IL FAUT TAIRE LE TEMPS

Les vérités fragiles, celles qui indisposent
Des heures indociles qui vieillissent les roses
Sous des lueurs ingrates dans ce compte à rebours
Les années qui partent aux allers sans retour.

Les folles images sans oraisons verbeuses
Nous tournent la page des idées voyageuses
Devant ces rêves fanés de pensées furtives
Le souvenir d’un passé aux humeurs positives.

Il faut taire le temps, se faisant si rapide
A moquer le présent sans le rendre stupide
Briser le miroir des ans, s’il est tant lucide.

Sous couvert d’absolu, larguer le mauvais sang
Vers des terres inconnues au milieu d’océans
S’oublier des hier sans se moquer de tout
Il reste tant à faire pour aller jusqu'au bout.

Il faut taire le temps, se faisant si rapide
A moquer le présent sans le rendre stupide
Briser le miroir des ans, s’il est tant lucide.

Il faut taire le temps, se faisant si rapide
A moquer le présent sans le rendre stupide
Briser le miroir des ans, s’il est tant lucide.

En rêvant de son mieux, vers de jolies pensées
Un sourire dans ses yeux ne peut faire qu'avancer
La vie est ainsi faite, elle va, elle vient, elle fuit
Et même quand tout s'arrête, rien n'est jamais fini.

Mais regardons l'avenir, il reste tant de choses
Beaucoup d'éclats de rire qui font les vies en rose
Profitons du bonheur en vivant ce présent
Et sans penser à l'heure qui brisera ce temps.

Il faut taire le temps, se faisant si rapide
A moquer le présent sans le rendre stupide
En vivant les instants… en vivant simplement.

SANCTUARY

I want you
I think I see you everywhere
We want love
We want to see love everywhere
 
Under the sway of thy gentle wings
All the world comes together
 
Old friends, no more these sounds! 
Let us sing more cheerful songs 
More full of joy! 
More full of joy!
Joy, bright spark of divinity, daughter of Elysium 
Fire-inspired we tread thy Sanctuary 
Sanctuary…

Joy!

I want you
I think I see you everywhere
We want love
We want to see love everywhere

Under the sway of thy gentle wings
All the world comes together
 
All you millions, I embrace you 
Well this kiss is for all the world
And you millions, oh I embrace you all
This kiss is for everyone 
All the world…

Thanks to
- all the politicians who pissed me off
- war mongers and profiteers
- the mindless who follow and never ask a question
- Bill and Nano particles
- 2020 to now
- the biggest thanks goes to YOU for inspiration to stay alive and continue living. I took a deep dive, but came back up for air, polluted as it may be, and channeled the negative into music, where it's healthier for me.

Love one another and live free wherever you find it.

Something experimental.  I guess I would have to call it Jazz, although I don't know what real Jazz musicians would thing of the description.  I left things a bit loose as I didn't want it to be too mechanical.  Worm rhymes with squirm although my friend Stu says it reminds him of a spider.

Breaking Away

Alternative rock underlined by an expressive solo guitar and recessive text by @stefan-svetsky in an emotionally tuned interpretation of @Ladat

Lyrics: Štefan Svetský (@stefan-svetsky)

You would certainly agree that some of the best moments in everyone’s life are those which were not planned? They have extra taste, something sweeter than the others.

This song has a little something from this. It’s a flashback as it’s based on an “old” song from early 2019: “It Rolls”, an instrumental rock track without any words. It made its own path on the wide internet, softly, quietly, until a gentleman commented it with enthusiasm. This gave it a new impulse, some kind of acceleration. We started to discuss and exchange ideas, drafts of lyrics, few tones of melody, an attempt of singing. From attention and discussion to cooperation and collaboration, without even really thinking about it… How nice?

Once the project got clarified, it still took me quite some time to record vocals. Lot of trying and deleting, retrying and redeleting, bit of frustration and impatience! It even reached a point when I started to doubt, if this was really a good idea. Sometimes, when it doesn’t work, it’s for a good reason! But sometimes, a small extra inch of inspiration helps to unwind things. In this case, it was “Pražský výběr” and the inimitable style of Vilém Čok which crossed my mind. One evening later, the final recording was done. Only mastering was needed more before presenting it to the co-author of this song and waiting for his feedback, which was positive and finally publishing it for you…

I hope you will like the result of this partnership, in the form of an alternative rock underlined by an expressive solo guitar and a funny regressive text! But, before you listen to it, understand me well: I don't and I can't compare my skills with those legends and I mention them only as a tribute to their great source of inspiration. Speaking about encouragement, let’s not forget about the words of Helen Keller, who certainly knew what she was speaking about when she said: “Alone we can do so little: together we can do so much”!
