What Changed

A song paying tribute to the eggs Mum said we all came from growing up as kids. A beautiful piece of unique nurture. Love ya Mum

Of course, my older siblings used to always say I came through the roof and convinced me I was an alien... 👽🤘🏻

Epic memories man 🎶🧬

Tonight, after Alma (4) heard the song and the explanation she said, "Dad what egg am I from"... I quickly said, Your a rainbow egg Alma (Thankfully our internet has pretty convincing rainbow eggs at the ready as I got a "show me" pretty fast 😆) and I'm not sure I've ever seen a bigger smile from a human 🌈🧬 Rainbow dreams for Alma  🔆

The Eggs

Pure maternal love
Pure power of nurture
Uniqueness sown
Each shell a picture we own

Brave brown egg first
Wise white seeds second
Third speckeldy thirst
Forth Tan found pleasant

Each of us always the best egg on Earth
Seeds of ourselves with pride of our worth
Best spreader of love known to existence
Unconditional nurture so fear finds resistance

Total belief in just what we are
Each egg the best human life hearted star
Empowered by label of virtuous good
Seed belief in ourselves
Pure pertinent childhood

No matter what's said
Reply always love
Mum cares for those shells
Subtle Penguin like purse
Best spreader of love known to our land
Mother made eggs
True taker of hand

Best spreader of love known to man
Thank you Mum for preening good plan

The human egg is a transparent yellow colour and is apparently visible without a microscope and is roughly the width of a human hair. It's also I believe the largest a normal cell ever gets from a human being

The Eggs

Back to the 80s and USA beautiful people, summer fun  living and being young.
half step down on this one  - Van Halen/ZZ Vibe with a slap of slash in the mix!

**LYRICS**

And as she turns away,
She gives me that smile again,
The twinkle in her eye,
As She licks her lips,
I feel the butterflies within..
I'm lost man, I'm in too deep.
..
Oooooohhhhhhh 

80s vibe, bleach blonde hair,
Blue eyes and Legs for miles,
Santa Monica boulevard,
Feel so fine all the Time,
Summer fun, waves crashing in,
Never want this to end,
want to smell your hair, just dive in... 

But you're just out of reach...
You Make my heart ache..
Sunning on the beach..
Look so fine,
You're just out of reach..yeah 

Evening draws in, showered and fresh
Spray on some cologne...
Hit the bars, feeling good
Is she around?
Then I see her on the dance floor
Like noone else in the room,
I think my heart just missed a beat,
Someone call the aaaambuuulaaaance!!!!! 

But you're just out of reach...
You Make my heart ache..
Sunning on the beach..
Look so fine,
You're just out of reach..yeah
Just out of reach
Just out of reaaaach 

But you're just out of reach...
You Make my heart ache..
Sunning on the beach..
Look so fine,
You're just out of reach..
Man I wanna make you mine.

'Just Out Of Reach'💔

LIVE  UP BEFORE U DIE

More solo stuff...

the background audio is a Catholic AM radio station (broadcasting through an emergency crank radio) starting off by selling the last remaining (still expensive) cabins for a Catholic Cruise. they then get into the topic of how they are not looking to shame or brutalize women into having more children but they do know one thing: The more children you have the more you win; Jesus wants you to be a winner. 

Interesting piece of media for ya there.
this is used to create a certain layer to the music that, on the surface, no one really bothers with actually making out the words. If you do that's extra awesome! this was the first recording I played directly to the track without forethought. Therefore, there is no premeditated meaning or purpose conveyed.  I have one kid, but I don't want any more for a million and one reasons... and if you have none that is good too... Don't let these goofballs ruin your day, you are doing just fine! but an interesting pull from the radio none the less!

Coincidentally 6 months ago I was staying at a hotel and there were tons of elderly Catholic couples, some singles, staying there the day before leaving on a cruise. I was being weird and taking pictures down at the lobby so that I could maybe use it somewhere for something strange like this.

Was It Ever, Really?

For your enjoyment, here is the final track on the Amor Vincit Omnia trilogy. Thank you for listening.

This song began its life when Chris put ass to chair and came up with it a while back. This is the latest of the massive song collection he laid on Eclectic Collective about a month and a half ago. Be prepared to hear a lot more of his songs coming through our fingers and voices, because we now have a plethora of great material from him. So, Chris came up with this arrangement on his acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and synth, but it was a pretty solid composition, even by his standards, and it had the magic already baked in.

  The first one of us to grab a hold of it was Carl, who immediately heard his vocal part, which he supplied with his always striking lyrics. JJ was the first instrumentalist to add his part, laying in the delightful organ, electric piano, and synth you hear throughout. Josh came out swinging next, adding his upright bass, which he bowed. He also added the delayed mandolin track you head trickling throughout, as well. Mark came along shortly after, adding his dramatic timpani, enchanting steel pan, cool triangle, arpeggiated synth, and synth effects to the mix. He also did some major editing, making room for Stephen's guitar solo, and adjusting some parts at the end. Mark also added some backing vocals, quoting George Harrison's Here Comes the Sun. If you listen closely, you can hear his Easter eggs in there. 

  At this point, the song sounded almost classical, especially Josh's bowed bass part. However, Ken still had something to say in here, adding his remarkable, driving drums to the whole thing. Josh, recognizing the sea change this created, added his fretless four-string to match Ken's kick. Stephen was able to blend the two in the production phase. But not before installing his absolutely thrilling electric guitar solo in there. Stephen did a wonderful job of producing, mixing, and mastering this for us, as always, when it was all in the can.

  This is the first song Carl has gotten to sing that Chris has written. We're all super excited to unleash this combo on the world. This song reminds Josh of one of his favorite bands, The Flaming Lips, too, which makes it a special treat for him, as well. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it. 

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Great nuclear beast

East horizon you meet

New life


Shine on us

Saving us from night


Birds take the first song

Beaks waking other ones

Wonder returns


Good morning sun

Just shine dear one

Sun shine on


Good greatest grace for thee

Dusts to Star

Our seed

Evolution breathes

Mass ejection beams


Our sun

Good morning

Fill good air with photon

The greatest good

Solar bent space time flood

Space fawn


Birds cannot be wronged

Once your fine light has songed

Wonder wound

Morning sound


Our dear Sun

Shine on





Good Morning Sun (Eclectic Collective)

Little fingers on my skull
They slither and they crawl
What's the protocol
When you feel it all the time
That shiver down your spine?

I wrestled with a foe
Angel or demon, I don't know
But it pierced my soul
Now I sense it deep
It begins to creep

It's hanging in the air
Whispers everywhere
I can hear those chimes
The melodies divine
Those sacred rhymes

Now let me hold onto this tune
That rings through the gloom
A song of endless blue
Let me hear those chimes
Those harmonies divine
All the sacred rhymes
