This is my favoritest piece.

Bach wrote this as part of the 3 third Violin Partita BWV 1006.  

The version I play has some added counter melodies known as 1006a.  This version is most commonly played on guitar.  

I believe this piece reflects perfectly the creation of the universe.  Both the big bang theory and the biblical account.  It starts on a low E.  Then Bach arpeggiates the E chord.  Then we get E scales.  Then crazier scales.  Soon we moves to keys further away from E.  I believe each piece by Bach is itself a tiny universe.  Most of Bach's Fugues are as complex as our own universe.  I suppose all pieces of music are tiny worlds, but none resemble our own as much as Bach's music in my opinion.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

Thanks to and inspiration from John Lennon's 1968 BBC interview at the National Theatre and the incredibly nostalgic poem 'I Remember, I Remember' by Thomas Hood.

If You Got Soul

If you got soul
You gotta roll

When I was a boy
It would be easy for me to try
To believe all the words that were written in the books
By the seers and the gods on high
Sky high
There's a lie in the lie
That they want you to buy
It's a lie that you can't ask why
But now I am older
Got that weight off my shoulder
Lift my finger up and point to sky

No soul destroyer's gonna
rock and roll her baby
No state infraction's gonna
Suppress the action now
Insanity attack
Distortion of the fact
Maniacal quack
Dehumanising
An automatic fact
The stick is in the back
Establishments react
Do they see their own writing
On the wall?
Do they see their own writhing
At all?

If you got soul
You gotta roll
And we the people
We gotta get to go

When I was that boy
It would be easier for me to fly
But now I am older
Got that weight off my shoulder
Lift my finger up and point to sky
Sky high
It was a child's sweet ignorance
But oh so little joy
To know I'm further off from heaven
Than when I was a boy

If you got soul
You gotta roll
And we the people
We gotta get to go

It is certainly a privilege to sing to the notes of a splendid melody (Approuching midnight) composed and played by my dear Canadian friend Philip (@classicalglass-1)
Thanks for stopping by and listening from both of us
Paolo
I troppi si e la paura del perdente
Ti renderanno schiavo sai
nessuno mai abbastanza ti ringrazierà
E fermati a riflettere 
Quando narciso attaccherà
per pochi spiccioli non vendere
La dignità
 
Ci proverò a dire no
Quando la rabbia supera l’amore
Tu giura che nessuno mai potrà passare il limite
Difendi il lato tenero dell’anima
E’ notte fonda e sono ancora sveglio
E so anche il perché
Domani dovrò dire di no …e lo farò

Non ho mai perso il sorriso
dentro di me
e con la gioia nel cuore
io morirò
io morirò

Too many yeses and the fear of the loser
They will enslave you, you know
no one will ever thank you enough
stop and think
When narcissus will attack
for a few pennies do not sell
Dignity
 
I'll try to say no
When anger overcomes love
You swear that no one will ever cross the line
Defend the tender side of the soul
It is late at night and I am still awake
And I also know why
Tomorrow I'll have to say no ... and I will

I have never lost my smile
inside me
and with joy in the heart
I will die
I will die

Devo dire no - Classicalglass & Mayadog from " Approaching midnight" by Classicalglass
