく声が　通りすぎて　今

夏を連れていった
想い出に変えていった

ひとり　音無し　路に置かれ

今年も　また　ひとつ
歳は　離れ



祈る言葉さえ　どこ吹く風
やがてこの地上も　雪の音だけ　聴く


風のささやく声が　通りすぎて　今

夏を連れていった
想い出に変えていった


ひとり刹那の　波に揺られ

いいことばかりじゃない
わるいことだけでもない

ひとり刹那 / beauty in sadness

@ The Garden Cafe ?

in
All has fallen silent - all has become quiet, 
Only for a brief instant 
Time stood still, 
Or at least it tried 
And into such a moment I dive...

1
Oh, sometimes
I would like to be able to see the world through your eyes.
The stars look so completely different from here and yet 
They are everywhere the same

ref
Oh, now I know not how to feel or what to be

2
Oh, sometimes
I miss a moment that I would have loved to have lived
And then I imagine that we could meet for a while, 
Sit in a garden cafe, have some darjeeling and scones 
With clotted cream and marmelade.
 
We can be silent for a bit and a bite, 
I know I would be quite attentive and listen carefully
Now and then I would certainly take a look 
And reassure myself: 
This isn’t really happening

ref
Oh no, now I know not how to feel nor what to be
And suddenly reality is so much different for me

3
Between the trees, with a pot on the teapot, 
Then the etagere with the sandwiches, 
cucumber and cress, 
The scones are of course warm and all is homemade 
And so very beautifully arranged and dressed.

Oh, sometimes
I wish i could travel thru space and time
Dreaming myself unto your side
And just sit with you and talk for a while…

ref+out
Oh no, now I know not how to feel nor what to be 
And i know that reality is so much different for me
Oh, so much different for me (2)

looking on the bright side of life

modern day

photos are memories I keep within my mind
stored in the basement in a crate I’ll never find
songs are the stories and the places I have been
authored before this mental knot I’m tangled in

modern day is here to stay
and all that was will fade away
heavens rain and hell will pay
our eyes are wet with tears

poets and prophets weave our words into their art
read in dramatic mien and spoken from their heart  
unseal the parchment let the words escape their cage
left with a book with seven hundred empty page

styles we made are old and frayed 
where all the past is filed away
a quill, a pen I’ll write the end
the sky is wet with ink

modern day is here to stay
and all that was will fade away
heavens rain and hell will pay
our eyes are wet with tears
modern day is bland and beige
remembrance of the golden age
a quill, a pen I’ll write the end
my heart is black as ink

Modern Day

Thumbing the nose at bad moods/anxiety. Who wins? The jury is not yet out. Just happy to have achieved a post, it has been a while.

What's that?
It's hollow inside
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
Yep, it's hollow inside
We've been tricked by social media
Hollow inside?
Keep it down or he might here you!
Yep, it's hollow inside
Hmm...

I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)
I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)

I just want to go back home
I just want to go back home
(I don't like it here)

What's that?
It's hollow inside
I just want to go back home
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
I just want to go back home 
It's hollow inside
(I don't like it here)

I just want to go back home
It's hollow inside
Can't believe there's nothing in there!
I just want to go back home
It's hollow inside
(I don't like it here)

My shift has ended and I'm at home.
I've ascended and my mind is free to roam.
I've no direction. Pick up my phone
and call you up 'cause I'm so tired of bein' alone.
Girl, I need you here all the time.
I always have since the day you became mine.
With you I have no fears. You ease my mind.
And every time I think of you, you send shivers down my spine.
I'm in love.
With you, I'm happy 
and exactly in the place I need to be.
I was made for you and you for me.
Yeah...it's cliche, but, hey, at least the phrase is free.
Girl, I need you here all the time.
I always have since the day you became mine.
With you I have no fears. You ease my mind.
And every time I think of you, you send shivers down my spine.
I'm in love.
My shift has ended and I'm at home.
I've ascended and my mind is free to roam.
I've no direction. Pick up my phone
and call you up 'cause I'm so tired of bein' alone.
Please come home.

Shivers
