Some real good stuff on this playlist. I'll be listening to this one for a while.

Simply put: A Great Playlist

Well, I'm far too gone for any social please
And I crushed the odds but I'm far from free
Gotta find a way to sustain
This numb feeling cause' it's always

In my head again
when I'm feeling this adrenaline
Of the whiskey that's been kickin' in
I hope that this will never end, I said
In my head again
When the problems started from within
And the truth begins a sinkin' in
I'm beggin' please just make this end, yeah

OH! I gotta feel it, getting near it all
Opened up a void that was a hole
Pour it down until it warms the soul
Gotta feel it, getting near it all

Feeling far too gone for any 'socialing'
And I'm way too young to have this disease
So you think I'm wrong? Let me tell you right
How I've all but won this fight

In my head again
when I'm feeling this adrenaline
Of the whiskey that's been kickin' in
I hope that this will never end, I said
In my head again
When the problems started from within
And the truth begins a sinkin' in
I'm beggin' please just make this end, yeah

OH! I gotta feel it, getting near it all
Opened up a void that was a hole
Pour it down until it warms the soul
Gotta feel it, getting near it all (x2)

Far Too Gone

This song sounds like it's about something else but it's really about sitting looking at an off TV and resisting the urge to turn it on.

Recorded Live in The Stables by Frank Byrne 
Drummer Steve O'Keeffe (https://www.bluesconfidential.com/The Pale)
and the melodic bass playing of Bernard Byrne (The Pale).
Lead vocals and guitar Suzanne Ledwith

Welcome Down The Rabbit Hole

Earth

Arctic Dreams

ハレルヤ　ベイベ　アネモネの　香りのような　きみに会いたい
ハレルヤ　ペイネ　アメフリの　香りのような　きみに会いたい

くるみ色の　愛を待って　手をつないで　蹴り上げる空
ラズベリーのチョコをひとつ　恋人のくちびるに
いろんな国　いろんな人　いろんな歌　世界平和の朝へ
投げりゃあ　おなかもすく　はらぺこのブルース

ゆらゆら　ゆらら
黄色い潜水艦　ゆらら

なんて素敵　キメラの街　地図にはない　きみのこころと
僕は似てて　わかりあえる　花のように　おだやかに
ひかりの森　カフェにふたり　ワインをすこし　世界平和の昼へ
ふわり　酔っぱらって　恋人のそばで泣く

ハレルヤ　ベイベ　音楽と　美しいきみよ　ありがとう
ハレルヤ　ペイネ　喜びと　悲しみの雨よ　ありがとう

くるみ色の　愛を待って　手をつないで　蹴り上げる空
ラズベリーのチョコをひとつ　恋人のくちびるに
なんて素敵　キメラの街　地図にはない　きみのこころと
僕は似てて　わかりあえる　花のように　おだやかに

愛の旅も　恋の旅も　きみの旅も　世界平和の夜へ
続く　くるり踊る　雪どけの　想い出と
こぼれたんだ　いつのまにか　しあわせにも　できたはずなのに
こぼれたんだ　いつのまにか　恋人の側でなく

Chorus

Be yourself
Don't hide
Don't pretend
And ride
Down that road
That's old
Try new
Don't hide
Be you



Be Yourself

Lars Vader Beatz and Tengo's Trail - Immer Noch

The title is inspired by by these lyrics from Modest Mouse: "Language is the liquid that we're all dissolved in..." from the song Blame it on the Tetons off the album Good News for People Who Love Bad News.

Wow, this is the 5th song posted from the album I started using demo tracks given to me by Wou-Wou & the Wormling during the start of the pandemic! This song was inspired by the conservative agenda, which at the time was more noticeably gaining momentum, to systematically whittle away and block the rights of those groups that did’t align with their values. The conservative agenda continues to gain strength, and it is up to the people to support each other in maintaining and advancing rights (including those of groups one is not a part of).    

It has been a great pleasure working with Stricknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou on these tracks. We are blessed by all the support the SoundCloud community has given to our releases. We can’t wait to share more music with you all. 

I haven't done a more straight up hip hop song in ages!

Lyrics:

Hit the streets likes it’s a brand new day
Pound the pavement for the payment 
Of knowing I slay
Say hey to all my homies around my way
Say hey to all the folks just trying to get paid
What up party people dying to get laid
Let you freak flag fly high up and away
Pray to allah Pray to Jesus 
Get all Polytheistic if it pleases
Go to college and write a thesis 
Couch surf around the globe and sleep on beaches 
Who needs meat when we got peaches
Who needs warfarin when we got leeches
Use yo magic to cure diseases 
Go help somebody with yo expertises 
Take a stand against injusticeses 
And don’t give a damn if no one agrees with

You 
won’t see eye to eye with
You
Isn’t able to fully accept 
You
doesn’t want to believe in
You
Be real to your-self and stay true

Word
You know we still fighting 
To open minds to new perspectives
And hearts to other ways of being  And that’s for real
Yo

Who you got a problem with 
What you try to solve it with
Why you got that solid fist
When now’s the time to 
Listen go out and try something
Different see what chu mighta been 
Missin’ dismissin’ 
Omittin’ what wasn’t Fittin’
Your world view 
Let go of what you knew so
You can become a new you
Discover what’s now true 
To hold onto your values
And speak your truth and stay for real
While holdin’ space for others to feel
What they gonna feel and what they says their truth
But if it falls to pieces and their beliefs lead to more injusticeses 
Then don’t give a damn if no one agrees with

You 
won’t see eye to eye with
You
Isn’t able to fully accept 
You
doesn’t want to believe in
You
Be real to your-self and stay true

Yea
That right
This one goes out to all those leading the fight 
In the struggle on the day to day

The epic saga, ‘Land of ZED’ continues! About 1 year ago, Uziel, Stonerjazz and I started a collaborative prog rock style concept album around the concept of ‘Johnny and his Magical Squeezebox’. We’ve been having a lot of fun playing with different styles, breaking all the musical rules, and writing our own soundcloud inspired mythology. 

For the past 3 songs we’ve been working with a new collaborator, Francesca (a.k.a. Zed) who has added a cool new twist to our sound.
And on this track we’re pulling in a fifth artist who contributed an amazing set of lyrics: Jo Richter (a.k.a. Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches). Thanks for joining us!

Lyrics:

Pt. 1

the shining stone
deep in the mountains
the golden glow
brought forth by fountains
raising in moonlight
raising in moonlight
the golden note
created a player
weaving the node
to cross the mire
of red-shifting ire
of red-shifting ire
the jet black stone
deep in the mountains
wailing in woe
brought forth steep chasms
sucking up moonlight
sucking up moonlight
night‘s dim vibration
created a slayer
cloaked in delusion
trouble to sire
with red-flaring fire
with red-flaring fire
oh, flyers beware
the world is on fire
oh, walkers beware
of footing the mire
oh, jonny beware
never to tire
never to tire

Bickering bikers boyish bravado..emboldened they sly and Jellyfish Souls.
To Plant a finicky trickity fine bomb.
in the administrational heart of Zed.
in the mountain's monstrous mouthcave
Where Roy resides and cruelty is King.
For fear of ferocoius felines prowling the ring.
Imposed by the iron imposter this fine will ask
each creature looking more than three feet ahead
to forfeit three loaves of of freshly baked bread.
Those that cannot comply will lose the sight in one eye…

Pt. 2

Crystalizing at caverns edge
Mouth all shining as we make our descent
We outta be... weary and beware
Perhaps more troubles ahead?
Guided ourselves past the terrors
Into starlight shifting patterns
Of stalactites in space underground
We out to be wary and beware
Perhaps in this beautiful world
More troubles...
Ahead?

The Administrational Heart (Land of the ZED #9) w/ Uziel, Zed, Stonerjazz, and lyrics by Jo Richter

Sorry about not being on SC as much as usual. Thanks for checking out my tracks. A song about counting the good things in life. 
Lyrics:
In the hot Everglades
I always seem to find  a cool place
That's why they call me Shade
(oh yeah)The money, it  rains down on me
I'm an anti-blues money machine!
You know I'm lucky
I'm lucky
I don't have no curse from a monkey's claw
No, I don't need no rabbit's paw
Because I am lucky

I went down to the crossroad
You know I was gonna sell my soul
The Devil said "Hey Shade"
"We just don't need no more"
I'm lucky
No curse from a monkey's claw
I don't need no rabbit's paw
Because I'm lucky

I can take a bad hand
Smile and bluff
The next thing you know
I'm driving home with your truck
I'm lucky
Morning, noon and night

I always seem to get the benefit of the doubt
I've had a million heartbreaks
But I always seem to learn a little bit more about
My fellow man
And woman (uh yeah!)
No curse from a monkey claw
No need for a rabbit's paw
I'm lucky
You Folks know that I'm lucky
I'm lucky

I'm Lucky

From the EP "Short Songs For Tall Minds" Soundcloud 2022
Lyrics:
She demands satisfaction
It's a chemical reaction
We are strangers on the dance floor
But she'll never take you home
The lady she likes to live alone
Lady likes to live alone
The Lady likes to live alone

She lives herself in the light
Yeah, in the zietgeist
She doesn't need anyone
Hogging the remote
Or overestimating their charm
Like little boys
That never ever say their prayers
Leaving their mess around
Both literary and figuratively
The Lady likes to live alone 
 Lady likes to live alone
She don't want to pick up your phone
The Lady likes to live alone

(oh yeah) that Lady she lives alone
She don't need you hanging around her throne
She says: you're an okay lover (all right)
But she tired of talking about it
She tired of waking up in the middle of the night
When your crying in your sleep
The Lady likes to live alone...

The Lady Likes To Live Alone

Nothing’s as good as it used to be
I really miss the seventies
Political correctness, hyper-sensitive youth
Propaganda on my TV, masquerading as the truth
Instagram, Facebook and Twitter
anonymous trolls making people bitter
Oligarchies and theocracies
undermine democracies
Robotic drones kill from the skies
It’s easy to kill when you can’t see their eyes
I don’t know how to stop this madness
I don’t know how to end the sadness
But now, I think I understand…
I have become a grumpy old man
He’s a grumpy old man
He’s a grumpy old man
He’s a grumpy old man
He’s a grumpy old man
Today’s pop music really sucks
Polished, corporate, streaming fluff
Everybody wants to return to
an imaginary past 
Where everything was perfect
and the good times always last
But, our planet is dying
and we aren’t even trying
I don’t know how to stop this madness
I don’t know how to end the sadness
I’m no longer a part of the plan
I’m just another grumpy old man
I loved my life in the seventies
I just wish I could remember it more clearly

Letra  / Translated Lyrics:

(Coro:  /  Choir)
De coger café yo vengo  /  From collecting coffee I come
A coger café voy  /  To collect coffee I go

(Solista:  /  Lead:)
Quisiera ver lo que no vi,  /  I’d like to see what I didn’t see,
quisiera ir donde no fui,  /  I’d like to go where I didn’t go,
quisiera hacer lo que nunca hice…  /  I’d like to do what I never did…
… pero veo lo que no se ve,  /  … but I can see what cannot be seen,
voy donde nadie nunca fue,  /  I go where no one ever went,
y hago lo que no hace usted. /  and I do what you don’t do.

Who'll Think of Me?    

These days, when I'm alone
Although I like the solitude
I worry about the future  
Who I'll be sitting next to
When the world stops turning

It's beautiful tonight
But I think  about the windy line
And who'll be on the other side
With a hand that's reaching out for mine 

When time stops going               
Where will I be?
With stars exploding          
Who'll think of me?
Who'll think of me?

Some days when I'm alone  
Although I'm not despairing
I think about conclusions       
And what I will be wearing

When clocks stop ticking          
What will I see?
With life exploding    
Who'll think of me?   
Who'll think of me?

Who'll hunt for cabbages? 
Who will sail the sea?
Who will make the sandwiches?
And who will dream of me?

Sometimes, when I feel blue
And this is not exaggeration	
To say that I'm consumed
With what will be my graduation

When the waves stop crashing 
Where will I be?
With stars exploding          
Who'll think of me?
Who will think of me?

Who'll Think of Me?
