Name: I'm Still Standing- acapella demo by gitika partington
Duration: 3 min 54 s
Description: i had a dream last week in the middle of all this madness that I was truly joyful and i was singing this song...so I arranged it for fun,..the end is cracking...it s a lot ore funky than some versions i have heard.

I am celebrating my 80th week writing a song a week with https://www.iheartsongwritingclub.com a wonderous community of songwriters. Each 10 week term you are in a group of 10 songwriters on line ( you can go in disguise if you like)and all the tasks and feedback are done in your own time online. Each week you have a brief and spend minimum of one hour creating the bones of a song which you post and it is listened to by the other 9 writers and gentle feedback given from other songwriters which is very precious. It has been my creative lifeline over the last year and a half. The cost is a  few Australian dollars a week and the website is so well put together. The Brief this week was TAPESTRY . My dear departed beautiful mum made tapestries and this is a photo of three she made for me -the one with the ducks got left at Vitoria Railway station at Christmas when she came to visit anD I had to go on a rescue mission to find it ..Imagine all those hours of work lost! The song is about the birthday tapestry with my name on and that special thread.

NEVER WILL BE BROKEN ( week 80 I heart songwriting club)

Share on Twitter I had a dear friend Pete who sadly died a couple years ago..I have not seen him for decades but something stuck he said which was if the 'up was worth the down' whether it be an experience  a relationship or imibing something  you would do it. SO that was the starting point.. Thannks to lovely Lukas Drinkwater again.
LYRICS 
No hangover the morning after. No regrets,   after  honeymoon laughter. I want to invent a pill that only gives you spark. I want to invent a day that never fades into dark. no raven night after the sunniest time   no nasty side effects after saying you're mine I want  to invent a pill that only gives you a  spark I want to invent a day that never fades into  dark. Gonna  spend more time with you, Peter said that  the up’s worth the down. I'd wake up to days brand, new Peter said that  the up’s worth the down  that   the love it will  keep coming a round  No lyrics for the second verse I got no time No yin and yang no minus and plus sign

Peter Says

Little demo wrote and recorded this morning  ..only 2 mins of loveliness...19th August 2023. thought I would share. a good start methinks .

Sing a song of grace
hold it  sweetly to our heart
we want more of love  we say we do
through the fire through the blue

got  no monochrome
keeping all the drama down
indigo through flame to  blue
now we got wings everythings so new  
 WE CAN FLY FLY WE CAN FLY !

soaring  peaks of snow
we want everyone to know
we want it all we shout aloud
flying high above  the clouds

climb the mountain high
then  we soar in bluest sky
father sun grandmother moon
we find our heart our breathing room so we can fly

FLY LKE AN EAGLE

FLY LIKE AN EAGLE

week 153 ..I write and record a song every week. 
LYRICS
how come I'm  the one putting my foot in it again
wearing my heart on my sleeve
telling the world how I feel
hoping it will  heal us  

How come I have constant knot in my refrain
expecting you to work it all out
thinking my feelings they shout
the bleeding obvious 
no one ever x2 , gave us the tools
only taught  us how to stick to, or break all the rules
 no one ever x2  showed us the way
how to ring our personal fire brigade
 no one ever told us how to stand up and fight
for the things we loved for things that were right 
  'how do you feel?'  no-one asked when we were young
oh oh oh oh oh    
when will we,  when will we ever learn
to stop going around
in circles, red hot circles  in circles again
three hundred and sixty degrees of pain
still going around
in circles,  red hot circles in  circles  again
Sing it for  me two more times
sing it  for me one more time

This 

week 153. Circles

The Lake Isle of Innisfree
BY WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.

And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow,
And evening full of the linnet’s wings.

I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
