Das Haar in der Suppe (106 bpm)

Das Haar in der Suppe,
es muss gefunden werden...., Such!

Die Stecknadel im Heuhaufen..., Such!
...muss gefunden werden!

Das Licht am Ende des Tunnels,
wer hat es bloß angelassen..., Such!

nettle seeds (copyright Jo Richter)

he got locked out of her garden
before this springtime's floral bloom
as he saw her soft glance harden
saw different patterns on her loom

he found some fallow, barren wasteland
on a hill of thistles, nettles
to cultivate defiant plants and
to get scarred by willful brambles

go feed on nettle seed
thistle oil and fibre weed
there is nothing else you need
nutrient rich and bittersweet

haggard, thin and somewhat healthy
his medicine was on demand
to overcome fatigue and palsy
when there is nothing left to want

go feed on nettle seed
thistle oil and fibre weed
there is nothing else you need
nutrient rich and bittersweet

here comes the last of the three works on ‘retrospective future’.

background: as alarming as the scenarios are that scientists predict for the year 2100 if there is no rapid change in the way we treat our environment, this future still feels like abstract sci-fi, just beyond our imagination – more than twice as far away as the year 2001 was when kubrick's ‘a space odyssey’ came out.

but then, we watch our granddaughter, who just turned three, riding her scooter, screaming with joy. we realize how incredibly quickly time has passed since we were her age. and we have to think that in 2100, she will be only slightly older than we are today. and suddenly, 2100 becomes just one heartbeat away, an infinitely sad one.

I wrote 'scooting aleece' which originally dealt with a wild friend of us 40 years ago and we loved singing it at our all-night parties for two, albeit with different lyrics. recently, I rewrote the lyrics as a dedication to our granddaughter for the reasons mentioned above. to her and to all other kids her age.

while working on the AI vocals for the original 4/4 arrangement, for some reason I kept hearing a 3/4 beat in my head, which completely turned the entire compositional concept on its head. so, after creating the first version, which was faithful to the original, I created a second one that was completely different. and because it also featured a vocal premiere, I’d like to share this second version first. the first one will come later, if anyone is interested.

Windy hair, sunny beams in the air
There is no better free
Endless now, every moment a wow
Feeling all you see

Life’s a dance, every turn full of news
Life’s a grand carousel
Days as nights, time’s a far-away thing
There’s no end, little belle
All your world’s just well

Scooting Aleece
Life’s a big ease
Scooting Aleece
Until one day
They gonna take 
Your smile away

We all know, we are burning your world
Making bucks of fire
Drown your dreams in the floods of our greed 
Stocks will rise ever higher

We’ll be gone, long ago, like this song
Just a mote in time
You’ll still there, bear it all along
Have to pay for our crimes

Scooting Aleece
Life’s a big ease
Scooting Aleece 
Until one day
They gonna take 
Your smile away

Scooting Aleece
we wish we could freeze
Scooting Aleece 
This happy day
They couldn’t take
Your smile away

Scooting Aleece
Fly with the bees
Scooting Aleece
Dance under trees
Scooting Aleece
All days like these

Scooting Aleece

When an unknown wind gently caresses my cheek, I feel glad to be alive.

Ordinary happiness is a gentle breath. (358)
