Just realised that I hadn't heard this version. The pared back mix shows the skill in the songwriting and your great voices.

i listened to this root mix a bunch of times on the acoustic grill page, all versions are great, this one has extra feel to it!

I've liked this before and I still like it! Great progression and perfectly pitched vocals. Great songwriting! Chris

The Root Mix of Chris is the better version ! Yo! :•)

very beautiful song, you both sing fantastic!! REally love this.

Wonderful collab! Love your voices and the gliding melodic feel:)

The Revolt of Owain Glyndŵr

A dormant fire inside him did catch wind
with the loss of his land and honor
decreed by the English King

Students, archers, soldiers and even nobility,
saw the raised banner
and joined the uprising

Armed with a vision only few will see,
the last Prince of Wales vowed to
set his country free


Barefoot rascals --
or heroes who won't bend the knee?
That all depends on the victors who write your history

Castles, castles --
internal enemy!
Signs of England's Imperial conquest over thee!

England, England --
your sovereign, our public enemy!

Possunt quia posse videntur
Hear Owain Glyndŵr's four gold and red lion's roar

Mist-cloaked hills and forests, artful strategy
won Owain's men countless battles,
gold, livestock and weaponry

Now, those triumphs, or fleeting fleeting victories,
light the desire inside us
that longs to be free

Castles, castles, centuries old enemy
signs of England's Imperial conquest over thee

Castles, castles, looming over the Irish sea
Eternal reminder of who rules over you and me

England, England --
wickedness with impunity!

England, England --
enemy of liberty!

Owain, Owain, Owain Glyndŵr
The man, the myth, the legend --
they never did capture thee!

The Revolt Of Owain Glyndŵr by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi

I wanted to create a dreamy sounding track using only two chords, this was the result. 

Wandering In A Dream

Artwork : The Great Gathering

Description:
"In spaces where time and distance don't exist, a gathering took place: it was those sent to change the worlds who attended and departed at once with a life oath to never be apart even when they were away. Traveling through liquid cosmic tunnels inside round spheres each arrived to their destiny armed with purpose, courage, and patience. Their heart, their home, and their memories lay dormant but brimming in the subconscious comforting them during long dark nights. Gradual awakening, encoded with superhuman DNA they altered the course of history wherever they went as they were meant to. And then, at last, there was home again: a refuge of deep peace and purity. Dances of cosmic life, elixirs of eloquent colours, caresses of true love surrounding the spirit with bliss, blue fires of music... home Welcome to 2012".



The Gate of the Dreaming Cosmos is composed in 2018 by Gavin Kwok. 
He was inspired by the concept of Flammarion Engraving for the use in CGI Animated Short Film "Sputnik " by Maxim Zhestkov in BIFSC.

Don't Push Babe  ~ Man on a Grill & Chris O  2014
[MOAG]
I’m on my own again 
Tired of pretending it’s ok, that 
you’re most likely on your way

[CHRIS]
Babe you know I love you true 
It’s been one helluva a long day so
won’t you just say you love me too

You buy me bangles, diamond rings but
I just want the simple things under the moon 
like there’s no tomorrow

[MOAG]
Get off that blue trail to the stars 
I don’t like your friends nor their lalalalas 
You moving further makes me hollow

You know I have waited 
Wasted time that you never updated 
Falling apart for the Queen of my heart

[CHRIS]
I don’t want no crown, don’t string me down 
Don’t need no fancy blings
Just gotta get out and do my thing

This ain’t no tale about fame and glory
Much more like my whole life’s story
Oh how can you want me to let go ?

[MOAG]
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve known 
all along that I could never tame you
But who’s that guy in your latest song ?

Those tender words of love, they burn 
right through my soul, they grip tight to that guy 
won’t bring me anything but sorrow

[CHRIS]
The guys in my songs are always you
No matter what I try 
So get a grip and quit this wallow

CHRIS & [MOAG] 
Don’t push Babe 
Don’t do me wrong 
[I don’t intend to do you wrong]
Don’t push Babe 
Are you that strong ?
[and I‘m as strong as the day is long]
Though I may not like you much today 
I keep crawlin’ back here anyway 
[I will be waiting for you here anyway]
Don’t ever say you know what’s true 
[one thing I know is true]
when you don’t even know that I love you 
[is that I love you]

Wonders Will Never Cease (Brian Peters)

As long as I can make amends
And turn an enemy into a friend
As long as I in love defend the peace
Wonders will never cease

As long as I can take a stand
And hold a fallen brother by the hand
As long as I can see that man increase
Wonders will never cease
-
I’m calling you
There’s a better way
I’m calling you
There’s a better way
-
As long as I can heal a wrong
Uplift the weak and purify the strong
As long as I embrace the very least
Wonders will never cease
Wonders will never cease

Wonders Will Never Cease
