Atmospherics are very well done ❤️🔥🔥

This song was written for anyone who is not able to be with the one they love. Being at a distance from a special someone means you have to find ways to stay in touch.

thanks to primcron 100 for writing the instrumental and asking me to sing on it.  The original title was cyber mile and that is how I got the idea for the lyrics. I thought of a couple in love who had to be in a long distance relationship

I wrote and recorded this over a year ago when we were still in lockdown so it really helped me to imagine what this would be like for such a couple.

be sure to support the version my collaborator put out which has over 2200 plays :)

In Touch - primcron 100 ft. Mandy Alicia

A big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx for playing nearly all instruments, arranging and mixing, it was a  pleasure to collab.

Lines in inverted commas quote René Girard (1923 - 2015), also the title of the song points to him.

Mimetic Desire

Man is the creature
Man is the creature

„Man is the creature
Who does not know
What to desire,
And he turns to others
In order to make up his mind.“ (2)

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Mimetic desires

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere
A shadow of a hope ?

Let me have it, let me, let me have it
Let me have it, let me, let me have it

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Sparkling, mimetic desires

„We desire 
What others desire
Because we imitate 
Their desires."

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere hanging out
A shadow of a hope ?

Man is the creature…
Man is the creature…

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don't let the blindness guide you
Don’t let the darkness blind you…

I looked back at the few notes I collected during this Photo Op's song development time-frame and concluded I did not have much to go on after a two year lapse.  The lyrics were not fully documented in my notebook. I must have been using lyric ideas and ad-libbing them into the song. I do not know my state of mind and wish I was better at capturing this closer to the song's conception point.

Life was still fairly locked down due to Covid, Trump was still in-office and the George Floyd protests were ongoing. The song was created without any direct outside musical influence driving the creative direction. This was me inside my studio starting from ground zero and evolving the song over the course of probably several weekends by playing around with sounds, rhythms and textures until a fuzzy shape of cohesion slowly emerged.

Listening back, I suspect, I smashed together two fairly divergent musical ideas. Bold move Dave and perhaps disastrous from a song gluing perspective. I like it anyway. Lyrics were influenced by what was going on around me and one of those things was a narcissist clutching a bible and clearing a peaceful protest with tear gas to enable his next photo op in front of the church.  A holy moment indeed. 

Lyrics
Photo Op
by David Husted

Dew drop dreams
Silly games
Buy some more stuff
Throw it away
Is it me?
Where did I go?
When we turn our backs
let them take it away.

They say it's gonna rain again
I don’t have an umbrella
They say its time to hate again
Photo ops and killing

Is it really so improbable?
State news and oligarchs selling fools
Make lies a game, and fear predominant 
Shake the base of our democracy

I was inspired to write this choral piece by the poem of Emily Dickinson, 'Hope is the thing with feathers".
I am very grateful to Professor Eric Charnofsky for his patience and generous guidance in writing the Choral scores for this piece.
Also, I am taking this opportunity to wish everybody a wonderful holiday and "THE BEST" for 2023.

“Hope" is the thing with feathers"

This song is about one of the best days of my life. It was in 2021 and I spent the day at Port Crescent State Park in Michigan. It was a perfect temperature, crystal clear blue sky day. In the image, that is a picture taken of me with my hand under the sun like I am holding it. 

If I was going to guess my influences on this I would say some of the keyboard stuff comes from listening to a little Miles Davis over the years and the little bass guitar solo spots definitely mimic the great Steve Harris of Iron Maiden whom I wanted to emulate when I taught myself how to play many moons ago. Specifically, the bass solo in Rime of the Ancient Mariner I can hear echoing out of those. Hope you enjoy!

Holding The Sun

This track was created to illustrate the illusion or delusion of time. Time is a man made fear mongering construct... where there's "never enough time," or time is always deemed to be "running out!" Running out for what? Chasing the illusion that doing, doing, doing to have, have, have what never seems to ever be enough for people... especially in western "colonized" society? So many chase the illusion, they don't acknowledge their levels of entitlement in "buying into" the doing to have ensures they even live until the next day, let alone into elder age, to enjoy what they were dictated they "should, could, and would have..." if only they buy into the grand delusion of making the ten percenters that own everything more material wealth. 

Western society bought into the construct "if we do to have, we can have it all, and retire into a life of luxury... where we are entitled to pay the same prices we paid earlier in our lives for things and services, and we can pay servitude only wages to our lineages pretending to be totally oblivious to the fact we are the reason they have to work multiple jobs in order to "make ends meet." The mindset of a lot of folks is... "We worked hard for what we have and we should be able to sit back and enjoy it, we've earned it, we're retired." Sadly, too many do not see they are simply blind to it being part of the grand delusion by design. The folks who "sold you" that "bill of goods" never gave a rats arse about ensuring the work environments, or the natural environments were or continued to be safe for us and our lineages. Instead we've paid taxes to government agencies who permitted and continue to permit and approve the poisoning of what was once true mother nature led health care into sanctioned only pharmaceutical drugs that freely advertise their toxicity, we feed our kids and ourselves products like cereals, juices, and candy laced with chemicals and petroleum products and cry out "WHY" in angst... despite the evidence being right in front of our faces... if we choose to see it, hear it, not mock, belittle, and bully; but instead, BE KIND to those freely speaking about these truths out of love for you and the planet. Time is running out; but not in acquiring the wealth of the world... but, in seeing how we've been causing our own ailments and painful existences and demise... by believing one should do more, have more... at any cost to others, including our own families... to be or feel superior. Time's running out to see it's all simply a huge game and we are all pawns, unless we decide to pack up the game board and refuse to play.
