Rode To The Fairytale Castle

Found this on the proverbial cutting room floor when digging through files for the remaster project.

It’s a bit rough round the edges but I thought I’d throw it out there. 

The mission audio is Apollo control reading a selection of news headlines to the crew whilst they are on the outward leg of the journey. A bit of banality during an historic event.

Help me see

In a world blurred by noise and distraction, Three Photons offers clarity with "Help Me See"—a soul-searching ballad steeped in analog warmth and emotional depth.

Help me see

I can’t see the stars tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
I can’t see the stars tonight

I can’t find the words tonight
Written down or in my mind
I can’ t find the words tonight

I can’t see the stars tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
I can’t see the stars tonight


Shining down or in your eyes 
I can’t see the stars tonight
Help me see 
Help me see the stars tonight

I could live a simple life
Slow it down or take a flight
I could live a simple life
I could live a simple life

I can’t see the see stars tonight
I can’t find the words tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
Help me see the stars tonight

I can’t find the words tonight
Written down or in my mind
I can’t find the words I like……

Help me see

Galileo's telescopic observation of the moons of Jupiter orbiting the planet  was a black swan moment for the Church's earth centred view of the universe. As ever those whose long held beliefs were challenged by the facts did not react well. Plus ca change.

But Still it Moves (John Stone)

Galileo Galileii stood before the court 
Accused of breaking sacred law
In what he said and what he thought  
They told him God had made us the centre of all things
The earth stood still, The universe
revolves around in perfect spheres and rings.

But he had seen the moons of Jupiter
Sailing through the void
And knew at once religious law
Had forever been destroyed
The power of observation
Proved the earth went round the sun
And we were not the centre of all things
as we were told we had become.

The Bishops and the Cardinals
Were outraged by the thought
That places held by God and man
Were not what they had always taught,
They forced a recantation of his controversial views
But as they dragged him from the court
He cried,“But still it moves”

Still it moves, Still it moves
But still the earth goes round the sun
Whatever you can make me say
A truth once known can’t be undone
So forget your old religions
And new ideologies
Truth is truth and only truth will I let speak to me
And still it moves… 

We’d like to think we’ve come some way 
Since those unenlightened days
But look around and count the things 
you know but are afraid to say 
In pain of media pile-ons 
And News that’s always fake 
And Those who are inclined to say 
That hate is truth and truth is hate 

It may not seem important  
But it still seems plain to me 
If you’re not allowed to speak the truth 
Then you’re no longer free 
So when they try to shout you down 
With the crazy things they say 
Remember Galileo
When he once dared to say
Still it moves…

But Still It Moves

"New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings." - Lao Tzu

"It's strange, but true, that the most important turning points of life often come at the most unexpected times and in the most unexpected ways." - Napoleon Hill

A weekend improvisation, dedicated to the turning points in our lives that often show up unexpectedly, after heavy, difficult times.  As you listen to this piece, you will hear the "turning point" emerge in the music around the 3:22 mark.

A companion piece to "Starting Again."

The Turning Point

Not everyone is on holiday, even in the heat of summer. Some still work while the city falls silent, stretched under a long, empty day. I can’t tell if the man expects something to happen; to me, it feels like nothing will happen today either. Anyway, everything's good.

This is the third in a series of eight easy, acoustic, rather short, and deliberately inconclusive tracks, assembled by combining new ideas with reworked older material, adding parts and sounds along the way.

Part 2 here: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/in-case-nothing-happens-part-2-dawn

Part 6 here: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/in-case-nothing-happens-part-6-dawn-again

Composed by Michele Ansani (2020-2025 - this is a remake with a lighter sound and standard guitar tuning of a piece I already posted last year: https://soundcloud.com/michele-ansani/imperfections).

Dear Mr. Dream Maker

Sinfonie Nr.2 "EGGERT" – Satz Nr.5

Copyright Nat Daniels 2015
For Maïa...

I never released this song as it was written for my Daughter and private at the time..  She's much older now, but I hope this will serve as a lullaby for those who need it xx. Written with so much love for you my Maïa...  So much Love. 

Lyrics:

Maia my bee on her flying machine
Flying so high like a circus trapeze
Dashing and daring ‘bove clouds and ‘bove seas,
Braving the skies with the greatest of ease.

Riding her horse as she lasso’s the moon,
Scooping up stars as she’s singing  a tune,
Giddy up cowgirl, the suns’ rising soon,
Stardust a trail as you’re passing the moon! 

Round up the planets and sing to stars,
Sail on the ocean’s of Pluto and mars,
Taming the lions and tigers and bears, 
Brave new adventures that carry you there.

Brave like an Angel and kind like dove,
Dancing and singing and giving your love,
May your dreams always be wondrous and free
and know that you’re Loved, little Maia our bee.

Maia Bee On Her Flying Machine

Lucie
En l’enlaçant sans m’en lasser
Lucie
Ne cessait jamais de changer
Je connais quelques-unes des personnes qui l’habitent


Lucie
Les nuits de pleine lune
Lucie
Doucement devient louve
Sa bouche fine, ses yeux verts me guettent comme une proie


Pourtant j’n'ai pas peur
Quand elle attend que j’ bouge
Son regard cherche à percer mes secrets
Pendant qu’ le temps s'arrête


Lucie
Le matin m'attire
Mais celle-ci
Celle-ci me parle raison
Je connais quelques-unes des personnes qui l'habitent


Sur ces nuits de pleine lune
Que nous sommes nous dit qui ne soit futile
Nos sens ont pris le dessus
Plus jamais en dessous de tout je ne me sentirais


Lucie
En l’enlaçant sans m’en lasser
Lucie
Ne cessait jamais de changer
Je connais quelques-unes des personnes qui l’habitent
