Top to bottom, superb performance of this thoroughly charming cover. A wonderful folk instrument playing, and gorgeous vocal delivery.  This is a real treat for the ears and heart.

Lovely to hear a happy song in these troubled times.

I love yer Voice, man! Sing on... Sing On! :-D

You nailed it in this style - gripping song

Great stuff - I love authentic songs from the heart. Great 90’s pop sound to my ear too. Liked!

Always loved this tune by Delaney & Bonnie. Great job, Josh. Liking your spin on this classic.

StateOfGrace

I went down  to the corner market
To talk to the local prophet
He said $   12.50 please will that be cash or charge

Went home to my one room kingdom
To drink of the liquid wisdom
And let the spirit take the pain away
Take me far away to a better place
Take me back 
To a State of Grace

You know sometimes I’m feeling up 
Sometimes I feel a little down yea
Just trying to get ahead
But I just keep going round and round

Called in to the Tex Mex Shamen 
He said yea man keep on rocking
So I practice my licks till I feel in my finger tips

Let the spirit take the pain away
Take me back
To a State of Grace

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Solo¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

You know sometimes I’m feeling up 
Sometimes I feel a little down yea
Just trying to get ahead
But I just keep going round and round

So I search out the online gurus
To yourself they said to be true
The more you know the more that you will grow
And so it goes

Let the spirit take the pain away
Take me far away to a better place
Take me back 
To a State of Grace
To a better place
To a State of Grace

Now as for this song:  If you can tell me what this song means please let me know... (oh and sorry these are the lyrics but they're a bit scrambled....hmmm ...scrambled scrubbing bubbles!)

Scrubbing Bubbles

meme bars 	  cream cream  obscene dopamene         scrubbing bubbles
germ dream 	  come clean 	contraband ampersand 	scrubbing bubbles 
shaving cream scrubbing bubbles 		pipe dream Steam Clean
dopamene 	  scrubbing bubbles 

outerspace hyperspace 	Nebuloid 		I got lost 		Hear me?
spatial myopia 			Planetoid 	        in the stars 	        in the fucking stars
woops in your brain 		desert gray
sweaty sky

I'm a doctor pie in your face
Not a packoid

suck the new low tar
filtered pacifier

in your face  in your place

Wasting Time

A Hundred Years From Now 
by Caddigan, Brennan and Story (1914)

Every one today is going crazy,
Everyone today is going mad
Each one is trying to do something decidedly new
Just to put the rest in bad
Everyday they change the style of dancing
Everyday they change the style of dress
Oh, Boys what is it coming to?
That's a problem we will have to guess

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

Picture this town that once was just a pasture
Picture the girls who roam'd it years ago
They were the wonderful kind
You know the kind I've in mind
The sort of girl the world calls slow
Think of a girl today out in a meadow
Raking the hay a la decolletée?
No chance not in a thousand years
The girls today are all for cabaret

I wonder what kind of life they'll lead 
A hundred years from now?
I wonder what's going to be the speed
A hundred years from now?
The girlies are setting a pace today
That's turning the locks of gold to grey
We're living a life of constant alteration

I wonder if they'll have a tango dance
A hundred years from now?
I wonder if men will wear short pants
A hundred years from now?
There's no solution
It's all evolution
I wonder, and wonder, and wonder
How much the girls are going to wear
A hundred years from now?

A Hundred Years From Now (Caddigan/Brennan/Story, 1914) [cover/version]

This song appears on an album called Synthastic alongside those some other amazing musicians with whom my Swiss friend, the very talented and gracious Karin-Maria Brunner collaborated. It's an album centered around the synthesizer, whatever sounds one can get from it, based on her ideas. I cannot properly express my depth of honor and gratitude to her for including me with musicians I admire, like Frans Beelaard, and for sharing her creative seeds with me. Karin-Maria is a truly exquisite musician, with a very disciplined style and mind for musical precision, as well as beautiful melody. You can find her on here under her name. She actually shared two songs with me for this project, and this is the first of those. I tried to come up with an interesting, modal melody for both, in hopes of impressing her. I hope it has the same effect on you. I also provided the beat and bass line for this song. You can find the entire album on your favorite streaming service. We appreciate your listens! 

Magic Hour (with Karin-Maria Brunner from her album Synthastic)

This is alternative rock song. It has originality and also drama. Mood of this track is sadness.

Tragedy

My 'Adagio for Expanded Chamber Orchestra' draws heavily on the music of the late romantic composers Bruckner Wagner and Mahler but does its (acknowledged)borrowing in a uniquely improvisational and individualistic style style for which I make no apology.
The music in this piece is sometimes dramatic, and as the piece unfolds, its structure in terms of the golden section durations it employs become evident and I hope pleasing to the listener
This track was mastered by John Cafarella.

Sweet Mystery

Somethings you don’t mention.
See them but don’t say.
Not up for conversation.
Words might misbehave.

Staying undiscovered.
Just outside of view.
Nothing much to speak of.
Much to misconstrue.

Little Daisy Bracelet with her daisy chain.
Playing in the garden, praying it won’t rain.
Petals need protection, yellow hearts do too.
Little Daisy Bracelet, not quite like me and you.
Her feelings are true.

A kind of contemplation.
Expression deep in thought.
Forever living just beside.
Fleeting, never caught.

A rare communication.
Same process, different mind.
Tenderest of tender moments.
Her eyes lock on mine.

Little Daisy Bracelet standing in the rain.
Holding her umbrella, playing dead again.
In her head she’s dreaming but through her eyes we see.
Little Daisy Bracelet’s not quite like you and me.
She will always be free.
