Who would unfollow you for coming out with this???! Double the LOL! Screamo skramz fans? (: Who cares at that point! ;) Who needs that? Göran! :D Happy Valentine's Day to You & yours! This is so relaxing & is an ultra-refined pleasant. I'm so glad you didn't hesitate to post it! It has a daydreamer's appeal! Yes, I totally agree with you about placing this in a movie as an on the telephone on hold piece of music or at a Dentist office. Have you considered doing an ecard video?  I suppose by your backstory, it lets one know that even a superb artist such as yourself has moments of reluctancy...But that is what I suppose goes with newly ventured territory, & I'm glad you exposed this piece. It's definitely most incredible! Encore! Best wishes for lovely days ahead! 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💖🌹🌹🌹🌹❣🖖🏻

Romantic tone and lovely feeling in the melody :)

Why would anyone hate this? It's not your main genre, but it is lovely, with a good production, seriously, this is indistinguishable from 80's (I think) top radio! You are very versatile!

Oh, what a nice piece!  Just what I need to hear today!

There is nothing wrong with you because you are different. Everyone is different.

We do not have to be homogeneous; we do not have to be the same. There is distance and difference between even the closest of human beings. We do not have to walk the same path to share the same vision: that all view points are valuable; except for hate, which is not a viewpoint at all but a dark glass some people see through… losing all clarity and beauty.

We do not need to stand above someone. We can stand side by side and not be in each other’s shade…so that we all receive the same amount of sunlight. 

Two great things we can do in life: Have the courage to be yourself, your unique self and embrace what is different about you; and the second thing is to embrace what is different about everyone else …what is their unique contribution to the world?  (And maybe doing the second will only come from doing the first. Maybe you can’t accept everyone else’s differences unless you accept your own). 

Every power struggle, abuse, and essentially all inequity in the world is related. We need to solve the inequities in our own lives in order to impact the world’s inequities and essentially set a good example so that others will follow, not you; but your behaviour, by making changes on their own.

Differences are very important. We need them to understand things…without differences we cannot compare, understand, and get perspective. We wouldn’t even have a concept of time without differences! Differences create understanding if we embrace them and only difference can create change and growth…the concepts of change and growth are also not possible without differences! 

The ironic thing is that humans sometimes think that rejecting differences and striving to be the same will create unity. But the opposite is true: only through accepting all our differences and celebrating them can we truly unite and move forward.

Lyrics

Nid wy’n gofyn bywyd moethus,
Aur y byd na’i berlau mân:
Gofyn wyf am galon hapus,
Calon onest, calon lân.

Chorus:
Calon lân yn llawn daioni,
Tecach yw na’r lili dlos:
Dim ond calon lân all ganu
Canu’r dydd a chanu’r nos.

Pe dymunwn olud bydol,
Chwim adenydd iddo sydd,
Golud calon lân, rinweddol,
Yn dwyn bythol elw fydd.

Chorus

Hwyr a bore fy nymuniad
Esgyn ar adenydd cân,
Ar i Dduw, er mwyn fy Ngheidwad,
Roddi i mi galon lân.

Chorus

English

I  do not ask for a luxurious life,
The world’s gold or its fine pearls,
I ask for a happy heart,
A truthful heart, a pure heart.

Chorus:
A Pure Heart, that’s full of goodness,
Fairer than the delicate Lily:
Only a pure heart can sing,
Sing the day and sing the night.

Chorus

If I desired worldly riches,
It would swiftly go to seed:
The riches of a virtuous, pure heart,
Will reap eternal profit.

Chorus

Late and morning my wish,
Rising to heaven on the wing of song,
So to my God for the sake of my saviour,
Give to me a pure heart.

Calon Lân (@ rehearsals with Helen Roberts And Sean Evans)

Sentimental "Easy Listening" piece.  I got the idea for the piece when I had nothing better to do,  so I wrote it in a matter of minutes, and produced it in half a day or so.  Hardly the kind of stuff I usually write, but why not?  I like all sorts of music, even this kind of stuff, believe it or not, and as a composer, I do take some pride in being somewhat versatile, and able to write in different genres.  I was reluctant to post it, since I was worried that all my friends would unfollow me as a result(LOL!) I hope that won't happen, and that I'll be forgiven for this indiscretion. So much for all excuses, and disclaimers.  The sequenced piano brings new meaning to the term "hammerklavier", but rest assured, it would have been far worse had I tried to play it!  The piece is entirely diatonic, and the motif is extremely simple, but
 I think it would work as "Muzak", in a movie, when you are on hold on the phone, or waiting in the dentists office or such.
