The influence

J-Dormant Volcano

Cette chanson parle des nuits blanches que les accidents de la vie nous font passer . Quand notre lit devient trop petit pour ces sombres pensées et que l'on va dehors pour essayer d'oublier...
This song is about the sleepless nights that life's accidents cause us to endure. When our bed becomes too small for these dark thoughts and we go outside to try to forget...

Quand on marche la nuit
On change le décor
De ces choses que l'on fuit
Mais elles s'accrochent fort
Le jour est endormi
Les heureux rêvent encore
Quand on marche à l'ennui
On se traîne du corps
Quand on marche la nuit
Sous des lumières fanées , blessées
Faux soleils prisonniers
Notre ombre est une amie
Un peu désorientée
Et comme un chien elle nous suit
Fidèle et obligée
Si elle avait une vie
Elle resterait couchée
Quand on marche la nuit
On voit mieux les silences
On contemple les bruits
On regarde leur danse
Un instant on oublie
Notre désespérance
Que le jour que l'on fuit
Réveille nos souffrances
Quand on marche la nuit
On entend nos pensées (bis )
Elles sont comme des cris
Qu'on retient prisonniers
Et la Lune en amie
Paraît nous écouter
Peut être qu'elle luit
Pour mieux nous consoler
Quand on marche la nuit
On croise le hasard
Il nous parle de lui
Mais c'est bien notre histoire
On se voit dans sa vie
Comme dans un miroir
On connaît tout de lui
Il a notre mémoire
Quand on marche la nuit
Au rythme des pourquoi ( bis) 
Que nos pas ont suivi
Des traces d'autrefois
On laisse démuni (bis )
Quelqu'un qui pleurera
Qui marchera la nuit
Les jours où ça va pas

When we walk at night
We change the scenery
Of those things we flee from
But they cling on tightly
The day is asleep
The happy ones still dream
When we walk in boredom
We drag our bodies along
When we walk at night
Under faded, wounded lights
False suns held captive
Our shadow is a friend
A little disoriented
And like a dog, it follows us
Faithful and obliged
If it had a life
It would stay lying down
When we walk at night
We see the silences better
We contemplate the noises
We watch their dance
For a moment, we forget
Our despair
That the day we flee from
Awakens our suffering
When we walk at night
We hear our thoughts (repeat)
They are like cries
That we hold captive
And the Moon, our friend
Seems to listen to us
Perhaps it shines
To better console us
When we walk at night
We encounter chance
It tells us about itself
But it is really our story
We see ourselves in its life
As in a mirror
We know everything about it
It has our memory
When we walk at night
To the rhythm of the whys (repeat) 
That our steps have followed
Traces of the past
We leave helpless (repeat)
Someone who will cry
Who will walk at night
On days when things aren't going well

Make Peace with Love

Good memories heal
All memories teach
Food for our souls
Greater good we can reach
Measured discern
Spread butter for spirit
Make peace with love
Listen
You'll hear it

'Aint no point in crying over spilled milk
Save your worries and woes
For survivalist silk
Concern is control flying with wings of dove
Our chance is to change
And make peace with love

Make peace with love

Just call on your soul
Talk to your spirit
Human quality control
Listen
You'll hear it
Clean up together
Spread the load
Make peace with love
Historic future is told

Make peace with love

The gauge is your family
Great spirits at rest
Potential in code
DNA left of best
Biological verve
Inside fits like a glove
All known moral ground
Make peace with love

Make peace with love

Listen to caring
Listen to honest
Hear those who qualify
Good truths upon us
Hone wonderful answers
And feed that new known
Make peace with love
Light of Lennon is known

Make peace with love
Make peace we own
Light of Lennon is known
Make peace with love
Peace we own

All life is precious
Systematic and synced
Let's protect it and grow
Good future of think
Locked to our moment
No below
No above
No pedastal proud
Make peace with love

Make peace with love
Make peace with love
Make peace we know
Light of Lennon we own
Peace we own
Make peace with love
Inside fits like a glove
Make peace your own
Make peace we own
Make peace we own
Peace we own
Make peace with love

LOST VILLAGE


this song  is partly a tribute to actor, singer, dancer, artist, and author Russ Tamblyn, who turns 91 in December.
I wrote the song around the time I retired. So  along with references to  Russ and childhood memory, there are veiled allusions to this strange  new exciting but a bit unsettling life circumstance in the lyric.
As per Russ 
He danced and acted in Westside story  and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers most famously but was in a bunch of movies in the 50s and 60s.. and ....my favourite as a kid was the War of the Gargantuas, which  for Russ was a creative low point ..but  it got him to Japan
opening clips from WotG...the middle and end clips from his movie Highschool Confidential

PS The line in the last verse Words stuck in my throat..lifted from the song The Words Get Stuck in My Throat From the movie War of the Gargantuas...sung by the wonderful Kipp Hamilton who has to contend with a Gargantua groupie..dont worry she survived....clip of the song in the movie is here

Devo did a cover of it years later


Russ Tamblyn

I'll get a Tokyo life                             
Say some words off the script          
Monsters in play                                
Career gone adrift                               
I can make it in spite                          
Of the way they dub my lines              

I'll sail to the East
Maybe take me a bride
Dance out regret
Act up with pride
Let me do it 
Let me do it
Let me do it brother, what do you say?
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day

I wanna be cool
I’d like to be strong
A fighter who dances
A singer of songs
Add some rhythm 
Put some muscle on these rhymes 

The streets of the West
I'll be taking a side
Living forever 
This world’s opened wide
Let me do it
Let me do it
Let me do it, what do you say?
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day 

In 1970                                         
I saw him on the TV screen        
With those creatures, one             
brown, one green                         
My Gargantuan celluloid dream   

They said I could bail    
I’d much rather swim
Head above water
Life on a whim
I can make it in spite
Of their doubts and their goodbyes

Words stuck in my throat
What's left to say?
There's only myself
I can't stay away
Let me do it 
Let me do it
Permit me if I may
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day
My little boy brain wants to be Russ Tamblyn for a day

The whole idea of embracing melancholic music as a package for me is an incredible therapy and has been since I was a very young. Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber, Inspector Morse Theme Tune by Barrington Pheloung and Gabriel's Oboe by Ennio Morricone would be the three big examples that come to mind. The first two in particular... Then a more popular example from that period of my life would be All by Myself by Eric Carmen. That sits up there as a brave wtf song that's just incredible in it's vulnerability. More recently Id put Exit Music for a Film by Radiohead in a similar beautiful mind bending melancholic box.

The song image is a picture of a sunrise over my back wall and in the foreground is the micro world we never really see. It's moss growing on the wall and for me it represents visually, perspective is everything. We can't see the world like an ant does unless we get in amongst the weeds and get close to look. Even then it's difficult to share the same point of view an ant has.
I guess that can be an analogy of where your soul goes in the land of melancholic music. Although it can invoke feelings of sadness I think that's therapeutic for our overall beings. I think maybe psychologically, like a poem can do also, we are reflecting our emotion with something words as plain language cannot fully explain but where sound and poetry maybe can do a better job of helping them materialise for you. So they become a solidarity of sorts for those hard to understand feelings we all feel from time to time in our lives. A safe reference that maybe forces you to feel them instead of oppressing the feelings

Melancholy of Mystery

Good meandering mind
Knead this mystery
Warm sound sine waves
To cool great history

Sad for some
Tranquil for this one
An aide to not fear pain
Through music and sum

From mountain flutes of finest native
To slow bent strings move contemplative

Dawn drama drowns a mind afraid
Good mind prepared through sounds that save

These sounds are sage
'Fill in true meaning
Soothe honest zen
With deep thought streaming

Heart pounds a rush
Thrill of uncertain
New found feeling
On fear we pull a curtain

Good meandering mind
Knead this mystery
Warm sound sine waves
To cool great history

Sad for some
Tranquil for this one
An aide to not fear pain
Through music and sum

Dinnseanchas of history
Melancholy of mystery
Filling true meaning
Mellifluous streaming
