Waiting Too Long can lose you valuable time

I dig the music and vibes which it brings out. Production is cool too. [reposted 10/10]

Encore une merveilleuse musique que Debra Buesking https://soundcloud.com/debra_buesking/ephemeral-piano-day-2022 m'a autorisé à paroler. Grâce lui soit rendue.

Another wonderful piece of music that Debra Buesking https://soundcloud.com/debra_buesking/ephemeral-piano-day-2022 allowed me to write some words on it. Thanks be to her.

Le sablier cassé

Je t’ai laissée partir il y a 1000 ans
Avais-je tort ou raison ? Maintenant,
Je sens que le temps me fait des reproches
Sans aucune pitié.

Ma déraison avait-elle raison ?
Pourras-tu un jour me le pardonner ?
Car mon cœur me traite de tous les noms
Qu’il sort, tout chauds, de sa broche…

Mais, 1000 ans, c’est seulement hier
Et plus j’y pense, moins j’en suis fier.
Je voudrais retrouver le sablier
Pour l’arrêter, le casser !

Si j’arrivais à retourner le temps
Je n’y toucherais plus pendant 1000 ans
Mon cœur ne battra que pour te revoir
Il ne vivra que d’espoir

Si je ne te revois pas
Le monde ne sera
Qu’un désert inhabité
Qu’un sablier cassé…

The broken hourglass

I let you go a thousand years ago
Was I right or wrong? Now,
I feel that time is reproaching me
Without any mercy.

Was my folly right?
Can you ever forgive me?
For my heart calls me all kinds of names
That it takes out, all hot, from its spit...

But, 1000 years, it is only yesterday
And the more I think about it, the less proud I am.
I would like to find the hourglass
To stop it, to break it!

If I could turn back time
I wouldn't touch it again for a thousand years
My heart will only beat to see you again
It will only live on hope

If I don't see you again
The world will be
An uninhabited desert
Only a broken hourglass...

Le sablier cassé (Myckaël Marcovic / Debra Buesking) (new version)

Another great collaboration featuring the Multitalented Caitlin Anselmo.  This one... quite lush!  I can almost see it opening an old James Bond film with all that dreamy imagery.  :)

When You Surrender

When You Surrender (featuring Caitlin Anselmo)

From the forthcoming December, 2023 full-length release, 'The Final Testament of Erysichthon', Boy Met Girl was conceived as a tribute to two Minneapolis, MN, songwriters who both had profound and enduring influence on my own artistry.

This tribute was approached by imagining what a collaboration (however seemingly unlikely) between Prince and Paul Westerberg might sound like - both in a finished product, but perhaps just as importantly, how the effort might likely change as it evolved through various iterations at different junctures of the creative process as it was written and recorded (and, perhaps even tugged back and forth a little bit).

Boy Met Girl

V1.
I've traveled life's landscape, less than thrilled with it
Never found a journey wind up worth it's trip
But then came you, and my world came undone
The way they say it will, when someone is 'that one'
And now I know with all my soul
That our two were meant to make 1 whole

Ch. 1
See, your voice
Is the sweetest melody I've ever heard
So in front of the world I'm gonna pledge love to you, girl
And call your name
It's my favorite word.

V2.
With every river of emotion, I kicked against it's flow
A cynic never finds a reason to let fate take it's hold
Still, here you stand today - facing me
A sign of everything that loving freely can bring
And undeniably it's true
That finally I know trust's strength in you

Ch. 2.
See your voice
Is the sweetest melody I've ever heard
So with it's song in my ear I wanna grow old with you, girl
And call your name
'Cause it's my favorite word.

Br.
The say that nothing ever comes true until somebody believes in it
They say a dream will never come to be until somebody sees it
But see, I'm living proof there's something to be said for divine faith
Because I've been given something that I know I could never imagine
In your grace
Whoa, yeah - and that's forever and all of time.
Said that's forever and all of time.

Ch. 3
See, your voice
It's the sweetest melody I've ever heard
So 'til death do us part I'm stickin' right here for ya, girl
Yes, I am
And still your name
Will stay my favorite word
...dream girl...

Dial 591-ROCK-591-ROCK & ROLL - Sharp Dressed Man - Parody

David J. Kemper is a composer & producer from Chicago, Illinois, city of big shoulders, (former) hog butcher to the world, and home of Nelson Algren, Carl Sandburg, John Dillinger and Al Capone.  It has been speculated (by Mr. Kemper) that the gritty, rough and tumble energy of the streets from whence he hails has given extra bite and backbone to the sounds that he comes up with.  It is a theory, anyway.  Don’t think.  Just listen.  

The music featured here is but a modest selection from the ever-growing DJK repertoire, solo releases (Wet Work), as well as his "other" band/project/whatever, Brahms' 3rd Racket.
