This song tales you on a crazy journey and i loved it!

Absolutely love the creative musical direction that you sailed this tune out deep into. Super psychedelic, dreamy, and atmospheric moods that beckons the listener ever-further into the sound as the piece progresses !! Really original song writing, and with terrific vocal & instrumental performances all the way around.

Crossing time-zones
Godforsaken deserts
Midnight in transit stations
The illusion of freedom
Written in blood written in stone

It's just an idea
It's just an idea

The twisted wreck
Of a helicopter gunship
A distant call to prayer
Sweet liquorice and bitter cigarettes

It's just an idea [...]

He carries her in his heart
She's all he had now all he has
White knuckles holding fast
His mother's photograph in a young man’s hands

Now everything is lost
Now everything is lost

They say half the future’s buried in the past
But the fallen will not weep for us
When it’s our time to choose

It's just an idea [...]

Sweet Licorice And Bitter Cigarettes (with Wheelwright)(Fictive Sisters)

You lift in the spray sailing my way
You're not what you seem
You're a dream in the steam that's blowing away

Why do you sail after all?
Just to ride on the waves
Feel the rise and fall
Long before you embarked
You had already heard the call

Imagine the world beyond your view
Imagine being served in a way that suits you
Imagine this all coming true
Imagine it rolling your way
There you might stay

We live in the weave of a spell
Don't regret your demise
It was you who'd grow wise
So the visions propel

How will it end after all?
You would live in your dream
You would sail in my thrall
Long before you heard the call
You would live the fall

Now it's coming in view
And now will you stay true?
Imagine the final act of this play
Imagine it rolling your way
Here you might stay

Siren Song

Lyrics/ copyright jo richter:

following the nutritional trail
a trilobite moves from a place
like that to a place like this

agile senses in a chitin shell
alarm in a world made of hunger
muscles react: volvation

when is it safe to stretch out again?
how long do you remain in stasis?
what is duration in trilobite terms?

you need to show strength, to feed,
to moult, to live your trilobite
lifestyle in cambrian waters

when does that urge undo precaution?
a theory of mind for trilobites
does not exist: we are not aware

of their mental cues, their inner states -
do they deliberate or just change shape
as some behavioural timer runs down?

in ancient seas, in its own time
a trilobite moves from a state
like that to a state like this

Trilobite Quandary        a poem by Jo Richter

The Famous Butter Delay

It was an honor and a pleasure to sing to the sound of a delightful composition by two wonderful artists such as Debra Buesking(@debra_buesking) on piano and David Dunham(@david-dunhamuser589535203) on guitar. Thanks for this priceless opportunity.
Below the Italian / English lyric

Dimmi dove sei
Torno a casa e non ti trovo più
Le tue calze sopra il letto
Sempre accesa la TV

Non dimentico 
Le tue promesse in bilico
e le domeniche
Sempre spese solo dove decidi tu
Forse ho il cuore troppo piccolo
Per lasciarti la tua libertà
casca il mondo 
quando te ne vai

Mille baci e poi
All’improvviso il vuoto fra di noi 
Non so perché rimango appeso qui
Il tuo canto mi ha ingannato 
e come Ulisse mi salverò
Ma poi ricadrò
nella tua tela ancora

Sei sparita ormai
irraggiungibile
ma è sicuro io ti troverò per dirti che
che non mi arrendo e voglio solo te
Puoi scommetterci
Vorrei sentire ancora i brividi
Mentre stringo la tua mano
 per non lasciarti più
………………..
Dimmi dove sei 


Tell me where you are
I come home and I can't find you anymore
Your socks over the bed
Still on the TV

I do not forget
Your promises in the balance
and Sundays
Always spending only where you decide
Maybe my heart is too small
To leave you your freedom
the world falls
when are you leaving

A thousand kisses and then
Suddenly the void between us
I don't know why I'm hanging here
Your singing deceived me
and like Ulysses I will save myself
But then I'll fall back
in your web again

You're gone now
unattainable
but it's sure I'll find you to tell you that
that I'm not giving up and I just want you
you can bet
I wish I could still feel the chills
As I hold your hand
  not to leave you anymore
……………… ..
Tell me where you are

In January this year, we lost the great musician and drummer of YMO, Yukihiro Takahashi. As if following him, last month, Ryuichi Sakamoto also passed away. Having lost two respected musicians, I find myself without emotional support and have been creating music daily, tracing their music and lives. Unconsciously, the songs I create are heavily influenced by their music. This song is one of them. When I listen to the finished piece, I feel it somewhat resembles YMO's "Expecting Rivers." These days, I find "HOPE" in the Milky Way, the heavenly river that spans the sky.

Rivers of Aspiration

(p. sk3tch)

(lyrics)

i jus represent the thoughts
flowin round yea they come 2 me 
tell me how to share energy
love company
everyone who needs more
let the world see
search 4 clarity
jus trying to learn these
things that ive came to
now I know it comes
with time
patience and experience
put u in line
jus follow the purity
in the back of your mind
unique cortex
just appreciate mine

every time that I get a chance
psilocybin show me truth
make me wanna dance
when I realize how free we really are
if we see da positive impact its never far

dont stray away
love for another day
time dont judge
let it guide you through the rain
listen to the pain
with a open mind
see that ur brain
only wanna show u the light

endless purity of perspective (outro)

Welcome to the alternative reality that is the Dragonsail Puppets! We have a YouTube channel with cagey comedy and spirited music videos as well. Please feel free to check it out and join us on this party boat!

See their music videos and YouTube comedy series!:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVBel-tzj24Gj9QR8RTRpow

On Earth One, all of the music and lyrics are written by Dragonsail, aka Greg Hester. Likewise, all of the playing and vocal performances and recording and mixing are done by Dragonsail as well. But that's not as interesting as what's happening on Earth Two.

On Earth Two, these songs are created and performed by a scheming diva named Surrenda and her enthusiastic but clueless dog sidekick Bruce. Additional songwriting is provided by their septuagenarian feline keyboardist, Catatonia, and Onree - the sweet pup with the mean shaker. There's also some old geezers in the band who've been with Surrenda for a couple of decades who actually play real instruments, but they mostly loom in the shadows.

The range of styles in their music includes funk, psychedelia, hard rock, prog rock and disco, which they tear away at with whatever instruments and found objects they have stowed away with them aboard their ship, the Club Dragonsail.
