Even now I still love the energy of this song. Everything being reported in the news at the time was provoking a reaction within me but I had no one to really share these thoughts and frustrations with. I still really love the feeling  I get inside when I hear and play this song although, now a little older, I am no longer going off all the world one by one and have become a bit more tolerant and selective.

LYRICS

Met a friend from years gone by
Both remarked how time did fly
Said he couldn't give a toss
About the workers now he's boss

Watched a hero of the past
Say he'd seen the light at last
Hope and prayed that all his fans
Would put their lives in tory hands

CHORUS
Yes I'm going off the world one by one
Guess it wasn't meant to be any fun
Yes I'm going off the world one by one

People ring the radio
To get their views heard on the show
Can't believe the things I hear
Makes me want to disappear 

Freddie Laker he's gone broke
Some feel sorry for that bloke
Send him money such a shame
He's only got five million to his name

CHORUS

Got a visit from the Pope
Kissed the ground Christ what a dope
You could hear the people cheer
Was it love or was it fear

If what I've said gets through to you
But don't reflect your point of view
There is only one thing I can do
You're just another join the queue 


Yes I'm going off the world one by one
Yes I'm going off the world one by one
Yes I'm going off the world one by one
Yes I,m going off the world one by one
Yes I'm going off the world one by one
Yes I,m going off the world one by one
Yes I'm going off the world one by one

The vibe and lyrics of the song circle themes of time, destruction and transformation. Song development was influenced by a plug-in instrument I acquired that enables me to create rhythms and textures using both tabla drums and the sitar. This is not my typical music genre but I was very happy with the outcome. 

Thank You

Dave

Three Bells Toll

The Shrine

As a child growing up in Liverpool during the eighties, I witnessed first hand the struggles people had to endure because of the government’s neglect of our city. The government got away with neglecting its children, whilst Yosser and no doubt many like him had theirs taken away.

Yosser Hughes, the fictional character from Alan Bleasdale's incredible television series 'Boys from the Blackstuff', depicted a single father unable to find work whilst trying to look after his three children. 

The perception of Yosser back then, and probably still now is that he was a crazy, weak, and dangerous person. The reality though, is that Yosser’s behaviour was fuelled by many factors, not just povery, lack of work, and a broken relationship that we witness on screen.

Mental health awareness was zilch back then and most men today like Yosser find it impossible to talk about their struggles in life. This is largely due to the stigma of being perceived as weak. The only person he felt that he could open up to was a priest behind a veiled confessional box, who seemingly offered no help, support or guidance.

There will have been many traumatic events in Yossers life, all as a result of a cycle of poverty and lack of support and understanding that was generationally passed down. 

Yosser struggled on with his failing mental health, but clearly his love remained for his children. He kept looking for work, feeding his children, doing the best he could with what little he had. He like many was unfortunately doomed to succeed, and yet if he had been given help and support he could have brought his children up and been there for them. His wife, like Yosser just another casualty of the continuing cycle of victims, and sadly their children next.

Anyone struggling with their mental health should break free from the societal  stigma and speak to someone. You’re only human and can’t carry that weight alone. You are not alone and It’s ok to be vulnerable, it’s what makes us human. Just please ask someone for help!

Additionally, If you know someone who may be struggling with things, ask them if they want to talk, lend your ear, normalize their worries or concerns, and encourage them to seek help and support.

‘Colorful crochet’ fisherman wanders the streets sipping a calyx staring blankly colorful crochet unknown a poster half torn with the portrait of a woman with close-fitting dress with calyx-shaped breasts breasts wanting to coming out he drops the calyx Busting red wine flows through the maze of sidewalk the wine activates the planet the planet begins to turn he puts the hands in the pockets tear the lining of the pockets a child shoots him with a plastic pistol and goes away jumping and laughing he faints into the liner of the pockets: the long corridors of dreams where tears come together in the wishing well where poets taste the sault the salt that breaks the chains of fear where the voice strips the shadows

Colorful Crochet - with Luciole Langevine in vocals - texte in description

The man in the cover picture is the protagonist of a famous comic series in Italy that I adored as a child. His name is Tex Willer: a ranger, but also the chief of the Navajos tribe.
Unfortunately (or luckily) I unintentionally deleted the Audacity project file of this track. So improving it is impossible. I could make it worse, so I leave it as it was already a few years ago.

The corn outside my window grew an inch during a ten-minute rain. The field is slowly turning from brown to green, out to the horizon. A robin stares into my open window, seeming interested in the sound of piano.

Piano Rain

I'm Awake.

lyrics:
Just another second before i blow you away
just another hype before this decadence
U r about to be eliminated beyond this fence
u know u don't have any decent defense

That's the condition shit
where all the people spit
the gratefulness that should exist
but got lost from people's fist


Just another war about to begin
that's the people's choice gathered on one regime
U r about to be eliminated beyond this world
u know u don't have any decent kind of word

Now the history repeats itself
just another book from the shelf
just another hit before this demolition begins.

Condition Shit (new track)

You Can Call Me Crazy,But It's Now Or Never..

Artwork by Charlie B

Powerless over this disease
Can’t breathe, can’t see..down on my knees
Paradise so far, so far it seems
When will you come to save me 
Pills only thing, making me sleep 
Lost inside this concrete dream 
Paralyzed, nothing left it seems 
Fucking love I need 
Fucking sex please feed
Rainbow sky with the weeping willow breeze
Flying against the wind the tall trees breathe
Left to the right march on zombies 
This beauty outside ain’t meant for me
Sit and stare thinking about the screams 
Though the night is quiet the mine wakes consciously
The hearse is here with the preacher MD
telling me what I need, what I need to succeed 
Shackled up ain’t the way to be
Keep the demons out of my company
Fast asleep. 


Left with nerve damage in my right hand, good thing I play with my toes🌞

Cast of characters:
J.J. Terrell-- @j-j-terrell—JJ—piano, synth, lead vocals, lyrics, seed idea 
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen–electric and acoustic guitar, slide guitar intro 

mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – backing vocals, organ, vst sax, mix, and production
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 – four-string fretless bass
Composition--The Eclectic Collective

 This song began as an idea JJ came up with during one of his Saturday night creative sessions, fleshed out on the piano, drums, and bass. Josh was first on this to come up with a new bass line to go with it, but Ken was also an integral part of that process, as always, too, adding his perfectly suited drums to it. Once we had the rhythm section down, Stephen added his electric guitar, which adds a great howling at the moon aesthetic to it, and his acoustic guitar as a foundational element. He also added the cool slide guitar you hear in the intro. 
  At this point, JJ decided it needed some vocals, too. So, he wrote up some lyrics and sang them, giving his typically light, gentle voice some rough swagger. Inspired by J.J.'s piano, Mark threw down the sax solo and the organ, then added the rich harmony vocals. He also was able to correct some timing issues we were having, by using his able hand in the DAW. Then, of course as every good song needs a good mix, Mark did the honors for us with this one, too.
  This is a true Eclectic Collective song, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.

LYRICS:
That fog around the mountain
is getting set to rise
pulling these wheels on down the road lord
is pulling my heart right out

If you really love someone now
wouldn't you want it to be a hundred to none?
instead of traveling around with a scorecard by your side

ooooh oh yeah
gonna set you free
ooooh, oh yeah
gonna leave you be

that fog around the mountain
it's like a dream
my heart, it has soon forgotten
a rolling stone like me
saxophone

looking down that dusty road
sun's beatin' down
pulling these wheels on down the road lord
has got me down
until I see you again.
