******************
This is a song about depression and survival. 

When I wrote it I still had another 25 years of surviving it ahead of me. But I'd made a decision years before, when I was 14, that no matter how bad it got it would always get better, sooner or later. And it always did, at least for a while. And knowing that somehow made it just a little bit easier to smile.


[This is a new mix. Drums by John Bennetts have been added and everything else has been changed, at least a little.]

Verse 1:
It’s more than a song
But less than a dream
I know what I say
Is not what I mean
Pretending my words
Aren’t meant to deceive
I’m playing with doubt
I want to believe

I know that it’s hard
To explain why I’m here
I complain though I know
There is nothing to fear
But the fear and the doubt
That wind through my mind
Are inventions of mine
That help pass the time

Chorus:
So here is my song
I wrote it for me
I need to recall
That it’s easy to be
The times that I’ve faced
My life as a trial
Have taught me to see
That it’s easy to smile

Verse 2:
I’m more than a child
But less than a man
I know where I’ve been
But not who I am
I'll say that I'm strong
I'll tell you I’m free
But none of that's true
I just want it to be

Once I entered a room
I pulled down the shade
I turned out the lights
I wanted to fade
But I noticed the wall
Right there looking at me
Pretending to be blind
I really wanted to see

Chorus:
So here is my song
I wrote it for me
I need to recall
That it’s easy to be
The times that I’ve faced
My life as a trial
Have taught me to see
That it’s easy to smile

Verse 3:
It all seemed to happen
A while ago
At a time I was lost
I just didn’t know
That doubting was simply
A game that I had
It gave me a reason
For feeling this bad

There are times there are changes
My memory moves
Preaching the patterns
I’ve worn into grooves
Repeating mistakes
I made in my youth
Learning the lines
And calling them truth
I can’t help but change
Can't help but survive
I might drown in doubt
But I'll still be alive

Chorus:
So here is my song
I wrote it for me
I need to recall
That it’s easy to be
The times that I’ve faced
My life as a trial
Have taught me to see
That it’s easy to smile

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

"Ladies & Gentlemen, Welcome to the Annual General Meeting of the Dark Ocean Society" by Darkk Messiahs is a brooding journey into the depths of dark jazz and beats. Anchored by Sticks Thompson’s commanding drums and Wilt Flowers’ pulsating bass, the track is a rhythm-driven exploration, with Sonny Rhodes’ piano lines weaving elegant motifs through the sonic tapestry. Guy Stansfield’s clarinet and Blue Six’s trumpet add haunting melodies that rise and fall like waves, evoking a mysterious, oceanic atmosphere. This piece blurs the lines between groove and noir, delivering a cinematic experience drenched in shadow.

"Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land" - Music from Book 5: (Part 1) A New Beginning

Book 5 of "Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land" opens a new chapter: The horrors of war lie behind the protagonists, but the scars run deep. This music collection accompanies the Feyerabend family in the post-war era, a time of rebuilding, hope, and slow healing.

The music of Book 5 is an eclectic mix of styles and eras, reflecting the complexity of starting anew. German Schlager hits of the 1950s and nostalgic chansons evoke memories of the past and a rediscovered joy of life. Acoustic sounds, folk, and jazz symbolize the search for security and a new normal. Brit Pop, Swing, and Rock'n'Roll represent the dawn of a new era, while Indie Pop, Chamber Pop, and even a wedding march musically underscore the hope and the gradual blossoming of new dreams. But the shadows of the past are still present, captured in melancholic ballads, a sad piano piece, psychedelic folk, spiritual hip-hop, and powerful post-rock. Even punk rock finds its place, expressing the regained freedom and zest for life.

This music is a sonic tapestry of the post-war era, a tribute to the will to survive, the importance of family, and the strength of the human spirit. It captures the ambivalence of this epoch: The burden of memory and the simultaneous spirit of optimism, the grief for what was lost and the hope for a new beginning.

Music: A musical journey through time from the 50s to the present day with elements of German Schlager, Chanson, Folk, Jazz, Brit Pop, Swing, Rock'n'Roll, Indie Pop, Chamber Pop, Post-Rock, Punk Rock, and more.

"Hinter uns das Land" - Musik zu Buch 5 (Part 1): Aufbruch in eine neue Zeit

Buch 5 von "Hinter uns das Land" schlägt ein neues Kapitel auf: Die Schrecken des Krieges liegen hinter den Protagonisten, doch die Narben sind tief. Diese Musiksammlung begleitet die Familie Feyerabend in der Nachkriegszeit, einer Zeit des Wiederaufbaus, der Hoffnung und des langsamen Heilens.

Die Musik zu Buch 5 ist eine eklektische Mischung aus Stilen und Epochen, die die Vielschichtigkeit des Neubeginns widerspiegelt. Schlager der 50er Jahre und nostalgische Chansons erinnern an die Vergangenheit und die wiedergefundene Lebensfreude. Akustische Klänge, Folk und Jazz symbolisieren die Suche nach Geborgenheit und einer neuen Normalität. Brit Pop, Swing, und Rock'n'Roll stehen für den Aufbruch in eine neue Zeit, während Indie Pop, Chamber Pop und sogar ein Hochzeitsmarsch die Hoffnung und das langsame Erblühen neuer Träume musikalisch untermalen. Aber auch die Schatten der Vergangenheit sind noch präsent, eingefangen in melancholischen Balladen, einem traurigen Klavierstück, psychedelischem Folk, spirituellem Hip-Hop, und kraftvollem Post-Rock. Sogar Punkrock findet seinen Platz, um die wiedergewonnene Freiheit und Lebensfreude auszudrücken.

Diese Musik ist ein Klanggemälde der Nachkriegszeit, eine Hommage an den Überlebenswillen, den familiären Zusammenhalt und die Kraft der menschlichen Seele. Sie fängt die Ambivalenz dieser Epoche ein: Die Last der Erinnerung und die gleichzeitige Aufbruchstimmung, die Trauer um das Verlorene und die Hoffnung auf einen Neuanfang.

Musik: Eine musikalische Zeitreise von den 50er Jahren bis in die Gegenwart mit Elementen von Schlager, Chanson, Folk, Jazz, Brit Pop, Swing, Rock'n'Roll, Indie Pop, Chamber Pop, Post-Rock, Punk Rock und mehr.

A Child Awaits (From the Original Novel Soundtrack)

[Verse 1]
They came into my life like a sweet melody,
Two little hands reaching up just for me.
With eyes full of wonder, hearts shining so bright,
Oh, they made my world turn, they gave me my light.

[Chorus]
Oh, my child, my world, my rhythm, my rhyme,
The love that we share, it’s as old as time.
Through highs and the lows, through laughter and tears,
You’re the song in my heart that I’ll hold through the years.

[Verse 2]
I see them grow strong, like the oak in the breeze,
Yet they still call my name when they fall to their knees.
No matter how far, no matter how wide,
My love will be with them, like the moon and the tide.

[Bridge]
Storms may roll in, and the night may be long,
But they’ll always remember their mama’s song.
A whisper of jazz in the hush of the night,
"I love you, my darlings, you’ll always shine bright."

[Chorus]
Oh, my child, my world, my rhythm, my rhyme,
The love that we share, it’s as old as time.
Through highs and the lows, through laughter and tears,
You’re the song in my heart that I’ll hold through the years.

[Outro]
So when you hear a soft tune, drifting on through,
Know that it’s me, always singing for you.
No matter how time tries to take you away,
You’re my melody, my love, my jazz serenade.

[Final Chorus]
Oh, my child, my world, my rhythm, my rhyme,
The love that we share, it’s as old as time.
Through highs and the lows, through laughter and tears,
You’re the song in my heart that I’ll hold through the years.

Full lyrics below this line!

It's just another boring day where usual is the same was feeling things in different ways was feeling things can't start again.
As i was fighting black from blue as skies turn grey and rain drops fall onto my face and brightens up my day.
now it's just another day now it all feels the same and now it's just another day and it feels the same but i see your face,
Now it's just another day where it all fades away and it's just another day where I am in my darkest ways again.

You too me you are my number one you are the sun.
you to me your my number one you are the summer sun

I was fighting black for blue as skies turn grey.
It's just another usual day you send me on my way.
It's just another usual day you send me on my way it brightens up my day i can't help but feel this way,
As I was fighting black for blue I was thinking of you grey skies fade away smiles upon my dace,
Now it's just another day where it all feels the same now it's just another day where it fades away now it's just another day where you brighten up my day always,
Now it's just another day where you brighten up day always,

You too me your my number one you are the warm sun,
You to me your my number one you are the shinning sun.
now it's just another day where you brighten up my day just another day your smile brightens up my day living the dream.. live the dream
you to me your my number one you are the summer sun,
Just another way where you brighten up my day through the darkest ways where you brighten up my day you are my number one summer sun number one.

Ta 25ième heure, l'heure à laquelle tu décides de vivre ta passion.Lorsque l'on fait une activité qu'on aime le temps est toujours trop court et jamais assez long.

Your 25th hour, the time at which you decide to live your passion. When doing an activity that we like, the time is always too short and never long enough.

Ta 25e heure

Tu l'imagines
Mais tu plies l'échine… toujours!

Cet espoir de bonheur
Te reviens à chaque heure… à chaque heure.

(Mais tu te dis…)
Souvent trop longues
Jamais trop courtes
Peu importe elles s'écoulent

Tu rêves de cet instant
Pour traverser ces moments… plus librement.
Toutes ces journées à labourer
Pour construire ce paradis… tant souhaité.

(Mais tu te dis…)
Souvent trop longues
Jamais trop courtes
Peu importe elles s'écoulent s’écoulent s’écouleeeeent

Jamais trop longues
Souvent trop courtes
L'important c'est que tu t'écoutes
Voilà l'instant
Ici le moment
C’est l’heure
De ta 25e heure

Solo

Celle qui t'appartient
La réalisation de ton destin
L'instant de bonheur
Ta passion à toutes heures… à toutes heures

(Mais tu te dis…)
Jamais trop longues
Souvent trop courtes
L’important c’est que tu y touches
Le temps présent
Le temps constant
Voilà l'instant
Ici le moment
C’est l’heure
De ta 25e heure

B2K has released numerous "Jam-a-Lopes," the jams and loops remaining in the Looper after playing live.

Rather than a "Jam-a-Lope," Track 5 has no jams, just a brief instrumental backing loop for this Dylan tune, in a traditional JGB "Jerry Garcia Band" arrangement.

Gettin' hotter.
