The depths of loneliness

Played with parlor -style steel string acoustic guitar.
Tone captured with matched pair small diaphragm condenser microphones.
Recorded in an one take and only little bit of equalisation and reverberation has been added.

When Brian first played me “If The Stars Are The Dreams Of Spacemen“, I was absolutely stunned by its brilliance.  Of course, having grown up with his songwriting, I was already a huge fan of everything he wrote but did think there was something extra special about the song.  Knowing him as a brother, I saw just how revealing it was about his often uneasy relationship with the world and his place in the scheme of things.  The closing line, “Who am I?” said it all for me.  It was a song to which I often returned, particularly after he was gone.

Eventually, I arrived at the idea of writing something that in some way linked to his original composition but told the story from my own perspective.  Not wanting to ride on his coat tails in any way, I felt very uneasy about doing this, so decided it was something I would do purely for myself.  It took many long months to come up with something I thought would be a worthy companion piece but the more I wrote, the more the idea took on a strength and shape of it’s own until I had fashioned it exactly as I wanted it to be.

It took quite some time to summon up the courage to play it to Gary, thinking if he thought it was any good, I might take it further.  When he said that he thought that it was one of the best songs I’d ever written (something I really didn’t expect) and that I should send it to Hans, it had an overwhelmingly emotional effect on me, particularly since I was very doubtful about playing it to anyone else at all.

Hans always has a way of emotionally inhabiting the songs I write and the arrangement he produced was exactly what I felt the song needed.  There’s no doubt in my mind that if he and Bri had ever played together, they’d have created musical dreams that would spread throughout the universe.

Today, the 22 August 2021, marks the ninth anniversary of Bri’s death and I can only hope that this song does him justice.  We miss him more than ever.  (Terry Reeves)

How can I write a song about the stellar writer?
Breathing music in space, helping bands to be tighter
A Bishop’s marriage of schemes inside your wigwam 
As the cluster of stars reflects only you as it can 

CHORUS 
If the stars are the Dreams of spacemen
Floating around by imagination 
Adjusting scope to seat the nightmares 
A magnetic field of dreams 
With musical chairs

A spaceman in search of the perfect mate
Floating through Galaxies more dreams of love can’t wait
Loving tears never seen behind a facial shield 
As the Milky Way melts revealing what Kepler’s laws might yield 

CHORUS 

I could never write the songs of stars
With your heart so full of love from here to Mars
The spaceship framed inside a past that lingers
Touching gravity with your skill of voice and fingers

CHORUS 

Isolations ending showing fusions of greatness 
Will never explain your skill of silence and lateness 
Knowing love as you do 
Making love a sad fool
I will never fully know who you are

I called this disturbing cocktail of sounds "This Wrong Wrong World" and, at the moment, it corresponds to my inner state.

Lyrics:

O-zone, tip a toe and walk around the no
Fly-zone flap a wings land a sea…

…Turtle like a feather
Sounds like brisbane's weather
Like beautiful christmas eve still dressed for halloween
Of roundabout clouds go flying
Mile-high fantasy
Just to chase your morning kiss
To the rainbow's end we missed

Oh-zone, what are we
Slyly waiting for?
Can we take any
Chances granted
Con-trails
Go up in day-glo
In the mid-dle or in between

Oh-zone
what are we waiting for?
Fate or Chance
Or crash land in between

--Bridge--
So fly on
Sky miles echoing empty seats
So cry on
wings of stranger angels

…turn like a feather
Sounds like brisbane's weather
Like beautiful christmas eve still dressed for halloween
Of roundabout clouds go flying
Mile-high fantasy
Just to chase your morning kiss
To the rainbow's end we missed

--Sax--

o-zone
Shaking plane all through night…

-- Sax trading 8's--

Fate or chance?
Fasten your seat belts tight

Baby kicked the seat And nicked daddy's cheek
Angry steward spilled wine tipping wings
Your free movie just became reality

o-zone!
Let's pull our parachutes
down to your sideways frown

o---zone
No fly zone
Crashing landing strip
Turn back time to
Summer's breeze on winter's eve

Talking To Myself Again

In For A Penny

Lyrics:-
Once upon a time 
There was a grand magician
He would put on shows
To make the people gasp
In disbelief
All the Kings and Queens
Would ask him to their castles
They showered him with riches
And his popularity increased

Beware the Fairytale
Fairytale 
Be mindful of the trickery, the swindle
It's a smoke and mirrors plan
Beware the Fairytale
Fairytale
In pulling back the curtain
No surprise
There is an ordinary man

Now we have 
Celebrities and Politicians
Putting on an act
To entertain the folk
And keep them none the wise
All the kings and queens
Still ask them to their castles
Still shower them with riches
So they toe the party
Toe the party line

Beware the Fairytale
Fairytale 
Be mindful of the trickery, the swindle
It's a smoke and mirrors plan
Beware the Fairytale
Fairytale
In pulling back the curtain
No surprise
There is an ordinary man
