PEPPER BABY (Lyrics) song for Sarah

THE OLD DARK BARK OAK MUSCULAR TREE
OVERLOOKING THE WHOLE DESERTED COUNTRY
NOT A SHADOW IN SIGHT COS NOT A BIT OF SUNLIGHT
SEEMS TO ME THE RIGHT PLACE TO DWELL FOR A FORTNIGHT 

IF FED UP WITH THE GUNSHOTS THE BLUE BLADES OF THE KNIVES
YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A SPOT TO SELF BURY ALIVE
THE OLD DARK BARK OAK SPREADS HIS OPEN THIGHS
OF HARD WOOD ROOTS JUST FOR YOU LIE 

ME I’M A SON OF A WITCH AND I’VE GOT NOTHING TO FEAR
I TURN INTO A RAVEN WHEN THE DANGER GETS NEAR
GETTING HIGH ON NO DOPE SEE ME FLY HEAR ME CROAK 
ON THE VERY TOP BRANCH OF THE OLD DARK OAK

THE OLD DARK BARK OAK MUSCULAR TREE
ONCE WAS A TENDER SAPLING IN A GREEN COUNTRY
GROWING LEAFY BRANCHES FOR THE BIRDS THERE TO NEST
COOL SHADE PROVIDING FOR THE PASSER BY TO REST

BUT THEN CAME LOVE I MEAN THE LIGHTING
STRIKING FROM ABOVE WITH DOUBLE ZERO WARNING
NO TIME TO THINK NOT EVEN TO BLINK
BLACK A FALLING COS THE WATER WAS INK

THERE’S A MANSION IN THE DISTANCE WHERE NOBODY LIVES
BUT I WOULDN’T RECOMMEND IT FOR THERE’S A BUNCH OF THIEVES
MURDERERS EVIL MANNERED WHO SEEK THERE FOR SHELTER
WHEN THE DEPUTY’S SPECTER IS RUNNING THEM AFTER   

ME I’M A SON OF A WITCH AND I’VE GOT NOTHING TO FEAR
I TURN INTO A RAVEN WHEN THE DANGER GETS NEAR
GETTING HIGH ON NO DOPE SEE ME FLY HEAR ME CROAK 
ON THE VERY TOP BRANCH OF THE OLD DARK OAK

THE OAK (Lyrics)

This is a remake of the song "Triumphant" from Jan Schonander, which he released half a year ago on his site at:
https://soundcloud.com/thegats/triumphant
We both thought, that a small portion of guitar and bass would not harm and I thank Jan to trust me to determine the guitar and bass dose finally :-)

If you like this one, I am sure you will also like a further remake we had created a while ago, which had a similar receipt:

Lyrics:
TRIUMPHANT

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

I can be triumphant
I can see the end
I can see all the people
I can feel the love
Feel the love

From start to end
From way down under
Through all the seasons
From doom and gloom to doom and gloom
Such a long summer
Oh it’s been such a bummer
Over the oceans
I feel the love

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

It’s so beautiful
Brothers and sisters
You’re so beautiful
We walk together

From east to west
Far from our best
From the great wall
To the depths of the canyon
Wave after wave
An endless cycle
We walk together
6 ft apart, 6 ft apart
I couldn’t feel number
And it’s still such a bummer
Deep in your eyes
I feel the love

We can be triumphant
You can be triumphant
We can beat the odds
We can breathe through it

I can be triumphant
I can see the end
I can see all the people
I can feel the love

Triumphant

Joey Bada$$ - "Love Is Only A Feeling" (Prod. By Statik Selektah)

Demos

Five minutes with HinT

This one is "My TV Knows What's Best".  It has a kind of a sci fi feel to it. Basically someone who literally watches too much TV.  It has become his sole source of companionship and information. He knows that it doesn't always make sense, but "the TV knows what's best". And unlike the vast majority of Television viewers, he really does believe everything he sees on TV.    Hope you enjoy!  


Lyrics;
My tv told me so...

Tonight at eleven
They're gonna tell me a story
About the end of everything
But I really shouldn't worry
Cause the late show is next 
Right after the message
Just give 'em 15 minutes 
And they handle any wreckage 

My TV knows what's best

Listen to the whispers
Over black and white pictures
It must be real important 
Cause it's all about perfume
And there's too many people
Earth is overpopulated 
Is the message from the mansion
With 40 empty rooms

And they only want
Everything you've got 
All your information 
Each and every thought
They  want an easy life
You need to be at their beck and call
They only want for you to pay 
for their perfect world that's all 

They say

Don't drive a car  
It's polluting the planet
As they fly around the globe in a private jet
It only takes a dime 
For you to make a difference 
Said the man who keeps nine 
for every ten he gets
You need to clear your conscience 
They will take away your guilt
It's worth every penny
For when their perfect world is built

My TV told me so
My TV knows what's best

Do what you're told
Listen to the T.V. 
It knows what you need
It knows what is best
And They wanna perfect world
Give everything you have
You can keep
your peace of mind
They'll only take the rest

My TV told me so
My TV knows what's best

My TV told me so
My TV knows what's best...

My TV Knows What's Best

Shuffling down the street trying to stay steady on my feet
Bobbing and a weaving to an unheard, off-kilter beat
Waiting for synthetic peace to overtake me
Pharmaceutical serenity to embrace me
Following the footsteps of my shadow trying to catch up with myself
No matter how fast or far I go I never could outrun me
 A bowl of pills for breakfast so I can stand my fellow man

Off Kilter

FEELING BETTER (Lyrics)

WISH YOU WERE FROM HAÏFA AND I’D BE FROM IZMIR
WE’D HAVE A BARMITSVA ON AÏD EL KEBIR
WE’RE ALL MOSE’S CHILDREN AS FAR I KNOW
ONCE A BEAST OF BURDEN AND TWICE A PHAROE 

WISH YOU WERE FROM HAÏFA AND I’D BE FROM ALGIER
I WOULD WEAR A KIPPA AND OFFER YOU A BEER
AN EYE FOR AN EYE AND A KISS FOR A KISS
I’M NOT SUCH A BAD GUY AND YOU’RE SUCH A BLISS   

WISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH
YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH

WISH YOU WERE FROM HAÏFA AND I’D BE FROM IZMIR
I WOULD READ THE TORAH YOU’D BE MY AMIR
HOW ABOUT THE CHUTZPAH OF WALKING HAND IN HAND
AND DANCING A POLKA IN A PROMISED LAND

WISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH 
YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH

WISH YOU WERE FROM HAÏFA AND I’D BE FROM IZMIR
WE’D HAVE A BAKLAVA AND A LOT OF SCHMEAR  

WISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH 
YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH YOU WERE JEWISH

JEWISH (Lyrics)

J’ALLAIS DANS LES BRUMES D’OCTOBRE
LES MAINS DANS LES POCHES NULLE PART
ET POUR UNE FOIS QUE J’ÉTAIS SOBRE
ET QU’IL N’Y AVAIT RIEN À VOIR

J’AI VU NON PAS JÉSUS SUR LES FLOTS
MAIS J’AI VU VENIR À MOI AU PETIT TROT
UN PETIT CHAT

IL S’EST FROTTÉ CONTRE MES JAMBES
COMME S’IL VOULAIT SE FAIRE AVOIR
SANS SE DOUTER QUE DANS SA CHAMBRE
QUELQU’UN L’ATTENDAIT QUELQUE PART

GUIZOU

LES HOMMES SONT SOUVENT L’UN POUR L’AUTRE
DES LOUPS DES LIONS DES LÉOPARDS
ILS SE BOUFFENT LE NEZ ET LE NOTRE
ET PARFOIS NOTRE SEUL ESPOIR

C’EST VOIR NON PAS JÉSUS SUR LES FLOTS
MAIS C’EST VOIR UN CHATON TOMBÉ D’EN HAUT
ET L’AVOIR

MAINTENANT QUE NOUS SOMMES EN NOVEMBRE
LE CHATON RONRONNE DANS LE NOIR
QUELQU’UN N’EST PLUS SEUL DANS SA CHAMBRE
ET C’EST LE DÉBUT DE L’HISTOIRE 

GUIZOU

GUIZOU (Lyrics) for Anouk

IT WAS THE SPRING OF 68 
I HAD A WHOLE LIFE IN MY PLATE
SHINY BRIGHT AS THE MORNING LIGHT 
WAS IT FIRST LOVE AT SECOND SIGHT
OH OH					
A LITTLE WEASEL CROSSED THE ROAD 
ONE SOFT HAND CAME NESTING IN MINE
IT FELT SO RIGHT

OH SCOTLAND YOU DON’T KNOW YOU HAVE NO 
IDEA
WHAT YOU MEANT TO ME
THE LAND THAT HAD TO BE

LIFE IS JUST A FIGURE OF 8 
SOMEONE HAS EATEN IN MY PLATE
AND MY NAME IS I MIGHT HAVE BEEN 
YET MY LIFE TO REMAIN UNSEEN  
OH OH
BUT THROUGH THE MIST OVER THE HILLS 
THE BLURRING EFFECT OF MY SIGHT
YOU STILL SHINE

OH SCOTLAND YOU DON’T KNOW YOU HAVE NO 
IDEA
WHAT YOU MEANT TO ME
THE LAND THAT HAD TO BE

NOW THAT I’M TURNING 68 
TIME CHIMES ARE TINGLING AT THE GATE
FAIRIES ARE DANCING IN THE NIGHT 
IS THERE A LAST LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
OH OH
OH SCOTLAND YOU DON’T KNOW YOU HAVE NO 
IDEA
WHAT YOU MEAN TO ME
THE LAND THAT HAS TO BE

OH SCOTLAND YOU DON'T KNOW

SCOTLAND (Lyrics)

JE PICOLE ET JE FUME	
MA CHATTE AU CLAIR DE LUNE
PROMÈNE

JE L’ENTENDS DANS LES RUES
MIAULER AUX INCONNUS
QUI TRAINENT

HELLO HELLO HELLO
HELLO HELLO HELLO

ET LA VILLE SCINTILLE
ET LA VILLE GRÉSILLE
NUIT BLANCHE
UNE PENSÉE POUR LES FILLES
FRAC NOIR ET BAS RÉSILLE
QUI FLANCHENT

HELLO HELLO HELLO
HELLO HELLO HELLO

HELLO HELLO (Lyrics)

lyrics:

she says - don’t think, don’t move
what are you tryin' to prove?
just be you
she says - let it out, let it breathe
let it crawl out of the sleeve
and i know - all the colors, step by step
are blending with her spiderweb

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

i'm a kind of a dorian gray
and i am faustian, by the way
as long as i feel you 
i am everything you want me to be

my muse 
i pledge my soul to you

NOW THAT I KNOW YOU
THERE IS MORE TO LIFE IT MAKES YOU CRY
THERE'S SILENCE IN THE AIR
NOW WE'RE FAR APART THERE'S ONLY PICTURES OF YOU

Lyrics:
Fix me

I can barely stand on my two feet. 
Sinking, burning, choking
Your “green card” I’m revoking. 
I’m so broke, won’t somebody fix me
I’m so broken, won’t somebody fix me
Through millennia I made me
In decades you have flayed me
Flailing and succumbing, won’t somebody fix me
Flailing and succumbing, won’t somebody fix me. 
(Screams) This is my dying call
(Vox) My waters on the rise
Ash blanketing my skies
Tears welling in my eyes
Life is short but not mine
For your loss I won’t pine
I’m so broke, won't somebody fix me
I’m so broken, won’t somebody fix me
Time it runs short for anti-science cohorts!
Blaaaaaaah!!!!!!

Peace!

Fix Me

Music: Classical Glass and Oddrun Eikli
Poem: by Emily Brontë (30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848)
Pianocomposition and arrangement : Classical Glass. @classicalglass-1
Composition for the vocal, photo and vocal: Oddrun Eikli.

Poem: by Emily Brontë (30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848)
All hushed and still within the house;
Without – all wind and driving rain;
But something whispers to my mind,
Through rain and through the wailing wind,
Never again.
Never again? Why not again?
Memory has power as real as thine

Emily Jane Brontë (30 July 1818 – 19 December 1848) was an English novelist and poet who is best known for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, now considered a classic of English literature. She also published one book of poetry with her sisters Charlotte and Anne titled Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell with her own poems finding regard as poetic genius.

All Hushed and still within the house. Classical Glass and Oddrun Eikli.

This little number is totally inspired by my cat Sixx Vicious (pictured in all his round glory). It starts out with some crunchy blues in a straight forward 4/4 groove, and than morphs into a slow 6/8 groove before exploding into a full gallop 6/8 groove.
Towards the end it slows back down into a shuffle rhythm that fades into a rather different ending...surprise!!!! It's Chonkers.

Chonkers

Beat by Faby beats
Lyrics and Vocals AA

Saving The night is about how love can change how you react and see life, Its about the power love has to change things. As i wrote this I was inspired by my relationship with God and also my relationship with my wife and my daughter and how their love fills my life.

words and music K. Gennery
image not my own


I was stood standing there all alone,
in a room I assumed on my own,
except for the ghost of my past,
who asked if I cared for a dance.
Said that I'd give it a go, oh, oh.

We took two tiny steps forward and three long strides back,
said it feels like the tracks of my life,
I asked her if she would like to stay,
she just smiled and faded away,
oh my, how I wander.

Amongst the shadows, far from the spotlight,
in the quietness I exsist,
singing and playing, playing and singing,
my heart out.

I was strolling along on the beach,
she appeared again a stretch out of reach,
asked, how do you feel at this moment in time I said,
out of touch and incomplete.

Please tell me that you will stay,
she just smiled and faded away, oh my,
how I wander.

Amongst the shadows, far from the spotlight,
in the quietness I exsist,
singing and playing, playing and singing,
my heart out.

Ghost of my past

ABOUT YOU BIG BIRD

There’s a smoky trail across the sky
Behind you big bird as you fly
I’m running waving both hands free
But my mommas come to capture me

My mom she’s got this thing you see
About you bird we don’t agree
She don’t like your fiery tail
She’s gonna capture me and hide away

Big bird flying across the sky
I don’t know you or your reasons why
Big bird do you come to play
Mommas got bad things to say 
About you Big Bird

We been here a thousand years
Momma says that you don’t care
Your fireworks that light the streets
Make houses fall to dust and heat

The baker man went yesterday
A puff of smoke, an empty tray
I kind of liked your flashing bomb
But Momma ranted all night long

About You Big Bird

If you come back there

PATTIE BOYD (Lyrics & note)

For the 31st Solar Kama Sutra song I decided to challenge myself a bit and do something in 7/4 time.  I tried remembering a band I heard do that and thought, "Isn't Pink Floyd's "Money" in 7/4 time?"  I remembered hearing it and thinking it was...

...  Turns out it is!  So for that reason I thought of Pink Floyd, and tried to do a Pink Floydish sound.    It's also a nod to Radiohead's "Pyramid Song".  I tried to capture the same feeling that song gives me, but with Solar Kama Sutra this time. 
(by the way, Solar Kama Sutra has always been just one person.  It's just the name for what I call the music)

Since Radiohead already used "Pyramid" which is well-known since ancient Egypt to be the coolest shape, I had to go with something else.  "Sphere Song" and "Cube Song" ?...  Well...  Those song titles just aren't gonna work....   Maybe "Dodecahedron Song"?....  Hmm... That actually sounds pretty catchy...  Feel free to use it!  

 My vocals are used more heavily on this track than it seems.  Throughout the track I tried to make my vocals sound like guitars and other instruments

  And definitely hats off to Pink Floyd for making a hit song in a 7/4 time signature.   How many times has that been done before?!

And of course, hats off to Stonehenge.  The ultimate inspiration for this track

lastly, much respect & love for all of you who have dropped by once again

- John

How many Rivers?                              



How many rivers must I cross?  I’m tired and I want to lie down,
How many rivers must I cross?  Gotta keep the feeling going
You stand in the doorway, your arms outstretched
I touch you I can feel your pain,
I’m a pale ghost dancing in the moonlight,  I’m a pale ghost dancing away

Dance the way the rivers run
Dance the way the rain falls down
Dance the way the sun wakes up
and dances in your heart

How many rivers must I cross?  It doesn’t seem to get any easier
How many rivers must I cross?  Gotta keep the feeling going
You stand in the doorway your eyes full of fire
exploding all around you I’m a pale ghost dancing
Over the walls up the chimney,  I’m a pale ghost dancing away

Written sung made and played by Emma

How many rivers....?

Goodbye Feather             
Janine Levinson 2020

I sent Jon Lock a raggedy track with vocals, keyboards and some of the worst drums I've ever generated. He managed to make beauty in spite of all of that. I dumped those darned drums and mixed it up once I heard the lovely accompaniment he'd made. Thank you @jon-lock-5

Goodbye Feather 

It’s dark in the morning and you’re asleep
Warm and dreaming while I plan my retreat

I’m nobody’s no one, never wanted you as mine
You've got a real heart, I’m gonna leave you behind

I‘m not as good as what you'll find 

I wish I was as sweet as a song
And as clear as a windy piece of sky
I'd lift you, my Feather    
I'd keep us together
Instead of saying goodbye    
But I'm saying goodbye
Goodbye

Alone here this morning It feels black and white
I drew you in pencil 'cause I overlooked your light

Go find you a painter
With some deeper blues and greens
Not these pale shades of passion
That we're living in between
We're not as good as love can be

I wish we were as sweet as a song
As clear as a windy piece of sky
I'd lift you, my Feather and we'd stay together
Instead of saying goodbye 
But I'm saying goodbye
goodbye

good bye  

good bye    

good bye    

good bye

Goodbye Feather - with Jon Lock

Letra / Lyrics:

No siempre he estado aquí (soy imperfecto) / I have not always been here (I am imperfect)

Cuando tengo frío, o tengo calor, / When I feel cold, or I feel hot,
cuando tropiezo, me quemo, o siento dolor… / when I stumble, I burn myself, or feel pain …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

Me siento extraño / I feel strange
donde tendría que estar a gusto, / where I should to be comfortable,
y me reconforto / and I feel better
cuando me relaciono bien con el mundo. / when I relate well to the world.

Empiezo a pensar en el tránsito; / I start to think about the passage;
que no siempre he estado ni estaré aquí; / that I have not always been nor will be here;
que mi vida es un entretenimiento / about my life being an entertainment
en el viaje a otro sitio. / along the trip to another place.

Y descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
si la meta de todo lo que hago / if the goal of everything I do
es comer y respirar, / is to eat and breathe,
¿qué clase de razón tengo en la cabeza? / what kind of reason do I have in my head?
¿qué soy yo dentro de este juego? / what am I within this game?

 descubro lo profundo / And I discover the deepness
entre tanta superficialidad, / among so much superficialness,
y me pongo a pensar, / and I start thinking,
y empiezo a pensar… / and I start to think …

y  empiezo a pensar que no siempre he estado aquí, / and I start to think that I have not always been here,
y que todo en este mundo es ajeno a mí. / and that everything in this world is alien to me.

Pienso que este cuerpo / I think that this body
que me sirve para moverme / I use to move myself
no es todo lo perfecto que debiera. / is not as perfect as it had to.

No siempre he estado aquí (Soy imperfecto)

SA LIGNE DE HANCHES SON TOUR DE TAILLE
SES YEUX GRIS MANCHE ET SA GOUAILLE                          
SES PAS DE DANSE QUAI MALAQUAIS
ET SES DIMANCHES À VILLE D’AVRAY
J’AIME  

SA PULPE EST BLANCHE BLEUE ROUGE
ET QUAND ELLE FLANCHE ELLE BOUGE
J’AIME ARROMANCHE PIERROT LE FOU
SES BONNES BOUTANCHES ET 400 COUPS
J’AIME

MISS FRANCE
MISS FRANCE
I MISS FRANCE

QUELLE SOIT D’AVRANCHES OU DE NEVERS
A VOIR SES LARMES SCINTILLER
ME COUPE EN DEUX CŒUR À L’ENVERS
SUIVANT LA LIGNE DU POINTILLÉ
YEAH

ET BRUNE OU BLONDE JEUNE OU GRAND-MÈRE
AVEC SES AIRS D’ÉTERNITÉ
TOUTES LES MISS MONDE MISS UNIVERS
PEUVENT BIEN ALLER SE RHABILLER

MISS FRANCE
MISS FRANCE
I MISS FRANCE

MISS FRANCE (Lyrics)

DECEMBER 27 1831
THE SHIP SAILED ON
FROM DEVONPORT
THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM
THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM 
THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM

BRAZIL PERU PATAGONIA
AT HARDLY TWENTY TWO
WHAT ELSE TO DO
THAN SAIL THE WORLD AROUND
AND STEP ON SOLID GROUND
ALL EXPLORATION BOUND

THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM
IT TOOK A FINCH TO FIND
WHAT NEEDED TO BE FOUND
ABOUT THE LIVING KIND

HOP ON A SPACESHIP PLUNGE INTO THE FUTURE
OR KNOCK AT HEAVEN’S DOOR
NO YOU WON’T FIND MORE
THAN WHAT OLD CHARLIE FOUND
WHEN HE WAS OH SO YOUNG
SAILING THE WORLD AROUND

THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM
IT TOOK A FINCH TO FIND
WHAT NEEDED TO BE FOUND
ABOUT THE LIVING KIND

OCTOBER SECOND 1836
THE WINDS BLEW HOME
WHERE SHE DID BELONG
THE BEAGLE AND HER CREW
BRINGING A WORLD ANEW
INCLUDING ME AND YOU

THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM
IT TOOK A FINCH TO FIND
WHAT NEEDED TO BE FOUND
ABOUT THE LIVING KIND

THAT’S WHERE WE ALL COME FROM
