Endless

I tried an experiment to see if adding a little scale to noise would work as a replacement for hard chords in a song. I envied the creators of rock music. I realized that incorporating a genre that I envy is a valuable motif.

I want to feel the elephant's anger (315)

In The Clouds (2002)

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

It's 4am by my bedside clock
And I'm lying here awake
The radio hums with DJ talk
It's hours before daybreak

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I've tried a lot of sleeping pills
The doctor said to take
Drown it all with alcohol and still
I'm here awake

I've tried so hard to drift away
But I never get too far My restless mind just won't obey
I give up and play guitar

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I'm all out of luck
With counting sheep
Try as I might
I just can't sleep

I Just Can't Sleep

File Updated: ebow added


Added verse for Ukraine as well as Palestine. The hope is they get the Peace we got from these words after my Grandad wrote them 🙏 Added a Native American chant over the Ukraine verse. Wen-da-ya-Ho
I have bolted on the Ukraine verse. I'll go for a full fresh rebuild of the idea soon

The Orange Wolves
"Oh captive Gaels across the border
Suppressed by wolves of law and order
With sheepish tongue and gun in hand
How slyly they divide our land!
Aided by our Christian faith
Gods message changed from love to hate
This sinful 'state' cannot remain
May God release it from it's pain!
Let secret truths be now confessed
From barracades by sons supressed
While smouldering homes cry out to Heaven
Incense to God by the Orange Devil!
And as the flames of freedom grow
They melt the chains which bound you so
Fear not, dear children, brave and fine
The wolf cannot devour the Lion!" [Papa (Bill Stapleton)1969]

The Blue Wolves
"Oh grafting Gazan's out a little further
Suppressed by wolves, The present "order"!
With sheepish tongue and gun in hand
How slyly they divide your land
Aided by your Muslim faith
May God's message spread love and light
We see your State!
You must remain!
May God release all from their pain
Let secret truths be found and blessed
Move barricades, Bring the food, What beats in your chest?
While smouldering homes cry out to Heaven
Incense to God by this days' Blue Devil!
And as our flames of freedom show
They melt the chains which bound us so
Fear not, dear children,
Its brave you define.
The wolf can never devour our Palestine 🇵🇸"

Fear not, dear children,
Its brave you define.
The wolf can never devour a true Lion

The Red Wolves
Unite with Ukraine
They're bruising further
Weathered by wolves, the present "order"
Indecision,
Guns to head while shaking hands
How slyly they just took your land.
Aided by our ailing aid
May you find power and love
A full state.
We see their hate
Prisoner army of pain
May they retreat to borders sane
May your grain sail free to nest
Our hearts have food
Our grace to your best 
While smouldering homes cry out to Heaven
Incense to God by the Red Devil
As the flames of freedom grow
They melt the chains which bound you so
Fear not, dear children, brave and fine
The wolf cannot devour the Lion!

 [Adapted from Bills poem for the present day - TBD 2025] Free Palestine. We got there. So will you guys. Loads of love from Ireland. Free 🇵🇸

Cast of Characters:
Joe Stroffolino-- @joseph-stroffolino -- Taylor 114ce acoustic guitar, main vocals, harmony vocals, lyrics, composition
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – Fender HSS Telecaster electric guitar
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– Tom Anderson Custom T electric guitar, mix, mastering, & production
Mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Mark – piano
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –- four string Fender Precision Bass with a plectrum

This song began as one of Joe's catchy songs, originally written with all the instruments. He & SoundCloud musician Michele Ansani wrote the lyrics about becoming a musician. Joe offered this song to Josh who immediately shared it with the EC gang.
Ken went to work first, adding his driving, excting drums. Tez was up next with his clever fills you hear throughout the first half of the song. Stephen then matched Tez's energy with guitar fills in the second half of the song. Then Mark stepped up with his innovative piano solo, using an arpeggiator to get a kind of mechanical sound that matched the AI theme. Finally, one of our resident pros, Stephen, expertly mixed and mastered it. 
This is the first song we've ever done with Joe, & don't expect it to be the last. We all really enjoyed putting it together, in no small part because Joe is such a competent, receptive, & gracious collaborator. We all hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Lyrics by Michele Ansani & Joe Stroffolino
Music by Joe Stroffolino (@joseph-stroffolino)

When I was thirteen I picked up my first guitar
it was my mother's, it only had one nylon string 
I tried to play it like a rock star
I learned to play the Coca-Cola jingle
So I could teach the world to sing
When I was fourteen, I put on six new strings
I learned to play Beatles, I learned a Bob Dylan song
I sounded out of tune but I tried to carry on
At fifteen I wrote my first original tune 
So bad it sounded like it might have been written by a baboon
When I was sixteen, I got a new guitar for my birthday
The metal strings sawed through my fingers 
But I continued to play
And the calluses formed & every day I learned a brand new chord
I was obsessed with that guitar & I never grew bored.
I wrote songs every day & most of them were a mess
But I believed that through hard work, I could achieve success
Malcom Gladwell wrote a book that said it takes ten thousand hours
To become an expert at your craft
(“Chorus”)
But now all it takes is two commands & an enter
And in two minutes you have ten versions of the same damn new song,
You just have to choose the type
folk, rock, rap, pop, metal, jazz, trap or blues.
You don't even need to write the lyrics, 
your push a few buttons let the AI choose.
And people will think your songs are great even though you didn’t write or play a single note.
When I was 20, I did my first concert, it was time
it occurred in a village square
there were four cats all friends of mine
I was still using the plectrum & sometimes I got the chords wrong
at thirty I finally wrote what I thought was a decent song
It had a very well thought out structure
And a catchy vibe & beat
It was overly verbose but when I played it people tapped their feet
In my forties I stopped wasting my time
Work was more fun I was doing just fine
I had a steady paycheck that could feed me 
And the record companies didn’t need me
In my fifties once again my musical juices started flowing
I bought the necessary equipment 
I was eager to get going
I recorded all my strumming & saved it onto my PC
The internet & technology were advancing rapidly
I took those special songs I’d written of which I was most proud
Posted them Instagram, You Tube, Tik Tok & SoundCloud
I asked myself if a tree falls in the forest & no one’s around
Does it make a sound?
(repeat “Chorus”)

Título: Dejando atrás los problemas

(Verso 1)
El problema no es amigo mío
Corté el cordón, tracé la línea
No estaré encadenado a la rutina
La libertad es el tesoro que voy a encontrar

(Versículo 2)
Dejé el peso en la orilla de ayer
Encerré el pasado detrás de esa puerta
No más sombras, no más guerra
Estoy persiguiendo la paz para siempre

(Estribillo)
Giraré la cabeza y me iré
Sin cadenas que me sujeten, sin juegos a los que jugar
Los años de drama que dejo atrás
El problema no es amigo mío

(Versículo 3)
Escucho los susurros del viento
Me dice que aquí es donde empiezo
Un horizonte fresco, claro y amplio
No más fantasmas para hacer autostop

(Puente)
No soy prisionero de mi pasado
El futuro me está llamando por fin
Quemaré los mapas que me ataron
Y llevar las estrellas como mi nueva corona

(Estribillo)
Giraré la cabeza y me iré
Sin cadenas que me sujeten, sin juegos a los que jugar
Los años de drama que dejo atrás
El problema no es amigo mío

TITLE: Leaving Problems Behind

LYRICS: 
(Verse 1)
Trouble ain't no friend of mine
I cut the cord I draw the line
I won't be shackled to the grind
Freedom's the treasure I'm gonna find

(Verse 2)
I left the weight on yesterday's shore
Locked the past behind that door
No more shadows no more war
I’m chasing peace forevermore

(Chorus)
I'll turn my head and walk away
No chains to hold me no games to play
The years of drama I leave behind
Trouble ain't no friend of mine

(Verse 3)
I hear the whispers of the wind
It tells me this is where I begin
A fresh horizon clear and wide
No more ghosts to hitch a ride

(Bridge)
I’m not a prisoner of my past
The future's calling me at last
I'll burn the maps that tied me down
And wear the stars as my new crown

(Chorus)
I'll turn my head and walk away
No chains to hold me no games to play
The years of drama I leave behind
Trouble ain't no friend of mine
