Beautiful song 😍 💐 🙏 🍀 🎶 🎧 

that was bloody marvellous. really unexpected phrasing throughout. loving the vocal harmonising and turn taking in the chorus. really good fusion of voices. lyrics themselves and message crystal clear. top, top tune.

If there was a cycle in which gravity changed, just as there was a change in temperature in a year ...

Slight Weightlessness

Again

Might as Well

My new piece, inspired by a Sydney man, Arthur Malcolm Stace also known as 'Mr. Eternity' (9 February 1885 – 30 July 1967), who for many years left the word 'Eternity' written in chalk on buildings, footpaths, stairwells etc.
This is dedicated to 'Mr. Eternity' and members of my family who have passed into 'Eternity', R.I.P.

'Eternity'

Dream.

This is the sound of the future
This is the sound of the past

Where do we go when the world ends
What do we do if it lasts

Will you hold me in the darkness
Will you kiss me in the cold

So little time left for changes
So many stories untold

Only one train to tomorrow
Only one track in the night

Got no time got no ticket
Drifting slowly out sight

Will you hold me in the darkness
Will you kiss me in the cold

So little time left for changes
So many stories untold...

I start this new album with better sound by means of one of my more beloved and evolved songs ever, a structured piece with progressing parts.

Bien, mal (Lluvia vieja)

This is the third song Janine Levinson https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson and I recorded in this week's sessions. I was pretty stoked on her vocal arrangement. This song is about small family farms that go into foreclosure because of climate change or are bullied out of existence by larger agricultural businesses. Remember,  buy local from farmer's markets if you have one in your area. The veggies taste better too.

Lyrics:
Measured by the treason with a crop grown out of season left to crows 
Measured by the treason of a crop without a season what’s to show? 
Heaven couldn’t cover all the seasons with its reasons and the many others had to go to waste
Farmers and their daughters and the Mothers of invention tried to cover all the bills without   any intervention

Never would there ever be a ghostly apparition in the snow
And the wrestling of the tides and the moon shining bright upon the shores
And together through the storm as the family implores “we just can’t take it anymore!  ” 
Poverty abounds like a second hand plow, desperately paving the way. 

Looking in their eyes, sadness he despised all alone
Desolate rain packing up everything he owns
Moments he was craven acting all stiff and brazen on the phone
Patting little creatures wasn’t sure if he could fake his tone

Everything’s on loan
Factory sold
Big Ag won
Little guy was done

Cutting out expenses and building up defenses with new lows
Cursing at suspensions and fixing broken fences with a backhoes  
Heaven couldn’t cover all the seasons with its reasons and the many others had to go to waste
Farmers and their daughters and the Mothers of invention tried to cover all the bills without   any intervention
        
Looking in their eyes, sadness he despised all alone
Desolate rain packing up everything he owns
Moments he was craven acting all stiff and brazen on the phone
Patting little creatures wasn’t sure if he could fake his tone

Everything’s on loan
Factory sold
Big Ag won
Little guy was done

Measured by the treason with a crop grown out of season left to crows 
Measured by the treason of a crop without a season what’s to show? 
Heaven couldn’t cover all the seasons with its reasons and the many others had to go to waste
Farmers and their daughters and the Mothers of invention tried to cover all the bills without   any intervention 

Everything’s on loan
Factory sold
