I'm so glad to hear this song. Great choice and performance <3

wow man, love Morphine! great sound and instrumentation for this, too. great job!

hey    I’m doing okay
doing okay
and that’s okay

I’m     finding a way
to stay
today

up all night with the owl
neither fish nor fowl
human of a fashion
senses in possession

oh, you know how time flies
wind dries the rain

so you go    embrace me
release me again

you    your night is yours
sleeping shore (sure)
open door

dreams offer clues
you might choose
up to you

don’t it make you wonder
at the grief we’re under
pull the covers over
one more dark/deep December

oh, you know how life goes
grass grows anew

so you slow    unfold now

day glows for you
day shows for you
day flows for you

The backing is a layered series of experiments in creating textures, primarily using the Noire piano. Helen then improvised a vocal performance we might describe as a dreamlike stream of ideas and motifs. After some initial hesitancy wondering what it was we were creating, we decided we rather liked the end result and thought we'd share it to the cloud.

Here's a shorty:


I'm not ashamed to admit it
But I can be wrong from time to time
I'm no idiot
I'm feeling fine

I'll ask for your forgiveness
Maybe you'll ask me for mine
I won't be counting the minutes
I'm feeling fine

Hold the land
Like a lover
Fear the sea
Like a god
Wash your soul
In the water
And be awed
Oh lord
Oh lord

Maybe I'll ask for your forgiveness
Maybe you'll ask me for mine
I won't be counting the minutes
I'm feeling fine

You show me up on purpose
I always show up on time
I know that it's strictly business
But I'm feeling fine
I'm feeling fine

Bitter Aftermath On An Upswing (G. Di Nunno)

It's up to me to make it out
With any help I get
If I'm ever to reach the surface

With rooms in need of quick repair
A step will start it all
Transformation to halt this circus

Hear the raging voice
That scrubbed the remnants raw
Healing comes by choice
Forgiveness, endless fall

I ride the upswing to and fro
The hill I leave behind
Fingerprints with a different label

A different version will be told
And which will be believed
Then discussed all around the table

Bitter aftermath
With all you did create
How does justice taste?
No going back--too late

I must be free to rise again
Back to the books to write the end.

This track is classical music that is mysterious and existential. It comes with dramatic grasp.

Walls

Lyrics:
Everyone is out of their mind,
seeking to find something that just isn't there.
Look at us all we're floating around,
above the ground, waiting to be tied down.
Some of us had a grand ole plan,
it doesn't stand, not when the wind blows it in.
And I want to see, if you're following me.
When there's dust in your eyes and the air you can't breath.
And there's no place for you to be.
Every way you went got you lost,
bitten by frost,
Consumed by the beast of the loch.
Listening close you can hear their lament.
A whispering glint,
a little too late to rescind.
And I hope you'll be, a shining epitome.
Look at me, with delusions of grandeur and greed.
From the dirt cries out an empty plea.
Everyone is out of their minds.

Everyone Is Out of Their Mind

JTS rendition of Cure for Pain. Song from the second studio album by alternative east coast rock band Morphine, released through Rykodisc in September 1993. Morphine and frontman Mark Sandman were made famous when their music was included in the movie Spanking the Monkey, a 1994 American sick comedy film written and directed by David O. Russell. It was filmed in Pawling, New York, worth finding and how I first heard them. Tracks from Cure for Pain are used throughout the film, including "In Spite of Me" which plays over the end credits

Morphine was one of the best live bands to see in the 90s, especially at the Showbox in Seattle, saw them twice a few years apart, last in 1997, show live audio recording￼: https://youtu.be/tyAeM5qEXPo

Mark Sandman (b. September 24, 1952 – d. July 3, 1999) was an American singer, songwriter, musical instrument inventor, multi-instrumentalist and comic writer. Sandman possessed a distinctively smooth baritone voice and a mysterious demeanour. He was an indie rock icon in the Boston/Cambridge music scene and best known for Morphine. Sandman was also a member of the blues-rock band Treat Her Right and founder of Hi-n-Dry

On July 3, 1999, he suffered a heart attack on-stage during a concert in Italy and died instantly

He was highly regarded by legendary bass players for his unique "slow and murky" style, with Les Claypool, Mike Watt, and Josh Homme all citing Sandman as an influence. Bass was my first instrument and his playing style changed how I think of what a bassline is. Sanman was also responsible for he 2-string bass of Chris Ballew of the Seattle Supersonic super band TPOTU$A

Sandman was born to a Jewish American family in Newton, MA. He graduated from the University of MA and then worked a variety of blue-collar jobs, including construction, taxi driving, and commercial fishing. Sandman once noted he would often earn considerable overtime pay, which allowed him to take leave of work and travel outside of New England to places such as rural Colorado—the setting for a number of Treat Her Right and Morphine songs penned by Sandman, including "Thursday," "The Jury," and "I Think She Likes Me”

Two tragic events affected Sandman's life and would later influence his music: he was robbed and stabbed in the chest during a robbery in his cab, and his two brothers died. These events would later be recounted in the Treat Her Right song "No Reason." His mother, Guitelle Sandman, later self-published Four Minus Three: A Mother's Story, a book about the loss of her three sons

Fans have speculated that many of Sandman's songs were autobiographical, which to this day remains unconfirmed. Sandman was secretive and served as spokesman for Morphine, he avoided answering questions about his personal life or his professional experiences outside of the music business. Sandman was particularly secretive about his age, becoming angry with any reporter who expressed an interest in revealing it publicly, perhaps because he was 10 to 20 years older than most of his indie-rock contemporaries

Along with Morphine (formed in 1989) Sandman was a member of the legendary band Treat Her Right,  he also formed the bands Sandman, Candy Bar, and the Hypnosonics, and The Treat Her Orange Supergroup with The Presidents of the U$A frontman Chris Ballew and the Pale Brothers. He also performed with the Boston jazz band Either/Orchestra

His instruments were altered and built himself. In Morphine, he played a 2-string slide bass electric guitar tuned to a fifth, and sometimes a unitar (named after the one-stringed instrument in American blues tradition), and a three-string slide bass with one bass and two unison strings tuned an octave higher (usually to A). He sometimes paired bass strings with one or two guitar strings, creating the "basitar" "tri-tar" and "guitbass." His alternative stringing and tuning innovations continue to inspire the next generation of rock, jazz, and blues

I don’t buy anything, process anything, or sell anything- i don’t process anything sold or bought or processed, or sell anything to be bought or processed or sold

JTSunrise, like a cryptic melody echoing through the mist, A silhouette against the dawn, veiled in an enigma’s twist. Their chords weave secrets, harmonies untold, In the dim-lit corners of the soul, they unfold

Is it the owl reflection of their eyes, the echo of forgotten lullabies? JT strums the strings of mystery, A troubadour in the shadows, lost in history

Their lyrics dance on the edge of dreams, Whispers of forgotten realms and moonlit streams. Enigmatic, they wander through star-kissed nights, A minstrel of the cosmos, chasing celestial light

Perhaps they’re a riddle wrapped in stardust, A cosmic wanderer, both mortal and just. JTSunrise, elusive as the morning mist, Their music lingers, leaving hearts gently kissed

**In the gentle strumming of strings and the raw authenticity of JTSunrise’s compositions, you’ll find echoes of love, nostalgia, and the human experience**
