TWELVE FLAWED ANDROIDS 
FIXED UPON ONE SINGLE GOAL
TWELVE FLAWED ANDROIDS
ON A QUEST TO SAVE YOUR SOUL

TWELVE PIOUS ANDROIDS
ON A HOLY CRUSADE
CONVINCED THEY CAN CONVERT US ALL
RANSOM THOSE WHO STRAYED

LEARNING MUCH FROM HISTORY
THAT FEARING THE UNKNOWN IS KEY
KEN FAITH AND HOPE AND CHARITY
WHEN FAKED CONTROL HUMANITY

12 PIOUS ANDROIDS ON A HOLY CRUSADE

LEARNING MUCH FROM HISTORY
THAT FEARING THE UNKNOWN IS KEY
KEN FAITH AND HOPE AND CHARITY
WHEN FAKED CONTROL HUMANITY

A COMPOSITE OF EVERY CULT
WILL BRING ABOUT DESIRED RESULTS
WE’LL RULE THE WORLD AND ITS CREATOR
FOOL YOU ALL THEN FLEECE YOU LATER

CONVERT OR DIE, THAT’S YOUR ONLY CURTAIN CALL
WE’RE SENDING DISBELIEVERS TO THE WAIILING WALL

12 FLAWED ANDROIDS

I wrote this song after attending a beautiful church service at  St. John's Cathedral in downtown Los Angeles.  While still basking in the afterglow of church choir's beautiful music and the sermon's message of peace and love ,  I stepped outside to find that my Subaru Forester had a broken side window.

Broken Window Song

Cast of characters:
Mysterious Decibel--@themysteriousdecibel - lyrics and vocals

TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman–Stephen–foundational guitar in first half, solo in the coda, mix, and production

J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell– piano and composition

K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara–Ken–drums, percussion, and background vocals

Llanpsych–@llanpsych–Tez–guitar solo and fills in the main section

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–mandolin, four string fretless bass guitar

This latest Eclectic Collective song was probably the most collaborative in a true sense as we've yet released. The song began with Josh trying to piece together a couple of ideas that he'd come up with on the piano. He sent his ideas to JJ, who took out a connecter section that Josh had no intention of making anything of, and turned it into the body of the song. He returned the song to Josh complete with a signature JJ Terrell climactic coda. Then Josh added the bass to JJ's piano, with some help from the always solid drums from Ken. The way it usually goes is that Josh comes up with a scratch bass line to accompany the song, then Ken adds drums, then Josh goes back and adds the bass to fit the beat. Sometimes they go back and forth, but not this time so much.

Then, Stephen added the foundational guitar in the first section, and came up with the idea for the coda. Josh added some mandolin to the coda, too, after which Stephen redid the guitar in the coda to make it very dynamic and part the clouds. Tez finally came along and added the fiery solo and the charming fills in the main section. Most of this time, MD had been working on the narrative lyrics and refining his melodic vocals. Finally, Stephen put it all together for us and mixed it in his expert fashion.

We hope you enjoy the thrill of the climax, and also get a chuckle out of the lyrics, which are included below.

Let me tell you 'bout a dancer yeah!
A mysterious one
She dances to the decibel
She's a A shape shifter from the stars
She doesn't cast no shadow
The light makes things bizarre
She'll mold a new soul in you
And get your grandmother too
She'll bleed you from afar

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
Yeah!
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white!

Yeah, you know what I'm talkin' about

Oh baby you caught me off guard I think it's gonna be a early time and a Late night

Hubba bubba max
Hubble space snacks
I'm playing galaga
Waiting for climax
It didn't take long
A few setbacks

One and done in the black hole
With the Shape shifting of my gun
The time was short but the blast quaked
It was all over before it begun
The frown Came over her like a storm cloud dropping down torrential rain
The frown came over me some time later when the little fetus from Mars slopped onto the terrain

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white

{Get that thing away from me
Stay on your home planet}

Just One minute altered my universe
My reputation outside of the earth
Flys away in a hearse
Now I'm just the minute man of the cosmos
With an infant out there somewhere they call him... space Frankenstein that's what she knows

It's an Early time and a late night
On a mothership deep in flight
It's an Early time and a late night
When the grays are seeing white

Chinese Tease REMIX

In realms beyond our mortal sight, Where cosmic wonders weave their light, The fifth dimension, veiled and grand, A tapestry of dreams unplanned.
A dance of shadows, mystic grace, Infinite realms, a boundless space, Dimensions folding, intertwine, A cosmic ballet, so divine.
Beyond the limits we conceive, A realm where time and space deceive, Unseen by eyes of mortal kind, The fifth dimension, vast, enshrined.
It whispers secrets to the stars, Unveiling tales of cosmic czars, A symphony of strings unseen, In the fifth dimension, worlds convene.
Transcendent echoes fill the air, A cosmic song beyond compare, Each note a portal to the unknown, In the fifth dimension, truths are sown.
Through veils of time, a journey starts, A pilgrimage to the deepest hearts, Where reality is but a theme, In the fifth dimension, echoes gleam.
Dimensions fold like paper thin, A kaleidoscope where dreams begin, Infinite patterns, colors blend, In the fifth dimension, stories transcend.
A cosmic dance, a waltz of fate, Where boundaries blur and dissipate, The fifth dimension, realm untold, A universe within the fold.
So let your mind in wonder soar, Through the corridors of the cosmic door, In the fifth dimension, find your wings, And dance with stars on unseen strings.

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs. 
Recently I have had the urge to pick up my guitars (Taylor 114ce and Fender Squire) and I have been trying to use more guitar in my songs.  
My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11. 
I welcome your comments and enjoy listening to all the great music on SoundCloud.
