Ya you both know how to keep things sparse.  The best kind of music.

Oh very nice key change and feeling in the heart.

Blankets a cool cover/made the day/just duet//love it.

an absolutely beautiful duet, you two. 💖

just beautiful. You both sound so wonderful together.

Reflection (Polarity)

I wrote this song about 15 years ago. The original version sounds much different, and in my opinion, much worse. I heard it recently and realized that I have struggled to record this song for years in its truest form. I think I've captured this song finally. It's not perfect. None of my work is. But I'm happy that this song is finally in the world of songs now. After 15 years with my lover, it was certainly a "Right Whim".

My sword is my mouth and I
Need to get gone know why
My edge is by sharpness
that's dull on the side

I've got one night to live
even a right whim did
give me a gentle wind
I'll breathe it in.

Thanks for listening, liking, commenting, and following as always!

Right Whim

Mostly the piano lines decide where my composition is heading to. Not this time, I found a voice sample, loved it and build the whole track around it, it had to be dark that s what the voice sample inspired me to do...I wanted to have whale songs in with it but could not find anything convincing...Suggestions? Hope you like the result
Stay tune and healthy

Glasgow 2021 ... Not Dark Enough?

I am wrapping up this dreamy year with my fifth dream song.   Just hope you like this track.

Merry Christmas everyone and I promise no more dream songs next year.

[LYRICS]
Come walk with me, the path of life					
Enjoy with me, the beauty of life					
Find peace with me in each other's souls					
Find love with me within all of our hearts					
 					
Reaching for the sun, like the chosen ones					
Journey has just begun					
Dream in harmony, trust in what we see					
Faith lasts till eternity					
 					
Cherish with me, wonders of life					
Rejoice with me in the wild mysteries					
					
World has gone insane, with hopes we remain					
Amidst the tears & pain					
Dream in harmony, trust in what we see					
Faith lasts till eternity					

Explore every bend of the road when grief crosses our way				
In the mystical sense of reality				
 				
Find strength with me in each other's arms				
Find light with me blessed by God's charm				
				
Reaching for the sun, like the chosen ones				
Journey has only just begun				
World has gone insane, with hopes we remain				
Amidst the tears & pain				
				
Reaching for the sun				
Like the chosen ones				
Journey has only just begun				
Dream in harmony				
Trust in what we see				
Faith lives till eternity

Dream in Harmony

Happy Valentine's All you Hardcore believers in Love! 

A beautiful bluegrass/country song recorded by J.D. Crowe, written by Steven F. Brines and James B. Smoak, interpreted here with a simple acoustic guitar, piano, vocals and mandolin complements. A long time favorite that we think was wonderfully suited to Nat’s gentle voice in lead.

Lyrics:

When you say you love me I don’t know what you mean
But it seems like I should
So if I say I’m bruised and torn and other loves have warned me
You won’t mind if this one is for good

I don’t know if I can take it if we can really make it
I’ve never known a love without an end
But if you really think we can then you can share my blanket
And we’ll see what happens then

When your coat falls from your shoulders in a heap upon the floor
And the door behind is closed
I don’t know if I can stand it it’s an awful lot to handle
Taking scraps of all the things I know

When you say you love me I don’t know what to say
I’m afraid to go along
Afraid that you might hurt me unable to be certain 
Afraid that I might turn and you’ll be gone

I don’t know if I can take it if we can really make it
I’ve never known a love without an end
But if you really think we can then you can share my blanket
And we’ll see what happens then
You are more than a friend...
I guess... we'll see what happens then....

You Can Share My Blanket (cover)

These people are driving me nuts.

What is it with these people?

These people who are so desperate to be seen to be heard, and be seen to be part of the herd, that they stand up and say something.

They then apologise for having said it, when, out of a global population of 8bn, someone, like, maybe, I dunno, Quentin from Bishop's Itchington who breeds rare goats, and has an embarrassing skin problem and no friends declares himself offended by the “something” and because his goats look sad and a bit grubby and have floppy ears, twenty other people out of the 8bn declare themselves to be offended too.

Cue apology and retraction.

“These people” have no use or value in society and need to be removed from the gene pool immediately by the empowerment of balanced observers such as me.

For crying out loud.

(The artist wishes to make no apology whatsoever either for the bum notes in this live recording or the loss of his voice.  That's just how it is).

_____________________________________________________________________

Sorry

I’m sorry for whatever I just said,
I’ll now expound the opposite instead.
While what I said is simple fact sure as I’m standing here,
Twitter’s going nuts and that truth will cost me dear.
So I’ll lie right through my teeth, a heinous sin,
To keep them fat endorsement happy dollars rolling in.
Tell everyone what I don’t think, platitudes never cause a stink,
So I’ll bleat them liberal sheep’s opinions.

Now if a non-PC view slips between the cracks,
I’ll get my PR guys to hastily redact.
Get awareness training, counselling claim PTSD,
Identify as sumpin’ else, blame genetic deficiency.
I got pre-recorded “sorrys” for any trans…(gression) day,
I save apologetic time by having “sorrys” stashed away.
Use any heap of steaming crap to retract my previous monologue tract,
The plain and honest truth ain’t never going to pay.

Oh I’m sorry for what I’ve said and what I’ve not
For all the stuff I did and what I didn’t  
I must apologise for my stream of serial lies
For telling it how it is…… then how it isn’t.

Ah thank you - let me answer that by saying “sorry” first,
In case I make an un-woke inappropriate outburst.
Wouldn’t do to confuse you with something that I really thought,
Social media ripples leave my income stream distraught.
So let me for the record unequivocally state my views,
I think you’ll understand if you put you into my shoes.
Well maybe yea and maybe no, couldn’t say, it might be so,
I hope that does and doesn’t make front page news.

Oh I’m sorry for what I’ve said and what I’ve not
For all the stuff I did and what I didn’t  
I must apologise for my stream of serial lies
For telling it how it is…… then how it isn’t.
