What a lovely song! Lovely vocals and harmonies!

An aural delight. Always a pleasure to listen to you two.

Lovely song, lovely presentation with lovely vocals and harmonies!

Great to hear this one from the heart and it goes straight to this heart. Great arrangement, especially with (pedal steel, dobro or slide or is it all 3?) guitar and those sublime harmonies always presses my buttons. Bravi!

Ah beauty.  You guys always find beautiful hooks.

I like that discrete layering of electric guits.

I really love this. Such a gentle balm for the soul.

The timbre of your combined voices is something to behold!

Thank you for all these lovely titles, it's always a pleasure to come back to your place 🙏

Today, humanity is killing all that's humane. This track is my way of protest against all atrocities carried by human against fellow human. You can also see my short film "Liberty" by clicking the link.

Lyrics

Verse 1
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Touched by the stardust
She found her real lust
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 2
Caught in the spotlight
I'm faking the real life
Touched by the starlight
Escaping the real life

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse

Verse 3
Stella by Starlight
Escaping the real life
Won't you come on down?

Refrain
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse
Watching it all go down, at the icehouse
Playing all the standards, at the icehouse

Lyrics:

River of Dreams 

Take me down to be baptised in your River of dreams
And I’ll follow you where ever you may lead
I don’t pretend to know much but I know This one thing…
That God is Love, and Love means everything.

There’s been so many doctrines And insane philosophies 
Unending like the currents of the seas
But strip it down to love, And we’ll be able to see,
We’re all just flesh and bone from the same tree

Chorus 
And as I leave a trail of memories, And all the moments in between 
I found that love was all that mattered, And loved is how we’re meant to be

Verse 2
Now some of us are pretty much confused all the time
But I’ve never been more sure when I’m with you.
So wade me in your river, let me float for a while…
Your sweet embrace is like the morning dew.

Chorus 
And drinking from your sacred chalice, the vale of doubt will be removed
And gentle hearts will over flow in every way,
And say the things that words can never say….  Can never say …

Bridge:
Oh it’s you.. and only you!
That ignites my soul makes me lose control
Oh and you will never know,
How the words you speak writes a sonnet in my soul

So take me down to be baptised in your river of dreams, 
And I’ll follow you wherever you may lead.

River of Dreams

River Of Dreams

Piano - Andy
Strings (vst)- Helen

Helen thought the repeating piano phrase reminded her of an old fashioned treadle weaving loom. So the track is a sort of homage to those who laboured at these devices to create fabric and clothing for the masses. The painting is "Weaver" by Vincent Van Gogh.

I love to go back to basics with songwriting and usually on a lazy afternoon pick up the acoustic and mike it up and record with no thrills and definitely no skills.
The Green is a tribute to a piece of grass that I spent my childhood homing my football skills, Learning how to ride a bike, fighting , chatting up the local girls and anything else really.
My mom still lives on the boundary of it as we did as kids. One day back in 2019 i was leaving to go back home from a visit and looked across The Green and I felt sad it was a hell hole of a burn out car, old burger van with grass growing around it and tire marks everywhere.
There were neighbours having a barbecue on their front lawn with friends, cans, tables and chairs on the council footpath and a massive bouncy castle on the council grass. With loads of cars using it as a car park.
Is this our England ! we loved were we lived and we’re grateful for such a big piece of grass to play are internationals on.
We wasn’t posh this was a council estate with good honest people who respected their homes and others. 
Patrick would come down with his Irish family & mates to play England v Ireland and we all live out our dreams on that grass . 
Yeah we had Mad Roy and Steak out Sid trying to stop us but it never did they were just old miserable buggers.
Kids don’t play on it anymore it’s a neglected shit hole because irresponsible selfish adults made it that way.
Long Live The Green I hope someday you make a recovery ❤️‍🩹
