Quiero Ser Libre (I Want to Be Free)

Quiero ser libre
para sentir, amar, vivir
quiero ser libre
para reir y compartir

Quiero volver
quiero volver
a tocar el cielo con las manos

Dejame estar
dejame estar contigo
vamos a ser amigos

Quiero sentir
quiero vivir
quiero ser libre

Todas esas veces
que me siento atrapado
si me hubiera dado cuenta
que siempre fui libre
siempre fui libre

Si me hubiera dado cuenta
de que nada me detiene
nada me detiene, nada
nada me detiene
nada me detiene, nada

Quiero ser libre
para sentir, amar, vivir
quiero ser libre
para reir y compartir

Quiero volver
quiero volver
a tocar el cielo con las manos 

Quiero salir
quiero seguir
quiero ser libre

Quiero sentir
quiero vivir
quiero ser libre

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

I want to be free
to feel, love, live
I want to be free
to laugh and share

I want to go back
I wanna go back
to touch the sky with my hands

Let me be
let me be with you
we're going to be friends

I want to feel
I want to live
I want to be free

All those times
when I feel trapped
if I would have realized
that I've always been free
I've always been free

If I'd had realized
that nothing stops me
nothing stops me, nothing
nothing stops me
nothing stops me, nothing

I want to be free
to feel, love, live
I wanna be free
to laugh and share

I want to go back
I wanna go back
to touch the sky with my hands

I want to get out
I want to go on
I wanna be free

I want to feel
I want to live
I wanna be free

Quiero Ser Libre

Progressive funk rock by the Dragonsail Puppets

Shapeshifting cobra with an image burned behind my eyes
This image I give off to you is another disguise

I'm travelling far away because this layer's growing thin
Your world's an onion I am peeling away skin by skin
Yes skin by skin by skin by skin by skin by skin by skin

How many skins till I'm in?

Shapeshifting cobra, still that image burned behind my eyes
I die and I'm reborn into the same familiar light
I'm torn but everything in form is something recognized
The same old visions spun and now I think I'm finally done

I'm going back to the labyrinth to stay
I'm going back to the labyrinth to stay
I'm going back to the labyrinth to stay
Or wear a layer away

A Layer Away

Good Rut		c. 2021 by M. A. Manetz

V1
Alarm goes off at six each and every workin' day,
Shower, shave, and breakfast, get the kids off on their way.
Same ol' traffic, same ol' job, same reload/replay.
Sometimes it feels like we're in a rut, but you know what? 

Chorus
It's a good rut,
'Cause I got you by my side,
We're in a good rut,
Together we have made this life...
(Into) Somethin' solid we can hold onto.
I'm happy in this good rut with you.


V2
When we met you swore you'd change my wild and crazy ways.
Now it's dinner, TV, bed by 10, darlin' that's ok.
As long as we're together at the end of the day.
We may be in what some folks call a rut...but...

Chorus

Bridge
Without your love I don't know where I'd be...
Thank my lucky stars you stuck with me...in a good rut.

Our Utmost Thanks to you Dave for lending us your terrific Rock vocals to blend with ours on this epic song!

Lyrics:

Bodhran’s Dream 

A silver veil hangs sweet and low
The sea pulls her skirt in the wind
Gazing over Tempters cliff, 
The heart calls a future unmet
Two hands upon a timeless face
Who never seem able to meet
But Time has sold what should have been
And I can’t let go of this dream

Chorus:
So take my hand Love!
And we’ll dance ‘till the Sun kiss the moon in the sky
By the beat of the Bodhran and the whistle’s delight
We’ll ignite heaven’s light..
And we’ll live every lifetime!
In the space of a moment in each others’ arms,
And we’ll sing ‘till our voices surround every star
And remake what has past,
If tonight’s but a dream
Darling.. Live it with me.

Holding on to memories
That glisten like pearls on a string
And where this ends, no one can know,
But hope is where all this begins…

Chorus:
So take my hand Love!
And we’ll dance ‘till the Sun kiss the moon in the sky
By the beat of the Bodhran and the whistle’s delight
We’ll ignite heaven’s light..
And we’ll live every lifetime!
In the space of a moment in each others arms,
And we’ll sing ‘till our voices surround every star
And remake what has past,
If tonight’s but a dream
Darling.. Live it with me…. Live it with me…

Happy New Year from The Welcome Parade!!

We hope 2022 will be the start of something quite exceptional for everyone.  I think we are all due a bit of a respite from the current state of affairs! 

Lyrics:
I'm moving slow and steady
wind your watch here comes the ready
looking so unsteady
I think you had enough already

Time is slowly finding time to leave you without time
now you've seen the time you've taken was you're own decline

1234

I'm moving slow and steady
wind your watch here comes the ready
looking so unsteady
I think you had enough already

4321


The Welcome Parade is proud to release our first two tracks of 2022

The Ready - This piece starts with our usual Skype call and some drinks, after a few rounds and a lack of focus that requires another call. The next call we dedicate to getting the music business accomplished before we drift off topic. First on the list to complete is "The Ready" a heavy piece that has a unique frenzy to it.  

Edges with a bit of fury and finesse,  Jay's tense vocal work pushes this beautifully in the punk direction.  Perhaps something you might encounter in a Tarantino movie...preferably one with Selma Hayek in it! Thom with his top shelf fret board dancing, creates a complex texture that keeps you on the edge of your seat.  Finally Jeff keeping the piece grounded with some pounding bass work! 

On a final note...this track gets me off the hook for a request made to me by Jay's bride!  To have Jay perform something as an Englishman!  Huzzah and mission accomplished! 

Not Today - See "Not Today"

I hope one day the world looks at us and says...we got to get these guys together!  If not I am just very happy to have a couple of friends with a musical connection that exists as something so natural, it is difficult to keep the components separate, to realize where one ends and another begins. 

You guys rock and I am so glad to have you as friends and musical companions...rock on mi amigos!

WhichWayToHeaven
If you're reading this thanks for listening to my song (you rock!), here is what it's about :)
The first verse references the counting of Abraham as the founding Patriarch of the three major monotheist religions.
The chorus is a comment on religious persecution and intolerance.
The second verse references Hinduism, bliss and paradise.
A short reflection on the inevitable 
Solo and musical bridge interlude
Third verse references the similarities of religions. 
And the last verse list different names for heaven and faith based greetings 

Lyrics
From the olden days of Abraham
To the stars of the silver screen
The faithful come to share their tale
Of the way to Eternity

And the whip does lash
Upon the backs 
Of those that disagree
And dare to ask
Which way to heaven 		

Older still, a another land  
A different way is found
To reach the bliss of paradise
where deities abound
 
And oh
I long
To see
What 
Will be

The way to heaven
Which way to heaven

Solo
Instrumental bridge

Rituals and temples
Worship and prayer
The commonality laid bare 
For anyone that cares 

And the whip does lash
Upon the backs 
Of those that disagree
And dare to ask
Which way to heaven 

And oh
I long
To see
What
Will be

Kingdom come
Araboth
Swarga
Jannah 
Shalom
Assalamu alaikum
namaste
peace 
be 
with you

Cobwebs

15-year-old Andriy recounts to CNN's John Berman the moment his family was forced from their home at gunpoint in Chernihiv, Ukraine, and the attack that claimed his mother's life. 

V1
right
It ain't right
It ain't right
It ain't right

When fifteen year old ripped from his life
When his towns on fire and his mother just died
It ain't right
It ain't right

you see
It's strange
That just a week before
Andriy was playing guitar with family
dark night
Dark night
He just want play his guitar now
And get through this dark night

Ch
And he just wanna go home
And he just wanna go home
And rebuild a city

{post ch}

V3
He's the same age as my son
to see what he has been through.
it is just,
heart breaking
He said
I was supposed to be playing with my band at a concert…
instead I am here.
heart breaking
heart breaking
And I wanna go home
And I wanna go home

{instr}

Ch
And he just wanna go home
And he just wanna go home
And rebuild a city

Bridge
And want you to know that my mother was a beautiful woman
And want you to know that my mother was a beautiful friend

Ch
And I wanna go home
And I wanna go home
Heart breaking

Outro
And I wanna go home
And I wanna go home
Heart breaking
And I wanna go home
And I wanna go home

The situation in Ukraine is heartbreaking and incomprehensible……it ain't right.

I saw one specific example (of many) in a news article that really got to me about the effects of this senseless war on ordinary people.  People just trying to live their ordinary human lives in peace, coming from towns probably similar to the one you or I may have grown up in.  Instead, they are ripped from this existence because a psychopath decides he needs to acquire a new piece of dirt and a bigger crown.  He will level cities and mow down innocent people to get it.  

I recently watched a news feature covering a shell shocked 15 year old boy who had lost his mother in an awful attack.  He was still obviously stunned and coping.  Towards the end of the interview it became clear that one of his coping mechanisms was just wanting to play his guitar for awhile to get through the dark nights ahead….to hold on to a strand of something normal.  This hit me quite hard as it is probably a characteristic I too would have fallen back on as coping mechanism (a keyboard in my case)

 The other powerful thing that came through was his un-questioned determination to still go back and rebuild the city one day. This seemed to be just a given.  This was going to happen. This steadfast resolve and heroism in the Ukrainian people in general is moving and inspiring and probably has a lot to do with what they went through and achieved in the 2013/2014 timeframe when they ousted a Putin placed dictator the first time.  The Netflix documentary called Winter on Fire captures this struggle for independence very well.  They will not give up this hard won independence easily.

This all influenced my latest song creation.  

Thank You for your courage Andriy and I wish you strength, resilience and resolve to keep moving forward.  This song is dedicated to you and your family.

Take Me As I Am

I DON'T FEEL RIGHT!

Well I woke up this morning and I was sick on the dog
Sick on the cat and sick in the bog
I don’t feel right! 
Yeah, Lordy Lord!
I don’t feel right! 
Oooh my soul!
I took a little something to avoid the derision
It ain't had much effect 'cept on my vision
WTF was that?!?
Please don’t leave me! (alone)
Yeah I don’t feel right!

I woke up this morning and I was sick on the dog
Sick on the cat and sick in the bog 
I took a little something from the baby sitter
It aint done nothin, but it sure taste bitter
Please don’t leave me! (alone)
I don’t feel right!
Please don’t leave me!  (alone)
I don’t feel right!

(More than inspired by my sojourn with The Mosquitos: 

“This isn’t  having much effect”
(1... 2... 3...)
“DON’T LEAVE ME!!!”

We were in bits... 🤣🤣🤣 )

I DON'T FEEL RIGHT

Lyrics

Verse 1
Hold on, it's a long way down
Haven't been there for so long
It's a simple life when you're living on your own
so don't pick up the telephone (cell phone)
It's you and me again
so hold on.....

Chorus
Strangers, in this life
We're strangers, we're just finding our way
We're strangers, it's just you and me
We're strangers and I can't stay

Verse 2
So low, at the Sundowner Cafe
You're a bright light in the darkest place
Your stage name is all I need
So don't pick up the telephone
It's you and me again
so hold on.....

Chorus
Strangers, in this life
We're strangers, we're just finding our way
We're strangers, it's just you and me
We're strangers and I can't stay


Outro

We were hangin out at the sundowner when everything would change
for you and me

We were hangin out at the sundowner when everything would change
for you and me

We were hangin out at the sundowner when everything would change
for you and me

We were lost in the night, you and me

We were strangers....

The sundowner cafe

NastiGi's well-crafted songs are bursting with mainstream appeal.  With solid melodies and extremely catchy choruses, they have ‘ear worm’ potential. Blending 90s Americana with their British rock roots, NastiGi’s trademark sound of melodic, powerful, alternative rock has already made them one of the hottest new acts on the London music scene. NastiGi's recent releases (So I Run, Love Your Enemy) have featured on some of Spotify's premier editorial playlists (All New Rock, New Noise, Rock Out, 100% Rock) and hitting over 1.3 Million streams and 600,000 listeners. NastiGi has been at the #1 position for ReverbNation London and Regional Rock Chart, and #1 for the entire United Kingdom  rock chart. 
Returning with a mix of raw energy, noisy guitar riffs, distorted bass and tight grooves, after playing two rock festivals, as well as securing radio plays and the video ‘Take Me As I Am’ is featured on IndieCast TV's, ‘Pottersfield TV’ in USA, UK, Netherlands and South America. Also featured on Lifoti Magazine,‘Metal In Italy’  & ‘Artistic Echoes’ web magazines amongst others , NastiGi returned with “Dude” released 24th October.  Taking influences from Muse, Royal Blood and Skunk Anansie, NastiGi wrote the single for anyone living their life behind a shadow.
Gianluca, the band leader and songwriter, said “Back in 2015, I had been living with the absolute belief that I could never write a whole song by myself.  In 2017, things started taking a different turn for me and I found myself as the one who was responsible for creating new material in my band back then, so I had to find a way.  And, by 2018, I couldn’t believe I actually amassed enough material to release the whole album.  Well, my self-confidence grew stronger each day, so I kept going! Today, it feels natural and so cool!”
NastiGi had three record-deal offers (iCottage Records, Cave music, and PA74music) during last year but still looking for THE right one to come.
Gianluca said “I believe that is only a matter of time until we get picked up by a major music industry label and see our music on the Billboard Hot 100”.
