To love is not to look into each other's eyes, but to look together in the same direction.

Direction

This is another collaboration that was written by STONERJAZZ, who is without a doubt one of the most major dudes out there 
Once again joined by the amazingly creative Uziel and the magical voice of Janine Levinson.  Also a first for me - working with the mighty Tea Are Sea

It's an awesome group of creative pros and I'm once again excited to be asked to play on a track with this crew.


Uziel sings, and co-produced with TMS (amazing work from her that saved us from disaster)

ASTEROIDS
LYRics. by SToNeRJAZZ

Some asteroids in outer space are made of cheese.
We only need to capture one of these
And we can feed everyone in the world for free.
I'm hoping it won't be a Roquefort or a Brie,
A nice sharp cheddar would be just fine with me.

Make a list check the box then move on
Lock the door, mop the floor, do the chores then move on.
Love the world if you're able, if you're not please set the table
Time to eat, wash your feet, eat your meat
Repeat with rice and beans and broccoli.

High speed snow and sleet outside
While we practice worldwide genocide
In the name of economic prosperity
How bout you, if you were boss what would You do?

Wood nymph hiding stealthily behind a giant Douglas fir
Off to the west. A most majestic tree.
She took my hand that girl with diamonds in her eyes
And said now follow me to a clearing where they were singing songs of love and war.

Getting back trying to unlock the doors
Crucifixion is the perfect antidote for lethargy
Oh can't you see.
If we had our druthers we'd be getting back to where we were before
Even though that bridge is burning brightly in the middle of a balmy night
The dog wood bloomed
Reminded me it used to be her favorite tree
When she still loved me like a bell that rings in distant memories

Warm Feelings

„Fluss von Schlüsseln“ oder Klaviertasten im spielerischen Flow

Manchmal sind alle Sinne auf diesen einen Moment fokussiert.
Ich betrachte die Klaviertasten. Schwarze und weiße Tasten. 
Es ist viel mehr.  
KLAVIER : C L A V I S  ( von lateinisch clavis “SCHLÜSSEL“ mittellateinisch clavis „Taste“

Die Schlüssel zu einem magischen Reich der Klänge.
Es besteht aus so vielen Materialien. Holz von alten Bäumen, vermutlich Wäldern die gar nicht mehr existieren. Was vermag dieses alte Holz zu erzählen. Im Feuer entstand der Gussrahmen mit Kreuzbesaitung. Ein großer Resonanzboden verstärkt die Schwingungen, während mit den Tasten die Hämmer mit gebogenen Filzboden die Saiten schlugen und so alles zu Klang wird.
Viele Menschen haben dieses Instrument mit viel harter Arbeit und Inspiration entstehen lassen. 
Cristofori-Schüler Domenico del Melal. Matthias Müller in Wien und John Isaac Hawkins in Philadelphia. Pleyel und Pape, Heinrich Steinweg und sein Sohn Henry Steinway.
Alles hat eine Geschichte und dies möchte das Klavier mir und uns erzählen.

Ich setzte mich an das Klavier und berühre die Tasten. 
Nein, ich spiele nicht. Das Klavier spielt mit mir, denn es möchte jetzt durch mich eine von vielen Geschichten erzählen.
Mal zart, dann fordernd, zuweilen mal ekstatisch mit einem starken Hang zum dramatischen, ganz leise fast flüsternd und dann wieder liebevoll.
Es ist ein Rausch der Sinne. 
Somit haben die Tasten mich berührt und dieses Stück entstehen lassen.

Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

"Flow of keys" or piano keys in a playful flow ?

Sometimes all senses are focused on this one moment.
I look at the piano keys. Black and white buttons.
It is much more.
PIANO : C L A V I S ( from Latin clavis "KEY" Middle Latin clavis "key"

The keys to a magical realm of sounds.
It's made of so many materials. Wood from old trees, probably forests that no longer exist. What can this old wood tell. The sprue with cross stringing was created in the fire. A large soundboard amplifies the vibrations, while the keys are used to hit the strings with curved felt-backed hammers, making everything sound.
Many people have created this instrument with a lot of hard work and inspiration.
Cristofori student Domenico del Melal. Matthias Müller in Vienna and John Isaac Hawkins in Philadelphia. Pleyel and Pape, Heinrich Steinweg and his son Henry Steinway.
Everything has a story and this is what the piano wants to tell me and us.

I sit down at the piano and touch the keys.
No, I don't play. The piano plays with me because it wants to tell one of many stories through me.
Sometimes tender, then demanding, sometimes ecstatic with a strong tendency to be dramatic, very quietly almost whispering and then loving again.
It is an intoxication of the senses.
So the keys touched me and created this piece.

Thank you for your valued attention.

Sobre la canción:  The lyrics are taken from a poem of a young Welsh poet D. R. Geraint Jones, ‘Let Me Not See Old Age’, written in spring 1944. Geraint Jones was just 22 years old. Marzo 2023

The complete poem is as follows:

Let Me Not See Old Age

Let me not see old age: Let me not hear
The proffered help, the mumbled sympathy,
The well-meant tactful sophistries that mock
Pathetic husks who once were strong and free,

And in youth’s fickle triumph laughed and sang,
Loved, and were foolish; and at the close have seen
The fruits of folly garnered, and that love,
Tamed and encaged, stale into grey routine.

Let me not see old age; I am content
With my few crowded years; laughter and strength
And song have lit the beacon of my life.

Let me not see it fade, but when the long
September shadows steal across the square,
Grant me this wish: they may not find me there.
