The Idle Moment

I Will Always Love You(Dj Mac Remix)

Hey Stranger

Violet

This is contemporary and reflective song about evilness in God's name.
Probably the sadest song I've ever written. 

YOU KILLED A GOOD MAN YESTERDAY©

You killed a good man yesterday
It was on the news today
I didn't know just what to say
when you took his life away

It's a shame
It's a shame
You killed a good man yesterday

You were holding up his head
and the sky was turning red
He was begging for his life
when you in hatred, raised the knife

It's a shame
It's a shame
You killed a good man yesterday

(solo)

Save a prayer for his soul
For his famiy and friends
You killed a good man yesterday
And the angels carried him away

You say you're following God's will
And God gives you the right to kill
But I wonder what he'll say
when you face the judgement day?

It's a shame
It's a shame
You killed a good man yesterday
It's a shame
It's a shame
You killed a good man yesterday

Will The Circle Be Unbroken

“I woke up one morning with a melody in my head. I had dreamt it and I was so afraid of forgetting it that I grabbed my phone and recorded it immediately. Technology has its uses, after all. It was such a gorgeous melody that I felt the need… no, I felt the urge to finish it. So I sent my horrible phone recording with my 7 am singing voice to Torbjørn and asked him if he would like to work on that song I had just dreamt of. When he replied to me saying that he liked the idea, I was over the moon with joy! I truly admire his music so I knew something good was in store for this song. But I never imagined it could get this good! I was so incredibly surprised when he came up with such an amazing instrumental track. He definitely took it to the next level. That melody I had dreamt of is now the chorus of ‘Without You.’ I hope you enjoy it.” Jime.-

Lyrics

The night falls 
And sleepless I grow
As dark thoughts invade me
And I am sinking so low

Inside there’s blackness
The shadows dance on
And I can only feel your absence
As I crawl into bed heartbroken
You’re not there…

I don’t wanna wake up without you
I don’t wanna cry and see my whole world fall through
I don’t wanna find somebody new
How do I learn to get on without you
When you feel the same way too

The crack of dawn
Takes ages to come
I won’t survive the dead of the night
And I am scared to the bone without you
Are you there?    

I don’t wanna wake up without you
Can’t help but break down, babe if only you knew
Now what am I supposed to do?
How do I learn to get on without you
When I know you love me too?

Rescue me…
Rescue me…

I don’t  wanna wake up without you (Don’t want to wake up)
Can’t help but break down, babe if only you knew
Now what am I supposed to do?
How do I learn to get on without you
When I know you love me too?

Oh oh – Woah woah…
Rescue me…
Rescue me…
Rescue me…

I can’t stand the pain
My life is in vain without you
I’m bleeding to death
My thoughts are profane
As I let out my last breath

Wonderland / cinematic reggae

Instrumental version of “I shot the sheriff”, the song written by Bob Marley (The Wailers).

Some days ago, Alphio (@alpha-roots) sent me the rhythm track of this song, and kindly asked me if I would jam with it. I said Yes... It's one of my all time favorite songs again.

His initial version sounded great to my ears as I instantly loved it, but when I started jamming along, I personally felt that it was a bit too slow for me to add the lead melody so on... and bass sounded a bit too low (despite that original key is Gm, it had -1 octave + 1 tone= Am) and worried that bass would sound less prominent and not audible through the speakers as compared with the other parts I’d first planned to add.
I also wanted to have a little more up-down accent patterns and accessory notes so on for the bass line (especially for the verse A) in this regard and chordal variations as well on the rhythm guitar as the original has more and a little more for own arrangement.  

So, I revised almost all parts on his initial track except the hand percussion by him [>> Details below ].

The initial track can be heard here, please check it out：
https://soundcloud.com/alpha-roots/i-drummed-the-sheriff

I apologize for I've destroyed Alphio’s minimalism...but I had much fun working with it and I would like to thank him again for his kind offer and for allowing me to arrange it freely. 

My arrangement basically followed Hiram Bullock’s cover version (Jazz Rock version with ‘Guitar vocals’) except the rhythm guitars and the ending solo sections adding some improvised phrases of mine.
Well, I could play other versions as well - original studio version, Clapton’s cover version etc -  but, since I’m not a good singer, I decided to do like this anyway. 
Hope you enjoy. Any feedback would be appreciated.

--------------
The original music was written by Bob Marley (The Wailers) for their album “Burnin” (1973)
Hiram Bullock’s version can be heard in their album “Manny's Car Wash” (1995) and in some albums of Jaco Pastorius.

- Drums-1 / Bass Guitar-1 / Percussion / Rhythm Guitar-1

[Revision of Initial rhythm track]
- Changed the tempo (about 11% faster than the initial one).
- Shifted up the key of whole track an octave(keeping Am) and mixed it with the initial track to have a bit more treble tone of bass (it was not able to do re EQ-ing of the bass separably as I received the single mp3 mix)
- Extended each section of main theme (intro and interludes) and altered the rhythm parts of them
- Changed some rhythm patterns (altered Hi-hat patterns, etc.) especially on verse B sections.

[Addition by me]
- Drums-2 (All fills, Addition of other Cymbals, Toms, Kicks and of Snares; the later two are mainly only for the theme and for 3rd & 4th verses solo sections)

- Lead Guitar-1 (Distortion guitar with or without pedal-wah for “guitar vocals” & solos )

THE MUSIC DIED TODAY

IT WAS A SAD DAY TODAY 
IN OUR SMALL TOWN
THE RADIO STATION
IT CLOSED DOWN

FOUNDED IN FIFTY
A LOCAL LANDMARK
PLAYED LOTS OF MUSIC
SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART

CHORUS
THE MUSIC DIED TODAY
IN MY HOMETOWN
THEY FLIPPED THE SWITCH
AND IT WENT AWAY
YOU CAN BLAME IT ON THIS
YOU CAN BLAME IT ON THAT
WHAT MORE CAN I SAY
THE MUSIC DIED TODAY
WHAT MORE CAN I SAY
THE MUSIC DIED TODAY

NO MORE REQUESTS
MEMORIES TO BE MADE
THOSE DAY'S ARE GONE
DEJAY'S WERE THE BEST

TEARS FLOWED FREELY
AS AMERICAN PIE PLAYED
AFTER SIXTY SEVEN YEARS
WHY WAS THE CALL MADE

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Old Swimmer And Me - (Original Song)

Written and Performed by: Michael Duffy

Song about a dog and his owner. As a kid I played allot down by the old Cart river with my dog, good times. Hope you enjoy the song ;)


Lyrics: Old Swimmer And Me

I got an old dog and I call him swimmer
Found him by the old cart river
Stuffed in a sack and left out for dead
Took him home and gave him a bed

Old Swimmer and Me

One ear up and the other down
He’s a peculiar looking hound
Loves to run and jump and play
Stays by my side most night and day

Old Swimmer and Me

He’s always out in the garden digging
Shoe chewing, butt sniffing and ball licking 
He barks from morning light right into the dark
I swear that old dog would hear a mouse fart

Old Swimmer and Me

He rides shotgun with me up in the truck
Stinky old hound covered in muck
Playing the fool and chasing cats and cars
Come feeding time ya never have to look far

Old Swimmer and Me

He hates the postman and eats all my mail
Welcomes me home with a waggling tale
I can’t stay mad at him for longer than a day
He just likes to do things in his own crazy way

Old Swimmer and Me

Tilting his head at something that I said
Likes to lay around all day in the shed
Sticks his old black nose in my face in the morning
Takes up half the bed with his twisting and turning

Old Swimmer and Me

I guess we two are just one in the same
Left out for dead until someone kind came
Given a home, food and some country lovin
If it wasn’t for old swimmer hell I would have nothing

Old Swimmer and Me

Swimmer passed away just last year
He took his last breath and I shed a tear
I laid him to rest down by the old cart river
Around about the spot where I named him swimmer

Old Swimmer and Me
Old Swimmer and Me
My old pal

Old Swimmer and Me - (Original Song)(c)

Her wheels stopped at a dusty old town
finally’d found a place to settle down
Sat back at evening's pale light
as her troubles softened in the cool and tender night

She was bathed in that soft moonlight

He'd lost it all, his child and his wife
long time running now he wanted back his life
Headed west, snow peaks in sight
as his burdens lifted into the clear blue night

He was bathed in that soft moonlight..and he said

I got a river of change running through my head
Ten tons of trouble I just can’t forget
And all this time wearing down looking round for something better
could this be it?

Their paths crossed, but they would not dare
too much to lose, nothing left to spare
But wonder beckoned one hushed and rainy night 
as fear surrendered at dawn's breaking light

They were bathed in the soft moonlight..and she said  

I got a river of change running through my head
Ten tons of trouble I just can’t forget
And all this time wearing down looking round for something better
could this be it?

Could this be it? How will I know if I should open up, or let it go..
How will I know, how will I know, how will I know..

Under the shade of the mountain pine
two stories born of the same design
Then together they set the past to rest
laid their heads back with the ease of lover's blessed

They were bathed in the soft moonlight

I got the rivers of change running through my head
Ten tons of trouble I just can’t forget
And all this time wearing down, looking round for something better
could this be it?

They were bathed in that soft moonlight
