teenage ditty

This is the little music of Dr Kotek. Something calm in mood of the night, a bit more jazzy and modern with a bit more weird harmonies.

The Little Music of Dr Kotek

I've had the plan to write a lullaby for many years. After missing the timing for my own kids the idea has been a "that would be nice to do" thought ...until recently when our backyard deck came into the story.

For those that don't know, our deck overlooks our community and has just enough elevation so that we see over many of the rooftops and trees and the surrounding hills make a wonderful evening setting. There have been many evenings watching the sunset with Dee and the family. 

Not only do we have an amazing view, we also have one of the most incredible auditory experiences as well. From where we are at we can hear much of the neighborhood sounds, and more often than not, the sounds of the Norman Creek kids playing.  The sounds of kids playing together outside is something that was so foreign after so many years in California, it's been wonderful to experience it from the deck.

So what does all this have to do with a lullaby? 

For years I've known that the lullaby would be based upon the love, joy, and safety that Dee showed our kids while growing up. I think those things are the cornerstones for kids growing up strong and confident. The sounds of the Norman Creek kids, and the sheer joy of sitting and watching amazing sunsets with Dee, reignited the thoughts of kids being put to bed by their mothers. With the memories of Dee with our kids, and the thoughts of the Norman Creek moms with their kids in my head, the words and music of "As You Sleep" flowed out a few weekends ago. 

Although my writing partner Chris Meola and I are not quite done with the final instrument arrangements, I wanted to share what we have with you as we work to dot the I's and cross the T's. 

As always, many thanks to Dee for being the inspiration and indulging my creative whims and I'd also like to dedicate this one to the Kids and Moms of Norman Creek. Thanks for sharing your joy with the neighborhood!

LYRICS ..
check it out ....
kick it out ... 
can you handle the kill ?
is it making you pine ?
are we justified matter ?
are we falling behind ?
can you handle the difference ?
us and them soil 
two towers will topple 
for only one wall ..
..we are data 
we are lying 
we are danger 
er .. er .. er .. can you handle the kill ?
let's keep on pushing 
blindly ahead 
don't let it roll backwards 
keep it outa the red .. 
can you handle the difference ?
us and them soil 
two towers will topple (again and again)
for only one wall .

THE KILL (1) WEAR EAR GOGGLES :-)

It's always difficult to find people we are collaboratively compatible with ..  a compatibility of Spirit shall we say...  but from the moment I heard Gaz sing with his intense, captivating voice, I was hooked, and with the amazing production & direction given by Andy, I knew I was home.  It's such an honor and thrill for me whenever they ask me to join them on a song, and their style, musicianship, and sheer talent is always so inspirational, and infectious. The song has amazing vocal moments, and I dare say our vocal blend, and the mix by Andy, is heaven to me. To say this has a been a sheer Joy and a Thrill, is an understatement!!!   Gentleman, my friends, I thank you once again for allowing me to be part of the Kings..   You are both incredible xx. 

Ladies and Gentleman, I give you the Conscience of Kings..

Lyrics:
Stitch Your Name

V1
She said words can be beautiful but love is the real action
So stop talking now and show me that attraction
So I poured another glass of wine
I said tonight is the night then we combine
My God your so cheesy but being with you just makes easy

Chorus
If it’s on let’s think it
If it’s on let’s want it
If it’s on let’s do it
The tapestry of natures, embroidery
Stitch your name into my heart
The first letter is always the start

V2
I take that as compliment not treat it with contempt
Underneath the stars in a field in this tiny festival tent
Listening to the echoes of the weekend's event
Will stay with us forever and be always meant
And I don’t think I’ve ever this felt so content

Chorus to finish

teenage ditty
