Description: A traditional song … Simon and Garfunkel by way of Paul McCartney and Wings interpretation! Be very careful what you wish for!

Nice guitar panning - creates some nice movement. Awesome punk energy in the vocal 🤘

Excellent instrumental and vocal deliveries throughout that really makes the song come alive in a vibrant and intriguing way !!

Fantastic guitar, cool rock version!! Gives it a way different feel than the original.

Hey Ken man, really dig your guitar work on this. You really nail the vocals, too, bro. This is a great rendition of this great old song. Way to go with it, brother man!

Wow-- What a lovely Tune to add to your Portfolio:)

👏👏👏great version, superb performance

Very cool track, Ken!  Never heard this one before.

Music & Lyrics: Jan Schonander

A lot going on in this song. The original idea was to take the idea of ostinato to the extreme. This was accomplished by using an arpeggiated Eb throughout - of course there was some work that went into the modulation and envelope of the synth I chose. I used the same synth varying the number of notes and direction of the arpeggios to get the sounds that define the track. 

In music, an ostinato (Italian: [ostiˈnaːto]; derived from Italian word for stubborn, compare English obstinate) is a motif or phrase that persistently repeats in the same musical voice, frequently in the same pitch. Well-known ostinato-based pieces include classical compositions such as Ravel's Boléro and the Carol of the Bells, and popular songs such as Donna Summer and Giorgio Moroder's "I Feel Love" (1977), Henry Mancini's theme from Peter Gunn (1959), The Who's "Baba O'Riley" (1971), and The Verve's "Bitter Sweet Symphony" (1997).[WikiPedia]

Lyrically I wanted to capture the hysteria of the Chinese balloon while addressing the fact that many of us voluntarily allow ourselves to be monitored by the government and private enterprises. We pay for Google Assistants, Alexa, Siri etc and I think I'm not the only that get's the AI saying it didn't understand after periods of absolute silence. It is also a known fact that private enterprises monitor our e-mails and we voluntarily sign up for this  - who knows who is analyzing and parsing that information. I have worked for decades in the telecommunications business and for those that don't know there is a feature called "Lawful Intercept" that all suppliers are obliged to enable - this allows authorities to listen in on any communication they deem fit. Lastly, while using free services like Facebook we allow the monitoring of our habits, many of us with a grudge, but still we allow it, and social media is becoming more and more pervasive so it seems we want more.

SHAKE THE FEELING 

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you feel like
Someone is listening
Hear voices in your head
Sometimes you feel like
Someone can see you
Looming over your shoulder

It’s not the first time
It’s not the second time
It’s not the last time, no

High and low
In and out

Can’t shake the feeling
Runs through your body
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
A drug in your mind
In and out

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sometimes you can hear
A stranger in your house
And you spent all your money
Sometimes think you know
A machine is reading
You signed the dotted line

Sometimes you’re afraid
A lawful intercept
You voted for them
All the time you don’t care
They’re recording you
Nothing is for free

Can’t shake the feeling
I never ever wanted this
High and low
Can’t shake the feeling
Why can’t I say no
In and out

Can’t shake the habit
It’s my addiction
Ask for more
Can’t shake the feeling
I don’t want to
I want more

What are they looking at
What could they be looking for
Looking for
Looking for

Sorry I didn't quite get that

Shale The Feeling

Shake The Feeling

telephone the twilite zone and check the mists aswirling 
and see if they have got a line on a fella named rod serling.
set him down and warm his bones and enquire so politely
about his health and what he sees in the zone on TV nightly
reruns reruns reruns, ozzie desi lucy, beaver follows sky king
so much time who can be choosy
chorus
black and white, no blue no red,
there’s no color in the zone when you’re dead
black and white, no yellow no green
we all live forever on the silver screen.

press the button, change the channel, what is real distinguished panel
doctors lawyers cops and robbers, cowboys indians knowing fathers
endless talk show sitcom movie, of your fate it does behoove me
to forewarn you, to advise, less your demise should surprise
no hot flames no sulphur pits, repeats are the worst of it.
chorus 
black and white, not blue no red,
there’s no color in the zone when you’re dead
black and white, no yellow no green
the dead live forever on the TV screen.
they’re timeless lights and shadow
live forever though they’re cancelled
change the station change the view
i think they died from deja vu.

Twilight Zone - 2.2.2

Twilight Zone

The King was on his horse
His castle far away
He attacked his foe with force
And left them where they lay
They died without a hope
Of seeing their wives again
Oh yes, the king was proud
As he rode on through the rain
He knew that blood was never spilt in vain

And all of his people feared for what they had
For the King would take it from them
And they knew it made him glad
To see the hate in their eyes
As he rode past them day and night
He loved to see the sight
Of death in their lies
And hands poised on knives

Then one night, 
The King was in his bed
And a peasant came
Held a knife to his head
And waited till he cried
“Don’t let the things I’ve done
Hold too much sway
I’ll be a better man
I’ll let you have your way”
But the peasant slit his throat
Chuckling at his gargled pain
For like the King, he knew
Blood was never spilt in vain
And cursing King and name
He threw the body into the rain

King's Blood

Desperation

Well hello. What else can happen today to brighten our world? Maybe listening to some music? Maybe not? In essence, the song title: Nothing To Lose speaks to this. Today might improve after I post this song, and you get a chance to listen to it. How could it make the day any worse? (The song is not THAT bad.Hahaha). But enough of that. I learned something while recording this… sometimes, I need to lighten up on how much I press down on the slide (slide guitar). Give the string(s) a chance to ring out. Years ago, when I began to play slide, I could hear that because I occasionally would bump into the frets/fretboard with the slide, oops…. But in the same breath it is OK to lay into the slide when necessary, especially when playing chords. I also learned something about singing. My voice has so many permutations, not all good, and often the tenor and tone of it can easily change during a song… hence the choruses in the second half of this song. Haha. In a tender moment of a song my voice might go from baritone to soprano, which is hilarious to me. So I will explore different expressions of voice within the same vocal range and see how that goes. Any suggestions? I tried to add some homemade percussion…Big fail, so I’ll keep working on that. Anyway, hope you like this song. In other news, I have been able to do quite a bit of gardening lately. It can still snow here, so I only put hardy plants out. I transplanted a bunch of lettuce, kale, broccoli and cabbage seedlings I grew from seed. The lettuce seed came from seed I collected from bolted lettuce plants from last season. Ever see bolted lettuce? It can grow over 3 feet tall. Impressive. Also planted a mess of snow peas as they say. How’s things going with you? Hope all is well. Mark

THE VERY DARING PIPER (Lyrics) Song for Stella

Valley's Boy

I'm just a Valley's boy at the heart
Wind me up and I'll play my part
Son of a couple who couldn't get a start
Always loved the underdog
Never felt a part

The dirty shanty lives of the working class
The Rhondda Fawr and the Rhondda Fach
Washing the working souls down the fractured hills
Into the River Taff the Rhondda's running still

Sandstone pavements and rusted steel
Cold wet wind on my down at heel
Pick your future boy, forget your dreams
Mining our lives like those deep coal seams

Valley's Boy

Perhaps this was always like this

Foreshadowed at the start
No Hobgoblins to blame
Enough to squash your heart
Threshold Juniper 
Nature's mean
Purify me please
