This song began all the way back when Manuel was 16 and found love that summer with a girl named Carmen. He remembered her, though, and wrote this song about her all these years later. The title of the song means "Your name has the song," and the lyrics spell out the girl's charms using the letters of her name. Check out the lyrics and the translation below. 
  Using that inspiration, Manuel came up with the song structure and the vocal melodies to a rudimentary drum track with his electric guitar. He then asked Josh if the group would be interested in taking it on. Josh, never being one to refuse a challenging piece of music, and always on the lookout for interesting musicians with whom to collaborate, accepted his kind offer and created a project for the rest of the Eclectic Collecitve to join. He started the whole thing off by adding his bass, to which Ken added his innovative drums, to which Josh redid his bass, as is the typical process in the EC.
  Next up was JJ, who you'd think he'd grown up with Spanish music the way he added the horns, accordion, and piano. Then Stephen stepped in and added his psychedelic and intricate acoustic guitar to the stew. 
  It was all done, except for the mix at this point. Manuel did the honors, and did it very expertly. Stephen mastered it to give it more volume and dynamism, too, as he always does. 
  This was the first, but we hope not the last, time the EC has collaborated with Manuel, although we're all fans of the incredible music on his page. He was a true delight to work with, giving honest, encouraging feedback and helping us shape his song to meet his vision. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by E Ruizzo:

TU NOMBRE TIENE LA CANCIÓN  /  YOUR NAME HAS THE SONG

Qué es una lágrima en el desierto?  /  What is a tear in the desert?
Cae sin ruido, se evapora y se olvida.  /  It falls without noise, evaporates and is forgotten.
No tiene tiempo de brillar, su vida  /  It has no time to shine, its life
es corta y su camino tan incierto…  /  is short and its path so uncertain...

Ce del calor del desierto y su sol,  /  ‘C’ for the heat of the desert and its sun,
a del adiós por el que lloré tanto;  /  ‘a’ for the farewell for which I cried so much;
erre del río que forma mi llanto;  /  ‘r’ for the river formed by my crying;
eme de miedo, de magia y de amor.  /  ‘m’ for fear, for magic and for love.

E de esperanza, de espacio rosado,  /  ‘E’ for hope, for pink space,
de espina clavada, de suelta emoción;  /  for stuck thorn, for loose emotion;
ene de noche de un tiempo pasado.  /  ‘n’ for night of a past time.

Carmen, tu nombre tiene la canción  /  Carmen, your name has the song
de todo aquello que has significado:  /  of all that you have meant:
Carmen de luz, de sonrisa y de adiós.  /  Carmen of light, of smile and of goodbye.

Tu Nombre Tiene La Canción (with The Eclectic Collective)

i clean up the world
you fall in beside me
i’ll cover the Wuhan lab
you shore up the army

i follow the news
the news is disaster
i’ve given up on my booze
to wash the world faster

every morning
every hour

stop at the top of mountains
soul care repair

it happens this way
to each generation
the entropy cabaret
and reason’s cessation

every morning
wake up to the truth
every hour
plenty more to do

stop at the top of mountains
rest there fresh air 

every morning
wake up to the truth
every hour plenty more to do

stop at the top of mountains 
pure prayer up there

There's a Wrinkle  in the Moment 
the Muse is missing in the War Zone
Beauty has a different definition
in the loaming of the elder days

My Alcoholic friend came busting through the treeline
stone cold sober, when the quarter moon was rising
and the surf was crashing
crying like a child

Said he saw the future in a puddle in his driveway
after eating mushrooms from Hawaii-

That's when i started laughing
That's when i started crying
trying and deciding to give it all away-
beginning with Cessation
embracing the rejected
replacing the infected with absolutely nothing but Compassion-

Forgiveness out of order
being highly overrated
since the bad behaviors
are in the very natures of the perpetrators

Recalibration,  however is an option
in the aftermath's Duration
and the possiblity of Passion 
still lingers in the fingers on the fretboards
and the singers sing songs they've written
while smitten with emotion of the joyful
and broken hearted lovers and covers
and collections of recollections of Moments--

Wrinkle in the Moment ( from the Half-Life collection on Bandcamp)

"John Denver was born Henry John Deutschendorf Junior at Roswell, New Mexico, the son of an air force pilot. As such, he led a peripatetic life from an early age, but would say later that for him, moving to Colorado was like coming home. He and his first wife Annie - the love of his life - bought some land at Starwood in Aspen
The Denver's moved to Starwood at Christmas 1970, at which time the area had been developed only minimally. They built a five bedroom eco-friendly house and a guest house on the 7.6 acre plot. This mushy, sentimental composition is John Denver's coming home song.
After his tragic death in a plane crash in October 1997, fans wanted to convert the Starwood property into a museum, but it was put on the market and sold for $3.68 million. "                   Songfacts

I had posted a year ago the row version of this track recorded back in 2015 (https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/bosque-redondo)
I thought that, after all these years, it was time to remake it, without altering the melody or the atmosphere.
Regarding the context evoked, see for example here: https://americanindian.si.edu/nk360/navajo/long-walk/long-walk.cshtml

Bosque Redondo (final version)*

it frequently occurs that I have to face up to a hundred of attempts when working on virtual vocals for my stuff – though I created a particular persona (defined in many details such as voice character and stuff) in order to work with a ‘familiar’ singer. anyway, this time it actually took almost 250 working versions and the entire amount of my suno pro credits to direct the machine towards a vocal performance matching with my musically concept, the backing tracks and even more: my massive thoughts and emotions in terms of topic. I was looking for a genre or a way to capture a story going back a thousand of years – and going on and on and on. everyday. around the planet. becoming ever worse, especially nowadays…

Leben über Leben
Alle gerade eben
Zwischen zwei Sekunden
Ausgelöscht verschwunden
 
Grauenhafter Schrecken
Eingestürzte Decken
Ängste, Schreie, Schmerzen
Lauter tote Herzen
 
Wimmern und Entsetzen
Kinderkörperfetzen
Reste von Figuren
Wie zertretene Uhren
 
Graue Trümmerorte
Blut und Ohnmachtsworte
Schneidend tiefer Kummer
Eine Opfernummer
  
Es wird weiter, weitergehen
Weiter über Leichen 
Ist noch nicht genug geschehen
Wird uns niemals reichen
Alles wird so weitergehen
weiter, weiter, weiter
  
Wünsche, Pläne, Ziele
Sorgenfreie Spiele
Freude, Lachen, Scherze
Alles nur noch Schwärze
 
Atmen, Leben spüren
Sehen und berühren
Träumen, küssen, lieben
Nichts davon geblieben
 
Unendliches Sterben
Grauen und Verderben
Bomben, Morden, Brennen
Es Konflikte nennen
 
Schlachten wie von Sinnen
Siegen, nie gewinnen
Ewig gleiche Sache
Männer, Macht und Rache
  
Es wird weiter, weitergehen
Weiter über Leichen 
Ist noch nicht genug geschehen
Wird uns niemals reichen
Alles wird so weitergehen
weiter, weiter, weiter
 
Es wird immer wieder gehen
Für ein Meer aus Tränen
Alle haben hingesehen
Niemand muss sich schämen
So wird alles weiter weitergehen
weiter, weiter, weiter

trying to translate:  

Untold lives
All just
Between two seconds
Destroyed, erased

Terrible fright
Collapsed ceilings
Fears, screams, pain
Shredded hearts

Whimpering and horror
Children's body scraps
Remains of limbs
Like trampled watches

Gray places of rubble
Blood and fainting words
Cutting deep sorrow
A victim number

It will go on and on
Over dead bodies 
Not enough has happened yet
Will never be enough for us
Everything will continue like this
On and on and on

Wishes, plans, goals
Worry-free games
Joy, laughter, jokes
Everything is just blackness

Breathe, feel life
See and touch
Dream, kiss, love
Nothing remained of it

Infinite dying
Terror and ruin
Bombs, murder, burning
Named conflict

Slaughtering insanity
Triumphing, never winning
Always the same thing
Men, power and revenge

It will go on and on
Over dead bodies 
Not enough has happened yet
Will never be enough for us
Everything will continue like this
On and on and on

It will happen again and again
For a sea of tears
All eyes are on it
Nobody has to be ashamed
This is how everything will continue
On and on and on

no, I’m not an AI enthusiast, but I use AI as a singer I've been looking for all my life. I'm a guitarist and, in my spare time, a passionate songwriter and producer from hamburg, germany.
this page is a place to share some german lyrics written by me over the past few decades and sung by virtual vocalists from  suno 4.0 and, more recently, suno 4.5+. these are based on my compositions, pre-recorded backing tracks and 'prompts' to help the machine get half way close to my imagination.
thank you for listening, and for your indulgence with regard to the literal translations, which prove that there is a fine line between translation and interpretation...
