The thought of the transience of all earthly things is a source of infinite sorrow - and a source of infinite consolation.

Welcome to part 2 of the "Water Planet Project". In this part we see glimpses of the paradise our planet was, on its journey up to the present.  As mankind begins to urbanize and industrialize, the pristine pictures of one of our most important natural resources begin to crack.      
For the best experience, see the visualization of our story which you can find here: www.youtube.com/user/wcifarout.  If time only permits listening to the soundtrack, you will still be able to hear the beauty in Peter's thoughtful words and singing, Ed's lovely electrics, Dan-DT's gorgeous synth arrangements, and my acoustic contribution to Seagull's beautiful song "Milk and Honey Time" that Peter wrote the lyrics for.  
Words are insufficient to express my gratitude to Seagull for his far-ranging vision that brought us all together, and his extraordinary expertise in production that made his vision a reality. 

First song - The Realm Of The Water Fairy by Dan-DT
Second song - Milk & Honey Time by Seagull, David, Ed & Peter
Third song - Whole by Dan-DT & Ed

All narrations, lyrics & vocals by Peter
Contributing vocalist. Clara Sorace

Here you will find the fantastic musicians I share this adventure with:
From Sweden- Seagull: @farout-music-studio
From England - Peter: soundcloud.com/user-264930040/tracks
From France - Dan-DT: @dan-t-3
From Canada - Ed Cunningham: @westtracksmusic

As Soundcloud for some reason does not allow more than 4000 characters, you will find the lyrics to the songs on Seagull's YouTube channel.
We wish you a pleasant musical and visual journey.

Song for Happy People

It's just another working day.  I guess I'd better go.  My presence is required and my funds are getting low.
Don't ask me. Don't ask me.  Don't ask me why I try.  I really don't know why.  Don't ask me why I try. I really don't know why I try.

All it takes is a smile from you and the sky turns from grey to blue.

Beer Cans In The Pool 
Lyrics By: Thomas W. Peterson AKA RedHeart 
 ©COPYRIGHT 9-29-25 All Rights Reserved ©

"Alright y’all… we’re gonna do this Hank Jr. style tonight!
When I holler BEER CANS, you holler IN THE POOL!
Let’s try it now!”

Call & Response (x2):
Singer: BEER CANS!
Crowd: IN THE POOL!
Singer: BEER CANS!
Crowd: IN THE POOL!

Singer (riffing into first guitar chord):
“Yeah, that’s how we do it down here—
Cold beer, loud music, and no rules!
Hit it, boys!”

Verse 1
Well, Friday night rolled around, and we cranked up the sound,
Got a backyard band and the whole gang’s in town,
Neighbors peekin’ over but they can’t stay mad,
‘Cause the party we’re throwin’s the best they’ve had.

Pre-Chorus
The grill’s smokin’ hot, and the jukebox is cool,
But somebody just tossed a beer can in the pool!

Chorus
Beer cans in the pool, boots on the deck,
Shotgun a cold one, what the heck,
Girls on floaties, boys actin’ fools,
Ain’t no rules when there’s beer cans in the pool.
Singin’ hey now, holler if you feel,
Raise ‘em up high, let the good times spill,
Sun goes down but the party still rules,
With beer cans floatin’ in the pool!

Verse 2
Cousin Eddie’s cannonball made a big ol’ splash,
Knocked out the tiki torch and soaked the stash,
Grandma’s dancin’ with a cowboy hat,
Don’t ask me how but I’m good with that.

Pre-Chorus
The night’s still young, yeah, the stars look cool,
And I just saw another beer can in the pool!

Chorus
Beer cans in the pool, boots on the deck,
Shotgun a cold one, what the heck,
Girls on floaties, boys actin’ fools,
Ain’t no rules when there’s beer cans in the pool.
Singin’ hey now, holler if you feel,
Raise ‘em up high, let the good times spill,
Sun goes down but the party still rules,
With beer cans floatin’ in the pool!

Bridge (crowd chant style)
Hey! Hey! Don’t be cruel,
Jump right in with a beer can in the pool!
Hey! Hey! Breakin’ the rules,
We get wild with the beer cans in the pool!

Final Chorus (big & rowdy)
Beer cans in the pool, boots on the deck,
Shotgun a cold one, what the heck,
Girls on floaties, boys actin’ fools,
Ain’t no rules when there’s beer cans in the pool.
Singin’ hey now, holler if you feel,
Raise ‘em up high, let the good times spill,
Midnight hits but the party still rules,
With beer cans floatin’ in the pool!

Outro (spoken / Hank Jr. style)
“Somebody grab me another cold one…
and toss it in, boys!”

Beer Cans In The Pool 9-29-25

Warm, melodic folk ballad celebrating quiet companionship. Gentle acoustic guitar, subtle harmonies, and storytelling male vocals evoke peace and intimacy.

Songs with a twinge of humor (and some a bit more serious).  
I do not use AI to create my songs.

My go to .vst plug ins are  EZkeys 2, EZ Bass and  EZ drummer 3) and my DAW is Logic Pro 11.
