A really nice composition and superb performance! ;)

beautiful song I love how you nearly give the rain drops a life like quality where they see everything that goes on, beautiful sound too 💜

what a neat thought to select out to be those drops that touch/fall upon your special one and not the billions that fall elsewhere.I like the way the vocals mix in with the music and beat

Love this song! Beautiful lyrics - such a cool line "One billion raindrops Those ones are luck" Great performance.

so good - melody and words - also, love your percussion raindrops.

Good morning all you wonderful music loving people. And what a beautiful Monday morning it is; made all the better by this enticing new track Clive (https://soundcloud.com/winkandwoo, https://audius.co/winkandw00) and I just finished. It’s our first collaborative effort; and the results are spectacular, if I do say so myself.

As to the backdrop for this piece... it feels surreal, traversing this world of sleepers, lost in their own self-created daydreams and nightmares. It’s a bizarre balancing act, wanting to play a helpful part in this underground movement of consciousness and unconditional love, while also trying to accept that there are many who simply don’t want to wake up from this troubling dream. But in the end, our fate will be shared across the entire planet. And the full range of choices must be recognized and honored, for this grand adventure to play out to its fullest potential.

The old saying ‘It is always darkest before the dawn’ seems like an apt concept to focus on these days. And it’s helpful to remember, great beauty can still arise from the murkiest of waters and most inhospitable of soils. Times might seem dark right now, and we are most definitely heading toward some unprecedented troubling chapters. But it is still just a story; the human story. And we all get to chose our roles, and play our parts. I’m personally quite fond of the ‘kindness and compassion’ approach myself. But there are as many roles to play as there are humans on this planet; so choose wisely, and follow your bliss. In the end, that might be all that matters. 

Clive and I hope you enjoy our first collaborative effort, ’Stay Asleep’. :)

Written August 2022.  She really does love the rain.


She Loves The Rain


Oh she loves the rain 
She stands in bare feet
How she loves the rain 
She runs into the street 
Let it soak her 
That heavy downpour 
It’s no joke, it’s what 
She’s renown for 

She doesn’t like humidity 
She prefers to keep cool 
Feel the raindrops on her skin 
She doesn’t need validity 
To jump in the pools 
Where the water’s gathering 

I love her in the rain 
That wettens her hair 
As showers fall again 
I’ll follow her there 
Of all the raindrops 
I know which I’d be 
One billion raindrops 
Those ones are lucky 

That splash into her hands 
And onto her cheek 
The ones she catches on her tongue 
Not the ones that quench the land 
Nor fill up the creek 
Nor make rainbows with the sun 

Of all the raindrops that must have fallen 
In darkening blooms on paving stones 
Or pointlessly into the ocean deep 
Or dripping from the eyelashes
Of rain lashed North Sea fishermen 
Or hiding lonely tears when someone weeps

Not swished by windscreen wipers 
From cars speeding towards maternity wards
Or bouncing down from leaf to heavy leaf
Or running in silver rivers
Down umbrellas held over elderly lovers 
When they kiss as if they’re teenagers beneath 

What I’d be is those that fall down upon her feet 

Oh she loves the rain

Here is yet another short modern orchestral composition i found recently
while tidying up an old hard-drive.  😉

Apparently, i composed it about 6 years ago, and now i feel that it needs to see the Light of day
and to be Heard!   
 So...
May you enJOY! 😊

The Updraft - Main Theme

Lyrics:
I tracked down all of my loneliness
I followed it into this place
You were sitting there
How could I not fall in love with that face?
You were getting drunk real fast
You were chasing it
You were trying to make that feeling last
You told me just to let you sit there
And sizzle
(sizzle)
Mmm, when I am gone
I hope you think back on me and smile
And take me where all your good thoughts go
All your good thoughts go
Where your good thoughts go

If you come around town
You'll see me swinging from the trees
When you think back on me
I hope you know
I was pure of heart
I could never follow our plan
I was a bad Buddist
 I was even a worse
Song & dance man
I would always fail
It's like trying to land a 747
Through the mail
When you look back on me
Hope that you smile
Ohh, take me into your frontal lobe
And take me where all those good thoughts go
Take me where all your good thoughts go

Take Me Where Your Good Thoughts Go

Dear friends - a little song about life:

Joy

You must believe me when I tell You that childrens breasts
are filled with joy - in the morning
when they see their mom and probably when they see their dad
it’s remarkable that children always love their folks
whatever they have done - their love is huge

Have You seen when a newborn little child
open their eyes  -  to meet their mom
and their lips start to move in the direction to a little smile 
it’s remarkable that children always love their folks
whatever they have done - their love is huge

And what about the father who stands besides
he is so dazed by this great event
and he nearly faints when the child also smiles to him
it’s remarkable that children always love their folks
whatever they have done - their love is huge

Approximate translation into Swedish

Glädje

Du måste tro mig när jag berättar att barns bröst
är fyllda av glädje - på morgonen
när de ser sin mamma och förmodligen när de ser sin pappa
det är anmärkningsvärt att barn alltid älskar sina föräldrar
vad de än har gjort - deras kärlek är enorm

Har du sett när ett nyfött litet barn
öppna ögonen - för att träffa sin mamma
och deras läppar börjar röra sig i riktning mot ett litet leende
det är anmärkningsvärt att barn alltid älskar sina föräldrar
vad de än har gjort - deras kärlek är enorm

Och hur är det med pappan som står vid sidan av
han är så omtumlad av denna stora händelse
och han svimmar nästan när barnet också ler mot honom
det är anmärkningsvärt att barn alltid älskar sina föräldrar
vad de än har gjort - deras kärlek är enorm

I have been writing songs on and off over the last 30+ years. In that time I’ve filled a couple of exercise books with quite a bit of music. I do my best with a very simple recording set up, the songs are all recorded using my 29 year old Washburn guitar and GarageBand on my iPad with a cheap mic in my front room, usually with a cup of coffee. And some biscuits.
