Collaborations and Salutations

my ear

It's mind blowing for me to realise that it is almost exactly 20 years since Porcupine Tree made their first ever live appearance, at a small club called the Nag's Head in High Wycombe, UK on the 4th December 1993. To commemorate the anniversary here is a recording from the archives of the first song played at that first ever show, the Van Der Graaf Generator / Dead Can Dance sampling, David Gilmour meets The Orb fusion of Voyage 34 (years before he did actually collaborate with The Orb!), the birth of PT as a band and a performing entity.  It was recorded straight from the mixing desk so the balance is a bit strange, but actually considering how nervous we must have all been, it's not bad at all.

PORCUPINE TREE - Voyage 34 (Nags Head 4/12/1993)

***This is the second collaboration between Dances with Sheep and ELT Project.  Our last one (It's a Fine Line) was well received so we HAD to go back and mess it up!  I asked ELT if he had anything mellow, and he composed this instrumental masterpiece - originally titled "Mellowville."  Gotta love his work!  ELT wrote and played all the instruments, and inspired me to do the vocals and lyrics.  Go check out ELT's fine work on his cloud at @soundcloud.com/extremeloungeterror.  Hope you enjoy, and as always - free .wav downloads. 

IS IT ANY WONDER?

ELT/DWS (2013)

Is it any wonder that the moon lives in your eyes?
Down the spiral staircase hand in hand and mind in mind
Is it any wonder I can swim inside your charms?
Rings of Saturn call to me and pull me to your arms

Hold me underwater till my lungs fill up with pain
Then hold me under longer so I can’t get out again
Floatin’ down that river with no boat to slow our way
no boat to slow our way to the sea

Is it any wonder that the sun burns in your hair?
Every breath that you exhale is angel precious air
Is it any wonder that your whisper turns the key?
Lava flowing down on me is cooled off in your sea

Hold me underwater till my lungs fill up with pain
Then hold me under longer so I can’t get out again
Floatin’ down that river with no boat to slow our way
no boat to slow our way out to the sea

VACANT PLACES

ELT/DWS (2014)

Vacant places 
I can’t remember 
burn themselves into my memory

Empty eyes
and pie-plate faces
fill me by design

Vacant places
and fun filled spaces
the emptiness inside my brain 

Empty faces
they shuffle toward me
and inject me with their pride

And I......
I just can’t fill
I just cant feel
vacant places

Help me fill
these vacant places
and sign upon the dotted line

I cannot help you
I cannot fill you
your space is too far and wide 

These untold stories
that just keep screaming
locked away without a key 

you never know 
when that moment comes
to tear a hole into the fabric of your soul

And I......
I just can’t fill
I just cant feel
vacant places

Vacant Places (With ELT Project)

****What a pleasure it was to work with two magnificent artists!   ELT Project, https://soundcloud.com/extremeloungeterror wrote this dreamy track as an instrumental and plays all the instruments.  Kellie Rowley, https://soundcloud.com/kellie-rowley sings (and I do mean SINGS!) and co-wrote the lyrics with DWS who also adds vocals.  Go visit Kellie and David’s profiles.  We hope you enjoy.

PLEASE BELIEVE ME

ELT/Kellie Rowley/DWS - 2016

Sarah
She came with a tight smile
reached around for awhile
then she brought me to my knees

Sarah
tastes like ice cream
she makes my dreams scream
and that’s all I really need

Please believe me
when I tell you
how much I care

Sarah
Cries each Friday
laughs on Monday
until Jesus asks her please

Sarah
(Do I play it alone?)
She set the dog free
(Do I play it safe?)
but she won’t listen to me
and that’s all I really need

I feel the same flame
standing close to you
and when you look at me that way
don't want to play another game
Please believe me
when I tell you 
how much I care

WAITING
(ELT/DWS - 2016)

Please don't leave me waiting
Waiting is something 
I don’t do so well 
Please don't leave me waiting
Here for you

Theres no hesitating
Knock on my door  
I'll let you come in
You hold the key to my heart 
So you can just walk in 

In the morning when I rise
And find that you're not there
I wonder where you were last night
and why I even care

Please don't leave me waiting
Waiting is something 
I don’t do so well
There's no hesitating
Come to me somehow  

In the morning when I rise
And find that you're not there
I wonder where you were last night
and why I even care

Please don't leave me waiting

MED LOST
(Mock Church/DWS)

I got my feet up moving and they're tapping the beat 
it's not coming from me it's the devil Pete 
I got to get up in the morning and I got to go 
I got this lady in the back seat and she's ready to go okay 

E I O and I'm ready to go okay 

It's like when I'm waking up in the morning I feel real low 
son you gotta understand you got something up in your head 
something like a man and it's dragging its dead 
you don't understand how to get the medicine 
and put it inside of that decay 

Up in the morning try to get it out 
try to ask the father for a devil's spout 
did you see that UFO above my head 
I said did did did did did dit did did did did you see that okay 
up in the morning and I don't understand 
what happened to me cuz my memory's slow OK 

E I O and I'm ready to go ok

Olivia's Lyric's In English :

To the West
to the West as to the East
Birds go away with the light

To the west
to the West as to the East
Our minds run away under the barriers

While to the West
to the West as to the East
Men sink into the dust

See,
See our gardens, our forests
Bearded rocks and stone waves

See,
See our gardens, our forests
Streams of pus and sad rivers

See,
See our gardens, our forests
Shell crash and war market

While to the West
to the West as to the East
The birds go away with the light
The birds go away with the light ....

This Is How It Is Out A L'Ouest WITH CHRIS WEBER - OLIVIA & JOERXWORX

*** ELT PROJECT wrote this as an instrumental.  He wrote the title and all the instruments.  I heard it and loved it and asked if he would mind if I put lyrics, vocals and a melody to it.  He graciously said yes.  It was a pleasure - ELT is a freaking genius...you can listen to his other fine works on his SoundCloud page - https://soundcloud.com/extremeloungeterror


IT'S A FINE LINE


ELT/DWS (2013)

Right is wrong
wrong is right
it’s black and blue throughout the night
I pull it left and you push it right
we may love or we may fight

It’s such a fine line
it’s such a very fine line
It’s such a fine, fine line
a very very very fine line

Sky turns into sea
sea turns into sand
sand turns into me
Baby, I’m in you

Grey is black
Gray is white
Red, green and black throughout the night
I bet it loose and you play it tight
Let’s spin the ball and bring the lights

It’s such a fine line
it’s such a very fine line
It’s such a fine, fine line
a very very very fine line

Sky turns into sea
sea turns into sand
sand turns into me
Baby, I’m in you

Red is blue and
green is green
I’ll figure out just what you mean
all those colors I’ve never seen
eat each other when I dream

It’s such a fine line
it’s such a very fine line
It’s such a fine, fine line
a very very very fine line
