This track is a guitar remix of what I uploaded earlier. I would appreciate it if you could compare them.

I have uploaded it to YouTube, so I hope you can watch it.

花びら散れども…  The flowers are scattered…  ／guitar arrange version

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.

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

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.

From my new EP "Short Songs For Tall Minds" 2022 on Soundcloud.
Lyrics:
Chasing hypnotic cosmic dust
Outside your force field
Your gravitational pull
You don't really like music, do you?
If you don't care
Then I don't care
You just like how the bass
Bruises the air
I just pass my time
On stupid things
Dancing in the dark
Chasing your hypnotic cosmic dust
I just spin around
Chasing your hypnotic cosmic dust

O Come, All Ye Faithful, a beautiful Christmas Carol

O Come All Ye Faithful

This is actually a remix of the song “Where We Want To Be” which I shared about four years ago when I first joined Soundcloud.   “Winter's Road” was in fact the original title when the song was written.  So I decided to fall back to that with this remix.   See what you think.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
I cannot speak for all who stem
Long road less traveled as their way,
Nor question choices made by them
In days long past or nights long dim
By words they spoke and did not say.

(Chorus)
All roads lead to where we go
Where we go is where we have been,
So home’s just a word we know,
For where we want to be again.

From North to South, then back again,
I followed birds like all the rest
Escaping nature's snowy den
On roads I've seen and places been,
Forsaking roads that traveled West.

Repeat Chorus

For even home, it seems to me,
Is still a choice we all must face
From day to day and endlessly,
To choose if home is gonna to be
Another road or just a place.

Repeat Chorus

喧噪に埋もれたうたの節回し
掘り当てようと
街をさまよう

Someone told me that melodies are buried in the hustle and bustle of the city. Since then, I have been walking around the city trying to dig out melodies.

Finding The Melody

Unsinn by WÜST

Dragonfly

Composer Pianist 

A few years ago I decided that my life had to change and I retired to the countryside where I can devote my time to music and nature. With the piano I write simple melodies that resemble stories. My style is a bit "Naïf", I haven't attended much academy, but this doesn't stop me from being able to express the musical creativity that surrounds me. Thanks to all those who appreciate and share my compositions. Good life.....
