UNDERSTANDING THE FOG RIGHT NOW

(Written by Terry Reeves)
Terry Reeves: Lead Vocal

Arkestar: Horns & Horn Arrangement

Arrangement, Production & Final Mix by Gordon Midgley

In case you’re wondering why the track is called what it is then I cannot tell a lie. it’s all Gordon’s fault.  I was having an email conversation with him about life, the universe and everything when, for no reason I could easily glean at the time, he said “I’ve got to go and walk to Asda in the fog". I wasn’t sure if he meant he could only walk to Asda if there was fog or that he just needed a walk in the fog and Asda was as welcoming a place to go as anywhere else or, more simply, that he had to get some groceries and Asda was the nearest and most convenient place to go in such inclement weather. Whatever the reason, my immediate thought was “What a great title for a song…”.

There’s certainly no shortage of songs about Covid-19 but I just couldn’t resist the temptation Gord had inadvertently sent my way to vent some of my Covid frustrations.  If you chance to read the lyrics and aren’t from the UK, I should explain that all of the words in capital letters are the names of UK supermarket chain stores.  You may also be wondering why I mentioned the Royal Yacht so, for those of you that hadn’t heard, our wonderful government, in the midst of the pandemic and the financial constraints it was placing on the country, announced that it was commissioning the building of a new one at a cost of somewhere around 200 million pounds.  Isn’t it good to know they have their fingers firmly on the pulse of public spending at times like these?

For some time now, Gal and myself have wanted to work on a track with both Gord and Arkestar and for many reasons, this particular song seemed to lend itself really well to the idea.  We’d therefore both like to thank them for lending their unrelentingly brilliant skills and commitment to the entire project and for making it such a complete pleasure to work on.  We certainly had more fun than we’d a right to. Thanks again for listening. (Terry Reeves)

Walking to ASDA in the fog
Every step with a loud paradiddle 
Avoid a variant of thickening smog
Strings of ministers in cabinet fiddle

Who got it?

Running to TESCO in falling snow
Remaining safe, wash all our hands
Vaccination waits for protection show
Sharp scratch but no summer sands

She got it
He got it

Skate to SAINSBURY’S on slippery ice
Peering to find the unforgiven Lord
Discuss the increasing price of rice
Politicians cut with ceremonial sword

Who needs it?

One, two cold runnings to MORRISON’S way
Sliding monobob a lonely lockdown 
Cresta pandemic flat on skeleton tray
Oxford to Moderna safety COVID town

Middle

Adventurous trip to the ICELAND’S
Climbing frozen peaks in cabinet change
Arctic conditions finding blue diamonds
Words of memoirs on only one page

Who reads it?

Freezer in ALDI like a 63 mission
Hunting food to last past pandemic 
People buy rolls with zero nutrition 
Persuasion ignored by Academics 

Who wants it?
They missed it

Running to LIDL in the ice-kissed smog
Chance of surviving a Third World War
Is there time to buy a new Royal Yacht?
I don’t think so!

I was honored when https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions asked me to remake ‘Tattlesnakes’ from their fantastic album ‘Pun’. Maybe it’s the wildest one, unpredictable but coherent, it inspired me immediately !!

I've remixed to my taste their original studio stems (drums & keyboards), adding my own vocals, guitars & more... hard recommendation of headphones again !!

Lyrics are from another of my ancient poems, where I played with oxytone & eproparoxytone rhymes (translated below but with lost effect in English).

Full versions album here: https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions/sets/another-pun-a-brand-new

Letra  /  Lyrics:

Claro que ya no soy plástico,  /  Clearly I’m not plastic anymore,
ni estoy falto de razón,  /  nor lacking of reason,
puesto que, siendo simpático,  /  since, being friendly,
de sangre es mi corazón.  /  of blood is my heart.

Claro que soy esporádico  /  Clearly I am sporadic
en locos cantos espléndidos.  /  in splendid crazy singings.

Gritos de loco dolor,  /  Screams of insane pain,
llenos de mudo amargor,  /  full of mute bitterness,
claro que ya no son gélidos.  /  clearly are not icy anymore.

Claro que ya soy simpático  /  Clearly I’m yet friendly
y estoy falto de amargor,  /  and lacking of bitterness,
puesto que mi corazón,  /  since my heart,
siendo de sangre, no es plástico.  /  being of blood, is not plastic.

Y en mis cantos esporádicos,  /  And in my sporadic singings,
claro que ya no soy gélido.  /  clearly I’m not icy anymore.

Gritos de loca razón,  /  Screams of mad reason,
ya no gritos de dolor,  /  not screams of pain anymore,
claro que ya son espléndidos!  /  clearly are yet splendid!

the track is a hiphop rap that has a slow catchy beging with a fast pace when the beat drops cause the lyrics are fast like a logic or Eminem song
