This song is based on a guitar lick that I'm playing for many years. I never made a song with it, until now. 

All instruments and vocals played by me, except for the tenor sax, it's played by my brother Erik
I hope you like it!
----

Well you know, that I know, that you know, what you want
and I know, that you know, that I want it too

Do we wait, for our fate to be determined for us
or can we steer ourselves in the direction that we want to go?

what is it we’re waiting for?
What is it that we are waiting for?

Our deepest longings, 
Can slowly turn into regret

Well  You know, that I know, that you know, what you want
and I know, that you know, that I want it too

What is it we’re waiting for?
What is it that we are waiting for?

Our deepest longings, 
Can slowly turn into regret
Let's not regret.

Regret

GATES OF HEAVEN (Ft. Molly Barnett)

COLD & HOT


© Copyright Lyrics & Music 2008 - Tous droits réservés par Fading Call

	You bring me down		under the rain

	Out in the cold 		under the rain

	So cold outside 		under the rain

	Grey of the sky		grey of the streets


	So cold outside		so hot inside

	Thanks my lady		thanks my baby

	Thanks for your smile 		deep down inside

	It’s cold outside		but hot inside

	
	You bring me down		under the rain

	You bring me up 		deep down inside

	Down down do da ............		da da do da

	Hot inside


	Grey of the sky		Red of your lips

	It’s hot inside

	Thanks my lady		thanks my baby

	Thanks for your smile 		deep down inside

Cold & Hot

Written by James Geer

There’s no time for hate
No time for war
No time for for tyranny 
The people want more

No time for lies
Corruption or graft
Misinformation 
Sketchy Statecraft 

Believe in the dream
Fight for the dream
Work for the dream 
Fight for the dream

We’re on the cusp
Of a golden age
Purge the bad actors
And turn the page

The dream

Written by James Geer

I’ve been working on the Hudson line
Through the snow drifts and the northern pine
Where the moonlight makes the strap rails shine
Wind is freezing but I’m feeling fine

Pretty soon we’ll be in Albany
40 minutes from Schenectady 
With the passengers who paid the fee
As the fire man I ride for free

Hudson line

If I close my eyes forever ( Ozzy Lita Ford)

method: experimenting with parallel loops, magix tts was used to read the text of the poem
narration: the poem gestated with covid still around
image: statue seen in dresden zoo many years ago, modified, copyright jo richter - the internet knows that the statue I photographed was created by Otto Pilz: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Pilz ( I did not see an English version of that article...another perspective on that statue can be seen as the lowest picture on that page, apparently photographed in a different season)


poem ( previously published in the collection  AUSLEGPAPIER under the title virus ) / copyright jo richter:

to become integrated
into the sprawling self – 
nutrient tissue for the  
tentacles that reach

into the real – each
pinpoint manifestation
allowing to devine
huge outside dimensions

sifting in, taking root -
rearranging molecules
the way any hyperspace chemistry
would – sleeper cells
dreaming back to human-
kind in kind

Weirdly, after reaching 1k plays ( I have the mail), the stats started counting backwards. soundcloud has been told.- now, some thirty plays later, it seems to be counting forwards again ..... what an erratic display this is!

WELL provided an open collab - I toyed around with the sounds.
(This is mp3 since soundcloud still struggles with wav uploads)
All sounds (apart from the voices) by Well, mangled by audacity and me.

Written by James Geer

Brenda bin sufferin sufferin sufferin
Trying to scratch that itch
Older daughter moved away
The younger called her bitch

I was lounging at the pool
When she came out to tease
Captured my imagination 
With her double Ds 

Brenda gots a jealous heart
You see it in her face
Made her gal pals disappear 
Gone without a trace

You could find her in a bar
More likely in a dive
They call her leopard lady
Cause she ate young men alive

I remember vividly
On one drunken day 
Cussed me out in creole 
As I tried to get away

Somehow I resisted her
Midnight seductive calls
I’m not a resolute man
But I finally got the balls
To get away

Brenda

Song I wrote about overcoming pain and trials and choosing to find joy and meaning even in the hardest times.

"Weeping may endure for a night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning"-Psalm 30:5

Music/Lyrics/Vocals/Instrumentals by Layna Claunch
                     
Rain shedding torrents all around
As the waves come crushing down
While in the ocean’s roar                                  
Hear all melodies surround and the   
Symphonies astound 
From sorrow you can soar 

Time for Joy            
Time for Sorrow
Time for Joy                         
Beauty through the pain
Dancing in the rain

Light as it sparkles on the sea
In your actions you are free
So choose who you will be
Time quickly fleeting on the breeze
Find your purpose choose to see
How joy will come to be
       
Time for Joy           
Time for Sorrow
Time for Joy
Purpose in the pain
Dancing in the rain
 
You know it’s gonna hurt, but it’s time to wake up now
This time you know for certain now is all that we’re allowed
Don’t let your moment pass away in time
Find the mountains only you can climb

Know, that each moment is a gift
Learn to value what is real
No matter how you feel
You can decide the life you live
Meaning in the gifts you give
Loving what is true brings joy to be

Time for Joy            
Time for Sorrow
Time for Joy
Beauty through the pain
Dancing in the rain
Dancing in the rain

Time for Joy

Hoping you enjoy this chilled groove, thank you for all of your kind shares plays and reposts too!!

Rendezvous

Only very slightly evil hippy of the old tradition.
1 guy, strat, Yamaha acoustic. iPad. substances.
I’m no Conway Twitty. 😕
Listening pleasure proportionate to cannabis intake.
