A great tribute to King Elvis Presley, well done Jon!

Great music and I love the topic, Elvis when he started his Vegas residency must be been the most incredible show to witness, 👑🕺

great bass, so groovy! love that jazzy poppy arrangement! great musicianship throughout, you are the boss!

Oh, man, has this got it going on. All of it.

Country boy leaves his small-town life & small-town sweetheart for the big-city life & a big-city girl, and everything seems to be working out grand. But it turns out that there’s just one little problem….

Lyrics

I WAS WATCHIN' A DVD OF ELVIS, IN 1977 IT'S ONE YOU'LL NEVER SEE
IT NEVER REALLY WAS A DVD, I MADE A COPY FROM A TAPE
THAT SOMEBODY GAVE ME, AND ELVIS IS STILL GREAT
 ALMOST 30 YEARS LATER

THE KING LOOKS ALL PUFFY AND FAT, BUT NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE GIVES A CRAP
ELVIS LOOKS LIKE HE'S ALREADY DEAD, HIS BLUE BLACK HAIR IS RUNNIN' WITH SWEAT 
HE HANDS OUT SCARVES TO HYSTERICAL CHICKS, ALL THE WHILE LOOKS BLOATED UP AND SICK
BUT WHEN HE SINGS "HOW GREAT THOU ART", IT'S SOMETHING THAT TRANSCENDS ART

LET ELVIS FREE, ON DVD 
1977, JUST BEFORE HE WENT TO HEAVEN

YOU CAN'T REWRITE HISTORY, IT'S SO MESSED UP IT'S SOMETHING TO SEE
MAYBE ONE DAY WE'LL GET TO SEE IT, IF PRISCILLA AND LISA MARIE WILL FREE IT (SHE'S DEAD)
NOBODY CAN TAKE THAT AWAY, IT'S A REAL PERSON AND THAT'S OK 
THESE MODERN DAY ENTERTAINING FOOLS CAN'T COMPETE
ELVIS IS TOTALLY COOL

LET ELVIS FREE, ON DVD 
1977, JUST BEFORE HE WENT TO HEAVEN

Let Elvis Live

Explanation: Why is there a huge eye in the sky? Diamond dust. That is an informal term for small ice crystals that form in the air and flitter to the ground. Because these crystals are geometrically shaped, they can together reflect light from the Sun or Moon to your eyes in a systematic way, causing huge halos and unusual arcs to appear. And sometimes, together the result can seem like a giant eye looking right back at you. In the featured image taken in the Ore Mountains of the Czech Republic last week, a bright Moon rising through ice fog-filled air resulted in many of these magnificent sky illusions to be visible simultaneously. Besides Moon dogs, tangent arcs, halos, and what's called a 'a parselenic circle', light pillars above distant lights are visible on the far left, while Jupiter and Mars can be found just inside the bottom of the 22-degree halo.

Scream Of The Northern Plains

A song idea in Finnish language - a short demo - summer vibes but not really - Lyrics below: both FI / EN

Sound of rain - my tears for OZZY ... even though he said... No More Tears - RIP.

"Katson ulos, kaikki kaunista, sisälläni tyhjyys harmaana.
En tiedä mistä minne meen, meen sinne minne tie vieneen
On mulla vain hetki tää, ei muuta mitään ihmeempää...

Katson ulos, kaikki kaunista, sisälläni tyhjyys harmaana.
En tiedä mistä minne meen, meen sinne minne tie vieneen
On mulla vain hetki tää, ei muuta mitään ihmeempää..."

Translation of Lyrics

"I look outside, everything is beautiful, inside me only grey emptiness. I don't know where I'm going, I'm going where the road takes me. I only have this moment, nothing else to build on.

I look outside, everything is beautiful, inside me only grey emptiness. I don't know where I'm going, I'm going where the road takes me. I only have this moment, nothing else to build on"

vain hetki tää

You Are The Future Now

(John Stone)

You are the future now
It’s time to recognise it
I’ve  put it off somehow 
But now I’ve come to realise it
Time has had its way
And no one can escape it
No matter what you try to do
The sands of time will get to you
You step aside for someone new 
When all is said and done 
You are the future now

It’s true we’ve had our ups and downs
We never will agree on
Which one of us is standing
On the side of history
But who knows what the future holds
Events will ebb and flow 
The people change their point of view
And when and why we’ll never know

Perhaps there’ll be a time 
When all will be accepted
And those who’ve seen it all before
Are valued and perhaps respected
Reason leads us to
Only what we choose to view
Be open to the things you see
And you may see things differently 
To be the best that you can be
But now your time has come
You are the future now

The cycle rolls around
You briefly take the stage
You will have to understand 
The complications of our age
And those who lived another time
And those who’s views do not align 
Because they walked a different line 
As now it’s up to you

You’ll watch your children grow
And try to teach them what you know
And hope they’ll understand 
The world just how you’ve come to see it
From your point of view
But one day they will rise
And as they look you in the eye
Don’t look away, don’t criticise
The time has come to recognise
That you must tell them too
You are the future now

I'm a conceptual musical artist but the concepts are vague and I'm not willing to explain them.
