'The Flow' 
Written by Jon Woode 

This is still my most played song on SoundCloud and one of my most precious recordings.

I actually wrote the lyrics to 'The Flow' whilst walking around Waitrose in Canterbury, Kent. The guitar part came later that day. 
I didn't think it suited my voice and really wanted my daughter Sophia (pictured above) to sing it but she was studying for her GCSE exams at the time. I pestered her until eventually she said she would have one go at it in her break. This was the first and only time she sang it.

The Flow was included in Tom Robinson's Fresh On The Net and has had a fair bit of airplay since then, it is still available on SoundCloud and Spotify etc, there is also an instrumental version of the song available.

Sophia's is now an F2 Doctor, so no harm was done in making this recording 🙂

"As soon as this intricately played track gets going, you get a creeping suspicion that Canterbury’s Jon Woode is not supplying the vocals. Deft investigative journalism (reading the track info) reveals the voice actually belongs to his daughter, Sophia, who sings of being an uncontrollable fire that consumes all, then a waterwheel, perpetually pushed around, and finally the air, wind and breeze, “Delivering kisses and scattering seeds”. It’s really as beautiful as that sounds, and proved immensely popular with Listening Post readers this week.

Inside you
Music and Lyrics by JMDahlström

This adventure is so exciting 
I can hardly breathe...
There inside you,
I am waiting, you are waiting,
we are waiting...

A little heart that is beating,
and my heart is rushing

So overwhelming and so sudden
I can hardly find the words...
And here we are sitting together
in our dream boat you and I...

A little heart that is beating,
and my heart is rushing home

Inside You (one take)

"Stay"

Why do blue skies turn to grey
every time when your away
Why does the sun disappear
every time when your not here

Stay
Please stay
Stay 
Please Stay
For one more day

Tear drops fall like rain on my face
when your not here in this place
And all the colors turn to blue
When I'm missing you

Stay
Please Stay
Stay
Please Stay
For one more day

All the birds lose their song
Every time when your gone
And all the stars lose their shine
Oh...Where is this love of mine

Stay
Please stay
Stay 
Please stay
For one more day

Please don't go away
Just stay for one more day

Stay

SOMETHING WENT WRONG - Lyrics

hey - I thought I was living my life
but something went wrong
yeah - I thought I was doing all right
then something went wrong
ooooh - was having the time of my life
till something went wrong
hey - I smiled at the look of your eyes
but something was wrong
 
know it ain't easy love
just to carry on
 
hey - you thought you were taking your time
but for much too long
hey - something seen with your own eyes
made you feel strong
till - something went wrong
oh ... something went wrong
 
never look behind
time can't be rewound
never close your eyes
when you cross the line

Sam and the Black Seas - Something Went Wrong

I tremble when I'm scared and I'm terrified 
To think I'll never see the future home I've been dreaming
The rumbling of the cars surfing down the road
Geese are flying, mountains climbing, through cities and valleys
 
Bitter bitter bitter sun
Brighten up the highway signs
Better better better sing
Unfold the country road
and find my way home

 Wind me up wind me up
Like a wind up toy  
Walking like a little boy
Turn the wheel and make me feel 
Like I have a choice 
 
I'll stay here for the night happy and afraid 
Cause knives and guns can turn you on hit you till you're dying 
The city lights aint far, but there's a forest round this road
And you never know, when you turn if it's a forest or a city where you're going
 
Bitter bitter bitter sun 
Brighten up the the highway signs 
Better better better sing 
Unfold the country road 
And find my way home
 
Wind me up wind me up 
Like a wind up toy  
Walking like a little boy
Turn the wheel and make me feel 
Like I have a choice

Bitter sun, better sing 
Wind me up, walking like a little boy

Countless Ways

Today the grim reaper almost took me in the form of a 65 mph Ford F-250. Afterward I got a beer, then roamed downtown to clear my head. I met a man down and out sitting on a bench named Jason and I decided to buy us a nice italian dinner. We had a picnic under a street lamp. He lost his job three years ago and has been down and out since then. He is originally from Chicago and a dedicated Bears, Blackhawks, and Bulls fan since childhood. 

We spent the evening on a picnic bench discussing the measure of men and the hypocrisy of many of the faithful in this fundamentally christian town. He goes to church every sunday and watches as the words of his gospel are forgotten as soon as people leave church. The sermon could be about helping those in need and he will see those from church the next day pass him by, not even affording him the dignity of a hello. He doesn't ask for donations, not even a cup for change, he survives on faith and water he says.

We spoke at length about the book of Job, how everything was taken away from him yet he still remained faithful and hopeful that the lord would redeem him. Jason says we can never be sure of when tragedy and adversity will take it all away from us, this is why people need to look out for one another. We came to the conclusion that this modern life has so many distractions and has empowered such rampant self absorption that most people forget about the precariousness of their life. On the streets of your town, in the fringes are where the wisest men reside. Go out and seek them, be kind, for today may be your last day to offer such help.
