great song John!. nice guitars 🎧😃🙏

Really enjoyed this song John. Vocals are really chilled. Great bass as well [via https://sc.repostexchange.com]

Interesting concept ... very 60's 70's I felt... quite a bit nostalgic. Ta

great classic prog sound, excellent composition!

@progrockdan1: Thank you...been checking out and enjoying your material as well.

Beautiful work! On all levels, beautiful. Such cool progressive styling. My turntable was full of prog rock in my teens and early 20s. My own writing is very influenced by this. I can appreciate your principles in the philosophy you describe in your bio, so with that in mind, I am honored that you liked our tune. And I am glad also because that brought me to your music. Thanks!

Like it !! It's a really good production with awesome arrangement ˜Andrea

Música de altos vuelos, saludos amigo, escuchando aquí en México!

this is fantastic here John I love the vocals and the groove

All light enters me, unfettered, unbound and free.
My ego retreats in fright, to an unconscious twilight.

A bursting forth has begun, I begin to see all things as one.
A spark in me catches fire, unchained of all earthly desire.

All time and space flows in me, I dissolve in infinity.
Universal perception and sight, I merge with the source and the light.

Words and symbols lose their meaning, 
the universe opens wide.
A burning light opens wide, 
erasing my ego, my pride
and in this oncoming tide, I succumb.

Time and space expand and fade, 
my comprehension, it grows.
I'm free from the ebb and the flow, 
I am the above and below
dissolved in this mounting glow...I awake!

Ooh time

As the clock ticks the mist rolls in
A sea of time where ends begin
Lost in the haze a whispers in the wind
On the evening tide my soul adrift

I search for signs in the shifting sand
Time slipping through like grains in hand

Where are you?
I was here all the time
Fading away lost in the tide
Where are you...

Where are you?
I was here all the time
Fading away lost in the tide
Where are you...

Ooh
Ooh

Beneath the moon's enigmatic gaze
Through the fog of forgotten days
Echoes of you, like a distant light
In the depths of night... I fight the fight

Where are you?
I was here all the time
Fading away lost in the tide
Where are you...

Where are you?
I was here all the time
Fading away lost in the tide
Where are you...

Echoes fade but hope ignites,
Guide me through... these endless nights

Where are you

Theme of Emily

Where Are You

Megalopolis Dawn

What? whichever! they roll. 
Can't believe I'm still standing up.
I really don't feel that old.
It gets tight the second time around.
Starts a-taking its toll.

Now there's no one a-listening.
To all the things I don't say.
There's only pieces left, a-hang about.
But we all took our pay.
As I stare down the window pane.
It's all just blowing away.

We fall by the side.
You know that we tried.
We all start to slide.
Though we tried, and we tried, and we tried.
Lord, we tried.

Well, here is a memory.
And here is the cold.
Here's a friday to wait upon.
If you'll carry my stone.
Here lays all your sympathy.
Which you bought to be sold.

Take your well-heeled fake jesus.
Take your ideals of love.
Take your fake plastic empathy.
Fits you like a glove.
Take anything you want from me.
I will never give up.

We fall by the side.
You know that we tried.
We all start to slide.
Though we tried, and we tried, and we tried.
Lord, we tried.

We Tried

Released in April 2024, version 1.0. 
This track is made as an inspiration of going against the flow. Do not follow all that anger and misery - bad decisions and bad feelings in the world between people - in politics and public ignorance. When old men rules the world and make all people go blind. 
I have a Dream on behalf of mankind…

What Martin Luther King said on August 28, 1963 is still top relevant between people and nations around the world to day in 2024. Sadly…

I Have A Dream (Instrumental with Martin Luther King Speech)

Sitting by the trees. 
Contemplating on the springtime. 
But, now I'm never alone. 
Bout, how I'll never feel the hold of you. 
As you'd do.
Let me tell you something that's a-bothering me.
A monkey puzzle doesn't trouble growing it's leaves.
On the whole...
things are fine...
But I'd sell my soul, for some more time.
Sitting by the sea. 
Contemplating on the ocean. 
A little notion of devotion. 
Oh, how they'd all take-a that potion too. 
As you'd do.
Let me tell you somethings always bothered me.
It's the fact we have to worry about fucking money.
On the whole...
Space flys by...
But I'd sell my soul to the devil for one more try.
Sitting by the...
Out beside the trees.

Let me tell you somethings always bothering me.
Does an ant know what he's doing when he's cutting his leaves?
On the whole...
There's hills to climb...
But I'd sell my soul, to get what's mine.
Sitting by the...
O'er by the leas...
Contemplating on the wonder.
And how I keep from slipping under. 
How I hold it all together for you. 
Just for you.
Let me tell you something that's a-bothering me.
A monkey puzzle doesn't trouble growing its leaves.
Let me tell you somethings always troubled me.
I can't put my finger on what's a-bothering me.

MUSIC FOR THE THINKING FEW.

(NOTE: I only repost songs I REALLY like...and they usually don't involve an 808, misogyny or Autotune...and at my age I'm FAR more interested in quality connections with listeners than going "viral". ALSO: mostly an aging rock/folk/prog/indie guy...can't really judge or really relate to Hip-Hop, Auto-Tune and other more modern styles...sorry.)

John Ludi is a musician/singer-songwriter/cultural relic with a diverse and "arty" array of influences and lyrical interests who was "Indie" before the term even existed. Working outside of the music industry by choice has given Ludi the ability to release songs of a level of lyrical depth that are anathema to the current culture.  Ludi lives off-grid in a yurt in the woods of WI and finds the materialistic priorities of our civilization incredibly wrong and destructive.
