Lyrics:
Modern Times

Verse 1

Am I playing the wrong game —- where losing’s a crime
Time’s just not the same—-and there’s no one here to blame
In these modern times——where machines reigns supreme 
breaking all the chains——-to fulfill my dreams
————And that’s a solid —because—- yeah—— I’m back————-
Metaphors and rhymes——-my weapons on this track
Modulating -from the underground ——one culture one voice
And we’re —-wired in like teeth—-like we—-ever—-had a choice

Chorus

Modern times---- a difficult maze
Where screens captivate —— the Information Age
And—-We're all connected——yet we’re—also——-alone
Lost in a sea of pixels----hearts ———-—cold as stone
Modern times————Modern times ——-Modern times

Verse 2

Smartphones--at our side—-our constant companions
That double-edged sword—-has become ——-part of the norm
buzzing Notifications——like a relentless swarm
Distracting —us ——-from moments —-another task ——to perform 
Just another monster ———taking physical form

**Chorus**

Bridge

Artificial intelligence--- a marvel and a threat
Replacing human minds--- leaving us —-deep in debt
Algorithms —-determine our fate—without regret—-
Like marionettes ———or puppets on a strings
Manipulating our thoughts——damn—we are feeding these things

Verse 3

Social media——-a stage ——for the soul to bare
Beneath the surface——lies ——and deceptions —-are clear
We curate our lives——-like a perfect facade
our true selves———pushed aside ——in total disregard

**Chorus**

Outro

In this digital age---we must find our way
Embracing the power——with a huge price to pay
There’s a balance for the screens —-in real life
With the key to our future——a new vision insight

Jo invited me to add some condiments to his Audible Zeppelin Feast much to my delight--

This is a version of the song with the added benefit of Stonerjazz' guitar, drums and bass - and what a contribution that is ! - although you might want to hold me responsible for mixing and production. Thank you, Jeff!

Original liner notes:
method: synth sounds, pedals of course, voice, post prod in Samplitude
narration: "On approaching the other it has lost its own self, since it finds itself as another being; secondly, it has thereby sublated that other, for this primitive consciousness does not regard the other as essentially real but sees its own self in the other" (G.W.F. Hegel) (for a brief overview see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%E2%80%…ndsman_dialectic, for a close encounter see here: archive.org/stream/phenomenolog…0F%20Hegel_djvu.txt )

poem (copyright jo richter):

the rulers lived above our heads
masters thrived and servants bled
bombs keep dropping on the dead
hegel's words remain unread
to hail a leader is to be misled
the earth accepts the chains you shed

ZEPPELIN FLYBY with guitar-- In collaboration With Sonic Structures and Silent Stretches

1980's inspired nostalgia. 
Co produced with my wife, Olivia Grant, as she recommended for me to change the original lead guitar part so it is more melodic and not loads of notes played in your face. I think it worked for the better.
Hope you all enjoy listening 🎧

Ash to ash
Dust to Dust
Here we go again
I pray to god but I swear
I don't think his listening
I fear the man in the mirror
worse than the Boogie Man!!
I held my mothers rosary inside my hand
Baby if you really know who I am
I don't think you would want to hold really my hand!!

London Bridge has fallen down!!
The sky has turned to red!!
The oceans fill with blood!!
I am the Monster here!!
The mask has fallen down!!
I'm the monster now!!
I hope you run!!

I found another vocal treasure on Looperman. 

Looperman Acapella: https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/14352/annett-upside-down-115bpm-electronic-acapella

Vocals: Annett

Lyrics:

The first step I've made 
had burnt me down without a trace
 Inhaling smoke, I've exhaled you

Suffocating underwater 
I hope I won't go much further 
breathless watching how my world goes upside down 
Suffocating underwater
 I hope I won't go much further upside down

I'm the last leaf, you are the wind - 
strong and cold, soon I'm falling, 
But it's better to be on the ground 
than soaring high and never be found

Upside Down - OMCB
