Great track with really fab vocals! Listening a second time through!

Really like the build up to this part too!

Lovely and passionate, in various "classic" ways.

what a terrific tribute to family. really wonderful words, anthemic arrangement, and of course the singing. I like your voice, but realized after listening to a few of yer tunes now that it's the confident and daring delivery that I admire even more. bravo!

The Last Frost of Winter

February 2023 DIAMC prompt was to write a song inspired by a name, which was to be included within the title. 

Yesterday I sat down, wrote and recorded, this song about - and for - my beautiful almost, almost always friend. We met when I was 9 and she was 10. 


Gwendoline

Northern lights watched late, from garage roof
Swung on swings with Walkmans, in our youth
Oh my darlin’, times were simpler then

There’ve been darker days, tears amongst laughter
Can’t stay kids for ever, and after
Oh my darlin’, growing up can hurt bad
 
I just hope that I always had your back

Wish I still took time and wrote more letters
To have and hold, with love from sender
Cos my darlin’, you know I’m really glad

All  these years you’ve been there for me too
The  lovely  things you say,  and that you do
Oh my darlin’, you’re the friend I’ve almost, almost, always had

Through all the good and bad
The happy and the sad
Lucky to have Gwendoline

If you need me darlin’, you just call
You know I’ll catch you if you fall
If you need me darlin’, you just call
You know I’ll catch you if you’re falling

Gwendoline - Demo

For my sister, and the many other strong women that we all know. Backing vocals and co-write courtesy of the inestimable @sonya-heller.

LYRICS:

There are times
When I forget myself
And all the trouble in this world
Then I feel guilty
For feeling happy
I know it sounds absurd

But when I think of you
Things you’ve been going through
All I really want to say is

Sister, oh my sister
You are strong
Stronger than I'll ever know

You’ve been dealt
Your share of hardship
Oh, but in the face of yours
You walked for miles
Across the desert
Now you're running many more

So when I think of you 
And every sister too
All I really want to say is

Sister, oh my sister
You are strong
Stronger than I'll ever know
Sister, oh my sister
You are strong
Stronger than I'll ever know

Oh sister
If the truth be told
I don't know what the future holds
But, it's like we've learned to say
Don't do tomorrow
What can be done today

Sister, oh my sister
You are strong
Stronger than I'll ever know
Sister, oh my sister
You are strong
Stronger than I'll ever know

Stronger, stronger
(Stronger than you'll ever know)

Fox vs Rabbit (Album)

Woodland Fox

Campy tongue in cheek or sincere lament? Well kinda both; this was just one of those stream of consciousness snippets that was ridiculous in the onset, and I never thought it'd be something I put out there but it kept snowballing and these things end up like a dog waiting by the door silently imploring  "Let's go for a walk."   My son attended an academic conference a few weeks ago and related that an environmental scientist believes we're cooked, literally and figuratively. We may need help but I don't think it's coming. My mortal expectancy extends only to introductory portents but my kids and granddaughter can expect to see the collapse of our environment unfolding in total, irreversible clarity. OK let's go back to making fun for now.

shining so long ago
you know it should've been time to leave
and to let you go

while there's still time before
you know it could've been beautiful with all that we have here
take a look around this around this is our only home 
there's nowhere else to go

we left before these things had come to mind
and now it's all so very clear it was not your time

where is that saving grace we left behind?
the shadow remnants of a world that could have been so fine
we left the saving grace to guide you through the perils of the darkest night
now your fragile world is burning

shining so long ago
you know it should've been time to leave and to let you go
are you ready for what's coming now?
doesn't matter that you don't believe

there will never be another time to make it right
there will be no dreaming in the common night
you had your chance and then another and another
but you never could comply 
any promises you make to change your habits just another lie

wait a minute there's something here that can't be found
anywhere else in this universe on this holy ground
take a minute take an hour take a day to change your mind
can't you see your way through to help us one more time

we settled you in Atlantis we left you signs in Peru
we taught you the secrets of life on the Nile
but you never could live up to the gifts that we gave to you

heaven knows we've been blind to the lessons we were given
time after time
and if we never seem to learn don't abandon us 
when our fate is so dire

is it too much to ask to want these things to last a little longer?
take pity on the children theirs is not the fault of the fathers

Cool Vibes

Ce morceau de musique a été composé comme une variation stylistique sur un même thème musical afin d'illustrer cette petite histoire:
(0:00) Plein soleil dans un grand ciel bleu;
(0:10) Des dunes à perte de vue;
(0:21) Le désert du Rub al-Khali;
(0:47) Une caravane à l'horizon;
(0:58) Les Bédouins voyagent depuis des jours;
(1:08) La chaleur est écrasante;
(1:19) La routine s'est installée;
(1:29) La lassitude aussi;
(1:40) Des flèches tombent!;
(1:50) C'est une attaque de brigands;
(2:01) La caravane tente de fuir;
(2:11) Ils approchent;
(2:22) Les Bédouins sont encerclés;
(2:30) Ils doivent éviter les flèches;
(2:44) Corps-à-corps;
(2:51) Le combat est féroce;
(3:02) Les brigands sont mis en déroute;
(3:09) Ils battent en retraite;
(3:16) Retour au calme;
(3:54) La caravane reprend la route.
