Consider that this song is ten iterations of a pattern, representing the hands of the laborer as well as ten-based systems of measurement.

Lyrics
--------------------------
I cut the tree and I hammer the nail
I fetch the water and I carry the pail
Harvest the wheat, and I bundle the bale

Fasten the saddle, the bridle and bit
I shoe the horses and I shovel their shit
I dig forever in the bottomless pit

I'm turning wrenches and I'm fueling the jet
My brow is furrowed and it's blistered with sweat
I'm on a boat with a hook and a net

I'm in the engine room, I'm driving the train
I'm climbing poles in the wind and the rain
I load containers from a towering crane

Repair the derricks for the men who get paid
I'm tugging triples up a slippery grade
I built the factory where the factories are made

I'm in the kitchen now preparing your meal
With hogs to slaughter and potatoes to peel
I hone the blade and I sharpen the steel

BARDS:Of The Shimmering Seraphs

The Laborer

■歌詞
「夜明け前」
過ぎて行くわ　何もかも
忘れられない事も

楽しかった思い出を
胸に刻んで

あたためて　こころ
何も見えなくても

夜明け前の　ひと時を
あたためていて

■ lyrics
"Before dawn"
Everything will pass
Even if it's unforgettable for you

happy memories
please engrave it on your chest

Warm up your heart
even if you can't see anything

a moment before dawn
keep warm your heart

This piece is based on the original by Mrs Rhymes introduced above, with my guitar playing overdubbed.
A big thank you to Mrs Rhymes for agreeing to release this recording :)

Some time ago, I needed to do some thinking about my DTM system and was reviewing my music data.  At that time, I suddenly noticed this song by Mrs Rhymes.  About a year ago, I think.  I had a preliminary recording of my guitar to go along with this wonderful piece.  Remembering that, I played it back and listened.  I didn't like my guitar playing, even though it was just a temporary recording for notes.  I don't think the sounds and phrases I used at that time match the original song.  Compared to that, the original song is still great.  So I grabbed my guitar and started recording.  A few hours later, I was in the process of uploading my freshly finished work here.

The key of this song is C#, and I think that what we should be aware of as a performance style is "B♭m/C# pentatonic".
I do not mix tapping, sweeping, or other fancy playing techniques in my guitar playing with this outstanding piece. I tried to keep the accompaniment very simple. This excellent piece, which I picked up as an example this time, will be finished with two things in mind: "B♭m/C# pentatonic". However, in a blues scale song, one song uses four pentatonic forms. Therefore, first of all, I believe that it is very important to be aware of "two things" on a daily basis and to practice guitar playing repeatedly.

And before we understand it in words, what we value most is the encounter with works and artists that we can continue to enjoy playing along with our favorite music as many times as we want, even ten times if necessary. Right?

LYRIC
It took me half my life 
To finally gain insight
I only saw myself as others did
And I mostly stayed hid

I spent half my life
Upset and uptight
I learned it’s stupid to walk on eggshells
Every egg eventually breaks
And if that takes you half your life
That’s what it takes

Can't say exactly when
I knew what I didn’t then
A dawning realization
An opening of the mind
It only took me half my life for me to find

Time isn’t playing
It’s counting the days
If you don’t know what I’m saying
(Well) you won’t be young always
You sure won’t!

As the years accrue
In the remaining few
I won’t let regret confine me
I’ll amble slowly toward the light
Let the past all fade to black
I can’t go back
I love this last half of my life
So that’s all right


Half My Life

Another try at a more electronic vibe for this month’s song. I’ve actually mixed this one with headphones in mind. If you get a chance to listen in this way you might hear more of the more subtle effects I’ve worked into the song. I’m trying something different here from the last few songs so I always welcome  your feedback on how successful I’ve been. 

Hooked

Lyrics:

I was king of the world, walked the land so free
Mountains bowed to me, no danger to see
But I felt the winds change, heard the sky break wide
A fireball’s coming, there’s nowhere to hide

The ground shakes beneath my feet
The air's grown stale, yet bittersweet
And I can see the end, it’s written in flames
Nothing we built will ever remain

I called the comet just a spark
A flicker meant to light the dark
I said that God would let us be
That fire was never meant for me
We crowned the beast and closed one eye
Then dared the world to split the sky
But soon the leopards bare their teeth
And tear the lies from underneath

We carved our thrones from wax and pride
Then struck the sparks we couldn’t hide
Laughed at crows that lined the wires
Mocked the smoke before the fires

The fireball splits the skies
To advertise my lies
are just maggots and flies

Now I see the end 
is written in flames
Nothing we built will ever remain

First came silence, fear and dread
The world shuddered and mourned the dead
Crows took flight with silver cries
To peck the rot and eat the flies

Then came the dawn, with truth ablaze
Children yelled through smoke and haze
Science grew roots, the wise made rain
And broke the world out from my chain

They scrawled my name on walls of shame
Unmasked the lies that fed my name
My echo burned, my shadow banned
No idols left, no thieving hand

I fed the lies until they screamed
I kiss the storm I make-believed
The old wax throne, just melt and bone
Ground to dust by minds full grown

The fireballs coming
I made it so
Truth is not a democratic show
It is a force of nature though
It doesn’t ask
It only shows

Fireball

Je fais honneur à la chanson française et aussi aux Followers "Français" 😊

Petite parenthèse : Je suis d'origine Vietnamienne, née au Laos 
où j'ai vécu pendant 10 ans étant petite.
Je vis en France depuis un certain temps et un temps certain...
Et mes goûts musicaux sont anglo-saxons. (Compliqué !... 😩)

Je suis navrée de ne pas faire beaucoup de reprises de chansons françaises...

Poem: William Blake
"Ah! Sun-flower" is a poem by William Blake, published in his collection Songs of Experience in 1794. The poem explores themes of longing, weariness, and the human desire for something beyond earthly existence, using the sunflower as a symbol. 

A big thank you to you Torbjørn, what a great joy to sing this beautiful poem.

Poem: William Blake

Ah! sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun,
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done;

Where the youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves and aspire;
Where my sunflower wishes to go.

Ah! Sun-flower. Torbjørn Vagle. Oddrun Eikli

V1
IT'S ANOTHER ECLIPSE OF THE CITY
SOUNDS LIKE YOU'VE BEEN AWAY
S S SAILING AWAY
WHEN I FLOTE INTO YOUR EYE'S
LOOK'S LIKE YOUR FAR AWAY
THERE TO STAY
(CHORUS)
IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU'LL BE FINE
GET OFF THE GROUND, TO TAKE MY HAND
AND FALL AGAIN, TO FALL AGAIN
WE CAN HIDE AND TRY TO DEFINE
SUCH IS LIFE

WE ALL LIVE IN THE CRIME OF THE FUTURE
FEELS LIKE THE END OF TIME
REALING AWAY
NOW YOU'VE SLID INTO THIS STYLE
IT'S NOT THAT YOU HAD TO STAY
I'M HERE TO SAY

IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU'LL BE FINE
GET OFF THE GROUND, TO TAKE MY HAND
AND FALL AGAIN, TO FALL AGAIN
WE CAN HIDE AND TRY TO DEFINE
SUCH IS LIFE

SUCH IS LIFE

      This is another of my Instrumentals written in 2022 during the pandemic with a moral underbelly. I've always wanted to write a song about Swans but I put a twist in the video and made it about hunters that actually shoot and kill Swans for no apparent reason other than they must enjoy killing beautiful things and creatures. I also added other creatures besides man that can be deadly for Swans like Alligatros and such. The song was way too long and too repetitive so I remixed it last year and shortened it by about 1 minute and a half and produced a new video for it.  Even with the edits the song is still over 5 minutes long! I think I should have edited about another 1 minute from it. It's still a little too repetitive! This audio soundtrack is made to be listened to with the video! You here gunshots and other noises so please check out the video.

VIDEO - https://youtu.be/f_uyuPBMoMY

    During the new video creation I had turned the Swan into a beautiful woman and tried to suggest that killing a beautiful Swan is like killing a beautiful woman and therefore must NEVER be done! I don't show any Swans being shot, of course, it's all suggestive. After a recent comment on my video from my fellow creator and good friend Blue Bart (check his channel out on YouTube, it's really cool!👍), he suggested that the beautiful woman in the video should be a "Magical Swan Goddess" looking after and protcting these magnificent creatures from hunters and preditors! I really loved that idea and so with a wave of my wand, WHOOSH, it is so!😂 I'd like to thank Bart for his very creative and inspiring suggestion!
     I remember adding tons of audio and video effects on this one, lots of keyboards and delayed guitars and such. Another artsy composition and video, showing that I don't only compose silly love songs, although I must admit, I love writting them!  😂 This one is along the lines of "A Sublte Tear", "Together Alone", and "Oblivion". More of an artistic instrumental with no lyrics and a long cinematic video, more like a Short Subject film. I hope you all enjoy my "Swan Serenade" and don't fall asleep too soon during the listening or viewing. Take care and please cherish all forms of life.🙏😎✌🏼

May I be able to make a normal song to all tastes? This rock ballad was my best opportunity, though I had to prog it a bit... well, please tell me.

Pic taken by myself at a beach near my hometown, a cloudy morning about two weeks ago.

Letra  /  Lyrics

El sol está quieto (…)  /  The Sun is still (…)

Hace mucho tiempo que el sol está quieto.  /  Since a long time ago the Sun is still.
Lo quieto del sol da lugar al invierno.  /  Stillness of the Sun originates the winter.
Invierno que expresa su frío con viento.  /  Winter which expresses its coldness with wind.
El viento en la playa moja mi cuerpo.  /  The wind at the beach wets my body.

Mi cuerpo mojado sufre en silencio.  /  My wet body suffers silently.
Silencio que siempre me trae recuerdos.  /  Silence which always brings me memories.
Recuerdos que se agrupan en pensamientos.  /  Memories which get grouped in thoughts.
Pensamientos que pronto parecen deseos.  /  Thoughts which soon seem to be desires.

Deseos que te tienen a ti en el centro.  /  Desires which have you in the middle.
Tú en el centro pero yo más lejos.  /  You in the middle but me further away.
Lejos de todo lo que llamamos nuestro.  /  Far from everything we call ours.
Nuestro pasado es ahora lo primero.  /  Our past is now the first thing.

Primero de todo te echaré de menos.  /  First of all I will miss you.
Menos de un día ya se me hace eterno.  /  Less than one day already feels eternal to me.
Eterno fue el día en que decidí no vernos, más.  /  Eternal was the day when I decided not to meet, more.
Mas, vernos me hace salir de este infierno.  /  But, us meeting helps me get rid of this hell.

Infierno que pronto cambiaré por el cielo.  /  Hell which soon I will change for heaven.
Cielo que sólo tú puedes tenerlo.  /  Heaven which only you can own.
Tenerlo contigo es lo que más quiero.  /  To own it with you is what I want the most.
Quiero estar contigo en alma y cuerpo.  /  I want to be with you in soul and body.

Mi cuerpo mojado, en la playa hace viento.  /  My wet body, at the beach it is windy.
Viento que expresa el frío del invierno.  /  Wind which expresses the coldness of the winter.
Invierno debido a que el sol está quieto.  /  Winter due to the Sun being still.
El sol está quieto hace mucho tiempo.  /  The Sun is still since a long time ago.

Tom's piano melodies are so inspirational, not just to me (Mark) but also to Jussi, Georg and Boon. The energy of this piece carried us all off on a wonderful journey. We hope you enjoy the joyful enthusiasm that Tom initiated. Tom also gave me the key line, 'My Way Through' and I had to run with it as it made so much sense with this uplifting and hopeful music. Thanks for listening.

Wherever you’re bound you know I’ll, 
Make my way through 
Sure may take a little while
 But I’ll make my way through

Wherever I’m bound I know I’ll,
 Make my way through
 It may take a longer while 
Till I make my way through

Wherever you’re bound,
…You’re bound
I know that I’m bound, yeah!

When I get there you know I’ll
Make my way through
Sure may need a broader smile
But I’ll make my way through.
