MY DAYS IN EYDON.
=============================

Second time I collaborate with Peter.

Great musician, exceptional lyricist and masterful social critic. All his work is full of social winks, a memory of something or someone or a beautiful poetry, and you can see it in the link below.

The first time he was kind enough to give me, on top of music I sent him, wonderful lyrics about my city, in which I feel deeply lucky to live. Do not publish this song as a gift, but you can listen to it in the following link.

That's why I decided to finish an unfinished song in December 2015 so that I could describe the town where he lives and return the gift to him.

Thank you Peter for your patience, enthusiasm and dedication.


Lyrics.

Ghosts
Float through my mind
Souls from ancient times
Speaking in their song of bones
Through tombstone telephones
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering

Stones
Spangled with iron
In perpetual denial
Of earthly ticks and tocks
Doing time in village stocks
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering
…..........they're whispering.... now....

Earth
Soft as the bells
Old hands forged them well
When you can smell the time
And hear the fires shine
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering

Ghosts
Float through my mind
Souls from ancient times
Speaking in their song of bones
Through tombstone telephones
....and they're whispering
…....they're whispering
…..........they're whispering.... 
…..............but the whispering …..is mine.....
…...................it's all mine....

Living In the Sun by Vocalatti (ft arterial flow)

This one is played and recorded straight after sleeping in the late saturday afternoon. 
The guitar is cheap fan fretted 8-string electric guitar.
This is the first recording with it.
The signal route:
-FMR Audio RNLA7239
-Seymour Duncan Silver Lake Reverb
-Flamma FS07 Cab
-Tascam DP-006 Recorder

8 - String Improvisation 03122022

Our first new song as Watchglass reunited. This started as a single idea that came to me through pondering another duo, Moon and Aries, who make music, separated by half a planet and yet not separate at all in their vision and shared passion. We hope you enjoy!  
PS Mark made a YouTube video for this one and we would love for you to stop by and let him know what you think. He's a quiet achiever but he's really proud of this and ought to be so.

It's not every day
It's not every lifetime
Something like this comes along
Hold it close
Feel it breathe
You have each other now.
She's come back to you.
There could be worse things
And better still to come.

Greetings my SC friends. I have a fun one to share with you today. In fact, it might exceed the legal limits for perky and quirky… so don’t go driving under the influence. :D

So here we are, choking down the remainder of January 2023 (try it with the honey mustard. It goes down a lot easier). Here in the US, many of us are trying to make the most of this potentially quieter year, as we count down to what I like to call Apocalyptageddon (otherwise known as the 2024 Presidential Election).

Despite (or perhaps in the face of) the ‘OMGHOLYSHITARGH!!!’ going on everywhere, I’m seeing the most interesting evolutions in this community. And it’s not just me noticing this. I’ve recently read quite a few comments about how much people have grown creatively. I’m seeing huge strides in the musical skills and songs of so many of our SC friends, many in just the past year. And I have a theory for why that is… and I am prepared to demonstrate…

Imagine for a moment that you are a human being with feelings. Someone comes up to you and says “I love who you turned out to be. You have a great mind and a great imagination. Your creations are quite magical. And I really want to spend more time in your space, seeing what you do next.”

If you’re like me, and I know I am (line blatantly stolen from a favorite MST3K), positive reinforcement like that is tremendously motivating. I can’t wait to get back to my creative space to see if I can make something even more awesome the next time. I know to a certain degree, that’s just me feeding my ego. But let’s face it. Ego is the Operating System we have been provided in this lifetime; and it does love to feed (it’s overfeeding that leads to bloating, so just try to keep to healthier serving sizes).

Now imagine again that you are one of those peeps with feels. Someone comes up to you and says “You suck. You’re worthless. You always will be.”

I personally find this slightly less motivating. And if you already have a less than ideal self esteem, that kinda crap sinks in deep and destroys confidence.

I think the point I’m trying to make is, the human experience isn’t meant to be a hermit-like adventure. I’m pretty sure loving ourselves for just being us may be one of the highest achievable goals. But as long as the ego is in the pilot’s seat, we need interaction (both verbal and physical). We need validation. We need to feel like our lives are meaningful. And we get that from each other. But it’s important to remember a subtlety… we also have the privilege of giving that to each other. And giving might actually be more beneficial to the soul than getting, where this gift is concerned.

This is where so many of you come in. You are the kind and loving voices, letting people know they’re doing great. You take the time to remind them, their creative explorations are worth the effort. Many of you motivated me to try harder through positive reinforcement, and even direct guidance. And I happily watch as you continue to do the same for the folks just starting up. You’re a beautiful bunch of people, and I admire you greatly. 

So please, you wonderful souls, keep doing what you’re doing; both being creative and being supportive. We all benefit from the kindness this group generates. We are all inspired to be better people through the actions of those who help us out along the way. You are all a huge positive influence in my life, and I hope I can be the same for you. Let’s make 2023 obnoxiously loving, friendly and funny. Let’s brighten this world again, dancing naked on the dining room table, a rose clamped tightly between our teeth.

I hope you enjoy my latest sonic meandering ‘Choosing Our Own Adventure’. :)

A love in the heat of summer
But remember seasons change
In the cold of the winter
Feelings often fade away

She left me in the moonlight
She left me with the rain
Something meant to be forever
Will never be again

How long is the dark night
How deep is the sky
Does her voice still carry 
An eternal goodbye

How deep is the sky
How deep is the sky
Memories of sailing
But clipped wings never fly… fly

When I awoke it was from a dream
A heavenly body floating over me
But the nightmare is in the waking
To a ghost that still speaks
Even though she never returns
There’s a fire that still burns

She left me in the moonlight
She left me with the rain
Something meant to be forever
Will never be again

How long is the dark night
How deep is the sky
Does her voice still carry 
An eternal goodbye

How deep is the sky
How deep is the sky
My memories of sailing
Clipped wings never fly…

How deep is the sky
How deep is the sky
Does her voice still carry 
An eternal goodbye… goodbye

How Deep Is The Sky

There are twists and turns before a song is completed.Sometimes looking back to the first demo, we find that it sounds tasteful.

Song & Lyrics: Hiroyuki Ishimoto 
Performance: Gatta
Produce: Davy Lotsbooks

Arranged: https://soundcloud.com/user-109612266-663984932/you-know-things-i-dont-know-feat-ucchy-t?si=d9918f5ea07044b8bcceb2e49c5c06fb&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Lyrics:

There you are, lost in the light.
Where is there?
In my dreams... you are smiling.
Where am I?

Far away from here, even now you are laughing?
Even now I catch something...
Where are you?

We all want to catch something someday.
When the world far, far away seems distant and hazy
I smile.

Oh, nothing, I don't know, growing up.
Oh, who the hell you might be

Always making me... la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la...
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la....

BANG!

Oh, no one, go to, there's a place...
Oh, nobody, nobody, la-la-la-la-la-la-la...

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la....

BANG!
