thats very true. Music makes me feel connected to my own feels. And have a good connection with your feelings is always important for a good life

Many of us have cause to thank Jools for her support over the years, myself in particular.  This is just a small way of saying 'thanks'.

For Jools, Bringer of Gifts


How many songs will I write for my mother... at least one more. 

I originally recorded a demo version of this song just two months after she died. Here is the original.

Recorded/Mixed: Audacity

Lyrics:

I wanna know
Where did she go
I wanna know

I wanna know
Where did she go
I wanna know

Is it in the trees
Blowing in the breeze
I wanna know

Is it on the page
Where her eyes last laid
I wanna know 

Mother mother mother 
Take me
To your place
Of endless rest

Mother mother mother mother
Break me
Put me
To the ultimate test

I wanna know
Where did she go
I wanna know

I wanna know
Where did she go
I wanna know

Birds flying high
High in the sky
Oh why
I wanna know

Lyrics:

Forest Giants

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Hey loner
Come over
To my forest
It's getting warmer
Stay hidden
Forbidden
It's written on the wind

On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on and on
On
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

S-The Groove of Dorian Gray

I don’t wanna hate myself …but I do ..I denegrate myself .because of you ..because of you …you twisted my intention …lies to sick to mention …I don’t wanna hate myself but I do …because of you …you stripped away my confidence til I was left defenceless…small and trembling..echo of my voice came back to wake me …so I gather my inner army …gaze upon my righteous rage …as I undo the bars of your cage around me …
..you were the loosest screw of all ..I love to see how far the mighty have to fall …the loosest screw of all …I stole your crown and now it’s you who has to crawl ….
I don’t wanna hate myself but I do ..because of you
I still fuckin hate myself …
I won’t let you use me anymore 
I don’t wanna hate myself 
All the time ….i was mine ….
When will I wake up …..
You …were the loosest screw of all….

You make me feel
Connected
To the Source
In a way
that is like
Mainlining
Pure Vibration 

The Power of Music!

PROOF OF LIFE
Your heart beats
the rhythm of
your Conscious Self
Your blood pulses
the journey of
your physical body
Spirit pervades
Spirit is the fuel
Together it is
Proof of Life 
Which we begin
with a cry
and leave 
with a sigh
But Love
Oh Love
Love is the Essence
Love is the Rhythm 
Love is the Pulse
Love is the Fuel
and it has nothing 
nothing to prove.....


Proof of Life


Dust & Glory

It's a temporary thing
This Living Fling
Here today and
Gone tomorrow
We write our Story
Perform for Glory
Until we Rust and 
return to Dust
An Ephemeral Mote
In the Cosmos' I
￼



Dust & Glory

If you want to ride
That perfect wave
Knowing your Balance
Knowing your Power
Don't be afraid
To crash and burn....
Love is a parachute 
Step out into the Darkness
Without a hand to hold
Drift in a downwards spiral
Towards terrors untold
Land on the Earth
Both feet on the ground
Your beating heart
The only sound
Notice the waterfall
As it cascades down
Walk into the water
And know you won't drown
This baptism of Fear
This Surrender of Self
Will carry you through
To the Valley of Light
Where all that you are
And all that you can be
Are One and the Same
And Know that after all the pain
This Initiation will set you free, again....🙏❤

Love is a Parachute

I bought Youth a passport
and invited it to stay
We were going to have such fun
Carousing the night away
But Time had another plan
Too cruel to anticipate
It hijacked the opportunity
And offered Age as my Fate......

And Spontaneity is slack
And Hope is waning
The Day is almost done
So little time left for Fun
Memory is my Companion
As I weave this map of Life
We carouse this Dance together
Spinning towards the end of Strife.....

Tempus Fugit (it’s legit.!)

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
