Cover art picture is of Mum & Brian, taken in 1949.

My Mum requested that, at her funeral(today, 16 January 2022, being the third anniversary), our sisterJayne and her children made arrangements to cover her coffin in pink roses as a sign to everybody that we should celebrate her life and not mourn her death.  They found a casket with a pink rose design too, which would have pleased her even more.  She wanted to be remembered for the good times she had with her family and many close friends.  Mum enjoyed parties and celebrations a great deal.

In writing the song, I wanted to represent all the important parts of Mum's life to help us to remember what an incredibly generous person she was,  always there to help those who needed some extra love and attention.  We grew up in a house that was somewhere our friends and neighbours could always turn to if they needed help. Throughout our lives it wasn't at all unusual to wake up in the morning to find someone who needed refuge asleep on the sofa.  Neighbours' children would join us for meals on a regular basis and Mum made sure there was always plenty to go round..

At the funeral itself, as the chorus explains, I felt so uncomfortably exposed, standing at the front with all eyes seemingly looking at me, gauging every reaction. I think Jayne and Gal felt much the same if truth be told.  Even with my wife and children there to support me, it was one of those moments in life I don't think any of us ever really wants to face. 

We will certainly never forget our wonderful Mum and all the things she did for us.  She always made special times just a bit more special, going that extra mile so that the memories would last a lifetime.

I felt it was particularly important to write this song for my sister, who was the main carer for my Mum in the latter years of her life and dealt with all the difficulties with so much love, care and strength.  This song is for you Jayne, with all our love. 

As always, we give our heartfelt thanks to Hans for producing an arrangement so in keeping with the spirit of the song and the occasion it marks.
Thank you everyone for all your support.  (Terry Reeves)

One thousand pink Roses to light the flame
One thousand reasons making you live again
One thousand regrets as we all stand still 
One thought of sadness makes this moment so real.

I don’t wanna be here for all to see   X2

Five hundred stories to make you live again
Five hundred dresses in a beautiful frame
Five hundred presents for your many friends
One single moment, our love will never end

I don’t wanna be here for all to see. X2

One hundred whispers hiding words of truth
One hundred wishes turning magic loose 
One hundred kisses for children who sing
Only one person could make hearts ring

I don't wanna be here for all to see.     X4

Only one mother helps grow with a laugh
Only one mother puts smiles in every photograph
Only one mother gives when others take
Our family love you never stopped trying to make 

I will always be here for you and me
I will always be here for you and me...
I will always be
Here for you

ONE THOUSAND PINK ROSES (FOR MUM) - CRIPPLE CLUB & HANS ALBERS

My first full metal release - This is a powerful symphonic metal track juxtaposing thick distorted guitar with smooth orchestral and synth layers for a rich texture.

Serial

Growing tired of the liars and the cheats, the deceits of the elites….
Self-unaware at the Vanity Fair -the highest possible priority to saying words
Sow what you reap, bullshit is cheap, selling out to the dragging feet, of the elite
Slipping away, save it for a rainy doomsday, making hay, on the way
Sinking deep in the shadow of the valley of time, bluff on the causes of crime

Just to see you

Lyrics
Verse 1
One last flight
I think I’ll check my vital signs
Before I strap in for the ride
And in my mind
You’re the fear I cannot hide
When I’m flying across the sky

Refrain 1
Just to see you, Again
Just to see you, Again

Verse 2
Enemy lines
I think I’ll drop my last goodbye
and find my way back to you
I can’t un-see 
All the things you made me be
I’m coming home back to you

Refrain 2
Just to see you, Again
Just to see you, Again

Outro
One last flight
One last flight
And I’ll see you, AGAIN
Just to see you, Again
Just to see you, Again
One last flight, Again
Just to see you, AGAIN
Just to see you, AGAIN

Just to see you (ft. The Gatsbys)

'In A Nutshell' is an instrumental fusion track....

In A Nutshell

Music and production by Libby Laksmi
Vocals written and performed by @indiiwildmoon @wildsilencez :
when the words have no space to breathe
the stories you tell sing and spark a fire
ashes of guesses floating by covering me in flakes of sky
maybe we can pretend together
an outline of shadows
souls on strings autumn dreams phosphorescent leaves
maybe we can spark a fire with the bones of broken things.
don't pretend i know what it's like
don't pretend to see when they're not looking
when the words have no space to breathe...

Space to breathe

Coquillage

A combination of bemused rantings into the disinterested void & ambient doodling. Visit https://craigwinstanley.online I would like to create dark impenetrable experimental music, but I'm too fond of melody...
