VAMPIRES & SHRIKES FLOAT AROUND THE CITY

Remixes

The Funky Cat Dance (Live Remix)

A tribute to all those hours in the life that we loose with utterly senseless stuff and that vanish into oblivion. Not the hours that we loose on necessary evils like household chores but rather the ones like doomsscrolling where we know, we could and should have used them better. But then in the end - does it really make a difference in the long run?
 
Three times the same motive with different turns after a few seconds respectively (at @0:00, @0:57, @1:50).  And an appendix  @2:19 with an open quesion and the hint of an answer.

Again, this composition will come with lyrics in due course, however, since I don't have access to my studio currently, this will take some time - will likely publish some other things before.

Thanks to all of you for listening and supporting my work!


Elegy for the Hours (Contemporary Piano Miniature)

You've read the story of Jesse James
How he lived, how he died
You liked it, huh, you're asking for more
Well, listen to the story of Bonnie and Clyde

So here it is, Clyde has a girlfriend
She's beautiful and her name is Bonnie
Together, they form the Barrow gang
Their names, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

Me, when I knew Clyde back then
He was a loyal, honest and straight guy
It must be believed that it's society
That has definitely damaged me

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

What hasn't been written about her and me
It is claimed that we kill in cold blood
It's not funny, but we are forced
To silence the one who starts to yell

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

Every time a policeman gets killed
When a garage or a bank gets robbed
For the police, there's no mystery
It's signed Clyde Barrow, Bonnie Parker

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

Now, every time we try to settle down
To settle quietly in a furnished place
Within three days, here comes the rat-a-tat-tat
Of machine guns coming back to attack

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

One of these days, we will fall together
I don't care, it's for Bonnie that I tremble
What does it matter if they skin me
Me Bonnie, I tremble for Clyde Barrow

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

Anyway, they couldn't get out of it
The only solution was to die
But more than one followed them to hell
When Barrow and Bonnie Parker died

Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde

Thank you so much for listening! 🫶

Lyrics: 

I wrapped myself in self-pity
Heard a heavy ringing bell
Didn't think I could be unwrapped
Hidden walls that never fell..

So many layers of emotions
I knew I had to start
And when the first layer was removed
The rest began to fall apart..

Unwrap-app-ing  myself
Unwrap-app-ing myself

Now my soul is almost open
All the layers taken off
But I have left some walls
In case I don't have enough...

A new story will be written
New layers will come
But with an unwrapped soul
I can wrap myself with love...

Unwrap-app-ing myself
Unwrap-app-ing myself

Unwrap -app-Ing Myself  (Original)

Here's the latest in Texas Tea flavor, called Black Coffee and it is a little dark and mysterious.  Terry had been on a fantastic voyage for a while, and this is our first since his return.  Hope you enjoy.  See the entire Texas Tea playlist here - https://soundcloud.com/texmex-shaman/sets/texas-tea-sea

Black Coffee - A Texas Tea Production with Tea R Sea

I decided to take another stab at this song for Halloween.
New instruments and added a strumming guitar track.    Completely new vocals and updated chorus.
***
In the dark of night, there's things that don't feel right.
Like a creature of the night with a healthy appetite
I saw a beautiful woman standing by the dance floor
I met her gaze she smiled at me
I knew the rest was history as my heart beat quickly in my chest.

The night past by in one big blur and in the morning there was no sign of her
I tried so hard to convince myself that it was only just a dream

Baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

As the day began to wane and darkness fell like bloody rain
I could feel a sense of foreboding in the air
I turned around and she was there
Next to me with long dark hair
Staring at me with a hungry pointy grin (hungry pointy grin)

Baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace
Now she stops by every night and something tells me things aren’t right
Cause it’s been more than a week since I’ve seen the light of day

Now that you’ve heard my story, I hope you believe it’s true
My memory’s kind of foggy. There’s not much I can do
I’m sick of being stuck in this cold dark place
I want to feel the sun shine on my face
And I’m searching for a cure to what’s ailing me (what’s ailing me)

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

Baby I want to see the sun shine on your face
Cause maybe you’re a vampire dressed in lace

Vampire Dressed In Lace (2025)

TRICK and TREAT

Vi sjunger om sorg och glädje. ( 1996 ) Eddy Mango - Margareta Theorin ( Eddy )

Wow, this is it, the final song I will be posting for the untitled album Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & the Wormling and I have been working on! We posted the first song, “Ghosting Out,” from this set on January 4, 2021. I started this set of 12 songs in 2020, during the pandemic, using demo tracks that Wou-Wou graciously allowed me to use. I can’t, yet totally can, believe that it took 5 years to finish and finally post all the songs. I am still not sure if all 12 songs will be included in the album since the total run time is about 43 minutes and I like albums to be a little closer to 30 minutes. We still also need to decide on the track sequence. Eventually the album will be posted the album on Bandcamp for free. 

I have written it many times before and I will write it again, it has been an immense pleasure and honor and blast to work with Sticknice, Bitzone, and Wou-Wou on this set of songs. I feel so lucky to have had this opportunity.

Lyrics:

I don’t wanna have to do this
But I would be terribly remiss
If I just pretended to shoot and miss 
Maybe I could find somebody nobody’ll reminisce 
Maybe I could find somebody deserving the abyss 
The kiss of deaths sweet lips 
The heat of cold bullets
Rationally tearing you from the grips 
Of life meaningless in this soulless culture gone amiss 
I’ve been hunting these woods since my childhood 
Living as any self respecting and god fearing man should
sovereign and secured in responsibility for one’s own livelihood  
The devil wants you to believe in falsehoods 
and city life leads to no good
The heathens all had me misunderstood 
I wouldn’t want to be with them if I could

It feels like its been me and the bird forever now 
And i can’t allow myself to let him down 
I have him in my sight 
But there is two of ‘em 
Damn it 
What am I going to do with ‘em 
I’m going to have shoot both of ‘em 
I can’t leave a witness
Gotta move with swiftness 
At least this 
male’s a total stud 
and bird will pleased 
As he falls with a thud as his chest spews out blood 
and soil turns to mud
This is the right thing to do, isn’t it
After all I made an agreement 
I can’t permit 
Bird to throw a fit
or It’ll be me my head 
that sits on that wall 
And I really wouldn’t want him to leave me 
and be alone again

The Shrike Pt. 4

Heartscore, Stricknice, Bitzone, Wou-Wou & The Wormling, and the Couch King - The Shrike Pt. 4

Time it trembled as it took a tiny step
then another and another and another
and one by one illusions crumble
from the precipice they stumbled

overwhelmed by solitude without desire
the beginning of regret eventually becomes itself
as the grip begins to Slip
mortality is anxious for an outcome

started as a crawler then a totter to a toddler
to a walker then a runner
to a sprinter to the speed of light
and further on and back again

eventually to the brink of understanding
in a moment of the ultimate expanding
landing firmly after crashing through the curtain
finding something unexpected and perplexing
in the ether south of heaven
in the ally of a backstreet in the Crystal City-

where we're waiting in the Q 
one and all for further guidance
impatient and inspired by passions
and the fires of the hearts desires--

in the Crystal city (Time it Trembled)--from the half life project on Bandcamp

My old SC mate Micah played drums to test a friend’s recording set, and sent me some cuts full of improvised breaks and tempos. I love time changes, yet this was really challenging!

I finally chose two of them and jammed with bass until I learnt his story telling.
Then, I clicked on the red button, again and again.
