Beautiful Marie. Such an endearing composition with John's lyrics.

Lyrics

To the cosmic microwave background
Almost lost this magnetic sound
Penzias and Wilson found our beginning
Validated science and good old sinning

So keep yearned words go make them sing
The truth will ring what's true in our head tins
Still news in this brain bin
Its ok, it ain't critical my meaning

Keep that ink flowing there dear friend
You validate a start and delay the end
Leg it,
Pay bills
Melodies giving us back chills
My ears talk,
They say thrills

Its all just light for me
Let's be luthiers of life
Shine keys to all free
Thrills from the chills
Pills from our wills


Notes
I was thinking through this song Listen to Everybodys Wrong by Bill Liggett on #SoundCloud
https://on.soundcloud.com/wyp6NGQXwcG69sEs9 when writing this today. Well worth connecting to Bill. He's an amazing song writer and a fascinating person too 🔆
Enjoy lots of guitar patterns you won't be able to play haha

This artist is a fine example of learning an instrument when your young. You never lose those seeds you give yourself if you do that.

 Give music to our kids!!! Especially in the face of AI laziness and the destruction of creativity. Now it's more important then ever to hone artistic skills in young people before they forget it altogether...

I know I still unconsciously refer to what I learned as a kid and I know I wouldn't get the results I do now without having done it then. Like a language! Its easy when you learn it young! I didn't learn languages well when I was a kid and I'm shit at them. Shiße
It's all so much handier when the computer up there is wired young

John sent me these lyrics a while ago and with his permission I started playing around with a melody and today I decided it was now or never... and I just recorded it... wanting to have something really simple - lofi... something magical happened...

Lyrics: John Eagle 
Music and Vox: Marie Fontaine

Let’s Be Together

From the first day we met
It was you
Just as you said goodbye
I knew
It was you

When I heard the ship’s blast
I knew it was bon voyage
But I do hope you come back

When we are together
Let’s be together
However painful it may be
When we part

Now you have your pictures
Tied up in lace
I have my memories
Of your smiling face

The beach had a mystery
An Arab moon at night
Hung from gun-barrel sky
As we bathed in its light

And now, when we're together
Let’s be together
However painful it may be
When we part

The beginning is only that
A place to start 
And love is not a handkerchief
Waved from a rail above

We each have a sky
To gaze upon at night
The Dog Star waits for us
Our beacon in the light

So let’s be together
When we’re together
Even though we part
Let’s be together
If only in our hearts
If only in our hearts….

Singer/Songwriter

Hi, I'm Commonwealthgirrl

LIFE IS IMPROV!

My love of music began, as a small child, growing up in Canada. My DJ dad introduced me to music, recording studios, spinning records, and shiny silver microphones; a place I have wanted to live in ever since. His memory will live on with me forever! 

As a kid, I played the flute. I sang in the school choir and made my own secret radio shows late at night. 

As a young adult, I was drawn to the world of theater, started doing improv, and later I directed plays, and ran an amateur theater group. I also write poetry, short stories and fiction. 

My songs are influenced by a mixture of Country, Jazz, Pop and Swing.

Some of my favorite artists include Daniel Lanois, Robyn, Johnny Cash, Tracey Chapman, K.D Lang, Roy Orbison, Mando Diao, Zachary Richard and Rickie Lee Jones, and of course many of you soundclouders who have been supporting me over the past few years :-)


I hope you enjoy my simple yet heartfelt compositions - all are produced in my home studio using a keyboard, my concert and tenor ukelele, a mic, and some low-tech recording equipment. 

I hope you enjoy my first EP entitled The Real Commonwealthgirrl,  recorded in July 2021 at Two Bodies of Water.

Let's be together (lyrics by John Eagle)
